Adjust settings through the inTouch app

NOTE: To control the system directly through your control panel, scroll down past the app information.

You can turn off system trouble beeps using the inTouch app by using one of the following methods:

• By accessing current troubles in the Issues card on the Home screen.
• By accessing the Security System settings page.

Turning off trouble beeps using the app disables beeps at the panel, but the trouble condition remains on the account until it is resolved. Trouble beeps are paused for 7 days using these procedures and will be re-enabled after 7 days or manually by the technician or customer.

Note: If the system trouble beeps continue at the security panel after performing the following steps, verify the panel and module are communicating properly. If the panel and module are not communicating, trouble beeps cannot be turned off using remote commands.

 

To turn off system trouble beeps from the Issues card:

  1. Login to your app.
  2. Tap “Silence Trouble Beeps” in the Issues card on the home screen.

Additional tips for preparing your household for severe weather

In addition to the above, here are a few basic tips that may help you prepare your household to deal with this significant weather event:

  • Know where to go. If you are ordered to evacuate, know the local hurricane evacuation route(s) to take and have a plan for where you can stay. Contact your local emergency management agency for more information.
  • Put together a disaster supply kit. Include a flashlight, batteries, cash, first aid supplies, medications, and copies of your critical information if you need to evacuate.
  • If you are not in an area that is advised to evacuate and you decide to stay in your home, plan for adequate supplies in case you lose power and water for several days and you are not able to leave due to flooding or blocked roads.
  • Make a family emergency communication plan.
  • Many communities have text or email alerting systems for emergency notifications. To find out what alerts are available in your area, search the Internet with your town, city, or county name and the word “alerts.”

 

Our Central Station will be monitored 24/7 and if you have questions, please feel free to give us a call at 800-948-7133

As always, stay safe and we wish you well.
