Definitions

  • the invention relates to a monitoring device for monitor rooms and / or objects and to trigger one Fault report in the event of a break-in or another Irregularity.
  • DE-GM 88 08 212 is a circuit arrangement for a malfunction detector known.
  • the Alarm line of the malfunction indicator as Mains voltage line for a fault signaling contact.
  • the Fault signaling contact is in the mains voltage supply looped.
  • a speech output device is for the known fault detector provided with that previously in a digital voice memory stored language is available in the event of a fault.
  • the usual acoustic and optical detectors at one Disturbance communicated a higher information content of the disturbance become.
  • a burglar alarm can be realized with which is issued as a deterrent to barking dogs.
  • the voice memory with any acoustic Characters are loaded.
  • the voice output is via a Speaker.
  • the object of the invention is a Monitoring device of the type described in the introduction create messages in multiple security areas can be exchanged.
  • the invention is based on the consideration that within a Residential or building complex with separate Monitoring facilities as part of a "neighborhood aid" security-related information is exchanged can be, for example, in the absence of residents of a building is sent an acoustic message to the neighbor leave if there are burglars in the house or the heating system has failed or water has entered.
  • This Exchange of information should be mutual, so that in eventuality many people with the support of Neighbors can count.
  • each a device for monitoring and triggering a fault message available This device has sensors for detecting a Surveillance area and to record an im Event, such as that unauthorized entry of a person into the surveillance area.
  • a data bus for example an EIB bus (European Installation Bus) provided on which one Language source is connected, in your own Security area a recorded acoustic message about can deliver a speaker.
  • EIB bus European Installation Bus
  • a recorded acoustic message about can deliver a speaker.
  • voice storage in the sense the invention is to be understood as a memory that not only Speech, but save any kind of acoustic signals and can spend.
  • One advantage of the invention is that a dangerous situation, such as an intrusion, can not only be warned in one's own security area, for example by issuing a warning to the burglar, which can be as follows: "You are a burglar, leave it Haus, "but the neighbor can also be alerted at the same time with a message that can read as follows:” At Meiers there is a break-in. " The neighbor so alarmed can quickly come to the aid or call the police.
  • the invention is particularly advantageous when the residents are not at home.
  • the apartment or house is then anyway secured.
  • This advantageous facility works in both directions; an error message can come from a security area in a second and vice versa one Fault message from the second security area to the first be delivered.
  • an error message can come from a security area in a second and vice versa one Fault message from the second security area to the first be delivered.
  • not only two Security areas are networked with each other, but several, so that security "within your own four walls" is easily improved.
  • the networking of several security areas can be done with one Data bus, for example EIB bus or another field bus such as BATIBUS done. If in individual security areas Data buses of the same type already exist Networking through a connection or via an interface or several interfaces.
  • connection "from neighbor to neighbor” can be made via a line, for example bus line, which may have a Interface is "adapted” with the networking of all Security areas are done and with the data telegrams be replaced.
  • the connection can also be made by radio or Infrared.
  • bus systems like EIB bus, INTERBUS S, PROFIBUS, LONBUS or BATIBUS together to network, this can be done with the help of gateways.
  • the language sources can be connected to the data bus and have an output, for example Nf output for connection to a voice transmission line.
  • the acoustic messages can be called up via the data bus and are also sent to the Voice transmission line connectable speakers output.
  • An event taking place in the area to be secured for example the unauthorized entry of a person into the Security area, can lead directly to a fault message in the Lead neighboring apartment or the neighboring building.
  • the operation of the language sources can be chosen so that all with an armed monitoring device Language sources are activated.
  • An event taking place in the area to be secured can therefore be issued by issuing a Notification in the security area and outside at the same time are displayed. It can be detected by a sensor Event in the area to be secured with that there installed another source message are considered as installed in the neighborhood area Language source as already mentioned.
  • the monitoring device can therefore monitor the sleeping resident warn of a burglar and can also wake the neighbors or inform the security service.
  • the parents or Neighbors can be alerted if smoke is released occurs: or fire breaks out. It is reported when the Heating goes to "fault”. It can be communicated acoustically be: "The freezer is thawing” or "There must be heating oil be refueled ".
  • the monitoring device consists of functional units (Modules) and can be completely in one housing or control cabinet can be installed or individual modules can be attached separately any place as needed and desired.
  • the individual functional units are preprogrammed.
  • the entry-level version of everyone Monitoring device can first of all Power supply, a switch actuator and one Motion detectors and a language source exist.

These functional units are with the Information network (data bus) interconnected and each have a bus coupler at the end points Connection of a sensor or actuator. With the bus couplers a signal telegram traffic can be carried out via the data bus, and Sensor telegrams are used to trigger a fault message Language source can be evaluated. This creates a decentralized one System with the signal telegrams in both directions exchanged, received commands evaluated and processed can be. By selecting group addresses of the bus couplers can the monitoring device of the "neighbor" with your own be linked.
