WL3 for Windows Home Server
Add Monitoring and Control of Your Home to a Windows Home Server
The Windows® Home Server is a central server that stores, organizes, protects, and allows you to share all of your digital photos, music, video, and documents, while running quietly in the background. WL3 is an Add-in for this server that allows you to monitor and control your HAI home control system from any device with a web browser, such as an iPhone 2.0, iPod Touch, BlackBerry, Smartphone, computer, PDA, etc.
Simply pull up WL3 on a browser and you have instant access to your HAI home control system. From there you can:
* Conveniently control individual lights, turn off all lights in the home or room, dim lights or adjust preset lighting scenes
* View surveillance cameras - see your front door, pool, boat dock, etc.
* Conserve energy by adjusting heating and cooling and view humidity and outdoor temperatures
* Arm or disarm the alarm, view a security log to monitor activity of housekeepers, nannies, etc.
* Control your Multi-Room Audio system. Select music source and adjust volume levels in individual rooms or the whole house
* View recorded surveillance video
When the WL3 for Windows® Home Server Add-in is installed, it is continually monitoring your home. It can inform you of events such as the alarm system being disarmed or activated, a car entering the garage/driveway, or even if the wine cellar door or pool gate has been opened.
While monitoring your home WL3 can also perform the following functions:
* Record video from your surveillance cameras based on an event
* Send e-mails or text messages to inform you when an event has taken place
Cameras and Videos
Enjoying Snap-Link Mobile WL3 automatically configures supported UPnP IP cameras on your home network and allows you to manually configure other IP cameras on your network or cameras that reside anywhere on the Internet. It also allows you to view cameras in your home or from public IP cameras around town, such as traffic and weather cameras.
WL3 natively supports 60 IP camera models and requires either MJPEG or MPEG4 format support. Most MJPEG and MPEG4 cameras should function properly. Setup is simple. WL3 will automatically discover the supported UPnP IP cameras and automatically configure them. Other cameras can be added by simply configuring the IP Address, Username, and password.
Regardless of the brand of camera, the video feed is displayed in the WL3 format so that all camera feeds have a consistent look and feel. Easily select any camera, choose the frame rate and screen size, manually start and stop video recording, take a snapshot of the video image, and play, pause, or stop the video stream.
