if 1 part of the system is 2 way then great. Inferring that its a 2 way system when the only 2 way part is a keyfob. That unit has 1 way detection. IMO misleading saying its 2 way
true two way is hkc, i think texecom is too but never tested it. Many claim the worst is visonic claiming it on the system (power stuff) when it was only the fob
most systems work on polls like comms.
They poll every so often in to check. Then they get the command to turn on leds etc.
Transmit alarms when armed instantly, transmit when disarmed as part of poll
ie the HKC polls every 20 secs, you can push it longer for battery or shorter etc.
eline is a rebadge. Fine sensor and ive used loads. Different to the mirrored alarmcom based units. Watch for new units based onthis tech. Some very exciting stuff coming from vanderbilt in the next 12 months.
The cables are probably under the floorboards. Mice like to chew cables. The alarm is only low voltage so no issue apart from the one you have. But if it's been chewing mains cables too you have a bigger worry
