snipdoo HOME is the mobile extension of your door communication. Use your smartphone like your TCS indoor station at home – no matter where you are. On the couch or on the go – you will not miss a call anymore. Wherever you are, you can see the visitors outside your door, talk to them and open the door – or keep it locked. Even if you do not have the time to answer a door call personally, the door call log with picture and time recording keeps you well informed about missed calls. In addition to that you can add several IP cameras in the app. This enables you to have a look at all areas of your property at any time. Feel free to enjoy a feeling of security and smart comfort at the same time. You can treat yourself to even more freedom if you use access rights for your home. You can invite a trusted person with a QR code and an unique ID. Your guest or co-resident only needs to scan the QR code with our app snipdoo HOME or enter the unique ID and he or she can enter your home independently and also answer to door calls for you. These access rights are always subject to you as the owner and main user of the system, so you can withdraw an invitation at any time. The QR code including ID can only be used once, which means that once the data has been validated it is worthless. For the use of snipdoo HOME it is mandatory to have installed a TCS IP system or TCS:BUS system including TCS IP Gateway. Functions: • Receiving door calls via the TCS cloud service (costs from 2,90€) • Display of the camera image of the video front-door station • Video stream from several IP cameras • Opening the door after answering the call Compatible TCS Devices: - ASI91000 - ISW5410 - IVW5411 - FEZ1000 - Serie AVD IP - Serie IP-Gateway - FBI6119/21/22 (nach Update auf Version 0.7.6) - FBI6123/24 - Serie ARGOS • List of all calls (incl. image, name of location and time, 48 h storage per call)
