+--- Thread: Sending SMS without announcing (/thread-3456.html)
- rocketsimon - 07-21-2013
Hi,
I have a requirement to trigger an SMS text when an input is triggered, and then send 2nd when input restores again, but not trigger an intruder alarm. My approach was to configure a dedicated alarm type that triggers and dial out when triggered. My issue is that this is announced on the keypad - which I understand is because its an alarm - and I can\'t seem to stop this happening....
Any ideas how to send text messages for particularly inputs without triggering an announcement? I understand sms messages can\'t be triggered directly in responses?
Kind Regards
Simon

I believe \"Idle State\" Alarm Type eg Family Care alarm is not announced

THank you for the response, the Alarm is set as \'idle\' in state, but does still announce I\'m afraid.

I think you mean that the Zone is announced, not the Alarm
If that is the case in Zone Response, make a Response with action \"Skip Announcement for Zone\" in Keypad category
This will prevent announcement of a zone
