Vendors such as premises vendors, communication service vendors, and Internet portal vendors need a solution for extending their relationship with vendees beyond the immediate transaction. Additionally, vendees desire additional premises management services beyond the immediate transaction for premises, communication services, or Internet portals. There is a need for advanced premises management services.

Property developers/managers and service providers are facing ever increasing competition and lack the expertise, time and resources to offer control and telemetry services to their customers. Connecting people to devices is the next evolutionary step for the Internet.
Some of the architectural/design goals for the system are low cost, ease of use, and scalability.
The architecture and products/service offering is flexible enough to cater to the needs of the homeowner while being scalable and intuitive enough to allow for easy installation and minimal support.
Three types of customers are envisioned for the system. Although the ultimate end user is the property owner, customers can be: home developers and commercial property, e.g. multiple tenant unit (MTU) owners and managers; service providers (telcos, cable companies, ISPs, etc.); and homeowners or commercial building tenants.
The actual user of the services resides in the premises where, for example, the gateway and devices are installed. The system can be intuitive enough that the “average” end user can perform the installation and configuration steps.
The installer can be the person or entity that installs the gateway and the devices in the home, configures the gateway, connects the gateway to the Internet and/or telephone line and/or performs any troubleshooting necessary. Depending on the actual customer, the installer can be 1) the installation crew of the service provider or property developer, 2) an outsourced installation outfit hired by the service provider or property developer, 3) an outsourced installation outfit hired by the end user, or 4) the end user.
The premises gateway can be a low-cost and stand-alone unit that connects the in-premises devices to the server. The connectivity to the Internet can be accomplished via a broadband connection (T1, DSL or cable) and/or via the telephone line. Though broadband connectivity is preferred due to its persistence and throughput, telephone connectivity is recommended to be present as a back-up option in case the broadband connection is lost. For premises without a broadband connection (e.g., vacation homes) a telephone-only connection can be used.
The service portal provides an intuitive end user interface to the premises network as well as access to system and network configuration screens and user account information and settings.
Some embodiments of the overall system can be put in use through the following steps:
1. Customer need for telemetry services is established
2. Customer (via web or phone) orders a system
3. Customer acquires system (via service provider, builder, etc.)
4. A service account is established (by the service provider/builder or by the homeowner or system manager)
5. Gateway is registered (by the service provider/builder or by the homeowner)
6. Gateway sends network/device information to the server
7. Homeowner configures own home (alarms, notifications, binding, etc.)
8. Future devices are added to system either via pre-configuration by system manager or via the end user through configuration screens on portal
Each of these steps is described below:
Customer Need is Established
This can done through the property developer, the service provider sales channel or direct advertising by the system manager.
Customer Orders a System from System Manager
The customer specifies what kinds of devices are needed and where each one will reside in the premises (e.g., living room thermostat, lobby motion sensor, etc.). The user account is then appended by system manager to include this information as well as the actual unique ID for each device shipped to the customer.
Customer Acquires System
The gateway and devices can be acquired by the customer in several ways:
1. Pre-installed by the property builder/developer/manager or service provider
2. Directly purchased by the end user
The choice of devices can depend on the particular services and functionality desired by the customer.
Once the customer acquires the gateway and devices, the devices are physically installed in the premises. This task can be performed with the help of an installer, or for smaller premises, performed by the end user.
A Service Account is Established
This is generally done by the end user as the process uses personal information (name, payment option, etc.). The account registration involves the user logging on to the system manager web site and establishing a new account by entering name, address, phone number, payment details and/or the gateway serial number printed on the gateway in the end user's possession.
In some cases the system manager service account may already be pre-established with the gateway serial number and the end user simply has to update the account with personal and payment information. This scenario eliminates the need for the end user to deal with any cumbersome serial numbers or keys and is really more of a personalization step.
Multiple gateways can also be handled per user account.
Gateway is Registered
This step involves the association of the user account on the system manager server (established in the previous step) with an actual gateway in the user's home. The gateway is connected to a broadband network or the telephone line in the home.
For this step, the installer, for example, presses a SYNCH button on the gateway, and initiates an uplink communication from the gateway to the system manager server using a default (first-time) IP address or, in the case of a dial-up-only connection, a toll free number dial by the gateway.
Upon establishing a connection with the server and locating its corresponding user account (e.g., established in a prior step), the gateway acquires a system manager server IP address (to be used from that point on for all gateway to server communication), and changes its state from unregistered to registered.
In the case where the gateway is pre-installed by the developer or service provider, this step may have already been performed.
The gateway may not be able to perform any functions until it has gone through this registration process (as indicated by the state of the gateway).
Gateway Sends Network/Device Information to the Server
This is done on a regular basis and can always be initiated by the gateway. The server dictates the interval for uplink communication initiation between the gateway and server.
Homeowner Configures Home (Alarms, Notifications, Binding, Etc.)
This is the normal use of the system manager portal whereby the user selects the various monitoring, logging and notification options.
Future Devices are Added to System
The end user obtains additional devices from the system manager, in which case they are added to the end user system by the system manager before being shipped to the customer.
Alternatively, the end user could purchase a device from a third party source in which case they could use the system manager portal interface to add (or replace) the device manually.
In addition, the system manager gateway can have a provision for “discovering” devices by listening for RF messages (e.g., GE Interlogix) or service pin messages (e.g., LonWorks devices).
Overview
Parts of the system as a whole are described, including the gateway, the server and the web portal interface.
