I have this alarm dialing my cell phone via a land line. I want to add a way to dial out via cell, no monitoring just a call to a caller i d ed cell phone
Its easy but requires Testor's model cement, a soldering iron and the scematics of the cell phone
Just hook your cell phone's alarm input to the alarm communicator's output terminals. (You will probably need to open the cell phone to find the proper terminals, unless you have one of the newer models.) Then program your alarm panel for cellular auto-dial format, and put the code 757634 into the account number slot.
Good luck!
and an old soda can, two clothes pins and a partridge in a pear tree
There used to be a unit available that would do this, but it's "analog". I'm not certain there's a unit out there that would do what you want without having to tie into a monitoring agreement with an alarm dealer.
You forgot to mention a smoldering fire and a wet blanket.
The account code should be 634757 for auto-dial cell format. Geeze...
Ahh the McGyver method, I forgot abut that one
USP makes some limited products to attach a cell phone to the alarm system.. (see link)

Sorry to see so many "other" alarm persons giving you such a childish collection of answers.

D'OH!
Where's the part where you also text "big hooters"?
Not available on the 1500. He'll need to upgrade the panel and keypads.
Only on the GE panels.
I just realized that when that 1500 goes into runaway (and it will), he'll have a hell of a cell bill
You mean 867-5309
I can't believe I typed a "1" instead of a "9"........... Duh........
