Introduction

Welcome to BT Home Monitoring – the 24 hour security and reporting system for your home.

The BT Home Monitor VP1000 unites a high quality security system with a monitoring service which will keep you in contact with the status of your home.

The system is managed by a Control Panel which collects information from wireless sensors, which are strategically placed inside and at entry points to your home.

Once powered up, the Control Panel provides you with visual and verbal information, and will automatically provide system status reports.

When switched on, the system is ready to protect against intrusion. If any sensor is activated, an audible siren is sounded, and your system will make a call to the BT Home Monitoring service to inform you of a potential problem1.

The Control Panel is equipped with Fire, Help and Emergency buttons for use by people at home in emergencies. A Smoke Detector can be integrated into the system to monitor for smoke, 24 hours a day.

You will need a four-digit personal identification number to manage the Control Panel. Up to 7 other users can be authorised to use the system, using PIN numbers or a one touch Keyfob.

Please use this guide to install the system, using the six easy to follow steps, and to familiarise yourself with the key functions of the Control Panel and BT Home Monitoring account.

Key Features
