ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to an automatic control system for a security apparatus, comprising a portable transmitter unit and a receiver unit to be placed in a monitored space and provided with a processor for processing the received data and with control outputs for connecting the security apparatus in a data transmission contact with communication and/or alarm equipment.
Traditionally, the control of personal clearance, property, and health security systems is performed by means of a control keyboard and/or control switches under the self-acting control of a user. Personal clearance is generally carried out by using separate equipment and various clearance passes or cordless transmitters activated by external control. In property-related security systems, a keyboard is used e.g. for switching a burglar surveillance on and off. In health security systems, a control switch is used for controlling e.g. a passivity surveillance by means of a home/away switch. Referring especially to children and the elderly, the above control systems are too sophisticated and cause unnecessary alarms and restrict the use of security equipment. Also, false alarms in alarm systems are most commonly caused by operating errors, regarding both automobile alarms and buildings. In addition, security systems for a building and an automobile require their own operating equipment of the above type. In personal clearance equipment, the service is generally limited to controlling the clearance passes.
An object of the invention is to create an automatic control system for security equipment, wherein a common control apparatus is used for controlling clearance passes, building-, health-, and automobile-related security equipment automatically without the self-acting control of a user. The personal clearance operation also features an automatic locating system.
This object is achieved on the basis of the characterizing features set forth in the appended claim

.
Another novelty in the control system is that the user is able to control all pieces of equipment by means of a single wrist-held monitoring device, which also enables the monitoring of a physical condition both in a building and outdoors. When connected to a mobile phone, it provides a portable security system.