System Overview
At the highest level, the system provides its users with a hosted and managed service for premises device monitoring and control for a fee, such as a monthly subscription fee. The premises markets include residential homes, commercial MTUs as well as small businesses.
The traditional complexity and expense of installing and maintaining such a system is delegated to the system manager platform. As a revenue-grade Application Service Provider (ASP) business, the system provides reliability, scalability, security, cost-effectiveness, ease-of-use, and flexibility.
The term “system” can denote the portal, server, gateway and end devices.
Reliability
The system can provide a high degree of reliability. This includes 24-7 operation of the Network Operations Center (NOC) and the server software it contains, and the reliability and fault-tolerance of the gateway and the control devices.
Scalability
The system, specifically the NOC, can scale to accommodate large numbers (in one embodiment, millions) of gateways and devices (in one embodiment, tens of millions). Though this may not be used at the onset, necessary architectural provisions can be built into the system to allow for such expandability.
Security
As a revenue-grade service offering, the system provides security against intentional and unintentional interference with the normal operation of the system. The system can be reasonably immune to external unauthorized access (either over the Internet or device network media). The system can provide reasonable protection against spoofing (of NOC server, gateway or device).
Cost-Effectiveness
Similar systems in the past have suffered from a high cost of in-premises devices and gateway as well as high and/or unpredictable installation costs. The system installation process is simple in order to minimize, if not eliminate, the installation costs.
Ease-of-Use
The gateway and device installation process as well as the various user configuration and normal use menus/screens presented by the portal are, according to an embodiment, intuitive and easy to use. This eases the adoption and continued use of the system by its users.
Flexibility
The system is flexible enough to easily handle different device networking protocols/technologies should the need arise in the future. In addition, the system, including the web interface, can be adapted to different markets and applications.
Variable Logging
The system can log any device variable specified by the user for up to, for example, 30 days. The user defines a logging interval for each variable at the time of configuration. The logging feature can be handled by the gateway on the local device side and the data can be transferred to the server at regular intervals. The overall variable log for all variables can be kept on the server side.
Logging of data for more than, for example, 30 days (but no more than, for example, 180 days) can be provided to the user, for example for a nominal fee.
The system can allow for the logging of at least, for example, 10 variables per gateway. The minimum logging interval for any variable can be, for example, 5 minutes. Logging intervals provided can be, for example, 5, 15, 30, 60, 180 minutes as well as 6, 12, 24 hours and weekly.
Activity Logging and Tracking
The system must be able to provide at least, for example, a 14-day history log of all user, system and device actions. An action includes a change to a device variable, system or network settings brought on by either the system or the user (e.g., variable changed, logging enabled, device added, user notified, etc.). The user can trace back system activities to their cause and to the date and time they occurred. Past activities can be searched by variable, device, category or date.
System Modes
The system can support user-defined modes, such as “home”, “away”, “sleep”, “vacation”, etc. The mode the user network is in plays a factor in the determination of the actions taken (reporting, alarming, eventing, notification, etc.) by the system when variable changes occur.
System mode can be changed by the user via methods such as:
1. Via the portal interface
2. Through a schedule set by the user
3. Via a binding (a variable change tied to the mode change—e.g., RF remote control)
The system can provide a set of default modes based on the user profile (homeowner, business, vacation home, etc.). These default modes are a starting point that can be changed or added to by the user at any time.
Alarming
The user can specify alarm conditions for variables with discrete states (e.g., binary ON/OFF). These alarms can be reported in real-time (i.e., immediate uplink) by the gateway to the server. The server then in turn looks at the data and determines, based on user alarm settings, whether to notify the user or not.
Alarm conditions can be determined based on the value or state of a variable as well as the system mode.
Eventing
For non-critical events, the system can notify the user in non-real-time fashion regarding the state of any variable specified by the user. The variables chosen for user eventing can be of any kind (discrete or continuous). The gateway updates the server with the change of variable state/value at a regularly scheduled upload. The server continuously looks at variable data and determines, based on user eventing settings, whether to notify the user or not.
Eventing conditions can be determined based on the value or state of a variable as well as the system mode.
User Notification
The system can support user alarming and eventing via the following methods: email, text messaging, pager, and/or voice telephone call (voice synthesis).
Device Data Monitoring and Control
The user can specify any device variable for monitoring and control via the server portal. For example, up to 255 devices can be supported by a single gateway. For example, up to 512 variables can be supported by a single gateway.
The user can schedule specific variable updates (e.g., turn off thermostat at 8 am every Tuesday). Scheduled events can be canceled (gateway-server protocol can support this). A scheduled variable update is allowed, per time stamp and variable ID. If time stamp and variable ID match an existing scheduled variable change, then the value for that pending variable change is re-written with the new value. A given variable can have multiple scheduled values as long as each scheduled update has a different time stamp.
Any pending downlink variable change commands can be canceled that have not been relayed to the gateway at any time through the portal interface.
Device Network Support
The system can support an open architecture where most, if not all device networking protocols can be supported. Examples of specific device protocols supported by the system include RF and powerline protocols, such as GE Interlogix RF and Echelon LonWorks power line (PL & FT), simplifying the installation burden by requiring no new wires to be installed in a premises.
The LonWorks free topology twisted pair medium (FT-10) can be supported as an option to better support commercial applications (e.g., office buildings).
