Abstract: An alarm interface system and method receives intrusion alarm messages from an intrusion detection system. The alarm interface system organizes a group of the intrusion alarm messages into a time sequence. A highest priority alarm message is selected from the group. An analyzer analyzes the highest priority alarm message to extract raw locale information. The raw locale information is translated into refined locale information (e.g., a zone identifier) for inclusion in a central station-compatible data message.
