The PGST PG106 alarm panel offers versatile wireless protection: a 4.3-inch touchscreen, full or part arming, and alerts by SMS, call and app.
PGST PG106: a versatile alarm panel
The PGST PG106 panel sits above the entry-level PG103. It can be operated from its 4.3-inch colour touchscreen, by remote control, RFID tag, SMS or from the mobile app, and it controls PGST wireless accessories: remote controls, detectors, RFID tags, a wireless siren and smart plugs.
When an alarm goes off, it sounds the audible alert, sends an SMS to and calls up to 5 numbers, and forwards the alert to the app if it is connected to Wi-Fi.
PGST PG106: features and protection modes
The PG106 offers three modes: full arm, part arm and disarm. In part-arm mode, only the detectors set for this mode, such as those on doors and windows, stay active while you are at home. Each detector is given a zone type: part arm, full arm, 24 hours (SOS button, smoke, gas, CO, water leak), closed or doorbell.
The panel also reports mains power cuts, a low backup battery, removal from its bracket, and doors or windows left open when arming. Its 1,000 mAh lithium backup battery takes over during a power cut.
PGST PG106: installation
Place the panel in a central, protected location in your home. Then pair each accessory from the “Parts” menu on the screen: no wiring is needed between devices.

PGST PG106 panel: everyday versatility
The PG106 panel is the mid-range model in the PGST range. It suits medium to large houses and flats that want a touchscreen, part arming and control by SMS or app. It communicates wirelessly with its accessories, without wiring.
