Abstract

An integrated security system is described comprising a gateway located at a first location. The gateway includes a takeover component that establishes a coupling with a first controller of a security system installed at the first location. The security system includes security system components coupled to the first controller. The takeover component automatically extracts security data of the security system from the first controller. The gateway automatically transfers the security data extracted from the controller to a second controller. The second controller is coupled to the security system components and replaces the first controller.

Claims (14)

1. A system comprising:

a gateway located at a location and coupled to at least one remote server via at least one communication channel; and

a communication component of the gateway configured to communicate with a controller of a security system installed at the location, wherein the security system is coupled to the at least one remote server via the at least one communication channel, wherein the security system includes security system components coupled to the controller;

wherein the communication component receives security data of the security system from the controller, wherein the gateway is configured to use the security data to emulate the controller, and communicate the security data to the at least one remote server via the at least one communication channel.

2. The system of claim 1 , wherein the gateway is configured to communicate with at least one device network at the location, wherein the at least one device network comprises a plurality of network devices.

3. The system of claim 2 , wherein the gateway is configured to separately control communications with each of the security system and the at least one device network.

4. The system of claim 2 , wherein the gateway is configured to selectively control data exchanges between the security system components and the plurality of network devices, and data exchanges among the plurality of network devices.

5. The system of claim 2 , wherein the gateway is configured to control at least one of the security system components and the plurality of network devices in response to at least one of the security data and device data of the plurality of network devices.

6. The system of claim 5 , wherein the device data comprises command data and data generated by the plurality of network devices.

7. The system of claim 5 , wherein the gateway is configured to synchronize communication between a remote client device and the security system and the plurality of network devices, wherein the gateway provides access to communications and functions of the security system and the plurality of network devices via remote client devices.

8. The system of claim 7 , wherein the gateway is configured to receive control data for control of the security system components and the plurality of network devices from the remote client device.

9. The system of claim 5 , comprising a touchscreen.

10. The system of claim 9 , wherein the gateway is a component of the touchscreen.

11. The system of claim 9 , comprising a plurality of user interfaces simultaneously presented at the touchscreen by at least one application, wherein the plurality of interfaces include a security interface and a network interface, wherein the security interface provides the user with control of the security system and access to the security system data, wherein the network interface provides the user with control of the at least one device network and the plurality of network devices and access to the device data.
