Introduction
The Simon XT uses wireless technology to warn your family about intrusion, carbon
monoxide and fire. The system communicates with a central monitoring station and
sends voice messages to an offsite phone.
The security system uses sensors that communicate alarms to the control panel
using radio waves.
The system is supervised, meaning that the panel checks the status of each sensor to
detect problems. If the panel detects trouble, it will notify you with displayed and
spoken messages, beeps, and indicator lights on the panel itself.
A Simon XT installation may include any of the devices listed in Table 1 below.
