System Messages
Your security system supports receiving messages from the Central Monitoring Station. The messages
can be about system upgrades, additional services, special regional weather alerts, etc. The messages
can be sent for all system users to read, or as confi dential messages that only the Master User can
read. Messages can be tagged by the sender as standard, urgent, or emergency priority.
Up to 31 text messages can be stored in the Control Panel’s memory. They can be reviewed through
the Control Panel’s display. Displayed messages can be fi ltered by type and sorted by date or
alphabetically. Messages can be saved in the Control Panel, or deleted after they are read.
Displaying Messages
When a message is sent to the Control Panel,
three beeps will sound and the message icon
will display on the Security Screen. Standard
messages display a blue message icon
with a number of unread messages in the
upper right corner. Urgent messages display a
yellow message icon with an attention
symbol in the upper right corner. Emergency
messages display a red message icon with
the bell symbol in the upper right corner.
