10 HouseControl User’s Manual version 4.8
1.2.8 Asking for Information
You can find out the current operating mode (is monitoring on or off?), battery voltage, temperatures,
GSM signal strength, and active alarms by sending command #? to your HouseControl.
If monitoring is OFF (disable mode) and there are people at home, it is most likely that some alarm
channels will be listed in the “Alarms” field in the return message.
1.2.9 Remote Control
You can control room temperatures, close water mains valve and turn off air-conditioning (home/away
information), shut down electricity, silence the local alarm siren, switch on yard lights, or open your
garage door just by sending a text message to your HouseControl’s GSM number
If you have a security keypad installed at your home (M- and L-model HouseControls), output O4 or O6
is dedicated to controlling the red signal light on the security keypad. That signal light tells you the
current operating mode of your HouseControl.
There are eight outputs in the L-model HouseControl. Four (O1-O4) of which are power relays.
Table 2. The table summarizes the outputs in the L-model HouseControl.
