The alarm control panel product manufacturer Pyronix has added voice push notifications to the iOS and Android versions of its ProControl+ software, which allows users to control their alarms from a mobile device, whether set or unset alarms or do video verification of an alarm from Wi-Fi cameras. A user doesn’t have to do anything. This feature is available now; users may have even already received them for events on their systems.
Laurence Kenny, Pyronix Marketing Manager, said: “We’ve listened to market demands and this is a feature that was very much sought, so we are very pleased to implement this.”
If there is an alarm, or when the system is set or unset, or an event is triggered by any Pyronix life safety devices integrated into the system, such as the SMOKE-WE, CO-WE or the HUD/MED-WE, the user will receive a voice push notification that will get their attention.
Laurence Kenny said: “This feature adds value to ProControl+, without any additional cost or action required. Voice push notifications deliver a unique selling point, that differentiates your business from any other on the intruder market. Whether it is a panic alarm, a smoke detector, a break in or as simple as children coming home from school, ProControl+ now audibly keeps the user informed, so that they can remain in complete control.”
If an installer’s users do not receive push notifications, and would like to now receive them with an audible voice, the installer can enable them in the PyronixCloud account.
