RE: Smoke alarms

["John Nye" <john@xxxxxxxxxx>]

I'm just in the process of putting together a Visonic Powermax+ system
including these smoke alarms (or at least the BT badged version that were
available in PC world recently for less than =A320). I have also bought an
RFXCom receiver and I use Homeseer (will need a plugin - cannot remember
which one off hand but I've got the details somewhere).

If you don't want to go the whole hog I'm fairly certain that Daves
suggestion would work.=20

The Visonic Powemax MCT-425 smoke alarms report status, I haven't tried
but I think they'll work with the RFXCom USB receiver.

Are there any single unit smoke alarms that can be linked to a home
automation program?

i.e. Homeseer?

I intend to install a couple of smoke alarms in hard to get areas -
Node 0, loft and kitchen.

I want to be able to monitor them from my server and perhaps an email
or notification given to me if there is a malfunction or the unit has
run out of batteries? Or to reset the unit should the alarm go off?

Is there anything like this? I don't need a whole house systems with
status board etc etc.

Thanks,

Ho yin
