Finally! ActiveHome and
Protector Plus Home Security
Go
Hand-in-Hand!
It's
happened to everyone at some point or another.
You leave the house, then begin wondering, did I leave the garage door
open? Did I close my bedroom window? Did I arm my home security system?
Did my kids get home from school safely? The worry wells up in your
head. Sometimes you may even turn around to go home to double check.
Well
it's time to end the worry and hassle!
This is the moment X10 home automation fans and security fans alike
have been waiting for! Introducing OnAlert, the latest, greatest
software module for ActiveHome Pro! Finally, the power of ActiveHome
has joined forces with Protector Plus, X10's award-winning wireless
security system!
Never
before have X10 security modules been able to communicate with ActiveHome
or ActiveHome
Pro automation software.
But that has all changed! OnAlert allows
Protector
Plus
to integrate seamlessly with
ActiveHome
or
ActiveHome
Pro.
What do we mean?
Essentially, now not only can your security modules trigger your
X10
security system,
but they can also function the same as home automation modules by
triggering events. That's not all! You can even check the status of
your security modules like the
DS10A
Window/Door Sensor
over the Internet with
ActiveHome
or
ActiveHome
Pro
and
myHouse
Online!
It's two perfect systems
coming together as one!
* Get instant e-mail notification when your security system is armed or
disarmed
* Security modules can now trigger home automation events
* Forget to turn your system on when you left the house - arm it over
the Internet from your office
* Ensure your security system is running properly - get notification
when your security modules are low on batteries
* And Get This: You no longer need a Protector Plus to use Protector
Plus Security Modules like the
DS10A
Window/Door Sensor!
* You can even tell a camera to pan towards the precise position where
a like the
DS10A
Window/Door Sensor
is tripped!
System
Requirements: OnAlert
requires
ActiveHome
or
ActiveHome
Pro.
Designed to work on Windows based personal computers with one available
USB port, and an Internet connection to download software and
program updates. This product is not intended to be a Security System,
but a monitoring system.
With OnAlert, you'll be able to use your
KR10A
Keychain Remote
to arm/disarm your security system and trigger automation events! You
can even customize multiple remotes to trigger different events with
the use of
X10
Smart Macro Software Module
available sepreatly. For example, when you park your car in the garage
and hit disarm, your security system will disarm, the garage lights
will come on and the TV room fan will come on all by itself. When your
wife comes home and parks in the driveway, her remote will disarm the
system, turn on the
PR511
floodlights
in the driveway and turn on the radio in the kitchen.
Unleash the POWER of your
DS10A
Window/Door Sensor!
When tripped, they can both trigger your home security system and/or
trigger home automation events with the use of
X10
Smart Macro Software Module
available separately. With OnAlert, you can even check a sensor's
battery status to ensure that your system will function properly when
you need it most!
Mount a
DS10A
Window/Door Sensor
on the front door so you hear a chime every time the door is opened.
Mount one on your garage door, so you receive an e-mail alert if the
door is opened or closed. Set one on the bathroom door, so your light
and fan come on when you enter the bathroom, and off again when you
leave! The uses are endless!
Customize your Security
Keychain Remotes!
Each
KR10A
Keychain Remote
has a separate ID code, so you can customize each remote. That means
you'll know who armed or disarmed your security system, and at exactly
what time they did so. You can even get an instant time-stamped e-mail
when your alarm is armed/disarmed or triggered.
* Know what time your spouse or teen came home at night
* Know your kids safely got home from school
* Give a remote to hired help, so you know what time they arrived and
left your home
Personalize your settings!
You can also program each individual
KR10A
Keychain Remote
to activate different functions. For example, if your wife is the first
person to leave in the morning, when she hits disarm on her Keychain
Remote, the system will disarm and the outdoor lighting that was on all
night will shut off. If you are the last person to leave, when you hit
arm, your security system will arm and all your interior lights will
turn off. With the use of
X10
Smart Macro Software Module
available separately.
You can even have different settings for your kids when they get home
from school, or the maid or handy man when they come to work on your
home. And each time your system is armed or disarmed, you will receive
an e-mail letting you know which remote was used and what time it was
used at!
OnAlert FAQ - All Your
Questions Answered:
Q:
Will OnAlert allow me to use security modules even if I don't have
Protector Plus?
A: Yes! Even without Protector Plus, your
MS10A
Motion Detectors,
DS10A
Window/Door Sensor
and
KR10A
Keychain Remote
can still trigger home automation events (macros)! With the use of
X10
Smart Macro Software Module
available separately.
Q: Will my
DS10A
Window/Door Sensor
trigger lights and appliances?
A: Yes! With OnAlert, your
DS10A
Window/Door Sensor
can now trigger any X10 modules - something they could never do before!
Q: How will I know who armed or disarmed my alarm system?
A: Each
KR10A
Keychain Remote
has a separate code, so you will know exactly who armed/disarmed your
system, and at what time they did so! If you have myHouse Online, you
can even get e-mailed every time this takes place!
Q: What do you mean by "customizable remotes"?
A: Since each
KR10A
Keychain Remote
has a different code, you can program each remote for different
functions. For example, if you're the last person to leave the house in
the morning, when you hit arm on your remote, your security system will
arm and all your lights will turn off. When you get home after dark,
when you hit disarm, your porch light and front hallway light will come
on and your security system will disarm. The settings can be different
for your spouse and kids. It's up to you!
Q: Can I check online to see if all my doors or windows are shut?
A: Yes! As long as you have
DS10A
Window/Door Sensors
on your entrances and
myHouse
Online
(sold separately), you can check the status of your doors and windows
over the Internet from anywhere in the world!
Q: Can I arm my security system over the Internet?
A: You sure can! You can arm your system via the Internet with
myHouse
Online
(sold separately)
from anywhere in the world!
Q: Do I need
ActiveHome
or
ActiveHome
Pro
to use OnAlert?
A: OnAlert is a software plug-in for ActiveHome, so yes, you do
need
ActiveHome
or
ActiveHome
Pro
in order to run OnAlert.
