  • Patent number: 8150538
    Abstract: A triggering and activating device and an automated process coupling two reciprocally activatable monitoring devices or operational-intervention devices. A first synchronizing module synchronizes transmissible operational-intervention parameters of a lookup table with operational devices assigned to the first monitoring device, and a second synchronizing module synchronizes storable threshold-value parameters for activating the second monitoring device. Physical measuring parameters of intervention events are detected and transmitted to the activating device, an intervention-event stack being correspondingly incremented by a first filter module based on the physical measuring parameters and a dynamically implemented weighting of the lookup table.

  • Patent number: 8022819
    Abstract: Electronic control apparatus (20) and method for controlling cellular alarm systems (10/11), wherein, by means of sensors (201) of the control apparatus (20), physical measurement parameters (202) of occurring measurement events (203) are triggered and are filtered on the basis of predefined threshold values (204). The alarm systems (10/11) are selected and activated electronically if at least one of the threshold values (204) is exceeded. For the purpose of activation, dedicated activation signals (101) are generated by means of the control apparatus (20) and transmitted to the alarm systems (10/11). By means of a counter module (21) of the control apparatus (20), the generated activation signals (101) are cumulated, as a counter signal (211), within a predefined time window (205) upon each activation.
