Special chime
The special chime feature allows you to install motion sensors in a patio or at the
front door, and be notified when someone is approaching those areas. These motion
sensors are not used for intrusion protection. The panel will chime three times, if the
special chime mode is enabled.
Note: If there are no special chime sensors in your system, the special chime option
will not appear in the System menu.

Using an offsite phone
(This feature has not been verified for use by UL.)
If enabled by the installer, you can control your Simon XTi system remotely from an
offsite phone. The panel answers a phone call according to the dialing method
programmed by your installer.
After a certain combination of rings and pauses, the panel will answer the call with
the voice prompt Enter Your Code. You must enter the correct code to gain access.
If you are interacting with your panel and the panel hangs up on you, the system is
calling in a report to the central monitoring station or remote phone due to an action
by you or someone at the security system site. The actions listed in Table 7 below
may be performed from an offsite phone.
