Motion, Door, and Window Sensors for Reliable Emergency Protection
The SC-1000 comes complete with a motion sensor and two door/window sensors--enough coverage for small- to medium-sized homes. Because it works in conjunction with up to 30 Skylink security accessories, including Dial Alert, Alarm Detector Sensor, and Flood Sensor, this system can be customized to suit your needs and can be expanded to accommodate larger spaces or businesses that require a higher level of protection. If any sensors are triggered when the system is armed, the included 110dB siren will make a piercing sound, and the sensor will immediately send a wireless signal to the system's dialer.
Automatically Calls for Help in an Emergency
In case of an emergency, the SC-1000 follows a straightforward process to make sure you get the help you need. When you receive the system, you can program the emergency dialer to call up to nine different phone numbers, including your cellular phone, a pager, your doctor, relatives, friends, neighbors, etc., should something trigger one of the sensors. You'll also record a personal 40-second emergency message. In case of emergency, the system's dialer will automatically dial the number or numbers you have entered. Once the recipient picks up the phone, the emergency dialer will play your prerecorded message and inform the recipient that you are in an emergency situation and that help should be sent right away.
Lighted Keypad and Low-Battery Indicator for Easy Operation
Offering simple and straightforward operation, the SC-1000 features a lighted keypad that is easy to read in dark conditions and offers Chime, Instant, and Delay modes. It runs on AC power with nine-volt alkaline battery backup (battery included), and provides a helpful low-battery indicator to prevent a loss of power.

Tools and Hardware Reviews of Skylink SC-1000 Complete Wireless Alarm System
Customer Review: SKYLINK SC1000
Summary: 5 Stars
I recently had my front door kicked in while the wife and I were away at work. Fortunately we were not cleaned out and the only thing missing was my wife's jewelery box. After replacement of the door I thought it best to purchase an alarm system. While doing some research and understanding that you either pay for monitoring at the tune of [...] dollars a month and get the system install with a 2 year contract for monitoring services ([...] for 2 yrs), which by the way consists of a phone call out by the alarm system that is answered by your monitor service, then they call your house and any other #'s to find out weather or not it may be a false alarm, if not a false alarm, they send a person to your residence to verify the alarm (by now maybe 1/2 hr or more has passed), then they call the police, fire, rescue, or what ever may be needed (in my case it was 15 minutes to get the police to my house, and that was only because it was a high priority call because I have guns in the house, it would have been much longer for police to answer a call for a simple break in call). By now your house could be burnt down, cleaned out by the thieves, etc. So left with this information, and knowing that a 45 minute response time in the best circumstance w/the addition of having to pay [...] a month I soon realized that I would not be going down that road. I should also mention that I haven't had a hard wired phone since I bought it in 2001. I don't have kids and my wife and I have always had cell phones so I saw no reason to pay [...] a month to a system that wont even let me call to the next zip code w/o charging me long distance. I do however have a home phone, I think I pay [...] a month for it. It uses a internet connection with a router and so the phone works even if the computers are shut off, and has no long distance charges for the most part. That being said, my research led me to Skylink. I ordered the SC-1000 and the SC-10 systems. The system is modular so buy what you need, and upgrade as you wish. The SC-1000 has 1 control panel with siren, 1 emergency dialer, 1 motion sensor, 2 door sensors, and 1 remote control. As I needed at least 3 door sensors and 2 remotes, I also purchased the SC-10 which gives you 1 remote siren, 2 remotes, and 2 door sensors. I ordered from Amazon at about 5:00pm Friday and received the order Sat. at about 10:00am ([...] shipping in my case, but wow, at my door in 17hrs).
So now on with the install and set-up. The system has all wireless sensors. The control panel, dialer, and additional siren (SC-10) all have plug in power supplies so they need to be close enough to an outlet (they have battery back-up but I don't think they would make it more than a day and maybe less). I my case I found it easiest to set up everything on a table, with nothing mounted, and get the sensors, sirens, dialer, motion sensor, and remotes programmed to the control panel. It is a little taxing but It was done in about an hour (I did have to refer to the web and Skylik's website to get it done as the manuals only describe a single system install, IE: dialer, control panel, additional siren to work by themselves and not to be one system all working off the control panel). Once done and tested on the table it was time to install. This was simple. Find locations to mount various sensors, panels, sirens, and dialer in appropriate locations and install them. In total, I spent approximately 5 hrs on set-up and install, this included testing the system in "chime mode" and verifying full functionality.
To address some of the reviews I have read, This is my response:
The Skyline products provide security for a fraction of the cost of the traditional security systems.
It is designed for the do it yourself crowd. You plan it, set it up, install it, and monitor it.
It is expandable to fit most peoples needs and circumstances.
I got a 15% break on my home owners insurance and it only cost me an afternoon and [...]
I can respond to my alarm in 10 minutes (work 10 min away from my house), the others charge you to respond and take much longer.
All security systems have a flaw, and none of them will prevent a break in. At best will call someone who in turn can call the police/fire dept. once on site.
If you have an existing security system you can purchase just the dialer and alarm sensor to monitor it yourself (and save some money on your home owners insurance).
The system will not notify you of open doors and windows when you arm it because of the wireless sensors (cannot run open/closed signal by battery 24/7) or the batteries would die in a matter of days. You have to verify all windows/doors are closed and locked if you want them to be closed or locked, as the alarm system will set regardless and only recognizes a change of any sensor (I think you could close a door that was open when the system was armed and set the alarm off).
The system will not tell you what sensor set the alarm off and I wouldn't expect that it would for a system that costs a fraction of the norm.
To sum it up I would like to say "A much needed product that offers many applications at a reasonable price."
