Abstract

An integrated security system is described comprising a gateway located at a first location. The gateway includes a takeover component that establishes a coupling with a first controller of a security system installed at the first location. The security system includes security system components coupled to the first controller. The takeover component automatically extracts security data of the security system from the first controller. The gateway automatically transfers the security data extracted from the controller to a second controller. The second controller is coupled to the security system components and replaces the first controller.

Claims

1. A system comprising:

a gateway located at a first location; and

a takeover component coupled to the gateway, the takeover component establishing a wireless coupling with a first controller of a security system installed at the first location, the security system including security system components coupled to the first controller;

the takeover component automatically extracting security data of the security system from the first controller;

the takeover component automatically transferring the security data extracted from the first controller to a second controller, wherein the second controller is coupled to the security system components and replaces the first controller.
