Does alarm notify you, when triggered, any other way than siren(by phone etc) When triggered can it be disarmed remotely, away from home? Thanks!

No unfortunately it does not and I have set off the alarm so many times that the neighbors no longer are responding to it siren, so I had to go with a national monitoring company.. To make this alarm effective, it needs to be used in the environments like a collage dorm as it was first was introduced... Or in a apartment building setting where it would make enough noise, that neighbors would call police complaining of the noise and send officers to investigate its origin...!

Short answer - no to all. Other versions dial out. Not sure about remote cancel.

No it does not have a remote access. There is a more expensive version of it that will. Also, the system works great. I can leave for 6-8 weeks at a time and I have had no false alarms. It is a great alarm for the price.

It will probably disarm itself in any conditions. Don't waste your time with these inexpensive alarms. One thing is having an alarm not go off if someone tries to break in your car, another is having your alarm unlock your doors for them, which is what this one does.

No. If chime is turned on, the control panel will beep. If the alarm is armed then the siren will go off. But the contact itself makes no sound.

Yes. The alarm is triggered when a sensor changes state. So if you leave it open and don't touch it, it will not trigger the alarm

The control pad siren is independent of the other sirens so the answer is yes. In fact, if someone is in my home, I don't want the control pad siren to go off because it will lead the person to the control pad.

Pressing and holding ARM and DISARM together for about 2 secs triggered the loud siren alarm, (equivalent to panic button on car keys or other alarm systems), but one major disadvantage is that remote does not send radio signals, i.e you have to point the remote at the alarm - which may not be always practical in situations where you want this. Suppose the alarm is in downstairs living room, you are in upstairs bedroom and you sense someone breaking in, you will have to get down, go close to the alarm, point at it and press both buttons with two fingers - think if that would be practical for you.

The alarm emits a light beep when activated (turned on) and the same when deactivating it. When it detects movement it emits a LOUD alarm that will awake anyone in the house. I used it to detect movementOf a walker used by the patient. I leaned it against the walker so that it fall over if the walker was moved. It worked like a charm.....

YES my alarm went of a couple of times and I disarmed it from my home phone.

The sensor can't be turned off. Once set and the alarm is turned on, if the two pieces are moved away from each other the alarm will sound.If an attempt is made to open the sensor it would be moved away from its counterpart which would fire the alarm.As a side note, we use ours for a sleep walking child who has left the house and it works perfectly.

I have not done that , but it makes sense to me, that when the wall mount is active, so is the siren.( it is connected directly by speaker wire), When I forget to disable, it goes off every time. I have to rush to disable, so the neighbors don't call the police ! Good luck, hope this helps. RWM

Yes, you can. If you you have your number on the dial list, it will dial you and you can turn off the alarm and listen in. The alarm will then go off if retriggered. The S02 manual which you can download gives you details on all this.

I believe that may be complicated because there is a pre-alarm which occurs a few minutes before the actual alarm time. You would have to set something beyond 10 minutes and then ignore the pre-alarm. Perhaps someone else out there has figured a way to disarm the pre-alarm feature. This alarm works well, but I had to stop using it. It was so loud, my dog threated to leave home.

This alarm will NOT alert you that it has been set off... it's only $16... it's just an alarm. If you want something that will alert you in any way, it's going to cost quite a bit more money I'd imagine.

By silencing the alarm you are in effect turning them off. The instructions walk you thru the process (holding certain buttons til dashes appear). You should get no movement or sound for those alarms(3 and 4). Hope this helped. It's been a life saver for me. Mom is fixated on her pills, and is always trying to get at them. As a matter of fact, I just ordered a second dispenser.

It sends an email alert to your smartphone with a pic. I found a lag between when the alarm was triggered and being alerted, therefore I use an inexpensive ' driveway alarm' with multiple sensors with separate sounds to be alerted and where. Hope that helps.

it is a motion sensor, once you put your telephone numbers it will cal you and leave a message. the sound alarm can bve turned off. but if you have a pet it is not a good idea. get a IPcam to monitor home

There is a "home" function, that will sound, without activating the external, optional, siren. The built in tone is not very loud, if you were sleeping a few rooms over, it would not wake you. This is why the external siren is a must have, it is quite a bit louder, but honestly, for forty bucks, it is not very impressive, decible wise. This unit is only effective to alert people in the house, as far as hearing anything outside the home, it is not loud enough to scare off an intruder. If I was to buy again, I would look elsewhere.
