How I know personalizing your ADT Pulse Web Portal is easier than baking a cake...

Yesterday afternoon, I finished up a series of blogs that I've been really wanting to make available on the website.

How to Set up ADT Pulse Automations with Your ADT Web Portal

Posted by Taniqua Pino on Mon,Nov 16,2015 @ 11:34 PM

So you've decided that ADT Pulse is the way to go. Great decision by the way. You can now customize your sytem by setting up automations. To clarify, an automation is an event that happen because something else happened first. The first event or action triggers another event. For example, an every day thermostat "automation" would be for the heater to click on when the temperature drops below 68 degrees. A more life saving automation might be to have the fan to the home turn off if a smoke detector detects a fire. That way the fire is not being fed and growing faster because the air conditioner is flinging air into it's mouth. Here is how you set up automation with your ADT Pulse system.

What Does the ADT Portal do for You?

So you've just installed your ADT Pulse System or you are about to make the investment and you want to know exactly what the ADT Pulse portal will do for you. Well get prepared for massive awesomeness!

What has got to be the best part of your personalized web portal is how it guides you through the process and continues to make suggestions on how to get the most out of your system. Not like a set up wizard that does a basic set up for you (although it does do that too!) but suggestions on the side bar to make your system do the hard lifting for you. Say you log in to inspect your videos religiously. It might propose the ides of having text and email notifications automatically sent to you for all surveillance events. It will logically also present you with a link in case you need info on how to do that.

What Does Home Security Equipment do For You?

Posted by Taniqua Pino on Fri,Nov 06,2015 @ 09:39 AM

 There are many blogs out there to explain the technical aspect of each piece of home security equipment. If you click that link, you can even find one of mine that lists each piece of equipment and exactly what duty it performs within the security system. Now don't get me wrong, it is important to know what things are made for. How else would we tell our kids not to use things for uses they 'were not' made for? But what you really want to know is, "What will it do for me?" So here is that question answered. Beyond telling you that a door sensor protects your door, here is why that matters to you and your loved ones.
