I currently have a DS7000. The console is near the center of the house and works fine. We have it set to ding-dong when a door is opened. We really like this feature. However, now that the hot weather is here and we run our air conditioners, we have a hard time hearing the ding-dong throughout the house. We don't have central air, just window units. So the rooms running the a/c are closed off.
I was thinking, would this be possible? Could I get more consoles and only program the door sensors? I wouldn't use it for an alarm. I only want it for the ding-dong.
I thought about making some door chimes sound off when the door is opened, but I use the door chimes for the motion sensor on the front porch to alert us if someone is on the porch. And if I set the chimes to sound when a door is opened, that could get confusing. So that's why I thought about the alarm consoles and using them only for the ding-dong sound.
Unless of course there was another chime with a different sound.
Thoughts? Ideas?
