Hi, hope someone might be able to advise me.
I have an Accenta 8 alarm which I am happy with having moved sensors etc;
I want the ability for the alarm to text me if it is triggered and also for me to be able to cancel (or trigger?) it remotely. (I am also setting up cctv I can view remotely.)
I think I will need a new alarm panel but struggling to find anything under about £300 with the GSM capability. There are kits that are much cheaper on Ebay but I don't want to replace my (good quality) sensors with some naff ones and a naff alarm panel.
Also I want one that operates by codes not fobs.
Any suggestions?
Thanks
Roger
 
thanks i've priced that up at £244. I was hoping to pay a bit less but this seems like a good professional system?
From reading the installation manual it seems like I need the USB interface and program it from the laptop, or can it be done from the keypad?
I think I need to use APN programmer on the laptop for the GSM module or is there another way?
 
its much easier to program from laptop with wintex , gsm just plugs on and programmed via wintex or keypad. dont forget sim card i would normally use voda ,top up with £10 select freebies and you get extra texts and calls
 
Thanks is the battery included? I think the one I have in the Accenta is due for replacement by now even if it is the right size.
