Abstract

Systems and methods include an automation network comprising a gateway at a premises. The gateway is coupled to a remote network and is configured to control components at the premises including at least one of a thermostat and a lock. A sensor user interface (SUI) is coupled to the gateway and presented to a user via remote client devices. The SUI includes display elements for managing and receiving data of the components agnostically across the remote client devices. The display elements include an interactive icon comprising control regions. Each control region is configured to control a state change of a corresponding component.

Abstract

Systems and methods include an automation network comprising a gateway located at/in a premises. The gateway is coupled to a remote network and is configured to control components at the premises including premises devices and a security system comprising security system components. The components include at least one camera. A sensor user interface (SUI) is coupled to the gateway and presented to a user via remote client devices. The SUI includes a display elements for managing and receiving data of the premises components agnostically across the remote client devices. The display elements include a timeline user interface comprising event data of the components positioned at a time corresponding to events.

Abstract

Embodiments include systems and methods comprising a gateway located at a premise forming at least one network on the premise that includes a plurality of premise devices. A sensor user interface (SUI) is coupled to the gateway and presented to a user via a remote device. The SUI includes at least one display element. The at least one display element includes a floor plan display that represents at least one floor of the premise. The floor plan display visually and separately indicates a location and a current state of each premise device of the plurality of premise devices.

• H04L 12/66 - Arrangements for connecting between networks having differing types of switching systems, e.g. gateways

Abstract

Some embodiments of a method for premises management networking include monitoring premises management devices connected to a gateway at a premises; controlling premises management devices connected to the gateway at the premises; receiving, at the premises, an uplink-initiation signal associated with a network operations center server; and in response to the uplink- initiation signal, initiating, from the gateway at the premises, communications between the gateway and the network operations center server; and communicating, during the communications between the gateway and the network operations center server, information associated with the premises management devices.
