Abstract
A security system that includes provisions for alarm faults for the premises surrounding a building which includes a security panel including a microprocessor and memory, the security panel has an armed mode and a disarmed mode. The apparatus further includes a plurality of sensors disposed outside of a building, each of the sensors has an alarm fault condition and a no alarm fault condition and the security panel is programmable to produce a first set of responses to an alarm fault condition on any one or more of the plurality of sensors when the security panel is armed and to produce a second set of responses to an alarm fault condition on any one or more of the plurality of sensors when the security panel is disarmed. The invention also includes the method for improving the security of the premises surrounding the building which includes providing a security panel including a microprocessor and memory and having an armed mode and a disarmed mode; providing a plurality of sensors, having an alarm fault condition and a no alarm fault condition, disposed outside of a building; providing programmability in the security panel to produce a first set of responses to an alarm fault condition from any one or more of said plurality of sensors when said security panel is armed and to produce a second set of responses to an alarm fault condition when an alarm fault condition occurs in any one or more of the plurality of sensors when said security panel is disarmed.
