Patent number: 8234658Abstract: The inventive system and method for enabling external applications to display data in the security system has a table with a plurality of rules and an interface for processing the external application data for display, such that when an alert occurs in the security system, one of the rules defines a response to the alert and the device performs the response. This system and method protects the integrity of the security system as well as allows the display of data by external applications on the security system.Type: GrantFiled: December 31, 2007Date of Patent: July 31, 2012Assignee: Honeywell International Inc.Inventor: Gordon Hope

Patent number: 7248161Abstract: Security systems, such as in a home or other building, are interfaced with one another so that alarm messages and other information regarding a first security system are communicated to a second security system. In response, a user at the second system can send commands to the first system, such as for arming or disarming the first system. A user interface device at the second system includes an output component, such as a display screen, for displaying alarm messages from both the first and second systems. Other information, such as video and audio data from the first system, can also be provided at the second system. An input component, such as a keypad, allows the user to enter commands for controlling both the first and second systems. Communication between the security systems may be realized via an RF link, telephone link, and/or computer network.Type: GrantFiled: May 12, 2004Date of Patent: July 24, 2007Assignee: Honeywell International, Inc.Inventors: Michael T. Spoltore, Robert J. Orlando, Robert S. Adonailo, Scott Simon, Gordon Hope

Patent number: 7183907Abstract: A number of different security systems, such as in home or business locations, periodically transmit status data to a remote facility such as a central monitoring station so that it is continuously informed of the security systems' status. The status may relate to an alarm status, armed status, or trouble code status. A user interface at the remote facility provides a spreadsheet format that allows a user to quickly ascertain the status of the security systems, and to send commands to the security systems. The security systems may be controlled individually or in groups, such as to add or delete authorizations. The user interface can filter or sort the information, or obtain further details. Other information, such as video and audio data from a security system, can also be provided to the remote facility for use in the user interface. Information can be recorded for subsequent playback.Type: GrantFiled: October 20, 2004Date of Patent: February 27, 2007Assignee: Honeywell International, Inc.Inventors: Scott Simon, Gordon Hope, William R. Blum

Publication number: 20060119476Abstract: A MEMS (micro-electronic mechanical system) sensor unit is described for wireless security applications that provides an extended battery life for the MEMS sensor unit, to provide both immediate MEMS motion detection, and also an “out of range” detection capability when the MEMS sensor unit is moved beyond the range of a security system receiver, providing both capabilities without an unacceptable reduction in battery life for the MEMS sensor unit.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 23, 2004Publication date: June 8, 2006Applicant: Honeywell International, Inc.Inventor: Gordon Hope

Publication number: 20050149717Abstract: A security system comprising a plurality of security subsystems each of the security subsystems being discretely located, typically in separate buildings. The security subsystems are interconnected by a system communications bus to enable bi-directional communication between the security subsystems. Each of the security subsystems comprises a user interface, a control panel, a plurality of security devices, a local communications bus, and a panel linking gateway. The panel linking gateway allows data on the local communications bus of each security subsystem to be transmitted to and received from the system communications bus. The security system allows a keypad or other user interface from one security subsystem to access and control a second remote security subsystem.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 10, 2005Publication date: July 7, 2005Inventors: Robert Orlando, Scott Simon, Gordon Hope, Damian Tallini, Metin Goklevent, Francis Marino

Patent number: 6804169Abstract: The present invention utilizes the advantages provided by a portable, wearable timepiece such as an electronic wristwatch for integration with a security system and performing various functions as a result of the timekeeping integration. First, the control panel of the security system may be synchronized by the timepiece, either automatically or when selected by a user. Second, the timepiece may be programmed to send certain commands to the control panel at certain times, such as a command to arm the system at 11:00 PM every night. Third, the timepiece can be used to send commands to the control panel on detection of a button press, but only after a countdown delay specified by the user. This gives the user the ability to press a system arm command that would only be sent after a delay of, for example, 15 seconds.Type: GrantFiled: June 7, 2001Date of Patent: October 12, 2004Assignee: Honeywell International Inc.Inventors: Kenneth L. Addy, Gordon Hope, Jr., Edward Daly, Richard Ciervo
