Customize Your Panel 
and System

You can easily customize the appearance and behavior of your 

control panel as well as how the entire Vivint Smart Home system 
interacts and communicates. Features and settings you can adjust 
to your own preference include display brightness and timeout, 
volume (separately for the panel, doorbell speaker, and other 
sounds), sensor-specific chimes, voice alerts, and more.

 

Press the 

Menu button > Settings > and then Panel.

 

Configure and control your smart devices

As mentioned on the 

Smart Home Automation and Control

 page, you can 

configure each of your system's connected devices and how they interact with 
each other, including video cameras, doorbells, door locks, sensors, lighting 
controls, thermostats, and more (depending on your installation). You can also 
use predefined and custom rules to optimize system-wide operation to best 
meet your specific needs.

Access and configure your devices from the panel or with the Vivint apps.
