A car pager alarm lets you know if your car has been broken into or stolen
even if you are too far away to hear the siren. There are two types of pagers;
a radio pager will transmit a warning radio signal to your keyfob or you can
opt for a car security alarm that sends you an SMS text message to your mobile
phone.
A radio signal car
pager alarm will usually have a range of at least 1 mile and can work up
to 3 miles depending on the local terrain, a basic system will have an audible
bleep but you can get keyfobs with mini LCD displays where icons tell you which
sensor or zone has been triggered. Radio car pager alarms are available as a
complete package or you can connect an output from an existing car security
alarm to a radio page accessory.
An SMS text message car
security alarm has no range limit except where there is no mobile phone
signal and can function interactively letting you can send a text message command
to the car to immobilise the engine as soon as it pauses at a junction or lock
doors, close windows, switch on the siren and hazards and even operate a smoke
box.
All in one car pager alarm security system are available as a Thatcham alarm
or non Thatcham alarm with a radio or SMS pager. The 480vx viper
car alarm is a category 1 integrated radio car pager alarm with a 19 icon
keyfob or you can opt for the Sempal
interactive SMS pager and GPS alarm
car tracker that lets you immobiliser your vehicle and more via your mobile
phone. Non Thatcham integrated pager car security alarms like the Spalsat are
usually triggered by a motion sensor but you can use a trigger signal output
from any
Thatcham
alarm.
A car pager alarm accessory will have an input connection which connects to
an alarm output so when an alarm is triggered a signal is sent to the pager
to transmit a radio signal or dial up and send an text message, all SMS text
message pager car security alarms require a SIMM card which can be pay as you
go which keeps costs down.
