Experience the ultimate in home automation control with Nullrivers Haiku for HAI automation controllers. Haiku combines HAIs proven home automation controllers with iOSs unbeatable user interface experience and versatility. This leverage brings the consumer a solid, user-friendly and convenient home automation interface that is as usable from anywhere in the world as it is from the comfort of your couch.

Haiku takes advantage of iOSs excellent touch interface and makes home automation easy and fun. Anything from changing the thermostat setting to controlling lights or the security system is only a few taps away. The interface is customizable using a "Favorites" tab, where any controller object can be added for quick access.

The "Status" tab gives you a quick overview of the systems status including the security status for each area, the thermostat statuses, auxiliary sensor statuses, as well as any unacknowledged messages or insecure zones. You can tap any object in any section to quickly interact with it using an instant pop-over.

The "Security" tab, conveniently organized by area allows you to view all zone statuses, bypass zones or arm/disarm the system (or set the mode for Lumina systems). The "Security" icon at the bottom of the screen displays a count of any insecure or bypassed zones.

The "Climate" tab provides a list of all configured thermostats and any auxiliary sensors, displaying their status, temperature and humidity levels. Tapping any thermostat allows you to have full control over its functionality including temperature and humidity setpoints, mode, fan and hold.

The "Control" tab allows you to control all of the configured lighting units in your home. Organizable by "Rooms", "All Units" or only "Lit Units", it is easy to locate and control a specific unit. Each room can be controlled as a group: Letting you turn its units on or off, set a scene or tap an individual unit to control it independently. Units can also be dimmed to any level or left on for a specified amount of time using a timer setting. The "Control" icon at the bottom of the screen displays a count of lit units, helping you save energy.

The "Audio" tab (displayed only on panels with an audio interface connected) allows control of all defined audio zones and sources.

The "Buttons" tab allows you to execute any macro button defined on your controller with ease.

The "Messages" tab provides a list of all system messages and allows you to display or acknowledge any message. The "Messages" icon at the bottom of the screen displays a count of unacknowledged messages to get your attention.

The "Settings" tab lets you have full control over the User Settings defined on your HAI controller. Set custom temperature, humidity, date, time, number, duration, level and days of week values with ease using the familiar iPad interface controls.

The "Cameras" tab allows viewing of an unlimited number of MJPEG cameras and has PTZ support for Panasonic, Foscam, Axis, Trendnet, Sony and Toshiba cameras.

The "Events" tab provides a list of all recent and older system events.

Haiku includes a "Keypad Mode" which is used for permanent installations of Haiku (in-wall mounts, etc.). This adds entry/exit and local alarm/disarm screen handling.
