I did not know this....anything working through the cell system is not the answer.....too many instances of cell service going down in less than major circumstances & more than once on rumors like major storms or earthquakes that never affected our area.....totally unreliable....go back to the hard wired telegraph system the dice has been rolled for way too long.HCO said:The ERS and solar boxes work through the Verizon cell system.

The Deputy Superintendent told us that the BFD fire alarm boxes work well and are not expensive to keep up - because they have maintained their fire alarm box system very well. It is still in excellent operating condition and they get fires and emergencies from these boxes.
