FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE.

ITI TECHNOLOGIES, INC. CONFERENCE CALL

ST. PAUL AND PORTLAND -- APRIL 13, 2000
ITI Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ National Market: ITII) and SLC Technologies, Inc.
will host a conference call with analysts at 1:00 p.m. Eastern Time on Tuesday,
April 18, 2000. The audio portion of the conference call will be simulcast over
the Internet at www.streetevents.com. To listen in, log on to
www.streetevents.com and select the "ITI Technologies Live" call, then follow
the onscreen directions. Participation requires that your computer have a sound
card and RealPlayer or MS Media Player. Replays of the audio portion of the
conference call may be accessed through ITI's website at www.itii.com.

An investor presentation will also be filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission prior to the conference call. Copies of this investor presentation,
as well as other information about ITI, will be available prior to the
conference call at the SEC's Internet site at www.sec.gov.

On September 29, 1999, ITI and SLC announced that they had reached a definitive
agreement to merge. In the merger, SLC's outstanding common stock will be
converted into 15,170,640 shares of ITI's common stock. ITI shareholders will
have the right to elect to receive from the newly merged company $36.50 in cash
at closing for each share of ITI stock, subject to the limitation that no more
than 50 percent of the total number of shares of ITI common stock issued and
outstanding immediately prior to the closing be exchanged for cash. If ITI
shareholders elect to exchange more than 50 percent of the aggregate shares of
ITI for cash, then the shares eligible to be exchanged will be reduced on a pro
rata basis so that 50 percent of the issued and outstanding common stock of ITI
immediately prior to the closing is exchanged for cash.

A special stockholders meeting to consider and vote upon a proposal to approve
the merger is scheduled for May 2, 2000. A proxy statement has been mailed to
all stockholders of record as of March 27, 2000, which is the record date for
the special meeting. ITI has filed the proxy statement with the SEC. The proxy
statement contains important information about ITI, SLC and the merger.
Investors and urged to read it carefully. The proxy statement is available free
of charge on the SEC's website, www.sec.gov.

Approval of the merger will require the affirmative vote of a majority of the
shares of ITI common stock outstanding on the record date. Subject to
stockholder approval, we expect the merger to close on or about May 2, 2000.

In addition to the proxy statement, ITI stockholders have been mailed election
forms relating to the cash election discussed above. Election forms are due no
later than 5:00 p.m. central time on May 1, 2000. Detailed instructions will
accompany the election forms.

Copies of the proxy statement and cash election forms may be obtained by calling
