Frequently Asked Questions

Why doesn't my phone work when my alarm goes off?
Your alarm system communicates through your phone lines. When the system is tripped it will seize the line for five to thirty seconds to dial into our central station. Do not keep trying to dial out manually. Wait for approximately one minute to give the system time to communicate. The more zones tripped, the longer the communication process.
My smoke detectors are chirping, what do I do?
Safeguard smoke detectors do not chirp; they communicate directly with our Central Station. If yours is chirping, the most common cause is that you have a simple battery-powered (usually 9-volt) smoke detector in need of a fresh battery.
How do I change or add a combination to my system?
It depends on the type of system. Please refer to your owner¹s manual or call our customer services department for assistance.
Why is my keypad showing "comm fail"?
You may have had an interruption in service. To clear you will need to arm your system, trip it, and let the siren go for approximately thirty seconds. Enter your combination to silence the alarm and your keypad should clear.
