Keep your eye on things at home – Using URCs handheld remotes or brilliant in-wall touchscreens, you can securely lock and unlock the doors or adjust lighting while at home. Or, using your iPad or iPhone, you can check on things and adjust them from afar. Its the ideal solution for true access control. Just imagine the peace of mind you’ll experience knowing when the kids arrive home after school or receiving a text when the pet sitter has entered while you’re on vacation.

Secure access from your computer from anywhere – This secure system also provides advanced features via an annual service that allows access of the TRF-ZW1 online from any location to enable password-protected setup and control of your Z-Wave devices. You can receive email and SMS text notifications when doors are opened, see history, status of connected Z-Wave products and more. No matter where you are, you can monitor and allow access to your home, or turn on a light you forgot when leaving. With Total Control and the Z-Wave Extender, you have the ultimate in secure control and convenience.
