Bedford, NH – HomeSeer Technologies announces the release of its new v2.4 web-enabled home automation software. The new software features direct support for Schlage’s new LiNK® line of Z-Wave enabled lever and deadbolt locksets. With direct support, locks may be monitored and controller remotely through HomeSeer without the need for the Schlage LiNK bridge gateway. Since HomeSeer supports the widest range of home automation technologies available, this allows the locks to be integrated into a much wider range of systems, including those not centered on Z-Wave.
Other new features include auto-detection of new Z-Wave hardware, support for the new Aeon Labs Z-Stick controller, native support for Z-Wave thermostats and support for Windows 7. For a complete list of other changes, please visit homeseer.com.
V2.4 is being released stand alone in the company’s HS2 and HSPRO software products and will also be embedded into the HomeTroller and PRO-100 hardware controllers. Existing users will be able to upgrade to v2.4 at no charge!
“We’re thrilled that HomeSeer Technologies’ new v2.4 home automation software will support Schlage® wireless locks and deadbolts, enabling more consumers in more markets to enjoy the benefits of Schlage LiNK™ technology,” said Dwight Gibson, Vice President and General Manager, Connected Home Solutions for Ingersoll Rand, the parent company of Schlage. “Research shows that homeowners love the idea of being able to monitor and control access to their homes from a cell phone or computer. And working parents, in particular, really appreciate the peace of mind that comes with being notified by text or email that the kids have arrived home safely from school.”
All HomeSeer automation systems are designed to work seamlessly with industry standards and products from leading manufactures such as Cooper®, Lutron®, Intermatic®, Leviton®, Russound®, Monster Cable®, Microsoft®, Centralite®, DSC®, Aprilaire®, ACT, RCS, Schalge® and others.
