Re: DSC Communications trouble -

["Crash Gordon" <webmaster@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Vonage VoIP is unreliable (at best) for transmission of alarm signals.
Dont waste  your time, it will drive you nuts...and if you get it to work it
may only work once in a while. Get a POTS line.

| 1.)Is there a way to reset the alarm.
| 2.)Is there a way to make the alarm NOT look for a dial tone.
