Abstract
Methods, systems, and devices for a security and automation system are described. A security and automation device, for example, such as a control panel may be configured to support a continuous active mode for the security and automation system. The continuous active mode may be a mode in which the security and automation system is continuously providing various types of security and automation features, such as monitoring, sensing, communication, notification, among other examples. The continuous active mode may also support active switching between multiple states (e.g., an ‘armed away’ state, an ‘armed stay’ state, and a ‘standby’ state) of the security and automation systems. Thus, irrespective of the different states the security and automation system may be continuously active (e.g., always ON).
