Takeover with Home Automation: The BAT-Connect allows professional installers the ability to upgrade the services they offer to include home automation.

There are other communicators that provide a Z-Wave radio as an option, but Alula has arguably the most elegant integration of these technologies in the industry.

First communicator tied to a user experience that delivers a user-specific dashboard with tightly integrated video, home automation and security services on a single page.

This can provide a unified user experience both in and outside the home/business.

First communicator that enables dealers to replace old, clunky keypads with new high-tech 7-inch touchpads, enabling dealers to upgrade not only the remote user experience, but also the local interface.

First communicator leveraging CAT-M1 technology – the IoT band for LTE and 5G networks.

First communicator with triple-path cloud connectivity (Ethernet, Wi-Fi and cellular on every unit).“There are several items that I consider to be industry first on the BAT-Connect,” says Alula VP product management Dave Mayne: The product will ship “shortly thereafter.” “All devices are 100% remotely managed.”įor example, Wi-Fi credentials can be remotely managed and changed over the cellular network, he explains, “so if a consumer replaces their router, the dealer can re-connect the BAT-Connect to the Wi-Fi network without rolling a truck.”īAT-Connect will be demonstrated for the first time at ISC West next week in Las Vegas. “In addition, Alula is focused on eliminating truck rolls for our dealers,” Mayne says. The goal is for dealers to have a single SKU on the truck for whatever they encounter in the field. Updates planned for 2019 include added support for Interlogix NX, Interlogix Concord, Simon and Napco Gemini panels.Įventually BAT-Connect will replace Alula’s other universal alarm communicators, including the BAT-LTE (cellular and IP) and BAT WIFI models.

There might be one icon for security, one for home automation and one for video.” “Others don’t really bridge services like that. “That unification and merging in a single dashboard is unique to Alula,” he says.

Like other external communicators, the BAT-Connect sits on an alarm panel’s keypad bus, but unlike other communicators it “allows full access to a mobile suite and the full Connect+ back end with security, home automation and video,” says Alula CEO Brian McLaughlin in an interview with CE Pro.Īlula VP product management Dave Mayne explains that all security functions and Alula services including video surveillance are exposed in a single, unified user interface. Integrated Security, Surveillance, Automation UI The BAT-Connect creates a dedicated local network to communicate with local IP devices like Alula’s 7-inch touchpad.
