SECURITY SYSTEM CONTROLLER

摘要

A security system (10) having a control unit (20) in communication with at least one sensor unit (30). The system (10) is controllable by a remote control unit (60) in response to a user depressing predefined buttons on the remote control unit. The system in one embodiment is also capable of controlling infrared (IR) controllable devices from the remote control unit. The control unit (20) may be programmed with sensor location dependent information using a programming device which encodes the information as programming data specifying the location of the sensor unit to which the encoded information is being directed. This location dependent information is transmitted to the control unit (20) from the sensor unit by way of a communication link.
