Home Automation Server Product Overview
Introduction
The Honeywell Home Automation Server is the core of the Home Automation
system. It allows the user to control security devices, lighting appliances, home
entertainment systems, and heating and cooling devices. The Home Automation
System uses different interface methods to connect to various systems, including RS232C Serial, USB and Ethernet communications. The user can interact with the
Home Automation Server through voice (microphone, phone), a home computer,
and/or a touchpad/keypad.
The Key Features supported by Honeywell Automation System are:
• Control of lighting and electrical appliances.
• Control of media and entertainment devices through a single remote. Allows the
user to view, record, and play media devices (DVD, VCR, Camcorder) or media
sources (SATV, CATV) from different rooms.
• Can be used as a digital answering machine with telephone call management by
customizing messages for Caller-ID.
• Control of the Security System (arming/disarming, and bypassing zones via an
intranet, through voice command and/or using a telephone).
• Control of thermostat temperature settings through voice command, telephone,
and/or via an intranet.
• Logs every event for record and later analyses when selected.
• Updates the news, weather, traffic, sports scores, stock quotes and channel line-
up, either based on a schedule or on demand.
