Sensor - VTech VC7151 User Manual

Sensor

The sensor helps you to monitor your garage door, in-house
door, window, medicine cabinet, or an area around your
house. This keeps you notified if the monitored object is open
or closed, or someone has accessed an area that is off-limits.
When any of the monitored garage door, in-house door,
window, or medicine cabinet opens, or when there is motion
in the monitored area, the sensor sends an alert to your
telephone. Both the base and handsets announce and display
alert messages.
The telephone system has a sensor log. It stores the latest 50 alert messages from
all sensors. You can review when and which sensor was triggered. You can also
use the individual sensor's menu to check the current sensor status and sensor log.
You can choose to receive alert calls at other telephones. Store up to three desired
telephone numbers, for example your cell phone number and office phone number,
into the telephone base. You will be notified even when you are away from home.
When you receive the remote alert call from the telephone base, you can choose
to listen to the sound in your house; or you can choose to speak through the
telephone base to the visitor or intruder.
Follow the instructions in this section to turn on or off the sensor alert system
and change sensor mode; or to set sensor alert schedule, test the sensor signal
strength, rename the sensor, reset sensor alerts, and review sensor logs.
NOTES
• When there are more than four handsets registered, the telephone system supports
sensor alerts for the first four registered handsets only.
