Honeywell Releases Wireless Security System
LYNXR-I aims to addresses the growth of alternate communication technologies.
January 24, 2007 | by Rachel Cericola

It’s nice to see some of the big boys acknowledge that not everyone has access inside their walls. Today, Honeywell announced LYNXR-I Self-Contained Wireless Control, the latest addition to the LYNX quick-install family. Designed with future expandability in mind, the LYNXR-I should prepare your dealer with the goods to address the emergence of VoIP, migration to cell phones and the growth of digital radio networks. 

That’s right: Despite it being a wireless product, you’ll have to call in a pro to get one.

LYNXR-I supports the Honeywell family of communicators, including the 7845i and 7845GSM.  It also supports alarm reporting and downloading using IP and long-range radio. The LYNXR-I also works with ordinary telephone lines.

With features including compatibility with all 5800 Series devices and built-in two-way voice, which lets your central station company contact you in case of an emergency. Other key features include voice, a built-in message center, reminders, “Follow Me” and scheduling.

honeywell is a manufacturer…home security providers in your area will carry the product and competitive product..those door to door individuals do not work for honeywell, but for companies that use the product and will throw the name around for credibility

Can you please send me a number to contact this company.  I had a representative come by where I was renting a few months ago offering the new security system, but I did not qualify because I was not the homeowner.  I am in the final stage of buying a home and would like to aquire this service.  I live in Warner Robins GA.

Kathy: I sent your question along to Jason Knott, editor of our sister publication, CE Pro. Here’s what he said:

“I cannot speak specifically about Honeywell, but it is not uncommon for a security company to go door to door. Many times, they are working on a home in the area and want to “canvas” the neighborhood since their technicians are already in the area. “

Hope that helps!

I have a question does Honeywell Home Security send out representatives in the Elwood, IL location? Like door to door, we recently built a home and two men have showed up at our house at two different occasions asking if we have a security system, they claim they were from Honeywell Home Security, I just felt it strange that they came to our door only.  I would appreciate a reply asap.
thank you
Kathy
