Why is monitor different to a ells-only alarm system?
The system offers much more protection than traditional ‘bells-only’ alarm systems, by providing intelligent real-time information about the status of your home. Movement sensors and smoke detectors communicate with the monitoring service through the control panel, sending you an immediate notification of an emergency. When in the home, you and your family will also have the ability to call for assistance by sending a panic signal using the remote control key fob. When activated the monitor system will make a loud noise from the control panel to deter an opportunist thief. However, it goes one step further by putting you in control of what happens next. An intruder or burglar will not know who has been alerted by their presence and how close that person may be. You can nominate up to five people and specify the order that you want them to be notified of an alert. If the system fails to notify a contact it will continue until contact is made with one of the people you have chosen.
