| You can use an IP camera with the SmartLinc or with an iPhone application or with the web application of your choice. Insteon signals travel via 900 MHz RF and embedded power line signals, so they shouldn't interfere with or impact an IP camera in any way. |

Thanks for the reply. I know I can see a IP camera through SMARTLINC, but I can hear the audio?
I want to install an IP camera and intercom at the entrance of my house and I want that SMARLINC, it notice that someone used the intercom and I speak to my visitor through the IP camera, because the camara has a microphone and a speaker. What do you think? |

The SmartLinc does not have voice capability. Also, if the camera has two way audio, what is the purpose of the intercom? And what will the SmartLinc do?
BTW, I do use an intercom and camera. I also have a SmartLinc, but don't need it for the visual and aural communication. |

thanks for your assistance.
I want that when a person touches the button of the intercom, I can answer from my computer or iphone, and also see through the camera to the person. That is the reason to use the speaker of the camera.
What do you think friends ?
Regards...

| The SmartLinc offers a static picture from a webcam but doesn't stream--you'll need to use a separate application for that, probably something specific to the make of camera and phone you are using. |

We use a DoorBell Fon. It's a doorbell button that's also an intercom. Any wired phone is both the doorbell chime and the intercom. You do not need, but can have, wired phone service. Only one phone needs wired to the device. If you have a wired service and more than one wired phone, you'll need to connect the device at the entry point. Add a multi-line cordless phone and you have an intercom anywhere you want.
Connect a Doorchime Interface to an I/O Linc to trigger any Insteon device.
Any IP camera is accessible from any computer. Most are also iPhone compatible.
I use wired cameras and a SVAT DVR for internet and mobile phone viewing.
When someone rings our doorbell, we can see them, talk to them, buzz them in (or not), and -- from bed, if that be the time -- a small monitor awakens. I may not  or be  |
