LiftMaster CAPXS Smart Video Intercom-S — 5-Inch Touchscreen, myQ Community
The LiftMaster CAPXS Smart Video Intercom-S combines a compact 5-inch touchscreen with visitor video and two-way audio for a properly configured building or gate entry. It gives residents a way to review visitors and manage access through myQ Community, while property administrators manage the connected system. This is an access-control device, not a door lock or gate operator. A monthly myQ Community subscription is required, and the installation also needs suitable power, network connectivity and compatible entry hardware.
Compatibility — Models, Versions and Exclusions
| Model or selection point | Compatibility requirement |
|---|---|
| Small buildings and residential gate entries | Select against the entry layout, network and required access-control functions. |
| myQ Community | An account, subscription and system setup are required; confirm the selected plan and resident features. |
| Door strike or gate control | The controlled hardware and electrical interface must be selected for the actual opening. |
| KPW250 wireless keypad | A different access method without this video-intercom experience; not a substitute CAPXS component. |
Plan the Complete Entry System
The intercom provides a visitor interface, but the controlled opening still needs the equipment that physically secures or moves it. A building-door application may require a suitable electronic strike or other approved locking arrangement. A vehicular gate needs its own operator and protection devices. Have the installer confirm the interface rather than assuming any lock or motor can be connected directly.
Before purchasing, identify how the property will connect to the network, who will administer access and which residents will receive invitations. Confirm current subscription terms and the features included in the chosen plan. Video recording, retention and account permissions should be checked with the service provider; a hardware purchase alone does not establish unlimited storage or free ongoing service.

Before Ordering
- Identify the door or gate, the existing controller and the required visitor workflow.

Package Contents and Separate Requirements
This SKU identifies the CAPXS intercom. Do not assume the order includes an electronic strike, gate operator, network service, subscription, pedestal or every site mounting component. Confirm the current carton and mounting accessories before ordering. Replacing an older intercom may require changes to wiring and entry hardware even when the available wall space appears sufficient.
Safety Warnings — Read Before Installation or Service
- WARNING: Incorrect access-control wiring can create unsafe door or gate operation. Use a qualified installer familiar with the controlled opening.
- Isolate power before wiring. Do not connect a lock or operator output without confirming the approved electrical interface.
- An intercom does not detect entrapment and does not replace gate photo eyes, safety edges or required emergency-egress provisions.
- Test visitor calls, authorized release and the opening’s independent safety functions before normal use.
Related Products and Important Differences
- KPW250 wireless keypad — compare a keypad-based access option when video communication is not required; verify the receiving operator separately.
- LMRRUL monitored photo eye — a separate protection device for approved gate operators; CAPXS does not perform its sensing function.
