Cell Phone Messages
Your system may be programmed at installation to send a variety
of messages to your personal cell phone.
The message option uses your security system’s reporting capability
to send reports using a cell phone number in much the same way
as someone sending an email would do. You can receive reports of
alarms, troubles, or system arming and disarming and know at a
glance your system status. See Appendix F for more information.

be sent to the security system to perform basic user operations.

actions can be performed: Arm/Disarm, check Armed Status,
CancelAlarm,andturnOutputsOn/Off.SeeAppendixFformore
