IS THIS GOOD FOR AN ALARM SERVICE

I replaced the original battery with this unit about a year ago and it has been working fine with no issues.

Dear John, Thank you for contacting us. If you decide not to get the monitoring service, you will still get all of the alarm features. Nothing is lost. If you have any other questions, let me know. Sincerely, Andrew

The alarm needs to be connected to a regular land line jack (RJ11), not wireless, not ethernet. So, if you have VoIP and you can plug a regular telephone into the jack (such as Ooma, MagicJack, and most cable company VoIP) then you should be OK. But again, the alarm needs to be plugged into the telephone jack on whatever your VoIP device is.

I would think so. It worked just fine for me. We have multiple smoke alarms as well.

I don't know but what I can say about that piece of junk is: It developed a problem after about a month Cobys warranty wanted me to ship it to them for service at my expense (which is normal) BUT they wanted me to send them money for the return ship to me. AIN"T GONNA HAPPEN! I sent it back to Amazon for refund and bought another brank thats been fine for, I think 1-1/2 to 2-1/2 years now. I'm sorry but I don't use it for an alarm so can't comment on that.

If you are going through Alarm.com or one of their dealers you should be able to. That's what I have and it works great.

Yes. Not something you should take on yourself. A MECP certified technician is a must when doing this. I had mine done for 200, plus the cost of alarm.

yes, it has an alarm. you can go the menu/organiser. it is on top of the list.

Yes.... The question you should be asking is what kind of alarm is installed already? and is the alarm compatible? This PA system is an "add on" to your alarm system.

Yes, although I thought the directions were a little confusing at first. This clock is a tidy little item on the bedside table, but to tell the truth, I don't use it for an alarm anymore. If you have a smartphone, subscribe to Pandora radio and use the alarm feature there. Wake up to the music of your choice.

It should not be a problem. The alarm only makes outgoing calls and only if the sensor is triggered by a power outage or a cold temperature. It would be very unlikely an incoming call that your answering machine would pick up would occur at the same time that the alarm would be making an outgoing call. If you get a call from the alarm it will ask you to press a key to acknowledge the alert and avoid repeated calls about the alert.

Yes it will work fine as I have one on mine.As long as you buy the base unit for letting you know somebody has entered or left the alarm part of it

Had mine installed at an auto shop. Note, this unit only opens and closes the doors. It is not an alarm system with siren, immobilizer etc.

This is exactly what I use it for - a utility room water alarm. By itself, it will sound an alarm. If you get the Ideal Security Base Unit (which I did), it will send a signal to this unit causing the unit to call you or any other designated phone number in case you are not home to let you know the sensor has been activated by water.

It will work as a door monitor. There is a beam of red light emitted from the unit. (Just like an overhead garage door). If anything interrupts the beam, it will sound an alert on the receiver unit. We clipped the receiver unit to our belt so that we could be in other parts of the house. If our patient (elderly, and a fall risk), got out of bed, the alarm would sound. The unit itself (the part with the beam), does not sound an alarm, just the receiver unit.

If it has an alarm then I have not used it. It is a bluetooth iPod speaker system. I use it for music; and excellent sound system!William Boon

You can not alarm the system if there is an open window/door unless you by pass that station. I't will give you a trouble light (yellow). You'll need to talk to your alarm company to do that.
