The EliteControl Infinity Series: New Zealand's Most Versatile Alarm Platform
The EliteControl Infinity Series — manufactured and designed in New Zealand by AAP — is a modular security and control platform engineered for residential, commercial, and light industrial applications. Built around the EC security and control panel, the Infinity Series integrates alarm, access control, and home automation into a single, scalable system. Whether you are specifying a straightforward residential kit or a multi-zone commercial installation with wireless sensors, access control modules, and remote app management, the EC platform delivers the flexibility to match any project requirement.
This guide covers every EliteControl alarm kit and panel configuration available at Essential Security Supplies NZ, including full specifications, kit inclusions, and guidance on selecting the right configuration for your installation.

Why the EliteControl Infinity Series Stands Apart
The Infinity Series is built on a fully modular architecture, meaning installers can start with a base kit and expand the system over time without replacing core hardware. This approach reduces upfront cost, eliminates unnecessary hardware on smaller sites, and future-proofs the installation as client requirements evolve.
Key platform capabilities include:
- Up to 248 inputs, 32 outputs, 32 keypads, and 32 partitions
- 32 time schedules, 32 access levels, 2,000 users, and 10,000 event log
- Integrated access control via EC-A2 door control modules
- Fire panel integration
- Home automation system integration
- Infinity long-range wireless (up to 500m range, up to 24 wireless sensors per EC panel)
- EliteCloud smartphone app for remote monitoring and control (optional EC-IoT module)
- Ethernet connectivity (optional plug-in module)
- 2/5 year warranty (panel/kit dependent)
- New Zealand designed and manufactured

Includes:
- EC security and control panel
- EC-PLAS CAB enclosure with 16VAC 1.4A supply
- 2K2, 4K7 and 8K2 resistor and screw pack

---Choosing the Right EliteControl Kit for Your Installation
Selecting the correct EC kit configuration comes down to four factors: whether the installation is wired or wireless, the preferred keypad style, whether sensors and sounders are being sourced separately, and the level of remote monitoring and access control required.
---Wired vs Wireless Installations
For new builds or installations where cable runs are practical, the EC-KIT LCD (with 100m cable) is the most complete starting point. For retrofits, heritage buildings, or sites where running cable is impractical, the EC-KIT LCD NC paired with Infinity long-range wireless sensors eliminates the need for cable runs entirely — with up to 500m wireless range and up to 5-year battery life on wireless devices.
---Keypad Selection
The EC-LCD keypad suits most residential and commercial installations with its full English text display and slim profile. For premium residential fitouts where a modern touch interface is preferred, the EC-KIT KP B with the black slimline touch keypad delivers a contemporary aesthetic. For installations requiring credential-based arming, the EC-LCD-PROX adds a built-in proximity reader to the standard LCD keypad.
---Panel-Only vs Full Kit
Installers specifying sensors and sounders to match specific site requirements — or upgrading an existing installation — should consider the EC-PLAS LCD or EC-PLAS panel-only configurations. These provide the core control panel and enclosure without bundled peripherals, giving full flexibility over component selection.
---Remote Monitoring and Access Control
For installations requiring remote monitoring, the EC-IoT module adds EliteCloud smartphone app connectivity to any EC system — supporting up to 100 app users per site and 10 sites per user. For sites requiring door access control, the EC-A2 REX module integrates two-door access control directly into the EC platform, with up to 16 modules per panel.
---Frequently Asked Questions