All devices, regardless of the technology, can possess these attributes:
1. Unique ID (global)
2. Non-volatility. Must not lose any pertinent data or state.
3. Low-battery indication over the network (if battery-operated)
4. Tamper detection (if security-sensitive)
RF
This system includes a low-level, simple unidirectional protocol for multiple sensors to talk to a receiver head end. The protocol needs and footprint are relatively small and as such the RF devices are comparatively low-cost and small. They also can function for several years without the need for a battery change for simplified installation and maintenance of the system by the user.
A bi-directional RF transceiver can be supported by the system. This allows for control as well as monitoring of remote devices (e.g., thermostat) by the user.
The following RF devices can be supported by the system:
1. Door and windows sensor
2. Motion sensor
3. Smoke alarm
4. Water sensor
5. Freeze sensor
6. Contact closure sensor (e.g., ITI DWS with external connector pins)
7. CO alarm
8. Heat sensor
9. Thermostat
10. RF remote control
PL
The power line solution offers a robust and reliable mechanism for communicating over existing residential power line wiring.
The following PL devices can be supported by the system:
1. Thermostat (e.g., RCS)
2. Load controller (e.g., Halen Smart)
3. Relay actuator (e.g., Comap)
4. Photo camera, e.g., black & white, low-resolution (with motion sensor)
FT
The Free Topology solution offers a cost-effective medium for commercial applications. Many third party LonWorks devices use this medium for communications.
Other Devices
The following is a non-exhaustive list of a few other devices supported by the system.
1. Small data/message display—for text messages, news, weather, stock, photos, etc.
2. Door latch control
3. Pool/spa controller
4. Weather station
5. Lighting control
6. Elderly or disabled monitoring
7. Irrigation controller (Bibija)
8. VCR programming
Cameras
The system can support cameras. For example, standard off-the-shelf IP cameras (also referred to as web cameras) may be used, such as those available from vendors such as Axis, Panasonic, Veo, D-Link, and Linksys, or other cameras manufactured for remote surveillance and monitoring.
Surveillance cameras may contain a standalone web server and a unique IP address may be assigned to the camera. The user of such a camera would typically retrieve the camera image by accessing the camera's web page through a standard web browser, using the camera's IP address. In some cases the IP camera acquires a local IP address by using a DHCP client to negotiate an address from the local DHCP server (usually residing in the user's router/firewall).
According to an embodiment, the gateway treats camera images as it does other sensor or device data. User commands to “snap” a picture are sent from the system's portal/server to the local premises gateway during scheduled communications between the gateway and server (initiated by the gateway). Alternatively, a picture “snap” command for a local or remote camera can be initiated by a sensor (e.g., motion detector, remote control, etc.) on the local device network. The gateway then in turn talks to the camera over the IP network (wired or wireless) to retrieve the image and pass that image up to the system's backend server, effectively acting as a pass-through agent for the camera.
Since the data from the gateway (including the camera image) is pushed up from the gateway to the server using standard HTTP protocol (used by web browsers), additional configuration of the user network may be avoided. Also, adjusting of the user's firewall (port forwarding, DMZ, etc.) may be avoided (i.e., simpler installation and enhanced security).
Also, the push mechanism eliminates all the issues related to accessing the camera from the Internet, namely firewall and dynamic IP issues mentioned above, since the user gets the images from the system servers and not from the premises directly.
The system's user portal interface acts as a unified user interface for the user by displaying multiple images from different cameras in the same user interface page (e.g., web page).
The system's IP cameras can be physically located anywhere as long as they are connected to the Internet (if remote) or to the local IP network (if local).
Due to the fact that the images are served from the system's server (as opposed to the local camera or network) potential security exposure of accessing the home network directly from the outside may be avoided. Also, additional security measures can be put in place (e.g., SSL) to block an unauthorized user from accessing the images on the server.
Device Low-Battery Notification
The system can notify the user via the web portal of any low-battery conditions for the devices that operate on battery (e.g., GE Interlogix devices).
Server-Side Binding
The system can send variable control information downlink based on variable information collected through the uplink connection. This rule-based exchange can take place within the same atomic uplink-downlink (request-response) exchange between the gateway and server. The user specifies the actual “rules” for such bindings (e.g., turn off the thermostat when there is no motion in the premises for 2 hours).
This implementation may impact scalability because of the atomic communication factor.
Local Binding
Local binding can permit a more real-time interaction between devices. This functionality can take place without the server's involvement (other than the initial configuration of the local rules). The local binding, given the different technologies used at the device level, needs to be routed through the gateway.
Gateway Shoulder Tap
The server can “call” a gateway if the user requests that a variable change be propagated to a device in real-time (rather than waiting for the next gateway uplink connection).
Device Sharing Between Different Users
The system can provide a means for a single device to be managed by multiple users. For example, a security gate or a pool temperature sensor in a property common area should be accessible by all residents in the complex.
Gateway
The gateway is the central link between the premises device network and the backend server. It can be a thin, low-cost client of the server and use the least amount of hardware and software without compromising the basic functionality and objectives of the overall system.
Internet Connectivity
The gateway can provide both a connection to a broadband network (Ethernet DSL or cable modem) and telephone network. The telephone network connection provides a second, redundant route for accessing the server in case the broadband network access is down and there is a need for the gateway to report critical alarm information uplink to the server. The telephone connection also provides a means for the system to support premises that have no broadband connection available (e.g., as in many second or vacation homes).
The gateway can terminate any data call in process if a user picks up a telephone and provide a dial tone immediately. In addition, the gateway may not initiate a data call if the phone is in use by the user (off hook).
