Hell Fellow DYIers:
I am trying to add functionality that allows me to receive status updates via SMS to my phone, as my system is not monitored.
From what I could discern, the OP2 cannot do this natively; so I did some research and it looked like Snap-Link might be just
what I needed. Unfortunately, it has not been as cut and dry as I had hoped.
For one thing, it looks like in order for the email notification to function, the USB keyfob has to be installed and running on a computer which somewhat defeats the purpose of what I wanted to accomplish. Am I correct on this, or am I overlooking something?
Basically, I would like for the system to send status messages to my cell (for example, when the alarm is enabled, disabled and in case something is tripped, fire alarm, motion detector etc). Is there a way to do this? I have been looking all over the net for someone that has done something similar and I am not finding much.
I would appreciate any assistance/recommendations anyone might have.
Thanks in advance.
