I purchased the AAS-500 system, which appears to be the same as the 600, but with fewer sensors. The installation instructions were perfectly clear. All the door sensors came with the batteries already installed, which was nice. The motion detectors came with the (9v) batteries, and were easily installed. I got this system to replace a 1996 system from Radio Shack which had failed. A major difference with this system (in addition to the much better quality) is that the outside siren can be mounted without worrying about physically connecting it to the console.
Prior to installing sensors I read the entire instruction manual then made a list (map) of what was going to be installed, and where, and numbered each sensor per the instructions. I wrote the numbers on each sensor. I then activated each one and tested them, one by one to make sure everything worked properly. Then, I mounted each sensor per the map I had made. One of the door sensors failed to work. This is when I discovered that the magnet must be placed on the right side of the sensor containing the antenna. I removed the sensor and replaced the backing with one of the extra sensors and mounted it with the antenna pointing down. I should have tested this aspect before actually mounting it and ruining the sticky tape.
The motion detectors have a one page instruction sheet, which really does not need to be read. If you do read it, you will find it pretty choppy; very poor English.
In summary, this is an excellent product, very good quality, good instructions and a major step forward in terms of technology over the system I was previously using. |

| I purchased the AAS Wireless 600 as a cost effective method of protecting my property without the cost of a monthly charge and to get the components I really wanted. I got enough components to have some spares, should they be necessary in the future. The system arrived in a timely manner and I made a general map of where I wanted the components installed. I laid the system out on the kitchen table and labeled them so that I knew exactly where they were to go. The programming of the controller was extremely easy and the installation was straightforward. The system performs better than I expected and I am more than satisfied with my purchase. I really like the fact that the system will call my cell from the land line in the house and tell me that something has set the system off. The American Alarm System rewards customers for a 4 star or 5 star rating, but I am truly satisfied with system and recommend it to my friends and family. I think it is every bit as good as the expensive systems, without the monthly charge and contracts.. |

I purchased this product and it is above and beyond it's price! Unbelievable how inexpensive this product is and yet amazingly good! So many features and so easy to install and work with that it makes monitoring my house wonderful. I have looked around for other wireless alarm systems but none is comparable to this one. This one gives 25 door/window elements which is gr8 since I have many doors and windows. Other ones were so expensive. The only thing I would like to see is the small high pitched alarm wireless instead of wired to the control pad, but it does come with a less decibel alarm wireless.
Thank you for a GREAT product. Just don't increase the price any more because I bought this one for 250 2 months ago and raved about it to my friends but they said that the price went up. |

| I was unsure if I could put this system in our house. It came with good directions on how to program the alarm system, but nothing to tell me what each component did and how and where to put the sensors. But not to worry, with the toll free number, the dealer was most helpful in educating me as how to do everything and make it work. The alarm works great, sometimes we forget to turn it off with the remote and it goes off when the door is opened. "Extremely LOUD". I like the way it lets you hook it up to the phone and it calls you when in alarm condition. No phone call all day, then everything is ok and secure. The sensors and motion detector even work in the storage building I have over 100 feet from the house. By numbering the sensors you know where the alarm is, as it appears on the alarm system panel. This is a good value alarm for the low price. I would recommend it to anyone. |

| System was simple to set up and works well. Did have a problem with the keypad siren, but the company expediciously send a replacement part to resolve the problem. For the price it appears to be a very good value and a good system. I believe I will be well pleased with it and would recommend it to any do it your selfer. |
