Gadget34 Posted March 8, 2021 Share Posted March 8, 2021 Looking at updating my scantronic alarm to a smarter model and this seems to be a common diy choice. I have done some reading and have the below questions. 1) To enable communication for the app control and alerts I will need a communication module. If I wanted a backup for WiFi (broadband) failing could I just install the gprs module and use a SIM card for app alerts and sms alerts or would I need both modules? 2) Do the modules fit in both panel cases the small/large or do I need the large one? Thanks Link to comment https://www.thesecurityinstaller.co.uk/community/topic/44421-pyronix-euro-46-questions/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gadget34 Posted March 8, 2021 Author Share Posted March 8, 2021 So only one connectivity card can be installed? I guess I best stick with the WiFi one unless the gprs one can do everything? Obviously will need a SIM card but more robust.
