Answer This Question
A: Dave99, the base unit does have a back up battery so that the intruder may not unplug the system or cut the power. the system as tamperproof technology so if an intruder were to unplug the alarm while it was armed, it would instantly send a signal stating there is a break in.
As for a remote horn and photos question, the system is unable to do this but the main system has a siren and strobe built in.
