A language device is described. A language device includes processing circuitry configured to: determine an urgency level of a message based at least in part on a natural language processing (NLP) model; determine a priority of an event associated with the message based at least in part on the urgency level; and order the message relative to a plurality of other messages in a customer queue based at least in part on the priority of the event associated with the message.

Analyzing monitoring system events using natural language processing (NLP)

A controller and method for a premises system are provided. The controller includes processing circuitry configured to: receive a plurality of system setting groups for controlling a plurality of premises devices where each system setting group including at least one respective device setting for each of the plurality of premises devices, determine at least one setting characteristic, the at least one setting characteristic including a calendar date, and select one of the plurality of system settings groups for controlling the plurality of premises devices based on the determined at least one setting characteristic. The controller includes a transceiver configured to transmit a control signal to each of the plurality of premises devices to control the plurality of premises devices according to the selected one of the plurality of system setting groups.

User scene and schedule creation based on time of the year

A control device and method for monitoring a premises are provided. The control device is in communication with a plurality of premises devices. The control device includes processing circuitry configured to: receive premises data from at least one of the plurality of premises device and determine whether the premises data meet an alarm condition. The processing circuitry is further configured to, if the premises data meets an alarm condition: monitor for identification data from a wireless device not associated with the control device, receive identification data from the wireless device and perform at least one detection function based on the identification data.

Detecting an intruder's wireless device during a break in to a premises

A security system includes at least one audio sensor and an alarm panel that transmits alarm report data through a communications network to at least one alarm receiver located at a central station remote from the premises that receives the alarm report data transmitted from the alarm panel through the communications network. A line card receives the alarm report data. An alarm receiver processor receives and processes regulated alarm report data in accordance with Underwriter Laboratories 1610 requirements. The line card is operable for receiving non-regulated alarm report data that is not regulated in accordance with Underwriter Laboratories 1610 requirements. The line card includes a secondary communications channel interfaced to a central station automation system and routes the regulated alarm report data to the central station automation system over the secondary communications channel and bypasses the alarm receiver processor.

System and method for monitoring security at a premises using line card with secondary communications channel

Digital audio sensors receive and digitize audio signals and transmit the digitized signals to a central monitoring station for monitoring by an operator. The system can allow load balancing and other improvements.

System and method for monitoring security at a premises

A security system includes at least one audio sensor and alarm panel, each located at a premises and generating alarm report data through a communications network to at least one alarm receiver located at a central station remote from the premises. A line card receives the alarm report data. An alarm receiver processor receives and processes regulated alarm report data in accordance with Underwriter Laboratories 1610 requirements. A line card is operable for receiving non-regulated alarm report data that is not regulated in accordance with Underwriter Laboratories 1610 requirements and establishing a bi-directional link for the non-regulated alarm report data between any central station automation system and the alarm panel at the premises until the bi-directional link is no longer required.

System and method for monitoring security at a premises using line card

A security system includes at least one audio sensor located at a premises that receives audio signals and converts the audio signals to digitized audio signals. A server is located remote from the plurality of premises and receives the digitized audio signals from each of the premises. A plurality of clients are in communication with the server, which is operative for selecting the client for receiving digitized audio signals for a selected premises. The client is operative for converting the digitized audio signals from the selected premises into audio for an operator that is monitoring the premises.
