If you were notified via email, in-app notification or by a Epic Alarm team member of a possible crash & smash” event, triggered an alarm notification. Looking at history, it appears that the front door was opened while the panel was armed. However, our monitoring station never received a signal from the panel regarding either a disarm or an alarm (these would be signals that our monitoring station is expecting to receive after the door opened)
Some troubleshooting steps would be to check the signal strength. The panel’s signal strength is very low and is the likely culprit in this case. The panel’s signalling was too low to send the necessary signal to our monitoring station, hence triggering the algorithm. This would also account for the comm error messages you started receiving.
