Abstract: A portable alarm system is disclosed, which includes a base unit that is selectively programable to report select trigger events to a monitoring station according to a programmed rule. An an app on a mobile electric device is configured to permit a user to override a programmed rule to cause a trigger event to be reported to the monitoring station in real time, where in the absence of such override, the programmed rule would not cause the trigger event to be reported to the monitoring station.

Abstract: A portable alarm system has a base unit including a processor electrically connected to a wireless transceiver configured to communicate wireless signals to an external location. The base unit is further configured to receive wireless alarm signals from at least a first sensor and a second sensor, both of the first and second sensors being physically separated from the base unit. The processor is configured to be selectively programmed by a user to cause the base unit to communicate with a remote monitoring station in response to receiving an alarm signal from the first sensor, but not in response to receiving an alarm signal from the second sensor. Instead, when an alarm signal is received from the second sensor, the processor causes a different action, other than communicating with the monitoring station, to occur. Such action can include, for example, sending a wireless communication to a mobile electronic device.
