Security & Automation in Action
Discover practical examples of how an intelligent Security & Automation System can help protect your home, family and business.
Most people think a security system simply sounds an alarm after someone breaks in.
Security & Automation Systems can do much more.
Depending on the equipment installed and how the system is programmed, they can help detect problems earlier, automate everyday tasks, improve convenience, and assist in protecting your family, home or business.
Below are practical examples showing what may be possible with suitable equipment and programming.

The system can be armed using the mobile app, remote control, keypad, or simply by voice command.
It can also be programmed to arm automatically when no movement has been detected for a set period of time. Before arming, it can send you a notification and play a local voice alert, giving you time to cancel or adjust if needed.
Before or after arming, the system can check selected doors and gates, close the garage door where suitable equipment is installed, turn off selected lighting, and activate other programmed functions.
Coming Home

Early Warning Before Someone Reaches Your Door
Wouldn't it be helpful to know someone is outside before they reach your front door, back door or bedroom windows?
Outdoor detectors can be programmed to turn on selected lights, play a voice alert, send a notification or trigger a full alarm depending on the time of day, alarm mode and other programmed conditions.
Early Warning Long Before Someone Reaches Your Door
AI and thermal cameras can extend detection beyond areas covered by standard alarm detectors connected to the Security & Automation System.

Children don't always stay where they're supposed to.
Selected detectors can monitor restricted areas such as pools, sheds, workshops or driveways. Depending on how the system is programmed, it can play a voice alert, send a notification or trigger an alarm if someone enters those areas.
Looking After Elderly Family Members
Sometimes knowing everything is okay provides valuable peace of mind.
The system can be programmed to send a notification or play a voice alert if no movement has been detected for a programmed period. This may assist families caring for elderly or vulnerable occupants.
