OVERVIEW

The Honeywell Home & Away System gives you a new level of comfort and convenience

by letting you control and monitor security, lighting, Web camera, appliances, and

thermostats from control panels within your home or by several remote methods,

including a personal computer with Internet access and the telephone. With the

Honeywell Home & Away System, you can:

Monitor home security. Home & Away System installation may include an Ademco or

First Alert security system that enables you to monitor motion, window, and door use.

Control lighting and appliances. With Home & Away System, you can schedule lights

and appliances to turn on or off at selected times and you can control them remotely

from the MyHome Portal.

Control home comfort. Home & Away System displays the temperature for each

thermostat in the house and lets you change the thermostat system, temperature, and

fan settings.

Check status and set events remotely. The Home & Away System provides

interactive telephone and Internet access that lets you check the state of lights,

appliances, Web cameras, security, thermostats and set events from outside the house.

The following four subsections briefly describe how to use each interface type. The

remaining sections of this guide are instructions for performing specific tasks using each

interface.

Using the Web Interface

With the World-Wide Web (Web) interface, you can access your Home & Away System

from any computer with Internet access: at home, at the office, and from a modem-

equipped laptop. When you acquire the System, Honeywell creates a Web page for you

and the installer assigns it an Internet address. The installer will add your MyHome

Portal Web address to the Bookmarks or Favorites list for your browser.

You can use the MyHome Portal Web interface for most Home & Away System setup

tasks. To use this interface, you should:

! Be familiar with the way graphical Web browsers work (such as Microsoft®

Internet Explorer, Netscape® Communicator)

! Have access to the Internet through an Internet Service Provider (ISP) if

logging in from a computer outside your home.

! Have Netscape Communicator 4.0 or Microsoft Internet Explorer 4.0 or higher

installed.

Home & Away System interface works similarly to other Web pages. All tasks can be

carried out using a mouse or other pointing device; to begin any task, simply click its

labeled button or control on the MyHome Portal.

Each Web page on the MyHome Portal includes task, support, and navigation controls.

Navigation controls are displayed in the lower-left corner of each page and include:

! Home – returns you to the Home page.

! Device Control – takes you to the light, appliance, and thermostat control

panels.

! House History – takes you to a log that displays the last 1000 events that

have occurred (such as thermostat or security system changes).

! System Configuration – takes you to the system default settings (such as

passwords, date and time).

Task controls are the buttons and lists you use to change Device, Lifestyle, Schedule,

and security settings. They are displayed in the main task area of each page. Examples:

! Details buttons.

! Apply buttons.

! Option buttons.

Product Release Version 3.x.x. Home Controller Gateway User Guide

another URL in the Address box and perform other Internet tasks, or you can close your

Web browser and close your Internet connection as usual.

Be sure that a full time connection to the Internet is established to log in from a computer

outside your home. If it is not, follow instructions from your ISP to establish and maintain

the connection. No connection is needed if logging in from a computer within your home.

Logging in from home: Type your Internet Protocol (IP) address in the Address or Location box at the top

of your browser and press Enter. Your Home page is displayed.

Note: The IP address is a series of four numbers separated by periods; for example,

196.168.8.7. Your installer will give you the IP address and write it into your

installation materials.

After you log in, you can save the address to your Bookmarks or Favorites file.

Logging in remotely: 1. Type myhome.honeywell.com in the Address or Location box at the top of your

browser and press Enter. The public Honeywell Home Controller Gateway page is

displayed.

2. In the Username box, type the ID supplied by your installer.

3. In the Password box, type your password supplied by your installer.

4. Click the Login button. Your MyHome Portal Home page is displayed.

Using the Telephone

The telephone interface works like banking or other transaction systems you may be

familiar with. To set the Home & Away options by telephone while away from home, dial

your home phone number. If you do not have an answering machine or answering

service, the System will answer your phone automatically after four rings (or the number

of rings you set in the Telephone Settings area of the System Configuration Page).

Otherwise, you must phone home, wait until after the second ring, hang up and redial

within 40 seconds. The Home Controller will pick up the connection and you will hear a

voice prompting you to enter your telephone access code. After logging in, follow the

voice prompts to select the option you want to use. If you set the System to zero rings,

the telephone interface will be disabled.

Setting Thermostats

You can control thermostat temperature, system mode (heating, cooling, automatic, or

off), or fan mode (continuous On or Auto), from the thermostat, the SUI, the telephone,

and the Web interface.

The thermostat and Web interfaces allow you to specifically set both a cool-mode

temperature setting and a heat-mode temperature setting. The SUI and telephone

interfaces only allow you to change one temperature setting. If the thermostat is in heat

mode, temperature changes will affect the heat-mode temperature setting. If the

thermostat is in cool mode, temperature changes will affect the cool-mode temperature

setting.

NOTE: The cool-mode temperature setting must be 3° higher than the heat-mode

temperature setting. If the heat and cool mode temperature settings are within

3° of one another, the temperature settings are automatically adjusted to

maintain the 3° difference. (See the thermostat user guide for more information.)

Using Lifestyle Modes

Lifestyle Control enables you to enter one command to the Home & Away System

Controller that causes several lighting devices to change state simultaneously. For

example, when you arrive home from work, you might want to turn on the porch and

front hall lights. The Home Lifestyle could be defined to set the lights on. Then, when

you arrive home, all you’ll have to do is activate the Home Lifestyle to set up the house

the way you like it.

Activate a Lifestyle Control manually or through Scheduled Control. Devices remain in

the state defined by the Lifestyle until one of the following actions occurs:

! A change is made at the device itself,

! Another Lifestyle is activated, or

! A Schedule is activated.

The Home & Away System Controller lets you define six Lifestyles to control lighting and

appliances. Set the name of each Lifestyle from the Change Lifestyle page and define

each any way you wish. Lifestyles can be programmed with light and appliance events,

as listed below.

Event type Can event can be

programmed in a Group?

Thermostat system settings No

Thermostat fan settings No

Thermostat temperature settings No

Security Settings No

Appliance settings Yes

After you define Lifestyles, you can activate them manually from the Home & Away

System Controller interfaces. If you would like more automatic control of devices, you

can schedule Lifestyles to automatically activate on specific days at specific times, using

the Scheduled Control page.

NOTE: The Home & Away System Controller interfaces identify a Lifestyle Last

Activated. Because Lifestyles are not continuous states, the last activated

Lifestyle may no longer be in effect. Continuing the example from above, the

Home Controller could show Home as the Last Lifestyle Activated, but the

porch and front hall lights may have been turned off at their switches.

Defining Lifestyles

You define all Lifestyles from the MyHome Portal Web interface:
