- FIG. 1 compares to a horizontal surface 100, for example a ceiling, a detection device 105 which is the subject of the present invention, which comprises a sensor 1 10, a power supply 140 and an alarm 120.
- the sensor 1 10 is adapted to detect a predetermined value of a physical quantity external to the device 105, for example the presence of smoke or a heat greater than a limit value.
- the power supply 140 is autonomous, that is to say that it is not permanently connected to a constant source of energy, for example the sector.
- food electrical 140 is, for example, consisting of at least one battery or accumulator battery.
- the horn 120 is here represented as a horn, for example consisting of a loudspeaker or a piezoelectric material.
- the alarm 120 comprises a warning light, for example a light source.

- the communication network 170 is, for example, a telephone network or a computer network, for example the Internet.
- the server 175 is a voice server or a computer server. On call by the electronic device 155, the server 175 delivers a sound message, either voice or in a digital message. In both cases, the sound message can be stored in memory of the electronic device 155 and / or be immediately transmitted by the loudspeaker 160.
- Recognizable audio signals are, for example, DTMF signals (acronym for "Dual Tone Modulated Frequencies" for dual-tone modulated frequency) well known in the field of telephony.
- these sound signals comprise a succession of frequencies of predetermined duration, so that the detection of their reception is safer and can not be confused with other natural or artificial sounds.

- the user calls the server 175 or reads the sound message that it stores in memory after having received it from this server 175 and has it sent by the loudspeaker 160.
- sound message the control means 130 recognizes the predetermined sound signal, reads the state of the power supply 140 and sends a sound message by the alarm 120.
- This last sound message is representative of the operating state of the device 105 It is noted that the absence of transmission allows the user to know that the device 105 is out of order.
- the sound message can thus be a simple pulse or the alarm signal, reduced to about one second of emission.
- the frequency of a sinusoidal sound wave decreases with the level of energy available in the power supply 140 or the ratio of the silence duration of an intermittent signal over the duration of transmission of signals increases when the level of energy available in the power supply 140 decreases.
- the audible message from the horn 120 is more complex and may be up to a synthetic voice signal.
- the sound signal emitted by the alarm 120 is picked up by the electronic device 155 and transmitted to the server 175 which determines the state of the detection device.
- the audible signal emitted by the alarm 120 is representative of an identifier of the detection device 105, for example its serial number stored in non-volatile memory associated with the control means 130.
- the server 175 can keep information representative of the detection device tests performed, as well as the date of these tests. This memorization allows the user to prove that he has carried out tests of detection devices at regular intervals of time, for example with a period prescribed by the regulations.
- the server 175 sends an electronic mail to an email address of the user to attest that he has performed the prescribed tests.

- the control means 130 determines, according to the signal it receives from the sensor 1 10, whether a danger has been detected, by means of the physical quantity value detected by the sensor 10. If yes, during a step 215, the control means 130 sends an alarm signal to the alarm 120 or 145. Otherwise, or after the step 215, during a step 220, the control means 130 determines whether it recognizes a predetermined sound signal
- control means causes the measurement of at least one operating parameter value of the detection device 105, for example the state the power supply 140, during a step 225. Then, during a step 230, the control means triggers the transmission of a message by the alarm 120, for example a sound message representative of the energy level still available in the power supply 140.

- FIG. 5 shows, in the second embodiment of the method, the steps 205 to 220 of FIG. 3.
- step 217 of activation of an acousto-electric transducer, at regular time intervals.
- the acousto-electric transducer is activated by its power-up, preferably in conjunction with that of amplification means of its output signal.
- the transducer is activated after the emission of a light signal, as disclosed elsewhere.
- the transducer is activated every ten or twenty seconds.
- step 220 determines whether the predetermined predetermined signal is a test setpoint of the detection device. Otherwise, a step 260 is proceeded to. If yes, during a step 240, a measurement of value similar to that of step 225 of FIG. 3 is carried out. Then, during a step 245, the detection device performs a collection of test results of operation of other homologous detection devices. For this purpose, the detection device emits a predetermined test set sound signal with a power sufficient for the other detection devices to receive it and waits to receive, in return, the sound messages representative of the operating states of the other devices of the device. detection.
- a transmission order is implemented, either during the interrogation by the device 105, for example by successively identifying the other devices in the test instructions messages and waiting for their response before proceeding to the detection device next, or by providing, during installation, staggered response times of the other detection devices.
- each of the other detection devices is assigned a time interval during which it must, from the receipt of a test setpoint, issue its response.
- control means determines whether a maintenance of the detection installation comprising the detection devices must be carried out, according to the results of the measurements of the parameter values of operation.
- the detection device 105 emits a sound message representative of the measurement results and the possible need for maintenance operations.
- This message may be intended for the user, at the server 175, via device 155 and network 170 or to a home automation system adapted to communicate remotely and / or display text messages in the clear.
- step 255 we return to step 210. If the result of step 235 is negative, during a step 260, it is determined whether the predetermined signal recognized during step 220 is a temporary suspension order of operation. Otherwise, return to step 210. If yes, during a step 265, suspend the operation of the detection device and, if they are adapted to communicate with each other, other detection devices homologous. Then return to step 210 after a predetermined time delay, for example three hours.
- the user can perform activities that could trigger an alarm for the duration of this time, such as smoking, making a fire or cooking food.
- a user can test, in one go, each of his detection devices without having to physically reach the detection device and know whether maintenance operations are required. are necessary. The regularity of the operating tests is thus even more easily observed.
- means, especially software are provided for reducing the consumption of electrical energy.
- control means 130 does not operate the acousto-electric transducer, 135 or 145, and / or the eventual amplifier that amplifies the electrical signal that it emits at a regular time interval.
