A method and device for providing status of a security system to a user by a remote indication device in response an external stimulus. A status request trigger signal is generated as a result of the stimulus, and status data is then retrieved from an externally located central control unit in response to the status request trigger signal. The status data is then presented via the remote indication device to the user, either by providing a visual display or sounding an audible representation of the status data. The external stimulus may be the motion of a user within proximity of the remote indication device, and the generating of a status request trigger signal may includes the detecting of the motion of the user by a motion detector such as a PIR or a microwave detector.
