The SC-1000 Wireless Home Security System is a complete wireless security kit. It contains all the basics you need to cover an average sized home, plus includes some very nice features you will not find in other wireless home security systems.
There are two major features of this kit you won't find with competitors. First, it is the easy set up and installation. Out-of-the-box, the SC-1000 system is set up to work. Specifically, the sensors come to you preset to work with the included control panel. Minimal set up.
Secondly is the “Auto-dialer, or Emergency dialer” (the AD-105 formerly the AD-433S). The auto-dialer allows you to program up to 9 telephone numbers that the system will dial when the control panel activates it. Let's face it, in a typical system that is monitored by “central monitoring” isn't as effective as you might want it to be. Typically, when an alarm is triggered, your alarm system seizes the phone line and alerts the central monitoring station. Then, the central station waits before notifying the police in case it is a false alarm. The truth is, by the time the police are notified and arrive at your home (typically a lead time of 10-15 minutes) the criminal is gone. Most criminals know the average time it takes the police to arrive at your home.
What the auto-dialer does is allow you to be alerted and you can by-pass the fees you would pay to a centralized monitoring service.
The SC-1000 is a complete wireless security system kit that can be installed in minutes. With the included motion sensor and two door or window sensors, the system covers enough area for a relatively large sized residence. With the purchase of additional sensors and additional accessories the SC-1000 is capable enough to monitor a business, apartment, or any other commercial application.
The emergency dialer unit, model AD-105 can be your own monitoring center without any monthly charges to be concerned with. You do not need to sign up for additional monitoring services and can therefore save the cost of monthly monitoring fees associated with other typical security systems.
As an additional bonus, the unit can be set to bypass mode which means it will work independently and by pass the control panel. In this mode, if a sensor is triggered, the auto dialer will dial out without generating an auto alarm. PLEASE NOTE: when in by pas only mode, the auto dialer unit DOES NOT work with the sensor that work with the unit in Alarm mode. They are a separate set of sensors you will need to purchase. This ONLY applies if you set it to by pass mode.
The control panel is capable of controlling up to 24 sensors, whether they are door or window sensors, vibration sensors, or many of the other sensors offered by Skylink. When any of these sensors are triggered, a wireless signal is immediately sent to the control panel. The siren sounds and the Auto-dialer (emergency dialer) begins dialing through the preset numbers you have already programmed into the system.
The Emergency or Auto-Dialer is can call up to 9 different phone numbers! Whether it's a pager, cell phone, or a neighbor's number, the auto-dialer will begin dialing numbers until one of the lines are picked up. When the phone is answered, the auto-dialer plays a message your recorded.
