About the 2GIG Go!Control System
Depending on the options set during the installation, the 2GIG Go!Control system has the ability to provide three forms
of protection: burglary, fire, and emergency, The system consists of the 2GIG Control Panel, wireless sensors for perimeter
and interior burglary protection, and wireless smoke and carbon monoxide detectors. In addition, optional remote control
key fobs, wireless panic buttons, and keypads may also be installed.
The system monitors all protection sensor types (a.k.a., “zones”) and the system’s status. The Control Panel displays
monitoring information and controls the alarm siren. The system can also be setup to send alarm and status reports to a
Central Station and has the capability for two (2)-way voice communications with the Remote Service Provider (RSP).
When a security system is installed, insurers may offer discounts on the homeowners’ or renters’ insurance policy.
Although the requirements and discount credits vary for each different insurer, users can generally save money as the level
of protection increases. It is recommended that you inform the end user to check with their insurance agent to determine
if the insurer has specific requirements and/or offers any discount(s).
