    1. HOME AUTOMATION
    Enter your home and have the temperature set perfectly for your arrival? Have the lights go up as the sun goes down? Unlock a door via your smartphone? DSI can help bring your home and vacation homes or cottages to life with a customized solution that can work with your lifestyle and budget and grow with your changing needs.

    2. THERMOSTATS
    Z-Wave® enabled thermostats can automatically adjust every time you arm or disarm your security system. You can design customized scenes and schedules for comfort and energy savings, or control your thermostats via your smartphone. Temperature control provides better comfort and fewer temperature swings. You can also create lockouts to keep temperature limited to a minimum or maximum setting—ideal in homes where children may attempt to adjust the thermostat.

    3. LIGHTING
    Turn select indoor and outdoor lights on or off automatically every time you arm or disarm your security system. Tell your system to turn one set of lights on 30 minutes before you get home from work and turn another off an hour after you’ve gone to bed. You can program scenes and schedules for ambience, security, and control your lights from any remote location.

    4. LOCKS
    Did your kids forget their keys again? Have a house cleaner and want to know when they come and go? Unlock the door from the comfort of your office—right from your smartphone or PC. You can also have the doors lock and unlock automatically whenever you arm or disarm your security system, set scenes and schedules for added safety and convenience.

    5. SCENES AND SCHEDULES
    Creating scenes and schedules can enhance your lifestyle and help you save money and energy without any change in your daily routine. A "Night" scene could entail having the doors lock and the lights shut off when you arm your security system. A schedule might be created to have the porch and hallway lights on and the thermostat set to a specific temperature an hour before you leave the office so you arrive to a comfortable, well-lit home.

    6. CAMERAS
    You can view cameras around your home on touchscreens, televisions, tablets, smartphones or PCs. Keep an eye on your kids and pets, screen visitors at your doors and view activity occurring around your home whenever and wherever you want.

    7. SHADES
    Operate the shades in your home for privacy and security by raising and lowering them at specified times. Automated shades make it easier to access hard-to-reach windows. They’re also an ideal way to reduce glare and help protect furniture, floors, carpeting and artwork from the damaging effects of direct sunlight.

    8. CEILING FANS
    What could be cooler than Z-Wave® enabled control of household ceiling fans? They can be automated to turn on or off when you arm and disarm your security system, programmed for specific times, work in conjunction with lighting and more!

    9. GARAGE DOORS
    Control your Overhead Garage Doors from your Smartphone or PC! Think you forgot to put your Overhead Garage Door down when leaving your home? The automation system will automatically notify you. You can close the door remotely from any smart phone or pc enabled device. Never worry about open doors again.

    10. Home Entertainment Options
    Entertainment in your home can be a high quality, cinematic experience when you integrate your home Automation system with popular home systems. Transform your living room into a home theater with the touch of a button. Close the drapes, dim the lights, start the movie and all you have to do is sit back and relax.
