Creating a CHeKT Signaling Adapter
Creating a signal adaptor allows the CHeKT cloud to send alarm signals with video event URL's to your alarm receiving software. This adapter will be used to create a Monitoring Station record by security dealers. If your company is the monitoring center and the security dealer, then you will create a Signal Adapter connection and a Monitoring Station record.
The Monitoring Station Record sets specific security dealer settings like Reciever Number, Line Number, DNIS and other details. Click here to see how to create a Monitorng Station Record.
