A.Monitored alarm connects to an Alarm Receiving Centre (ARC) which is a remote central station manned 24 hours a day 365 days a year, via a telephone line, radio or IP network. The monitored alarm sends signals to the ARC when the alarm is set or unset, if it detects intrusion or burglary, smoke or fire, when a personal attack button is manually activated and or there is a fault with the system such as electrical mains failure. The ARC verifies the alarm signals and take appropriate course of action such as alerting the owner, key-holders and or Police or fire authorities.
A.A telephone line cut will prevent your alarm system from signalling to the ARC and in that circumstance, the ARC will not be able to monitor the alarm premises. A solution is to utilize dual path signalling such Redcare GSM or Dualcom GPRS for your alarm communication link with the ARC.

Security Tips
Burglar Alarms - Visible burglar alarms make burglars think twice. There are many burglar alarm systems on the market, ranging from cheaper of pounds. The system should be professionally installed to comply with BS4737 or EN50131/PD6662 standards. Remember, a badly-fitted alarm can create problems in itself. Don't install a DIY system unless you have the electrical knowledge and practical skill to do so. As a guide, make sure your security system is installed by a NSI or SSAIB approved company.
Doors - Secure All Doors. If doors are not secure, neither is your home. Fit back and front doors with five lever mortice deadlocks - and use it. Fit all exterior doors - top and bottom - with bolts.
Windows - A third of burglars get in through a back window. Fit key-operated window locks to all downstairs windows, those which can't be seen from the street and easily accessible upstairs window, e.g. those above a flat roof or by a drainpipe.
Lighting - Good lighting can deter a thief. Think of having external security light with infra-red sensor that switches the light on for a few moments when it detects movement in its range.
Home & Away - Don't tempt the thief - keep all valuable items out of sight. Don't advertise your absence when you're on holiday, or even when out at work or shopping or at home sleeping. Most burglars will only tackle an unoccupied house
Fire Detection - Be a good neighbour and enjoy the benefits of good neighbourhood. If you see anyone acting suspiciously in your neighbourhood, call the police. Join a Neighbourhood Watch Scheme - there are now over 130,000 in this country. Anyone can start up a Watch - call your local police for details.
Personal Attack - For personal safety and peace of mind; consider a stand alone panic attack alarm or an intruder alarm with panic attack facility. It is useful to summon help or police response when you are attacked or feel threatened by an intruder or a stranger in your home.
