Hi, The Centico (SP) system that Steve used to deal with I believe is no more, it was quite expensive. The system we have here doesn't actually have a screen on it, everything is controlled with lights and beeps, and to access any of the advanced functions of the unit you need an engineer code which I don't have, and the turning on and off of the system is very simple. I do have a feature on it where you can turn off a specific zone in the house for pets etc. by using a programme button but this again is very usable without sight. Not sure of the make/model etc. it was just from a local company. Andrew. -----Original Message----- From: bcab-bounces@lists.bcab.org.uk [mailto:bcab-bounces@lists.bcab.org.uk] On Behalf Of Kiran Kaja Sent: 30 April 2012 23:10 To: BCAB Discussion List Cc: BCAB Discussion List Subject: Re: [BCAB] accessible burglar alarm I would appreciate any info as well.
