Claims20
A method for provisioning an appliance device comprising:
- receiving a service address from a user associated with the appliance device, the appliance device comprising a phone,
- validating the received service address;
- storing the validated service address;
- receiving a panic signal based upon the user dialing 911 on the phone;
- providing the validated service address to an emergency telephone number service provider for provisioning;
- and
- transmitting the validated service address to a PSAP associated with the validated service address, in response to the provisioning being successful.
A system for intelligent control of an appliance device, the system comprising:
- a processor;
- and
- a memory coupled to the processor, the memory storing instructions executable by the processor to perform a method comprising:
- receiving a service address from a user associated with the appliance device, the appliance device comprising a phone;
- validating the received service address;
- storing the validated service address;
- receiving a panic signal based upon the user dialing 911 on the phone;
- providing the validated service address to an emergency telephone number service provider for provisioning;
- and
- transmitting the validated service address to a PSAP associated with the validated service address, in response to the provisioning being successful.
A method for provisioning an appliance device comprising:
- receiving a service address from a user associated with an appliance device;
- validating the received service address;
- storing the validated service address;
- receiving a panic signal from the user using the appliance device after the validated service address is stored;
- providing the validated service address to an emergency telephone number service provider for provisioning;
- and
- transmitting the validated service address to a national PSAP, in response to the provisioning being unsuccessful.
