I would personally ditch the com2400 in favour of a speech and text dialer, it will be much more useful in the long run and will do everything plus more that the com2400 will do. By using a com2400 you are only using 1/3 of its use as you wont be using the modem part or the digi part.

The nice thing about the com2400over the dialler is that it sends which zone has activated along with its associated text, if a second zone is activated it will send that as well.

Ie 1st activation=dining room windows, 2nd activation =dining room pir, 3rd action brown underpants someone is definately breaking in!!

doesnt seem to be much choice in the diallers range imo. Niche market an all...

From what i know ADE informa is //.B.W.F.//. Cheep but not particulary cheerful.

Texecom do speech dialler only. Or a speech and text dialler. Which are good.

Menvier do similar as well in sd1 or sd2 (inc text)

But a bit more on the pricey side. But top quality stuff.

Im thinking of going to the texecom S&T. Comes in just above at just above ***.

Please do not post prices for trade equipment in the public forums.

Well both the Texecom Speech and Text dialer and the Menvier SD2 are excellent units, i would have either. Apart from obviously phoning you when the alarm activates, they both let you listen into the premises, with built in microphones, both have programmable outputs enabling you to control equipment remotely with the use of a relay, the SD2 also monitors tempurature and can be programmed to call you if the tempurature reaches a certain level.

Overall they're both pretty much the same price, and both probably of much more use and flexibility in this situation than the com2400
