Visonic Powermax Complete GSM only

    Hi,
    Currently we have a PowerMax Complete system connected to a monitoring station using the landline plus a GSM unit sending text to the keyholders.
    I want to get rid of the landline and use GSM only. I contacted the installer and was told this needed to be a call out to first remove the landline and then configure the GSM to be the primary contact.
    I suggested that perhaps the landline didn't need to be disconnected, that this should be a configuration job few minutes or even directions over the phone.

    Is the installer correct, do I need a call out for all that or can I do it myself?
    Anyone done this before?
    Thanks!

    its just a matter of programming out the central station numbersad making the GSM the only active modem.Easy enough for him to do over the phone with you if he wanted.
