Tyco Security Products introduces the latest version of its VisonicGO mobile application. The multi-national security products firm says that the app puts event-related security decision-making, including images of proceedings as they unfold, into customers’ hands via an Android or iOS smartphone or tablet. The app can be used for self-monitoring as well as to aid monitoring services.
Through the use of cloud-based servers, residential and commercial users with PowerMaster control panels can connect to the VisonicGO app and perform security functions, including remotely arming and disarming systems, managing event history remotely, and receiving data on and responding to device status, such as a door or window left open. Users can customise their event notifications, so that they only receive the data they want without getting overloaded.
VisonicGo offers the ability to get images and text or sound notification based on alarms in real time. With visual verification available on demand, users can make decisions based on what is occurring. Archived images can be forwarded for identification of suspects or sent to insurers for documentation of incidents. The event images and alarm information can also be shared with the user and the monitoring company at the same time, avoiding false alarms.
Aitor Gauna, EMEA Product Marketing Manager, Intrusion, Tyco Security Products, said: “One of the top demands installers are hearing from customers these days is the ability to monitor events remotely, so they can be where the action is even when they are away from their home or business. The VisonicGo app puts information into the hands of the end user, whether it’s a homeowner who wants to monitor his residence via his phone while on vacation or a business customer who wants to oversee and respond to events at any time.”
The VisonicGO app is available through the App Store and Google Play and is usable in 15 languages. Visit www.visonic.com.
