First we make sure all the doors & windows are closed.
Then the system is set (armed) with a command or code.
|
|
The system arms and gives a delay to allow you to exit.
This is called the exit delay.
|
|
When you return and open the door to enter,
a sounder reminds you to disarm the system.
The entry delay has now started.
|
|
Enter your code in time and the system disarms.
Well done !

But what about if:
- ...a door or window can't be closed ?
- ...an alarm sensor triggers the alarm while I'm gone ?
- .. I don't disarm the alarm in time ?
- ...I don't have a phone land line ?
- ...if power to my system goes out ?
- ...If a wireless sensors battery goes out ?
| No problem:
- you can easily bypass or force arm until it can be fixed.
- The system will reset and automatically re-arm.
- It's ok. The monitoring will call you for a secret password before sending the police.
- We have GSM monitoring.
- Our systems have a battery backup.
- Our systems alert you when batteries get low, with plenty of time to replace them.
