Description
The Honeywell Lyric OC1, also called the IPCAM-WOC1, is an outdoor high-definition security camera designed for use with the Total Connect 2.0 Interactive Service. This is a highly advanced camera that is designed to capture crystal-clear 1080P HD video in an outdoor environment. It can be easily mounted on any wall or ceiling in order to provide it with a complete view of the surrounding area. The device features night vision, with an IR range of up to 65 feet away. This allows it to properly capture any important event, even in the darkest of settings. Overall, the Lyric OC1 is an excellent choice for any Honeywell user who needs a tough, dependable security camera for an outdoor environment.
The camera uses video analytics to detect movement, and it will start recording as soon as sufficient video pixel changes occur in one of the device's adjustable alert zones. After the camera has finished recording, the clip will then be made available on the Total Connect Service. Total Connect will also send a push notification to the user so that they can quickly view the camera's live feed. A user can also access Total Connect at any time to view the camera and to adjust any of its settings and configurations. This can be done from a web browser or through the Total Connect Mobile App.
The device offers a diagonal viewing angle of up to 117 degrees, and it features digital zoom up to 10x. It records at 30 frames per second for seamless and clear recordings. The device communicates over WIFI at 2.4 GHz, making it accessible with the Honeywell Lyric App. An included LED light indicates status changes for the camera, including when IR night vision has been activated and when the camera has connected to a WIFI network.
Please note that the Lyric OC1 does not include a built-in microphone, and it does not support audio recording in any way. For that reason, users who require a camera with audio capabilities should choose a different security camera for their setup.

The Honeywell IPCAM-WOC1 is an outdoor IP camera designed for use with Total Connect 2.0. It is a 1080p HD camera that uses video analytics to determine when to record clips. The device is easy to mount to a wall or ceiling, and it uses IR night vision to capture activity from up to 65 feet away in the dark. Some downsides to the camera include its lack of a microphone and the fact that it can only be used on a 2.4 GHz WIFI network. Still, it is a very robust and powerful camera that is easy to use. We give it 5 Stars.
There are many positive aspects regarding the Honeywell IPCAM-WOC1. Its recordings are crystal clear, and they certainly match the advertised 1080p quality. In fact, we use this camera outside the Alarm Grid office! And since our office is located in South Florida, we can definitely say it's weather-resistant. The camera's IR night vision is quite powerful, as it reliably detects activity from up to 65 feet away. We tested this camera in the dark, and it worked great. The video analytics feature is effective in triggering recordings, and its settings can be adjusted from TC2. We also found that the camera was very easy to install, and we would certainly recommend it for any home or business with a Honeywell System that uses Total Connect 2.0.
There are some downsides to the camera. It lacks a microphone, and it cannot be used for audio recording in any manner. This was likely an intentional design, as a microphone may result in unneeded clips due to cars passing in the area. Still, it would have been a nice feature to have, as you could have just disabled audio-triggered video recordings. The camera also cannot be used on a 5 GHz WIFI network, as it is for 2.4 GHz only.
Overall, we like the IPCAM-WOC1 a lot. We give it a 5 Star rating.
Good: 1080p, Weather-Resistant, IR Night Vision, Easy to Install, Effective Motion Detection using Video Analytics
Bad: No Microphone, 2.4 GHz Networks Only
Bottom Line: 5 Stars
