ABSTRACT:
A pool monitoring system including a monitoring unit with a detection mechanism adapted to transmit an alarm signal upon the detection of a human falling within the body of water. Further provided is a timer deactivation mechanism having a first mode of operation during which an activation signal is transmitted, wherein the activation signal is transmitted only while the timer deactivation mechanism is maintained in the first mode of operation. The timer deactivation mechanism further has a second mode of operation initiated by the receipt of a timer deactivation signal via free space. The timer deactivation mechanism is further maintained in the second mode of operation during a time period inherent in the timer deactivation signal. Also included is a transmitter mechanism connected to the sound detection mechanism and timer deactivation mechanism. The transmitter mechanism is adapted to transmit via free space a remote alarm activation signal upon the receipt of the alarm signal from the sound detection mechanism coincident with the receipt of the activation signal from the timer deactivation mechanism. Lastly, a remote alarm unit is situated distant the monitoring unit and includes a timer selection mechanism adapted to transmit via free space the deactivation signal indicative of the predetermined time period. The remote alarm unit further includes a remote receiver mechanism adapted to generate an audible noise upon the receipt of the remote alarm activation signal via free space.
