The HKC app for its intruder alarm system is simple to use and makes your life easier. Importantly you can set and unset your alarm on your smart phone when it is convenient for you. This function is one of the key benefits of the burglar alarm app which is available to install from the app stores on all smart devices.
Benefits of setting and unsetting the intruder alarm remotely
If you return from a shopping trip you can unset your alarm before you enter your house. This means when you arrive home with your bags of food you don’t have to put them down in a hurry to unset the alarm.
Or if you leave the house and realise you have not yet set the alarm you can do so without re-entering the house. When you leave your property it also saves you the anxiety of the alarm of not being set. You can also separate your property into zones and part-set your alarm for that area if you need to.
To set the alarm within the HKC app press full or part set then put in your regular user code that you normally tap into your intruder alarm control panel. At this point the app will connect, which will take a few seconds and then the system will arm. To unset all you need to do is press unset and it will do this in seconds.
The many functions of the HKC App
The HKC app also has a log record which will display the last 100 alarm activations and actions of setting and unsetting the alarm. Alarm activations appear in red within the log. If you select the share log option you can share log events via email or SMS.
A further range of functions will improve your security. These include receiving notifications of:
- activated alarms
- changes to the alarm settings;
- a technical fault with the alarm system
If the alarm is attached to a camera you will also receive a photo, which you can share with others.
For integrated systems you can turn on and off heating, lighting, a garage door or an electric gate on the outputs screen of the app. There are also controls to set when lights etc come on and go off.
