Hi all,

I've just canceled ADT monitoring and I'll probably switch to another company to provide that same service at a more not so expensive fee, but before doing that I was wondering if it is possible to program that device to page me in case of an alarm?

I have an Ademco Vista 10se and I want to do some testing first. Is that possible?

The company I'm thinking about switching is "Alarm Relay Inc." which charges only $8.95 monthly (charged annually) + $35.00 one time setup fee.

Regards,

Cesar

Yes, a Vista 10se has a pager output option, and it can do that in addition to a regular monitoring account.

Websearch using the phrase: "Vista 10se installer manual" to take a look at what's involved. It's not hard, but there is a little program tinkering involved.
