I interested in buying an alarm system KERUI W193

some questions:

1. How can read ingoing messages in the inserted SIM?

or must I take out the SIM to check sometime validity and credit on the SIM and for this insert SIM In a phone?

This is important, as the provider sent a message if validity and / or credit ends. If SIM in the phone I see it and also can easily check it with code.

If it in the alarm system and I have no control, maybe the system doesn't respond to an alarm
?

1) Unable to accept incoming sms.

2) Either you install an apps from your SIM Card telco to monitor the expired date and balance, otherwise need to remove the SIM card,slot it into a phone to check balance & expiry.

3) Incase your credit in the SIM card expired or runs low & unable to call to your pre-programme number, it will still use the wifi to sent alarm notifications to your mobile W19 apps.

Also, with any PAYG SIM you would have likely registered an account online with the network provider. I don't know about yours, but some you can set up to alert you (e.g. by email) if your balance is low, or you could set it up to 'auto-top-up'....... Either way, from the website you can see your balance. I would have thought it would take a fair while to eat through a £10 top-up, depending on what alerts you have and how often the alarm goes off, so you wouldn't have to keep checking every day.
