Abstract
Methods, systems, and apparatuses for securing property are presented. A premise security system may be placed in a learning mode. Changes in position of a security sensor may be detected and used to set a permitted range of motion for the sensor. Further, a plurality of security sensor profiles may be stored, and each profile may identify a different predefined permitted range of motion of a sensor. The addition of a new sensor to a premise may be detected, and a user may be prompted, on a display, to identify a profile to be used to configure the new sensor.
Claims32
A method comprising:
- determining, by one or more computing devices, an addition of a security sensor;
- causing a user device to output a list of a plurality of security sensor profiles, wherein each of the plurality of security sensor profiles comprises one or more criteria associated with triggering an alarm;
- receiving, from the user device, a selection of a security sensor profile of the plurality of security sensor profiles;
- and
- causing configuration of the security sensor based on the selected security sensor profile.
A method comprising:
- determining, by one or more computing devices, an addition of a security sensor;
- causing output of a list of a plurality of security sensor profiles, wherein the list is associated with a premises and comprises one or more security sensor profiles that comprise one or more criteria associated with triggering an alarm;
- and
- causing, based on a selection from the list, configuration of the security sensor.
An apparatus comprising:
- one or more processors;
- and
- memory storing instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the apparatus to:
- determine an addition of a security sensor;
- cause a user device to output a list of a plurality of security sensor profiles, wherein each of the plurality of security sensor profiles comprises one or more criteria associated with triggering an alarm;
- receive, from the user device, a selection of a security sensor profile of the plurality of security sensor profiles;
- and
- cause configuration of the security sensor based on the selected security sensor profile.
An apparatus comprising:
- one or more processors;
- and
- memory storing instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the apparatus to:
- determine an addition of a security sensor;
- determine, based on the security sensor, a security sensor profile that comprises one or more criteria associated with triggering an alarm;
- cause output of a list of a plurality of security sensor profiles, wherein the list is associated with a premises and comprises the determined security sensor profile;
- and
- cause, based on one or more selections from the list, configuration of one or more security sensors associated with the premises.
