Release Notes
Motorola Home Monitoring & Control System
This document provides a new software enhancement available to
download. For the latest information, go to the following website:
www.motorola.com/homemonitoring.
Be sure to register your product with Motorola so we can notify
you of available updates and product enhancements.
Connecting the USB Gateway
The USB Gateway should be plugged directly into a USB port on your
PC. The Home Monitoring & Control System is not optimized for use
with USB 2.0 hubs and laptop docking stations. In some instances,
connecting the USB Gateway into a USB 2.0 hub or laptop docking
station causes the software to periodically lose communication with
the USB Gateway.
Update Applicability
A required software update applies to you if your Motorola Home
Monitor & Control (HM&C) System was purchased after
September 1, 2004.
Update Description
A new remote notification feature now resolves how different cellular
telephone service providers send activity notifications by e-mail from
your HM&C System. For cellular providers that do not notify you when
a new e-mail arrives, the HM&C System now sends both a text message
and an e-mail containing a still-image capture to your cellular telephone.
You are immediately notified when a text message is received on your
cell phone. Upon receipt of the text message, simply check your e-mail
to view the still image. This new feature can also be used to send
notifications to multiple e-mail addresses.
