16 Simon XT User Manual
Using an offsite phone
If enabled by the installer, you can control your Simon XT panel 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 6 below may be performed from an offsite phone.
