With my internet connection do I still need an outside service to get email or phone alerts?

That will depend on if/which controller you get and how good you are at setting up scripts. I believe the MiCasa Verdi VeraLite can be set to send an email when a lock opens, but I haven't tried it.

yes. Any alert can be excluded except for a tornado alert. It won't let you turn that one off.

No. It does not need internet to work, but if you phone is dead (no battery power) it cannot respond when you press the button on the key-fob that would normally make your phone signal (beep, bong, ring, ding or otherwise sound according to your choice).

I do not believe that internet or phone registration is required. The registration key is included in the package AND STILL WORKING WITHOUT PROBLEMS.

Not by themselves. I use an ISY controller to generate email or text notifications in response to events.

I am not sure, it is best to email Autonet directly. It works all over the U.S. when we had cell phone coverage. Not sure if this works with European internet towers.

Yes. Www.z-wave.com has a lot of info. If you ever want to add alarm.com so you can control from outside the home I can set you up on a cheap plan with no contract.

Do you support 911 calls?Yes. Ooma provides E911 service where supported. We will collect your address when you register your Ooma device online, and send it to emergency response personnel when you dial 911. Since Ooma works over your Internet connection, you will need to call from a mobile phone if your Internet connection is down. If you're concerned about relying on your Internet for phone service, we've built the Ooma system to work with a landline back-up. In this case, your 911 calls will always be routed over your landline.

Negative. Even with the app running the audio is poor. Hope this helps. As a side, the email alerts do not work properly. Even with a strong Wi Fi signal, I continue to get many false motion detected email alerts. Belkin even switched out all my cameras but still have the same problem.

Short answer: NO. Long answer: It may be possible that First Alert is working on an adapter that'll receive an alert from these units which can then send a text or e-mail to you. However, I don't work for them nor am I aware of any such device being in development (though it would be nice).

You can us this on iOS, Android or the web (via IFTT). There is no direct web user interface but IFTT allows you to operate it via email, text, or one of various other triggers. It's pretty neat. Check it out: https://ifttt.com/wtf. You will need iPhone or Android to set it up though.

I know that the device can be set up to send alerts but I do not have anything yet that I need an alert for... only pumps or locks. Eventually however I will have a motion sensor and or motion cam that will alert my cellphone. The company has tech support and they are very helpful... very helpful !!

Email and text notifications are unreliable even after receiving so-called tech support. After a while, I only got loud noise alerts and the zone alerts stopped entirely even after tech support "fixes".

As long as you do not need to load software, you should be okay. As long as you can get to your internet provider via the web it should work. My parents have access to their Verizon emails and web services with no issues.

There is a basic time day set for detecting motion if that helps. So it would only email or ftp during the hours that you set.