They gateway can dial out in the absence of external power to the gateway.
Communication with Server
The gateway can initiate all communications with the server. Gateway communication can either initiate based on a predetermined schedule (e.g., every 30 minutes) or due to a local premises alarm (selected by the user).
Gateways can contact a common server for their first uplink connection in order to obtain their assigned gateway server address, which they can use for all subsequent uplink connections (unless changed later by the system). In the event that the gateway cannot connect to its designated gateway server, it can fall back to contacting the default initial gateway in order to refresh its gateway server address.
The predetermined call initiation schedule can be programmable by the server and can provide different intervals for broadband and telephone intervals (e.g., every 30 minutes for broadband and every 90 minutes for telephone).
By assigning the gateway-server communication initiation to the gateway the system can enjoy the following benefits:
1. Most if not all issues generally attributed to routers, firewalls and NAT are eliminated, as the gateway is now simply an HTTP client (much like a web browser).
2. Security against outside hackers is greatly increased as access into the gateway can be disallowed. The gateway knows whom it can talk to (server) and it does so when it needs to.
A possible disadvantage of a push-only scheme can be an inability of the server to provide “real-time” device control. This can be a relatively minor disadvantage minimized through the shoulder-tap mechanism.
Gateway Shoulder Tap
The gateway can have the provision of initiating an uplink communication based on a telephone ring signal detected on the phone line. This shoulder tap from the server allows the server to pass down a variable change to the gateway without having to wait for the next gateway uplink connection.
A drawback of a telephone line shoulder tap is the occasional ringing on the telephone line. It is difficult to detect an incoming ring reliably without the phone actually ringing. This is fairly benign when considering:
1. Most user variable change requests (control) may not have to be done in real-time and can occur at the next scheduled gateway uplink synch.
2. Most often the premises (e.g., home) being controlled in real-time is unoccupied.
3. The shoulder tap can at most ring the phone only once so the user can wait for the second ring before picking up the phone
4. The user can opt to provide a second phone line dedicated to the gateway.
Implementing shoulder tap over IP is another embodiment with a more complicated installation process (e.g., router/firewall configuration, opening ports, etc.). Keeping an IP connection alive between the gateway and server can be unreliable and could heavily burden the server.
Configuration
The gateway can be installed without any special skills. The NOC server can handle the complexity of configuration.
Once plugged into a power outlet as well as a broadband and/or telephone network, the gateway can:
1. Determine if there is a broadband connection available
2. If so, obtain an address from the local DHCP server
3. Make sure the telephone connection is operational
4. Contact the server for the first time and check to see if there is a user account associated with it (this can be a secured inquiry to eliminate hacking)
5. If there is no associated user account found, notify the user (e.g., blinking LED on front panel)
Device Discovery
The gateway can be put into a device discovery mode via, for example, a front panel push button. Devices can normally be introduced to the system and assigned to the user:
1. By system manager before shipping out to the user
2. By the user/installer via the portal device registration screens
The discovery mode is a third way of registering devices. The discovery mode allows the gateway to listen for and discover new devices added to the network—should there ever be a need for such functionality. Upon discovery of a new device the information is passed to the server for further processing and registration. The user can then finalize the device registration process through the system's portal (e.g., assigning names, alarming, etc.).
If the user can specify the adding of a device, it can be configured by the user immediately on the portal. Auto-configuration comes with set defaults. Another similar device to copy can be specified.
Auto Recovery
The gateway can be self-sustaining and autonomous.
In the event of communication failure between the gateway and the server for an extended period of time the gateway can continue to do its tasks (e.g., variable monitoring, logging, etc.).
In the event of an extended power loss or a system reset, the gateway can resume normal operation after the appropriate “boot-up” period (i.e., no more than 2-3 minutes). A hardware buffer can receive, e.g., RF signals during bootup.
Any pending scheduled events that did not occur because of the power loss can be performed once the gateway has resumed normal operation and can occur in the original order defined by the user.
In the event that the gateway software “hangs,” the gateway can recover itself through a built-in watchdog-monitoring feature.
Rule-Based “Binding”
Gateway Power Interruption
The gateway can operate for at least, e.g., 5 minutes after a power failure in order to report its latest status (including the power status) to the server (either via broadband or telephone). The gateway may not use a rechargeable battery in order to eliminate the need for gateway servicing when the battery reaches the need of its life (e.g., typically 2-3 years).
The gateway can withstand power interruptions without losing any pertinent data (e.g., device data, log data, date & time).
For applications where the gateway and devices are to operate in the absence of power, the user can obtain and use an uninterruptible power supply (UPS).
Remote Firmware Upgrade
The gateway can receive firmware upgrades over its WAN connection (Internet or PSTN). The gateway can have provision for recovery in case there is an interruption during a firmware download (e.g., network connection loss).
The gateway firmware upgrade is an automated process initiated by the gateway based on a schedule downloaded from the server during a gateway-server exchange. The upgrade process may not involve any user interaction or involvement and may take place when the user is least likely to be using the system (e.g., at night).
Variable Logging
The gateway can provide enough storage for logging one day worth of data for, e.g., 10 variables logged every, e.g., 15 minutes. In the event that the local gateway log is filled up before the gateway has had a chance to upload the data to the gateway, the gateway can stop logging additional data and report a “log full” error to the server at the next uplink connection.
