Having gone through technical documentation and so on, not sure how effective Burglar Alarm system Almond3 can be? Have not purchased one yet, but it looks one of the best on the market for Connected Alarm System / Home Automation.
Few questions that I have not been able to find the answer.
1. Can Almond 3 operate as Burglar alarm if there is no internet connection? I.e can the user Arm (Away), Arm (Stay), Disarm the system via the Almond3 screen or an additonal keypad or keyfob? If no internet is connected, when system is armed, and e.g. movement is detected, can it activate the siren and other alarm actions?
2. iOS/Android App, can it have Arm(Away), Arm(Stay), Disarm buttons - cannot find many example screencaps for the Almond3.
3. Can Almond3 be used as SmartHome hub only and not as a router. I have already a router with multiple VPN and VoIP setups, so rather would leave it on.
4. Does the Amazon Alexa work in the UK?
Thank you very much for your help.
