Components include:
•
Panel.
The panel circuitry is enclosed in a steel cabinet and is installed out of
the way of household or workplace traffic. The panel monitors all sensors and
devices in the system and initiates a call to the central monitoring station in an
alarm situation.
•
Touchpads.
Touchpads let you communicate with and control the system.
You will use a touchpad to arm, disarm, and program your system.
•
Door/window sensors.
Door and window sensors protect the perimeter of
your home by detecting when a door or window is opened.
•
Motion sensors.
Motion detectors in hallways or individual rooms detect a
person moving across the field of detection.
•
Environmental sensors.
Environmental sensors, such as smoke, heat, and
carbon monoxide detectors, remain alert for the presence of fire or carbon
monoxide 24 hours a day.
