13 - Using the HomeRemote Cell Link Service
The Cell Link Service is a premium service offered by HomeRemote that allows for control and
monitoring of your HomeRemote system from your cellular phone. The configurations from
your HomeRemote Gateway are transferred to the web and sent to your cell phone via an
installable application on your cell phone. This section will go over the setup of the Cell Link
Service as well as instructions on how to use the program on your cell phone.
13.1 - Subscription Requirements
Cell Link requires that you subscribe to a prepaid service that provides cellular connectivity to
your home automation system and delivers live video to your cell phone. The subscription
service will be billed to you when you register your Cell Link software to as many cellular
phones as you wish without incurring additional Cell Link subscription costs. Your purchase of
the HomeRemote Gateway will give you a free trial of the Cell Link Service for a predefined
amount of time.
13.2 - Setting up Cell Link (First Time Use)
At the end of the Setup Wizard, the Cell Link setup page will guide you to a web site to setup
your Cell Link service (www.cell-link.homeremote.net)
Enter your Email Address (Username) and the Password that
you defined when completing the Setup Wizard to log in to the
site.
You will be directed to a New User page that will help you
select which cell phone you current have.
First you will need to select your current cellular carrier. If
you’re carrier is not listed in the list, select “My Carrier is not
Listed.”
After you have selected the carrier you will need to select the manufacturer of your phone. You
can check this by looking at the brand name on your cellular phone. If your cell phone’s
manufacturer is not listed select ‘My manufacturer is not listed.”
Next you will select the model number of your cellular phone. If you do not know the model
number you can check by removing the battery from your phone and looking at the
manufacturer’s label behind the battery. There will be a section that states the model number of
your phone. If you do not know or cannot find the model number select “My model is not
listed,”
