The present invention is directed to a method and system for installing and programming a network interface module within a security system. A security programming system may be implemented from a computing device connected over a network with the network interface module. The computing device may communicate with a server storing components of the security programming system. The security programming system may include user interface components located on the server and accessible through a browser of the computing device to enable selection of a network interface module participating in the security system and selection of a security system application program. The system may additionally include one or more programming applications located on the server for programming the selected network interface module to operate within the security system, wherein the programming application is selectable from the user browser of the computing device.

System and method for installation of network interface modules

Embodiments of the invention relate to premise, fire, security, or access control systems and their associated communication devices that can receive data routing commands from a security programming or monitoring center, and to a lesser extent, those devices that receive and transmit those data routing commands. The data routing command may instruct the premise communication device to route data to a specific destination address. The data routing commands may instruct the premise communication device to redirect, repeat, or send the data to multiple destinations. More specifically, the data routing command may instruct the premise communication device to route audio/video (A/V) data streams or files to a specified server, monitoring center, or other security address destination. By intelligently routing incoming data to a specific location on command, the data can be redirected to areas of greatest need. This technique enables the monitoring center to process the incoming data efficiently.
