1. What Kind of Alarm System Do I have (for insurance purposes)?
   Insurance companies usually want to know if the alarm is Nacoss or SSAIB installed.
   
   Nacoss (NSI) or SSAIB refers to the installation, not the panel itself. If the company that installed the alarm are NSI or SSAIB (Nacoss no longer exists) approved, and installed it to the requirements of PD6662 Grade 2x, 2 or 3 then the alarm installation as a whole can rightly be referred to as an NSI or SSAIB approved installation. The Euro series of panels meet all the currently required UK standards, providing they have been installed correctly.
   
   Gradings:
   Euro Mini is suitable for Grade 2x installations
   Euro 46 is suitable for Grade 2x, Grade 2 and Grade 3 installations
   EURO-76 and above panels are suitable for Grade 2x, Grade 2 and Grade 3 installations
   The Enforcer two-way wireless panel is suitable for Grade 2x and Grade 2 installations

2. How many mobile phones can the Euro-MERiDIAN send SMS messages to?
   You may have messages received on up to 4 mobile phones, however this is reduced if you are using the modem to signal to an Alarm Receiving Centre as well.

3. Can I set and unset the system from outside my premesis?
   Using our new external Prox reader, you can use your tags to unset and set the system from outside the building just as would from inside the building. By using our Windows PC software you will also be able to set and unset designated areas - from anywhere in the world!

4. Can I add radio to a Euro-MERiDIAN system?
   Yes, our new Frequency Agile, 868MHz Echostream technology fully integrates with the Euro-MERiDIAN panels - at Class 6 standard! With a Line-of-Sight range of 1km, and through use of our advanced repeaters, no site will be too large to cover by radio
