Remote alarm hushing

摘要

Methods and devices may be used to remotely hushing alarms by receiving an indication of an alarm event occurring at a remote device and presenting a visual indicator of the alarm event including a hush option to alter an audible and/or visual alarm notification of the remote device. A user selection of the hush option is received. In response to receiving the user selection of the hush option, communicating, from the electronic device to the remote device via a point-to-point low power wireless connection between the electronic device and the remote device, a hush request requests that the remote device alter its audible and/or visual alarm notification and causes an adjustment of the visual indicator to reflect a status of the hush request.

1. A non-transitory, tangible, and computer-readable medium storing instructions that, when executed by one or more processors of an electronic device, are configured to cause the electronic device to:
receive an indication of an alarm event occurring at a remote device; determine whether the electronic device is within a proximity threshold of the remote device; present a visual indicator of the alarm event, wherein the visual indicator comprises a hush option to alter an audible and/or visual alarm notification of the remote device when it is determined that the electronic device is within the proximity threshold of the remote device; suppress the hush option from the visual indicator of the alarm event when it is determined that the electronic device is not within the proximity threshold of the remote device; when the hush option is not suppressed, receive a user selection of the hush option; and in response to the received user selection of the hush option:
communicate, from the electronic device to the remote device via a point-to-point wireless connection between the electronic device and the remote device, a hush request requesting that the remote device alter its audible and/or visual alarm notification; andadjust the visual indicator to reflect a status of the hush request.
