4G Home Alarm System

Many wonder how a 4G alarm system operates and may doubt its functions. A 4G alarm system contains an inbuilt 4G LTE communication module that works like a mobile handset. Once you purchase the system, you must buy a SIM card and choose a mobile service package. You can program several phone numbers that will receive alarms. The system will notify the owner via voice call and SMS when an abnormal event occurs.

You can quickly test whether your 4G alarm system is functioning correctly. After programming and triggering it, you can try the system and receive an auto-dialling call or SMS. Advanced 4G alarm systems have an LCD that displays the 4G signal. You can also try calling the system via mobile phone or telephone. If you receive a message that the phone is powered off or out of service, the 4G alarm system is not working correctly.

It's a common misconception that 4G alarms have a higher false alarm rate than other alarm systems. False alarms cannot be terminated, but they can be reduced. To reduce false alarms, you need to use high-quality detectors. The control panel is not related to false alarms. You can reduce false alarms using more window/door magnetic contact switches and fewer PIR motion detectors. Proper pet-immune PIR motion detectors can reduce false alarms when you have pets. Most pet-immune PIR motion detectors have a dual-tech or tri-tech design to reduce false alarms and support pet-immune functions.
