Title: PRO 2000 does it have a dailer?
Post by: tallfireguy on September 27, 2006, 04:39:59 PM
I have a stupid question! Does the pro 2000 have the ability to call my cell phone and the neighbor?(autodialer) Or is that only with the ds7000. Called x10 got 2 different answers!
Thanks

No! the Pro 2000 does not have a dialer I'm looking at one as I'm typing this that I'm returning. It's suppose to be programmable so that you can have it professionally monitored but when I called Orca x10's monitoring affiliate they told me that they could not monitor the 2000 because it could not reliably communicate with their equipment and that they would exchange it for the Monitor Plus instead. So the 2000 for 80 bucks 79 dollars and some change is in my opinion really not worth it you would be better off with the ds7000 if you don't need the monitoring if you pickup the Monitor Plus you will have to have it monitored through x10 for 19.99 a month ouch! decided to go ahead and let them monitor the system for a few months until I complete my new hybrid hardwired system. The Monitor Plus seems to work pretty well but if you do order a ds7000 be sure to tell them that you want the Pro version of the MS10's motion detectors  (PMS01) and use them in the 2 movement mode if you get a good one you shouldn't have any trouble with false alarms. Hope this helps! ::)
