<p>Various embodiments of an automatic alarm and communications processing system/method are presented. The alarm processing system/method monitors at least one sensor unit which is designed to provide an alarm signal upon occurrence of a corresponding predefined condition. An alarm signal is received at a central unit and a predefined alarm message is retrieved from memory based thereon. A selected telecommunications medium is then designated from at least two telecommunications medium coupled to the alarm processing system, and the retrieved predefined alarm message is automatically sent over the selected telecommunications medium. Preferably, the alarm processing system is powered down until an alarm signal is received at the central unit. Upon receipt of the alarm signal, powering of the alarm processing system is triggered, and subsequent to transmission of a predefined alarm message, powering of the alarm processing system is automatically removed. A detachable external programmer couples to and powers the central unit for custom programming of response parameters.</p> |
