The Skylink Sc 1000 worked fine, however, the accompanying sensors did not work properly. They either failed to link with the command module or they operated when I moved them in a certain angle. Setup was attempted twice with the same results.
 Good price but one major flaw November 27, 2008

We bought this system to monitor our travel trailer while parked outside of our house during a remodel. We have 110v to the trailor so the system doesn't have to run from it's own batteries all of the time. The door sensors and motion detector are easy to mount, even in a trailer. Programming the base key pad is a snap and the remote control is great. With the remote, I don't really ever use the key pad. The alarm is painfully (literally) loud when it goes off. The system even has entry delays and one can program all of the input devices to a selected zone - delayed or instant.
My one complaint - the dialer functionality. The concept of the dialer is great. It will call your phone when the alarm goes off. The draw back is you have to turn it off and on seperately from the rest of the system. It does not "talk" with the remote or the keypad. Also, It will dial when anything is tripped, even when the system is not armed. It will dial if the system is set to monitor only the doors but the motion detector is activated (the "at home" setting). The only solution is to keep the dialer off when anything could be tripped and only turn it on when you leave. Also, if we arm the system for the doors only and one of the dogs activates the motion detector while we are gone...guess what. We get dialed. That is so annoying. The only work around is to hide the motion detector when we are gone.

Overall this is a very simple product to install, however I've had two issues that I'm unable to fix.
1 - When installing one door/window sensor, I cannot get it to work (it's installed about 72ft away from the command panel).
2 - When programming the motion sensor, I'm unable to reprogram one to zone 3.
I'm reviewing the owner's manual to see if there's some step I've missed.
Other than that, it's very simple to set up, I would recommend for somebody looking to invest in security without any monthly fees.

Works as advertised, If you want to have an alarm system without the monitoring fees, this one will do it.
I have it call my cell phone and a neighbor. If someone breaks in, I'll be informed and my neighbor can verify visually and call the police. I also have a third dialed option if my neighbor is away.
It IS a wireless system, but note: The main panel and dialer require outlets to plug in to. The hardest part for me was figuring out the placement without wires running everywhere. The AC adapter has ample cord length however.
I ordered an extra remote for my trusted neighbor to be able to shut the thing down in case of a false alarm.
I almost forgot, the motion sensor works well also. I rigged it in my shed. Having 4 cats kinda makes an in home motion sensor a no go.

I bought the 100 plus a couple of door/window sensors and an extra motion detector. If I had to do it again I think I'd just get the MD's. I set it off to see what would happen. It called all of the numbers I put into the dialer. The alarm is truely alarming! It would scare my X mother-in-law off her broom! Nice unit, I'd do it again!
