Will this activate other battery powered ONELINK battery operated alarms?

I am not sure but I doubt it. This is a hardwired alarm that will activate other alarms that are hardwired with it.

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.

Wayne. Swann has some other non-coded door alarms that aound immediately when the door is opened. I bought a programmed one and a non programmed one for my G/F's house.

Yes it does. It will remember the last settings you set up. If you want the alarms to work, you just have to enable them each time.

I doubt it also since the 3120B uses a physical wire to link with other alarms and there is wires on the SCO501CN. Maybe there is another device that connects wired and wireless units?

Both. The alarms are AC powered with battery backup. You can optionally link each alarm to trigger multiple alarms when one goes off...if the house has been wired with the extra wire for that ability.

I think you have to activate the alarm for it to function. I did not activate the alarm. It is easy to tell when the power supply kicks in on battery power because of the increased hum from the inverter. There may be a bell that dings once when the inverter is active.

No. The alarm comes with a special electrical adapter that does not fit into an AC outlet. The wiring is for both power and inter-connecting several alarms together so that if one goes off, they all go off. I believe a virtually identical battery powered alarm is available for stand-alone use. Hope this helps.

You can have Onelink detectors that beep on the same mesh network as detectors that talk. I found it 'dumbs down' the whole system. I had a detector report a low battery which sends the signal around the network. Of course, this happened in the middle of the night and the beeping detectors didn't handle it well. My best guess is that they kept repeating the signal and they are only capable of signalling fire. I started running around to each detector pulling the battery tray and they wouldn't stop until I pulled the battery on the last beeping detector. The beeping detectors have found a new home in a cupboard without batteries.

No. An No-one has wirelessly interconnected detectors that use both technologies individually in separate detectors. First Alert OneLink uses photo-electric technology, and has no ionization detectors. The best you can do with wireless technology at this time is to put one each of the Kidde and First Alert detectors in each room.

I believe so. It has the capacity to have an alarm go off four times a day. I was able to void two alarms and have it sound every 12 hrs.

No. It has a pin that when pulled will trigger the alarm. Otherwise than that the alarm will not go off.

Mine is a an old ADT system and it works. The piece that goes into the door is only a magnet. It's pretty simple technology. When it moves away from the wired part it activates the Alarm. I think would work on most alarms.

Yes, you can set four different alarms. And they will stay set unless you need to change them.

You'll need to contact the manufacturer for an answer to this question. The model that I own only has an alarm on the main control module which is attached to my router in the basement.

You can, but I not sure why. These are hardwired detectors designed to sound an alarm tone on all compatible detectors on that circuit. Seems you might be as well off with a battery operated detector.

According to Alarm.com site the other devices they support are Z-Wave so this should work as well. Z-Wave is pretty universal
