Using Geo-Services with your interactive security system unlocks the power of location automation. When you activate Geo-Services through your smartphone app, your phone effectively becomes an intelligent connected device for your system. By tapping into the real-time location services on your smartphone, you can automate:
- Reminders when you leave your home and forget to arm your security system.
- Adjusting your thermostat to reduce energy waste while you’re away from your home.
- Intelligent lighting throughout your home that can provide both added safety and energy efficiency.
- Notifications if you leave your garage door open or your front door unlocked, with added capability to close and secure these entry points without returning home.
- Much more…
Geo-Services work by combining your smartphone’s location, automation devices and home security sensors, and a Geo-Fence that defines specific locations, such as your home or office. Once a Geo-Fence is created, you can define the system behaviors that you want to be triggered. As your smartphone crosses a Geo-Fence, your system will automatically perform the programmed tasks, making Geo-Services a powerful feature of your interactive security and home automation system.
