Honeywell Launches RIM Blackberry® App for Total Connect™ 2.0 Remote Services
Enables Live, Look-in Video Viewing and Easy Fingertip Control of Honeywell Security Systems
MELVILLE, N.Y., December 19, 2011– Honeywell (NYSE: HON) has launched a new
application for RIM BlackBerry® devices, letting users control their security
systems and view live, streaming video from any remote location. This version is
the latest application of Honeywell’s popular Total Connect™ Remote Services,
which allows consumers to utilize the Internet, smartphones, cameras and other
compatible wireless devices to stay connected to their homes and businesses
wherever they are.
The new icon-based user interface allows users to control security system
keypad functions and video viewing on BlackBerry devices with the press of a
finger. They can view live video, record and store video clips, take snapshots
or have video clips or pictures e-mailed to them upon an important event, such
as a delivery taking place or a child arriving home from school. The app
replicates a physical keypad, letting users arm, disarm and silence their
systems, bypass doors and control lights and garage doors. End-users can also
receive alerts if motion is detected in designated indoor or outdoor areas in
and around their home or business, if valuable objects have been moved or if
extreme temperature changes have been detected when combined with Honeywell’s
motion detectors, anti-theft and environmental sensors.
Total Connect™ 2.0 subscribers can download the app for free in the
BlackBerryWorld store. For more information about Total Connect Remote Services,
