• Home security systems have recently been revolutionized with the advent of interactive services. In times past, home security systems were made to perform one simple task and that was to alert police and the homeowner of a possible intrusion. But within the past two years we have seen major manufacturers turn simple home security systems into interactive lifestyle control centers. These days even a basic alarm system consists of an integrated talking keypad with touch screen display and all the hardware you need to protect most small homes. This basic system can be installed for as little as $199 from most home security installation companies with the signing of a monitoring agreement.

    This is possible today because of the manufacturers ability to integrate all the advanced features into one self contained system. Just a couple of years ago this was only possible by individually purchasing all of the components separately. The touchscreen voice keypad would cost approximately $300. The Cellular communicator was another $200. Then add on to that a siren, wireless receiver, off premise access module and be prepared to pay an extra $400 for those.And lastly to make a traditional system comparable with the new Honeywell Total Connect system, you must add a two way voice module which is an additional $200 value. Now with the Honeywell self contained Lynx system, you can get all these in one easy to install system plan.


    Color Voice Touch Screen Display
    All arming keypads are not created equal. The most basic arming keypad which has been around for several years is known as the LCD Display arming keypad. This keypad comes with a basic display which reads out a numerical display to identify the system zones. This was and still is a very effective way to to show system information however it is not the most practical because it requires to homeowner to have a separate written record of the system zones. With the all new Honeywell Lynx Total Connect touchscreen voice keypad the system touchpad now becomes an interactive control center. An impressive color LCD 7 inch display shows all system operations and commands. A voice prompt accompanies all arming and system commands to make the system even more user friendly. Graphic images describe all system zones by identifying them with the proper area names so there is no need to keep a record of the system zones. And on chime mode the system verbally annunciates the name of the area whenever a zone is violated. Also incorporated into the self contained Lynx Total Connect arming station is a 110 decibel siren. This loud siren is also integrated and requires no additional wiring or modules. All in all the Honeywell Lynx Total connect arming center is a self contained control panel with all components integrated.


    Two Way Voice Monitoring
    Two way voice integration is what makes the Total Connect integrated system the most powerful system available on the market today. Two way voice communication means having the ability to listen into the protected premises upon an alarm activation. This is a very helpful way to avoid false alarms. Just imagine that the monitoring station will now have the ability to know anytime there is a real intrusion in progress at your home. Now with the Total Connect interactive system they are able to do just that and advise the local authorities of an actual home invasion or burglary. The local police agencies handle these dispatches very differently from the average burglar alarm dispatch because it is considered a verified alarm. The dispatch priority on these systems go up to the same level as a hold up or similar event. This means much better protection for you and absolute peace of mind knowing you have total control of what goes on in your home when your’e not there.


    Off Premise Access
    One of the most popular and innovative features of the Honeywell Total Connect system is the ability to arm, disarm and receive email notifications of all alarm events on any smart phone. This is extremely helpful for parents that have kids that are home alone during the day. A schedule can be created to notify you whenever your child comes home after school and can be modified to alert you if he or she doesn’t come home and disarm the system. This is a great way of keeping tabs on the coming and going of your children without actually being there. Also imagine having the ability to arm or disarm the Lynx Total Connect system from anywhere in the world. For those that have housekeepers coming over when they aren’t home this feature allows them to control the arming and disarming of the system without actually being there.