Security
Appropriate security measures can be provided by the gateway to ensure protection against:
1. Inadvertent communication with neighboring networks and devices not related to a gateway/user.
2. Intentional external hacking into the system from the WAN side (Internet and PSTN).
3. Intentional external hacking in to the device network side (PL or RF).
Power Consumption
The gateway can use minimal operating power in order to reduce the cost associated with the power supply as well as the circuitry to keep the gateway alive immediately after a power failure.
Form Factor
The gateway can be encased in a visually attractive enclosure that is generic enough for multiple markets including consumer applications and commercial building applications (schools, etc.).
Ease of Use
The gateway can use the simplest possible installation procedure. The gateway can “figure out” how to communicate with the NOC (broadband and/or PSTN) once the power has been connected to it. No user involvement may be necessary for this to take place.
User Interface
The gateway's user interfaces include the following LEDs and switches:
POWER LED
COMM LED: communication happening between gateway and server
DEVICE LED: Device communication (PL or RF) happening. This LED can also be used for the device discovery feature.
ERROR LED: Displays different errors using different blink rates (log error, synch error, comm. error)
SYNCH switch: Initiates a gateway-server uplink communication
Gateway Local Reset
The gateway can provide a way for it to be reset locally by the user. Upon the execution of this gateway reset function, the gateway can be in the factory default state with no device, variable, user or configuration variables residing in it.
The reset operation for the gateway can be performed by, e.g., holding down the SYNCH switch for 20 seconds.
Agency Certifications
The gateway can be designed to comply with both FCC Part 15 (Level B) and Part 68 certifications.
If an external Tamura power supply is not used, then gateway design can meet the standards for the appropriate regional safety agency certification (i.e., UL, CSA, CE, and TUV).
Error Reporting
The system can report error to the user and/or administrator when the following conditions occur:
1. Downlink variable update failed
2. Gateway synch delayed or missed
3. Missing variable poll value
4. Variable log full
5. Broadband or phone line connection down
Server
The server provides a hosted, reliable and secure “server-in-the-sky” for the premises gateways to communicate to and for the users (customers) to access for accessing and controlling the various devices in one or more premises.
Reliability
The NOC facility can be run by a managed hosting service and as such provisions for power failure and security (theft) can be in place via the vendor providing the hosting service. However, the NOC server software architecture can support certain backup features.
All user, system, network, gateway and device data contained by the NOC server can be backed up on a regular schedule (e.g., once a day).
When NOC server hardware malfunctions, that hardware can be quickly and easily replaced with minimum user downtime.
Security
The server can communicate to the gateway in a secure fashion.
The data can be encrypted when transferring between the gateway and server, as well as ID/password for authentication.
Scalability
The server software can be scalable such that it can support a large number of gateways over time. The scalability sold also enables the server to have a small foot print at the beginning when the number of gateways may be relatively small.
Platform
The interfaces between the servers and modules can be in XML in order to provide maximum flexibility and scalability. No requirements may be imposed for the operating system or programming language platforms used.
Server API
The server can provide an API (via XML and SOAP) that permits third party applications to get full access to the functionality of the server.
Portal
The portal can support web, WAP and PDA access points. An important attribute of the portal is ease-of-use.
Customization
The portal can present an automatically-customized UI to the user based on the application (e.g., residential, commercial, etc.) and the devices used (e.g., security, energy, safety, etc.).
As a secondary feature the portal can also allow the user to easily customize their portal for their particular needs.
Lastly, system manager personnel or authorized agents can further customize a portal for a specific customer (e.g., a telecom) or class of customers (e.g., homeowners of a home builder). This process can put a specific “skin” on a customer portal.
User Account Screens
These screens allow the end user to open an account and register the end user's gateway(s). Screens can be included for obtaining billing/payment info and other user information (e.g., address, primary contact information, phone number, etc.).
In addition, this can be where the user enters their gateway ID(s) (on the gateways) so the system can make an association between the logical user account and the physical user network(s)/gateway(s).
User notification options (email, phone, page, text messaging, etc.), as well as time zone, uplink interval can also be selected here.
The option to customize the WAP portal interface can be provided so the user can select the variables and the functionalities that are presented on a WAP device accessing the service.
Device Registration Screen
The user can register devices obtained from other sources—assuming they were not pre-registered already by the system manager. The user can enter the unique device ID and the device name, etc.
The ability to delete a device from the local user network can be provided. History related to the device being deleted (log data, action tracking, etc.) can be removed from the system, e.g., 30 days after the device deletion.
The gateway can know if something succeeds or not and report it back to the server. Similarly, each “command” the server performs on the gateway can be tracked back when the results of what the gateway did with it come back (e.g., success, fail, etc.).
The gateway can report the downlink changes like it reports uplink changes. The state change of the variable in question (e.g., Change thermostat setpoint) can appear in the log like any other variable, along with its time stamp.
The portal can set the change, then after the change occurs it can verify it is reported in the log. For example, if the portal is asked to turn the light on, it can be ensured that it happened “once and only once” and if it failed, that can be known.
The ability to replace a device in the local user network can also be provided. Old log data for the replaced device can be kept without a break in the device's data (i.e., the log can start getting values from the new device. Also, since the downlink values are set on the new device, those initial settings can also appear in the log.
Network Configuration Screens
This is where the user configures the device network and sets preferences and options (e.g., which variables to monitor, logging options, etc.).
