enhancing "chime" mode with annunciator
Other alarm systems have an annunciator in their "chime" mode when the alarm is disabled. When "chime" is activated, not only does it beep but it says which perimeter sensor was triggered. For example, it would go "ding" then state "garage door" when someone opens the garage door. Since Simplisafe has the ability to announce which sensor is triggered during the test mode, why can't they incorporate this feature into the "chime" mode? When I'm home and the alarm is disabled, it's nice to hear the base unit announce which perimeter sensor was triggered, rather than just the "ding" and wonder which door was opened. A customer rep emailed me once stating that it sends a notification to the phone, but I don't think that's true when it's disabled. Besides, I rarely have my phone on when I'm at home anyway so would prefer having the base unit loudly announce which sensor was triggered. I don't think it would take a lot of lines of code to program this feature into the base unit.
