Home Center – an advanced home management system
25 March 2020
Home Center, the brain of any Fibaro smart home, is an advanced whole home management system that uses a Web-based graphical interface for simple programming. Control of your home is achieved through a wide range of native apps, voice control by Amazon Alexa or Google Assistant, for truly smart home automation.
The controller manages all Fibaro Z-wave[1] devices, as well as most third-party Z-wave products, with a wide library of built-in drivers for multimedia, which include smart TVs, IP cameras, thermostats, security alarm systems, and media players. Home Center 2 also has its own alarm panel, which allows you to arm/disarm sensors individually, and even remotely. For larger homes or for multiple homes in different locations, Home Center 2 allows you to network several Home Centers into one system.
The user-friendly interface is extremely easy to set up, navigate and manage on a smartphone or tablet. Additionally, the visual scene builder on the Web interface is intuitive, allowing even inexperienced users to build quick simple scenes. For more advanced scenes, installers can use LUA scripting to automate everything into one system.
