Hello,

Courtesy and respect for my time and efforts is greatly appreciated. Please work with me until I can either help you or opt-out. Thanks!

 

This means "fail to comunicate" The system must have been monitored at some point but is now not being monitored.

What are you refering to as the splitter? Do they just have the alarm plugged into a regular phone jack?

Phone line goes into one of the pigtail lines, the other pigtail plugs into the phone. The bottom of the Y had green red black and yellow wires connected to it that goes to the alarm box. It is a BW-1 connector

The ted and green should be connected to the alarm and the yellow and black connect to your house phones (return)
