Abstract
An apparatus is provided for controlling access to a premises based system through a user interface device. Criteria are used for establishing a set of system functions that are accessible through the user interface device; and this set of system function is provided by determining an access characteristic associated with the user interface device, comparing the access characteristic to the criteria, and determine the set of system functions to provide the user interface based at least in part on the comparison. The criteria may be defined by an access profile containing a predetermined set of system functions. The access characteristic may include physical location of the user interface device, connection type, device type, and a device identifier. The set of functions may be automatically provided to the user interface device upon with a prompt to arm/disarm the system, and/or control other devices, such as through geo-fencing.
