Remote notification of alarms improves security. When an alarm is detected by a security system, a notification message is sent to notify a user or emergency responder. If video data is requested, only certain locations are permitted access to outputs from cameras.

Methods, systems, and products for security systems

Methods, systems, and products are disclosed for notification of alarms in security systems. An alarm is detected in a security system. An alarm code is associated to a camera, and video data is retrieved from the camera. An alarm notification address is retrieved and the video data is sent to the IP alarm notification address.

Methods, systems, and products for security services

A system and a method for completing over a communication switching system a series of short duration calls directed to a common destination and initiated from a plurality of sources connected to a call queuing apparatus linked to the communication switching system. When the dedicated link from the call queuing apparatus to the communication switching system is in use, subsequent calls in the series are queued. Without relinquishing control of the link, these calls are thereafter connected to the communication switching system, preferably on a first-come first-serve basis. The invention allows the overhead of call setup, both cost and setup time, to be spread over the entire series of calls, as opposed to being borne by each call in the series.