Provisions for creating variable groupings are also provided here (i.e., defining a single variable that represents the collection of all similar type variables selected by the user—either ANY or ALL function (OR or AND)—e.g., all door/windows sensor states).
The user selection of which variables are monitored for eventing and alarming is performed here as well.
Normal Usage Screens
These represent the main screens used most often by the user on a day-to-day basis. Typical functionality provided includes: network summary, variable monitoring, variable control, variable logging, system activity log, system status, alarms, etc.
WAP Interface
The portal can also provide a simplified interface for supporting WAP devices. The functionality can be a limited subset of monitoring and control services offered by the web portal.
The customization of the WAP portal interface can be done through the normal Web interface screens
PDA Interface
The portal can also provide a simplified interface for supporting browsers running on PDAs. The functionality can be a limited subset of monitoring and control services offered by the web portal.
The customization of the PDA portal interface can be done through the normal Web interface screens (see above).
Permission Levels
The portal, in association with the server, can provide configurable user access and permission levels for both inter-account (e.g., different premises) and intra-account (e.g., mom, dad & kid) isolation.

Control Network
An embodiment of a control network may comprise a collection of sensor and actuator devices that are networked together.
Sensor devices are devices that sense something about their surroundings and report what they sense on the network. Examples of sensor devices are door/window sensors, motion detectors, smoke detectors and remote controls.
Actuator devices are devices that receive commands over the network and then perform some physical action. Actuator devices may include light dimmers, appliance controllers, burglar alarm sirens and cameras. Some actuator devices also act as sensors, in that after they respond to a command, the result of that command is sent back over the network. For example, a light dimmer may return the value that it was set to. A camera returns an image after has been commanded to snap a picture.
The core of an embodiment of a control network is an architecture where sensor devices are coupled to actuator devices. A light switch, for example, may turn on a lamp through a light dimmer actuator. A door/window sensor or smoke detector triggers an alarm. Other devices may also be controlled in various ways.
Note that the computer in the middle of the network may be used to bridge the various networks, essentially providing interoperability, but with available existing technologies that calls for a custom solution requiring expensive custom software. Otherwise, the three control networks are independent.
Here we see the same three local networks on the premises (IP, LonWorks, GE Security). However, now they are all connected together by the system gateway. Furthermore, the system gateway is attached to the internet, through which it regularly contacts the system servers in order to send up new data and get back control and configuration information. Clients can monitor and control their premises using ordinary browsers on a wide variety of devices by accessing the system servers.
Note that, at the premises, use of a PC or custom programming to achieve interoperability between different device technologies, or to provide remote monitoring and control may be avoided. Instead, in an embodiment both functions are performed by the system gateway, which according to an embodiment is designed to interface to a variety of device technologies and provide an abstraction layer that helps the rest of the system (servers and clients) to be technology-neutral.
Sensor/Actuator Device Abstraction
Sensor and actuator devices are abstracted at the gateway hardware level so that different devices from different manufacturers can be handled seamlessly. Embodiments may support devices from several different manufacturers (for example, GE Security, Axis Communications, Axsys Systems) using three different communications technologies (unlicensed-band RF for GE devices, Internet Protocol for IP cameras, and powerline for LonWorks modules).
Gateway Device
The gateway device performs the hardware abstraction function according to an embodiment of the invention. The gateway includes the hardware and software required to communicate with all supported device technologies. Software on the gateway converts the raw data received from the device to an indexed data point. Periodically the gateway sends the data to the server, with each datum tagged with its data point index and time stamp.
In an embodiment, the server performs substantial operations for data storage and user interface.
Gateway—Server Data Interface
Between the server and the gateway, an embodiment of the system uses a device-property-value model. Each device supports some number of properties that expose its capabilities. For example, an embodiment of a door sensor has a state property (open or close) and a battery-level property (low or ok). Both the devices and their properties are given indexes when the gateway is configured, and all subsequent data exchange uses the indexes to identify the property involved. This indexed property ID may also be referred to as an “indexed data point.”
The door sensor has detected an open door, and sends the gateway a message with its hardware ID and raw value. The gateway interprets the data, converts it to an indexed data point value, and sends it to the server as device #1, property #0, set to 1 (true). Note that the device ID is converted to the configured device index (1), and the changed property is identified by its property index (0).
In the second case, the client wants to take a picture, so the server sends down the value (in this case, the desired picture name) indexed by the camera's device index (2) and the camera's picture property's index (1). In this case, the gateway initiates a web service to the camera to access (and upload) the image, then sends back the result of that operation to the server, again as an indexed data point.
According to an embodiment, the camera and a door sensor are both handled identically by the server and in the server-gateway protocol, using the device+property model.
Common Device Definition Format
In the server infrastructure, the device data is handled as indexed data point values. When the data is presented to the user, it is reinterpreted. The device definition file is the mechanism that permits the server software to handle this reinterpretation with a single, common code module, independent of device types or technologies.
Physical devices are defined using a common device definition file format which provides the information necessary to convert the device- and technology-specific view of a device to an abstracted, generalized view.
Function Types and Properties Abstraction
In order to allow client inspection and manipulation of sensor/actuator devices in a device- and technology-independent manner, device capabilities are mapped to standard function types, each of which defines one or more standard properties. This permits client software to, for example, query the system for temperature measurements, without necessarily knowing what physical device type provided it or what networking technology it used.
Raw Data Types
Each property in a device definition is tagged with its raw data type. This is the format of the raw data as received from the device and passed up by the gateway. Note that this is usually not the same format as the raw data that is passed from the device to the gateway.
