MONITORING
The Monitoring Station is the place where the security company
monitors all its customer's security systems. When an alarm is
triggered, the
Doss
Alarmfone
sends the alert to the Monitoring
Station via the telephone line. When the alert is received, the
monitoring service determines whether the
alert is forced entry, medical, smoke or gas and immediately informs you on
your nominated telephone number. The monitoring service then informs the
appropriate authority on your instruction; security, police, fire brigade or am-
bulance. If the monitoring service can't reach you they will ring the next nu-
mber on your nominated contact list and so forth until a response is received.
