New! Instant Text or Email Messaging on Signal Activity
No more 3 a.m. phone calls from Central on non-urgent signals like AC loss, low battery, power outage during storms, opening/closings--now you can elect to receive all or some types of signal activity for instant text messaging or emailing. In cases of alarm events, you can contact Central before operators have contacted authorities.
This new service upgrade from our Manitou System will send the following information in an email or text message, instantly, within seconds of Central receiving the signal:
* Date & Time
* Customer Name & Address
* Alarm Company Name
* Event Description
* Event Zone & Area
* Alarm Company Name
* Callback Number
Best of all, this new feature is available at no charge to you or your subscribers!

AIM
- Automated Internet Monitoring
AlarmWATCH
is committed to supplying the latest in security industry technologies
to keep our dealers on the cutting edge, so you can offer the
most advanced services to your subscribers. With this in mind,
we are proud to introduce AIM, an innovative Automated Internet
Monitoring service.
VoIP
is catching many dealers off-guard when subscribers change their
telephone service to a VoIP carrier such as Vonage or Comcast
Voice, without notifying their security company (more
on VoIP problems). Subscribers, and in some cases dealers, are
unaware that an add-on device must be installed to the existing
alarm panel. Problems will soon be magnified, as phone companies
are moving toward using VoIP in their switching stations, which
will effect the communication of alarm panels, even when the subscriber
is not using VoIP at their locations.
AIM
is the solution to these problems. AIM provides a new mode of
monitoring which receives signals over broad band connections.
AlarmWATCH
now has AIM available on multiple receiver types including:
We
also:
- Support Both Honeywell products Alarmnet-I
and Symphony.
- Have encrypted communications available
for jobs that require high security
All
above named manufacturers offer modules that can be incorporated
with any alarm panel using inputs. This means now even older alarm
systems can be used with AIM. DSC
is considered the ideal solution for this because it has connections
for the most products
These
devices require different IT receiver account numbers.
Contact
AlarmWATCH's IT department to obtain the necessary account change
information, by email
or call the Central Station, 1-866-500-8808.
VoIP
and Security: What You Should Know
Many
businesses and homeowners today are attracted to Voice over
Internet Protocol or VoIP services from local Internet providers
and cable companies. VoIP offers significant cost savings on
local and informational calls as well as streamlining service
providers by utilizing one vendor for both networking and telecommunications.
However users are unaware of the security issues and vulnerabilities
of VoIP systems in relation to security alarms and emergency
services when provided by some local Internet providers and
cable companies. Learn
about the 6 problems that alarm companies have encountered.