For Boolean (digital) properties, this raw value is either the string “1” or the string “0.” For analog properties, the format of the value can vary widely depending on the type of device. The gateway does not have to be responsible for handling the wide variety of formats possible, since the raw format type is stored in the device type definition, and is used by the server to make the conversion when necessary.
Standard Data Types
Each property in the device definition file is further tagged with a standard data type. This is the type that is stored in the server database and, by default, reported to the client. (Note that the actual database field type is a string: the “standard type”, as used here, refers to how that string is formatted, not to the database data type).
Formatter Conversion Classes
The server has a set of formatter classes that convert between the raw and standard formats. These are selected and instantiated dynamically, as needed, based on the raw and standard data type strings from the device definition. This way the server code that manages data is identical for all data types, and supporting a new data type includes creation of a new formatter conversion class. Similarly, there are a set of formatter classes that convert between different standard formats.
Data Conversion Data Flow
Associative Binding
Binding is the process of “connecting” the output of one device (a sensor) to another device (actuator). An example is a switch that triggers a light to go on.
Gateway Binding
First, whether the devices in question use the same technology or not, associative binding uses the gateway itself as the “connection” mechanism. The gateway receives the signals from the sensor, interprets them, and relays the appropriate message to the actuator.
Gateway binding can be implemented without associative binding. That may, however, involve the gateway containing code to do the data conversion from the source device's data format to the destination device's data format. For example, if a switch is bound to a lamp controller, switching the switch to on causes the lamp to turn on.
Associative Binding
The gateway implements a form of associative binding, where a binding (connection) is triggered by the value of a source device property. Bindings are kept in a table that maps source device properties+values to destination device properties+values. For example, consider a remote control that sends out a numeric value (for example, 1 to 10). Binding entries can map the individual values to different target devices, so that each value can turn on a different lamp. Furthermore, the binding entries contain the specific values that need to be sent to the target device property.
Each associative binding defined on the gateway may include:
Index of the source device property
Index of the target device property
Source property value
Destination property value
When a sensor's bound data point reports a change, the gateway checks whether there are any bindings that match that data value. If there are, it sends the appropriate destination data to the destination device property, hence to the destination device hardware.
1. User presses on-1 button, remote sends “prop 2=1”
2. Gateway finds “prop2=1” in table, sends “prop 0=8fff” to Device 2 prop 0
3. User presses on-2 button, remote sends “prop 2=2”
4. Gateway finds “prop2=2” in table, sends “prop 0=8fff” to Device 3 prop 0
5. User presses off-1 button, remote sends “prop 1=1”
6. Gateway finds “prop1=1” in table, sends “prop 0=0000” to Device 2 prop 0
Gateway Data Abstraction
The source and destination data are specified in the table as untyped strings, so the gateway can do a string comparison, which may not involve knowledge of the data semantics. The gateway passes the destination string back to the destination device, again without necessarily using semantic knowledge.
User Data Abstraction
In an embodiment of the system, the user knows the semantics of the data, but may not know the raw data formats. So the user knows that “when I press the lamp on button on my remote, I want the lamp to go to full brightness.” Because the data from both the sensor and the actuator involved in a binding is normalized to standard data units, the user can specify their desired bindings using those standard data formats, and the system receives these selections. (In the above case, Remote “lamp” button=“On” causes the Lamp to be set to “100%”).
Server Data Abstraction
As in cases where the server handles sensor/actuator data, it does so in the case of bindings using the format conversion classes, driven by the device definition files. The server does not necessarily use semantic knowledge of the values being bound.
Gateway Device Abstraction
For a given user premises, in addition to the sensor and actuator data, there is system-level data that is managed. Some examples are error logs, usage logs, gateway error alerts, tracking changes to the system, etc. The gateway may be treated as a pseudo device.
In this design, system data are reported as properties belonging to the gateway pseudo device. Because the system properties are exposed this way, they can be transparently handled by the server infrastructure (logging, reporting, etc.) rather than requiring a separate logging/reporting mechanism. This enhances the resiliency of the server design, since new system properties can be added without changing the server code (simply adding the new system variables to the gateway device model suffices).
Camera Snapshot: Abstracting Images Through Properties
The data from cameras (i.e., “camera” function types) is a relatively large binary file. An embodiment of this does not fit the simple property-value model, and in an embodiment the image is not represented by a string. An embodiment handles the cameras and camera properties like other devices where it is appropriate, yet still offers the camera features (still images and video) to the user. An embodiment does that by creating special properties for the camera.
Cameras contain a property named “snapshot” that is linked to the camera's images. This property performs: 1) writing to this property causes the camera to take a snapshot and upload it to the server, and 2) the property is logged when the property changes. The value of the property is the name of the snapshot image. That is used by the server to fetch an image given a name.
Taking a Snapshot
Clients write a string value to the snapshot property that gets sent down to the gateway. That causes the camera code in the gateway to get the snapshot from the camera and upload it to the server. Finally, it reports (to the server) that the property was successfully updated. While the gateway does require special code to handle the camera interface, the device property data is handled exactly like any other device property.
Logging Images
By using a regular property to represent an image snapshot, the times, names, etc. of the snapshots can be logged using the ordinary property logging mechanisms used for other properties. The client software uses this history log to display thumbnails of the saved images. As in the case of the server, the client software does not need special code to get the list of images (although it does use special code to display the thumbnails and images according to an embodiment).
