OVERVIEW

The System Enhancement Module (SEM) can be used with  

Honeywell/ADEMCO VISTA-10P, VISTA-15P, and VISTA-20P

 panels to 

enable wireless reporting of alarms and other system events over the 
wireless cellular network and optional broadband Ethernet. The SEM 
is intended to be used as the primary communication path for all alarm 
signaling to the central monitoring station. The wireless alarm signaling 
and routing service is operated by Alarm.com. The SEM also features 
integrated support for Alarm.com’s home automation services with 
built-in Z-Wave capabilities.

Alarm.com strongly recommends installing an alpha keypad with at least 32 
zones to ensure the “Communication Failure” trouble condition is displayed to 
the user. See FAQs for more information.
