Abstract

An alarm system (12) for monitoring an environment (10), e.g. a house or business premises, on one or more security criteria, e.g. intruder/burglar detection or fire detection, the system (12) comprising: at least one detection means (P1, P2), e.g. one or more PIR movement sensors, operable to detect the existence of at least one alarm condition in the environment (10) being monitored; first reporting means, operable in response to a first instance of the detection means (P1, P2) detecting the existence of said alarm condition, for providing an output reporting the said first instance of the existence of said alarm condition being detected; at least one second reporting means, operable in response to at least one second or15 further instance, or respective second or further instance, of the detection means (P1, P2) detecting the existence of said alarm condition, for providing an output reporting the or the respective said second or further instance of the existence of said alarm condition being detected; actuation means, actuatable in response to the outputs of the first reporting means and the or the respective second reporting means, for providing an actuating output only when both of the outputs of the first reporting means and the or the respective second reporting means have each reported their respective first and second or further or respective second or further instances of the existence of said alarm condition being detected; and alarm indicator means (20), operable in response to the actuating output of the said actuation means, for indicating that the existence of the said alarm condition has been detected. The inclusion of the second reporting means to report a secondary or confirmatory/validating instance of the first alarm condition being detected as existing therefore serves to verify the genuineness of the detected first alarm condition, thereby avoiding or reducing the occurrence of false alarms.
