If you have a permanent internet connection, you can also use xxter when you aren't at home. With the 'connect service', a paid service from xxter, you can use the xxter app to securely control your home or office without the need for any configuration of your router. You can even watch your cameras without making them available to the Internet. You can purchase the xxter connect service subscription from the service store in the app as a monthly or yearly renewable subscription. As an alternative you can also use 'port forwarding' to make your xxter available. xxter uses the latest encryption techniques, so you can be sure that you can use xxter securely, where ever you are.

With the presence simulation of xxter you can allow recorded actions to be played back when the occupant is away, to make it seen someone is at home. The user can simply select which elements in the home should be recorded in the simulation. Then, through an option in the visualization or from the home installation (for instance (de)activating the alarm system), the playback of the recorded actions can be started or stoped. And whenever the pattern of the occupant changes, the simulation will always automatically change too.

The alert service allows you to send messages from the installation to the user. For example, send a sms/text message when there is a frost risk or a leakage, send a monthly email with the latest meter readings or send a push message when the doorbell rings. Push messages can be sent together with a snapshot of a camera, to allow the user to always see who is in front of the door. The alert service can of course also be used and set up by the end user.

• Choose your own conditions to trigger a message
• Enter your own texts for the different messages
• Send alerts by push message, sms/text message and email
• Add a snapshot of a camera to a push message
• In the app a log of all previous messages is available
