Home Automation PC Access, What You Hear If Your OmniPro II Calls You, Entering the Code

Page 50

After it has dialed the last number in the dial order, the OmniPro II stops dialing and reconnects the in-house phones.

What You Hear - If Your OmniPro II Calls You

When you pick up the phone and say something, the OmniPro II will say one of the following, depending on type of alarm:

-BURGLAR ALARM

-FIRE ALARM

-AUXILIARY ALARM

-TEMPERATURE ALARM

-WATER ALARM

-GAS ALARM

-SILENT ALARM

AND

-ADDRESS: (Your address here)

-PHONE NUMBER (your phone number here)

The OmniPro II will repeat this message twice.

Entering the Code

At any time during the message you can enter the Master or Manager code, simply by pressing the digits on the keypad of a Touch-Tone phone. The OmniPro II will stop talking when it hears any digit from a touch tone phone. (When it is saying the address, the OmniPro II completes the entire address before it stops talking.)

If you enter the correct Master or Manager code, you will then be logged in (a remote phone access is logged in the event log) and further dial outs are canceled.

You will hear the status of the system, which will describe the type of alarm and the zones tripped, for example:

BURGLAR ALARM ACTIVATED: ZONE 1 - ENTRY EXIT - TRIPPED; ZONE 3 - DAY INTERIOR - TRIPPED:

Then the OmniPro II will read the Main Menu as described in Telephone Control. You can press 0 to hear the menu. At this point, you are in control, just as if you had called your system.

A strategy to follow if you are called by your system is to check the Status (6 on the telephone) to see what mode the system is in, and which zones were tripped. Press * to cancel out of the status mode. You may wish to check the Event Log (7) to see when each event happened. Then, press * to exit the event log.

Now press 9 (good-bye) to make the OmniPro II hang up. Hang up your phone and call your premises to be sure that it wasn't someone who has forgotten their code. If not, call the police.

If someone properly disarms the system while the called party is logged in, then the status message will go back to "SECURITY MODE IS OFF - SYSTEM OK" as described in Telephone Control.

If a reportable event (an alarm, cancel, etc.) occurs while you are talking to your OmniPro II, it will hang up on you to communicate the event to the central station.

PC Access

OmniPro II is capable of communicating with an IBM compatible personal computer (PC). The PC can be local (in-house) or remote. The PC must be equipped with a modem or serial port and running PC Access software. The OmniPro II has a built-in modem and can be accessed over the telephone or over a direct serial connection (RS-232/RS-485 through either the built-in or optional serial interface module). If you wish to use your PC to configure, program, and check the status of your OmniPro II, contact your dealer for the appropriate software for your PC.

II specifications

Home Automation II represents the next evolution in smart home technology, providing users with greater flexibility, convenience, and security through advanced features and integrated systems. This smart home revolution focuses on the seamless interaction of devices and the automation of daily tasks, ultimately enhancing the overall living experience.

One of the key features of Home Automation II is interoperability among a wide range of devices. This enables homeowners to control lights, thermostats, security cameras, and other appliances from a single platform. Whether through smartphones, tablets, or voice-activated assistants, users can easily manage their home environment, monitor energy consumption, and receive real-time notifications. This level of integration not only simplifies operation but also creates a more cohesive smart home ecosystem.

Another significant aspect of Home Automation II is the use of artificial intelligence and machine learning. These technologies learn a homeowner’s habits and preferences, allowing the system to adapt automatically. For example, the thermostat can adjust temperatures based on the time of day and occupancy patterns, while lighting systems can simulate human presence when residents are away. This not only enhances comfort but also contributes to energy efficiency, leading to potential cost savings in utility bills.

Home Automation II offers enhanced security features as well. Smart locks, surveillance cameras, and motion detectors can all be integrated into the home’s network. This allows homeowners to monitor their property remotely, receive security alerts, and even grant access to visitors through mobile apps. Biometric security options, such as facial recognition, are also becoming more common, adding an extra layer of protection.

Furthermore, energy management technologies are a hallmark of Home Automation II. Smart plugs and sensors monitor energy use, providing insights to homeowners about how to reduce consumption. Advanced systems can even automate energy distribution, shifting usage to off-peak hours to alleviate strain on local grids and maximize efficiency.

Finally, voice control has become a prominent feature in Home Automation II, allowing users to operate devices hands-free. Integration with voice-activated platforms like Amazon Alexa, Google Assistant, and Apple Siri adds another layer of convenience, making it easy to control multiple aspects of the home with simple voice commands.

In conclusion, Home Automation II represents a significant step forward in creating intelligent spaces that are responsive to the needs of their users. Through the integration of cutting-edge technologies, enhanced security measures, energy management, and intuitive control options, the concept of a smart home is evolving into a more accessible and efficient reality.
