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-5 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 Access 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 on page 15 may be performed from an offsite phone.
