International Classification:

G08B 29/04

Abstract:

An apparatus and method for determining at least one operational condition of a premises based system including at least one premises device. The apparatus includes a processor configured to perform a diagnostic procedure. The diagnostic procedure includes determining operational data of the premises based system, the operational data indicating at least one of a premises device and the apparatus is operating outside a failure range and performing predictive analysis based at least in part on the received operational data. The predictive analysis indicates whether the at least one of premises device and apparatus is likely to operate within the failure range within a predefined period of time. The diagnostic procedure includes causing a notification alert to be transmitted to at least one of a user interface device and remote monitoring center based on the predictive analysis.

US Classification:

715741

Abstract:

An apparatus is provided for controlling access to a premises based system through a user interface device. Criteria are used for establishing a set of system functions that are accessible through the user interface device; and this set of system function is provided by determining an access characteristic associated with the user interface device, comparing the access characteristic to the criteria, and determine the set of system functions to provide the user interface based at least in part on the comparison. The criteria may be defined by an access profile containing a predetermined set of system functions. The access characteristic may include physical location of the user interface device, connection type, device type, and a device identifier. The set of functions may be automatically provided to the user interface device upon with a prompt to arm/disarm the system, and/or control other devices, such as through geo-fencing.

International Classification:

G08B 25/10

US Classification:

34053916

Abstract:

A control apparatus for a premises based system is provided. The control apparatus has an improved memory and processor configuration for separate operation of the life safety and life style code so that the operation of the life style code may be changed without changing the operation of the life safety code, such as through the use of a virtual machine or code running at a single operating system layer. The memory may store life safety code in a first partition and life style code in a second partition. The life style code may be updated while life safety code continues to run.
