- Hardwired motion detectors
- Door and window reed switches

Existing equipment should be inspected before installation. Older batteries, damaged cabling, unreliable detectors and worn sirens may need to be replaced as part of the upgrade.

Depending on the system configuration, the RSC+ app can provide:

The B426-M requires a compatible network connection and professional configuration. Internet, data and monitoring-service charges may apply separately.

A compatible wireless receiver and remote controls are required and are not included with this basic upgrade kit. Browse the range of Bosch alarm remote controls.
