What happens when my system reports an alarm?

If your system reports an alarm, the following will happen:

1. Your control panel will transmit an alarm signal to Alarm.com.
2. Alarm.com will immediately forward the signal to the monitoring station. 
3. The monitoring station will then try to verify the alarm and may notify fire, police, or emergency medical help. Because your system communicates wirelessly, alarms are forwarded to the monitoring station even if the phone line is cut or damaged.
4. If your system issues an alarm, the Operations Center will follow the Alarm Notification sequence defined for any Alarm Notifications (these updates are not synchronized with the monitoring station call list). At the same time, a live operator from your monitoring station will be trying to contact you to verify the alarm.
