2GIG - GoControl Panel Battery Replacement

The 2GIG GoControl requires a special battery pack available for purchase from the manufacturer.

Note: The standard backup battery that is included with all 2GIG Control Panels does not support UL 985 installations. To comply with the secondary supply requirement in UL 985: Household Fire Warning System Units, install the 2GIG Console Battery Pack (This is a high‐capacity 2600mAh Ni‐MH replacement battery pack).

To replace the battery in a 2GIG GoControl:

If desired, put the system in test mode with the monitoring station before proceeding. 

  1. Disarm the panel.
  2. Power off the panel. 
    1. Unplug the AC adapter.
    2. Unscrew the top to remove the back cover.
