the Alarm Receiving Centre for verification.

alarm system and backed up with emergency battery.

Keypad

used to trigger an SOS. Acts also as a siren in case of an 
alarm. Each user has their own PIN code or keytag.

Keytags

Watch logo on the keypad to arm and disarm the alarm 

system.

detects attempts to break the door or window by

smoke. Always on and always monitored, even when 

the alarm system is disarmed. Acts as an additional 

siren for your alarm system. We can verify fire visually

SOS from anywhere in the home. You can also 

easily check the current status of the alarm system.

the emergency and to assist you and your family. The
