How far away are you from the Cerbo? The alarm is in the Cerbo and not in the screen.

Well that is a bad design - if you can put a speaker in an iphone surely you have room in something bigger than an iphone for a loud alarm. Voice announcement would be helpful as well. The cerbo is located in a cabinet.

You can use a relay on the Cerbo to switch an external buzzer that you can mount where you want it.

When connected to internet, you can also have the system send out emails.
