Vehicle alarm system
First Claim
1. A vehicle alarm system comprising:
- a remote control for activation and deactivation of said alarm system;
a multiplicity of sensors for detecting an alarm event;
a siren;
a control unit comprising;
monitoring circuitry for monitoring said multiplicity of sensors;
a receiver for receiving signals from said remote;
an activation and deactivation circuit for activating and deactivating said vehicle alarm system based on signals from said receiver;
a cellular telephone interface unit; and
an alarm triggering unit;
whereupon the detection of said alarm event from one of said multiplicity of sensors said control unit activates said siren through said alarm triggering unit, and whereupon the detection of said alarm event from one of said multiplicity of sensors, said control unit, through said cellular telephone interface unit, calls a telephone number of a user;
and whereupon the detection of said alarm event from one of said multiplicity of sensors, said control unit signals to said user the cause of the alarm event.

Abstract
A vehicle alarm system comprising a remote control for activation and deactivation of the alarm system, a multiplicity of sensors for detecting an alarm event, a siren, and a control unit which comprise monitoring circuitry for monitoring the multiplicity of sensors, a receiver for receiving signals from the remote control, an activation and deactivation circuit for activating and deactivating the vehicle alarm system based on signals from the receiver, a cellular telephone interface unit, and an alarm triggering unit, whereupon the detection of an alarm event from one of the multiplicity of sensors, the control unit activates the siren through the alarm triggering unit, and whereupon the detection of an alarm event from one of the multiplicity of sensors, the control unit, through the cellular telephone interface unit, calls a telephone number of a user; and whereupon the detection of an alarm event from one of the multiplicity of sensors, the control unit signals to the user the cause of the alarm event.

11. A vehicle alarm system comprising:
-
a remote control for activation and deactivation of said alarm system, wherein said remote control is adapted to send a signal that is security coded and said signal differentiates between individual users;
a multiplicity of sensors for detecting an alarm event, including an automatic zeroing tilt sensor comprising;
a tilt sensitive diaphragm for producing a tilt value;
comparison circuitry;
activation circuitry; and
a memory unit;
wherein said activation circuitry signals to said memory unit upon activation of said vehicle alarm system to store tilt value at a moment shortly after said activation;
and wherein said comparison circuitry compares said memory to said tilt value and sends an alarm event if the two become different.;
a siren;
a control unit comprising;
monitoring circuitry for monitoring said multiplicity of sensors;
a receiver for receiving signals from said remote;
an activation and deactivation circuit for activating and deactivating said vehicle alarm system based on signals from said receiver, wherein said activation and deactivation circuit is adapted to check said security code within said signals;
a cellular telephone interface unit; and
an alarm triggering unit;
whereupon the detection of said alarm event from one of said multiplicity of sensors said control unit activates said siren through said alarm triggering unit, and whereupon the detection of said alarm event from one of said multiplicity of sensors, said control unit, through said cellular telephone interface unit, calls a telephone number of a user, said telephone number being determined by said signals from said remote control;
and whereupon the detection of said alarm event from one of said multiplicity of sensors, said control unit signals to said user the cause of the alarm event.
