Simon 3 Question

[Polyfusion]

I'm thinking of purchasing a Simon 3 security system and came a cross
the Installation Instructions online
http://www.aegiswireless.com/web/documents/S3_Installation_466-1873f.pdf.
It lists 4 Control Panel Models:

60-875-95R (basic panel)
60-875-01-95R (with *2-way voice)
60-875-10-3 (with *transmitter)
60-875-11-3 (with *2-way voice and *transmitter)
* Not investigated for use by UL.

What is the transmitter and what does it mean "Not investigated for
use by UL" and does it mean the whole system or just those features?


Also is there a work around to deter somebody from smashing the system
after a break in the panel before it calls out. I know most alarm
systems beep for a few seconds to allow to deactivate it upon entry.

Last Question, I read it can voice call your cell phone when the alarm
goes off but I could not find it in the directions on how this works.

Thanks
Mike

With the Simon III the workaround for the "smashy smashy" is easy:

Place your Simon III in a protected location (not in a metal vault
though...)

2. Disable the entry/exit beeps at the PANEL through programming.

3. Use a remote two-way talking wireless keypad mounted near the entry/exit
point.

4. Use a wireless siren to signal your entry/exit times, OR use a X-10 lamp
module and "see" your entry/exit times.

The Simon only beeps 2 or 3 times at the start of entry delay

X-10 is great for lights but thats about it

You want the new Allegro unit. The keypad/control unit and the
communications module are in two different housings so if somebody
did smash the keypad/control unit the com module would still signal.

try http://www.caddx.com and you will be redirected to the new GE
site where you can get info on the unit.

I can't find anything on the GE site or any other site were to buy or
any information about the Allegro System.
