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: first detection means (40a, 40b), e.g. one or more movement sensors or shock sensors, for detecting the existence of a first alarm condition in the environment (10) being monitored; first reporting means (R1), operable in response to the first detection means (40a, 40b) having detected the existence of the said first alarm condition, for providing an output reporting the existence of the said first alarm condition; at least one second detection means (60a, 60b), e.g. one or more sound sensors, for detecting the existence of at least one respective second alarm condition in the environment (10) being monitored; at least one second reporting means (R2), operable in response to the or a respective said second detection means (60a, 60b) having detected the existence of the or a respective said second alarm condition, for providing an output reporting the existence of the or the respective second alarm condition; actuation means (ACT), operable in response to the outputs of the first reporting means (R1) and the or the respective second reporting means (R2), for providing an actuating output only when both of the outputs of the first reporting means (R1) and the or the respective second reporting means (R2) have each reported the existence of their respective first and second or respective second alarm conditions; and alarm indicator means (AL), e.g. one or more visual and/or audible alarm warning indicator(s), operable in response to the actuating output of the said actuation means (ACT), for indicating that the said first and/or the said second alarm condition(s) has/have been detected by the first (40a, 40b) and/or the second (60a, 60b) detection means.30 The inclusion of the second detection means (60a), second reporting means (R2) and the actuation means (ACT) serves as a secondary or confirmatory/validating aspect or sub- system of the system in order to verify the genuineness of the detected first alarm condition, thereby avoiding or reducing the occurrence of false alarms occurring.
