IR Connect (formally known as Sky Command) is Inner Range’s cloud-based solution designed to provide centralized security management across multiple sites. With Siri integration, users can now perform essential functions through simple voice commands, such as arming and disarming doors, to managing the outputs of specific areas. For example, an operator can use voice commands like “Hey Siri, arm the main gate,” or “Hey Siri, turn off the Board Room lights.”
This guide will walk you through the set-up of Siri Voice Commands for IR Connect (Sky Command).
Firstly, navigate to either Area or Door control, the process is the same for both.
In the Control menu, select the Door or Area that you want to set up Siri Voice Commands for, this will open a drop-down menu where you then tap the Shortcuts button.
