Accessing Elk via my phone

Guys, I have the ISY and mobilinc which allows me to access my ISY over my dynamic DNS domain. When I added the weather module I could then see weather info in mobilinc.

 

I have recently installed an ELK M1 Gold security system and I know I can access the Elk software with a different dynamic NDS domain but I really don't want to pay for 2 different secure domains for the two different IP addresses.

 

Since the Elk module allows us to access the Elk M1 Gold via the ISY, is there a way I can use the ISY secure IP dynamic DNS domain to arm, disarm, etc. my Elk security system instead of paying for a 2nd one? :?:

 

Thanks! :mrgreen:

You can also put programs in ISY that do just about anything to your Elk. I don't know what mobilinc has access to, but if you can run a program from it then you essentially have full access to all Elk functions.

Hi jmed999,

 

I do not know about 3rd party applications. But, you can certainly do simple arm/disarm from our regular ISY interface (http://your.isy.ip.address) which we call UDAjax.

 

With kind regards,

Michel

 

This works and I have the bookmark saved on the home screen of my droid. The only problem is it goes straight to the website without asking me for a password. I feel like this is a security issue. If my phone gets stolen they could get in my house. How do I require a password on that site?

 

Thanks!

If you just have your phone protected with a password lock just to access the phone, it should be fine as well. I have a Business IP PBX phone with a password protected home screen and it is very safe. If someone finds your phone and it is password protected you will be safe from someone accessing any of your data.

I don't want a password on my phone...it's a hassle. I shouldn't need one to access a webpage.
