A device for verification of a user, the device being in communication with a security base station of a premises security system. The device comprises processing circuitry, which is configured to receive, from the security base station, security system data associated with user activity at a premises monitored by the premises security system; generate at least one verification question associated with the user activity; and based on a user response to the at least one verification question, one of grant and deny access to the user to a user account.
According to some embodiments, a premise device for monitoring in a premises monitoring system is provided. The premises device comprises at least one switching element that is switchable between a first position and second position, an electromechanical switch that is triggerable to a closed position by a magnetic field, an alignment indicator configured to indicate the electromechanical switch is aligned for monitoring, a sensor, and a power element. In response to the at least one switching element being in the first position, the at least one switching element is configured to: electrically connect the alignment indicator and power element to the electromechanical switch, electrically disconnect the sensor from the electromechanical switch; and in response to the electromechanical switch being triggered to the closed position by the magnetic field, the alignment indicator is configured to emit visual, audio and/or haptic feedback based on alignment of the electromechanical switch for monitoring.
An apparatus and method are described. In at least one embodiment, a premises monitoring system for monitoring a premises is provided. The premises monitoring system comprises a premises device and a power device comprising a rectifier in electrical communication with the premises device. The premises device comprises a video capture element configured to capture video and processing circuitry configured to, in response to a modular wireless transmitter not being removably connected to the premises device, cause transmission of the captured video to the power device via the at least one wired connection. When the modular wireless transmitter is removably connected to the power device, the power device is configured to cause, in response to receiving the captured video, transmission of the captured video via the modular wireless transmitter.
A premises control unit in communication with at least one battery operated sensor of a premises security system is provided. The premises control unit includes processing circuitry configured to configure at least one parameter for the at least one battery operated sensor where the configuration of the at least one parameter is based at least on data collected by the premises security system, and the at least one parameter includes at least sleep cycles for the at least one battery operated sensor.
A method, node, wireless device and installation device are disclosed. In one or more embodiments, a node configured to operate a security virtual local area network (VLAN) and a customer VLAN independent from the security VLAN is provided. The security VLAN is configured to operate using a first network partition different from a second network partition used by the customer VLAN. The node includes processing circuitry configured to receive information from a first device requesting access to the node, determine whether to add a first device to the security VLAN based at least on the received information from the first device meeting a predefined criterion, and configure the first device to access one of the security VLAN and customer VLAN based at least on the determination.
