No-one's going to ask it questions, they'll just consult it to see what it has to say.

control system with remote programming (or monitoring) capacity/feature
It's not very clear to me with the context given, whether you can actually program the thing through remote access, or if the remote access is just to be able to check in on it and see if it's working ok (when you're on vacation?)
