The Smanos X300 itself is a white, router-look-alike product which sits on a small base station. There is an SOS button atop it, which can trigger the alarm manually if you should ever need to and there is a clear plastic section in the top right for indicator LEDs.
The back of the unit incorporates speaker grills.
To access the ports for inputting the required Sim-card and other connectors for power and USB data, you have to remove the base. When in use, that base is pressed against an anti-tamper sensor, which will trigger if someone attempts to mess with the alarm system by removing it.
The motion sensor is a white plastic box just a few inches long, with a convex sensor area in the centre and a visible pull tab for the internal batteries, so that they are not drained by the time your new alarm system reaches you.
The back features a clip area that lets you connect it to a rotatable wall mount (also included).
Inside you will find the sensor equipment, as well as a pair of pre-wired batteries that can be turned on by simply removing the pull tab.
The other included sensor is for proximity, which lets you know whether a door or window has been opened by attaching one part of the set up to each component. That way when they are separated by the movement of the opening door or window, you can know about it.
The pair of remote controls are identical and feature basic push-button commands for locking down the alarm system, unlocking it and triggering the SOS alarm.
The final accessories for this system are the swivel mount for the motion sensor, and a power cable for the Smanos X300 system itself.
