Abstract
Systems and methods for activating an interface device for use at a premises are described. An interface device may be activated for a security system at the premises. The interface device may communicate with a remote server to request activation. The remote server may also be in communication with a user device. A correspondence of a first address of the interface device and a second address of the user device may be used to authorize the interface device for activation. The interface device may receive an activation message and begin communicating with and controlling a security system and other devices at the premises.
