Question:
I am interested in purchasing the OSI Go Direct Gen 2 alarm system, which works with the Smart Life app. I have two main questions:
-
Monitoring Multiple Properties:
If I have 5 different properties, can I purchase 5 alarm systems (one for each property) and monitor all 5 properties from a single Smart Life account on my phone? -
Assigning Access to Managers:
If I have different managers for each of the 5 properties, is it possible to:- Assign access to each manager so they can only see and manage the alarm system for the property they are responsible for?
- While at the same time, allowing me (the account owner) to monitor and manage all 5 properties from my account?
This outlines the process of installing 5 devices on the Smart Life app, assigning each device to 5 separate homes, and then sharing each home with 5 separate managers.
-
Under Home Management in the Smart Life app, first create 5 separate homes.
-
Add each designated alarm system device to its respective home.
-
Have your managers download and install the Smart Life app on their phones and set up their own Smart Life accounts.
-
Select a specific home under Home Management and add the email address of the manager assigned to manage that home.
Managers can be assigned one of the following roles:
Administrator
- Has full control over the shared device.
- Can modify device settings, such as schedules, automation, and advanced configurations.
- Can share the device with other users (including Common Members).
- Can remove access for other users.
- Can delete or reset the device in the app.
Note: The person who initially adds the device to their account is automatically assigned as the Administrator.
Common Member
- Has limited control over the shared device.
- Can operate the device (e.g., arm/disarm alarms, turn devices on/off) based on permissions set by the Administrator.
- Cannot modify device settings or configurations.
- Cannot share the device with others or remove access for others.
- Cannot delete or reset the device in the app.
As the main account holder you can monitor all 5 properties from a single Smart Life account on your phone