Binding Snapshots
Because a snapshot is triggered by a property assignment, that assignment can also occur due to a binding. Thus combining this snapshot property functionality with the associative binding capability leads to a way to take snapshots based on reported sensor data.
1. User presses “take picture” button on remote, remote sends “Device 1 Prop 0=1”
2. Gateway finds the binding in the table (Dev 4 Prop 0=Snap_#)
3. The # at the end tells the camera code to append a random number
4. Gateway camera code gets the data update, initiates an HTTP GET to the camera
5. Gateway camera code sends the image to the server
6. Gateway reports updated data like any other data update.
Camera Integration
Embodiments of the server and gateway incorporate a number of features that simplify the installation and use of still and video cameras.
Camera Type Abstraction
As is the case for attached devices, cameras are abstracted on the gateway so that neither the client nor the server infrastructure necessarily has specific knowledge of the camera type, thus they may handle all cameras identically according to an embodiment. (Note: the client application—in our case the portal—may use some specific camera knowledge in order to present the video and stills transparently to the user).
Integrated Stills and Video
The camera stills and video are integrated into the user interface so that the user never sees any camera-specific web pages.
Firewall-Proof Still Images
According to an embodiment, the images from the IP-attached cameras supported are not viewed from beyond the user's own local network unless the user's router opens a port and forwards the camera requests to the camera. However, since the gateway is behind the same firewall as the camera, it gets the image from the camera and transfers it to the server via HTTP port 80 (which is always open). The images thus become available to the user on the Internet (protected by username/password).
Integrated Video Dynamic DNS Replacement
Viewing video from the camera involves the client changing router settings to forward TCP requests to their camera. Then, the portal allows the client to access the video without the client necessarily knowing the Internet address of the client's system. The gateway is in regular communication with the server, and upon update the server saves the gateway's current WAN address. When the client wants to see video from the client's camera, the server inserts the gateway's WAN address into the video image link (href). If the user's IP address changes frequently, the user can access their camera's video from anywhere.
Installation
Network cameras on the market come with a variety of installation methods. An embodiment of the gateway eliminates the need for client involvement by automatically configuring the camera hardware.
During the camera configuration, the gateway creates private administrator password, then a view-only user with a random password that is subsequently used to get camera images (still or video). The gateway searches for the camera on the local network to obtain its IP address (as assigned by the user's router). Since the gateway itself is automatically configured via DHCP, it knows the subnet and approximate address range that the router is using for the DHCP-assigned addresses.
Configuration
According to an embodiment, the camera configuration capability is exposed via camera configuration properties. Should the user want to change the camera's address or client user name/password, the user can do so in one place, on the system portal. The changes are passed down to the gateway (as camera configuration property updates) where it causes the gateway to reconfigure the camera hardware. Differences between different camera types are handled by the gateway software. These properties are handled and logged as other properties.
Router Port Forwarding Assistance
Setting a router's port forwarding table to support remote video viewing may involve:
1. Determine that port forwarding is called for
2. Find the router's configuration web page
3. Figure out what to enter as the server address
4. Figure out what to enter as the server port
5. Know what to put where
6. Know if it is working correctly
An embodiment of the system addresses these items. Note that the user is logged on from the user's own network (the “Local Client” example in
Determining Port Forwarding is Desired
When the user accesses a camera from the system portal, the system server performs a test to check whether the camera is accessible from the Internet. If it is, the camera page includes a link to a page that will display the video. If the camera is not accessible, the video link instead opens a camera assistance page that guides the user through steps to configure their router's port forwarding.
Finding the Router's Web Page
Since the gateway is on the same internal network as the camera, it knows what the router's address is (it is the default gateway passed back in the DHCP assignment). The portal generates a link on the camera assistance page that takes the user right to the user's router's configuration web page.
Address, Port and where to Put them
Since the camera's address and port are available via properties, the portal reads these properties and includes these properties in descriptive text on the camera assistance page. That page also contains a link to a router help page, where the user can select the user's router and get specific help on what to do to configure it.
Device Test
The camera assistance page has a button to test whether the port forwarding is a success or not. It uses the server's test-camera-access API to make the determination, and displays either a pass or fail message to let the user know.

When the word “or” is used in reference to a list of two or more items, that word covers all of the following interpretations of the word: any of the items in the list, all of the items in the list and any combination of the items in the list.
The above description of illustrated embodiments of the system is not intended to be exhaustive or to limit the system to the precise form disclosed. While specific embodiments of, and examples for, the system are described herein for illustrative purposes, various equivalent modifications are possible within the scope of the system, as those skilled in the relevant art will recognize. The teachings of the system provided herein can be applied to other processing systems and methods, not only for the systems and methods described above.
The elements and acts of the various embodiments described above can be combined to provide further embodiments. These and other changes can be made to the system in light of the above detailed description.
In general, in the following claims, the terms used should not be construed to limit the system to the specific embodiments disclosed in the specification and the claims, but should be construed to include all processing systems that operate under the claims. Accordingly, the system is not limited by the disclosure, but instead the scope of the system is to be determined entirely by the claims.
While certain aspects of the system are presented below in certain claim forms, the inventors contemplate the various aspects of the system in any number of claim forms. For example, while only one aspect of the system is recited as embodied in machine-readable medium, other aspects may likewise be embodied in machine-readable medium. Accordingly, the inventors reserve the right to add additional claims after filing the application to pursue such additional claim forms for other aspects of the system.
