Abstract

A 2-way wireless security system is provided, which may include a control system adapted to remotely configure security-oriented peripherals; and one or more security-oriented peripherals, each of which may be adapted to be wirelessly configured by said control system. The control system may be adapted to bi-directionally and wirelessly communicate with the one or more security-oriented peripherals.

Claims

1. A security system comprising:

a control system adapted to remotely configure security-oriented peripherals; and

one or more security-oriented peripherals adapted to be wirelessly configured by said control system.

2. The security system according to claim 1, wherein the control system is adapted to bi-directionally and wirelessly communicate with the one or more security-oriented peripherals.

3. The security system according to claim 1, wherein a security-oriented peripheral is a configurable security detector.

4. The security system according to claim 3, wherein a configurable security detector is a passive Infrared motion detector.

5. The security system according to claim 1, wherein a security-oriented peripheral is a configurable wireless keypad.

6. The security system according to claim 5, wherein a security-oriented peripheral is a key fob.

7. The security system according to claim 1, wherein a security-oriented peripheral is a configurable wireless repeater.

8. The security system according to claim 1, wherein a security-oriented peripheral is a configurable wireless siren.

9. The security system according to claim 1, wherein the control system is further adapted to receive or generate configuration information, and to pass on the received or generated configuration information to an intended security-oriented peripheral.

10. The security system according to claim 9, wherein the control system is further adapted to receive from the security-oriented peripheral “

confirmation”

, “

acknowledge” and

“

failure”

messages associated with the reception and execution of the configuration information by said peripheral.

11. The security system according to claim 1, wherein the control system comprises:

a configuration module adapted to receive or generate configuration information; and

a bi-directional wireless communication module adapted to communicate received or generated configuration information to an intended security-oriented peripheral.

12. The security system according to claim 1, wherein a security-oriented peripheral comprises:

a bi-directional wireless communication module adapted to communicate with the control system; and

a configuration module adapted to employ configuration information received from the control system through said bi-directional wireless communication module.

13. A security-oriented peripheral comprising:

a bi-directional wireless communication module adapted to communicate with a security-oriented peripheral control system; and

a configuration module adapted to employ configuration information received from the control system through said bi-directional wireless communication module.

14. The security-oriented peripheral according to claim 13, wherein the security-oriented peripheral is a passive Infrared motion detector, wireless keypad, wireless key fob or a wireless router.

15. A security-oriented peripheral control system comprising:

a bi-directional wireless communication module adapted to communicate configuration information to a security-oriented peripheral.

16. The peripheral control system according to claim 15, wherein said peripheral is a passive Infrared motion detector, wireless keypad, wireless key fob, wireless repeater or wireless siren.

17. The peripheral control system according to claim 15, wherein said control system is a control panel associated with the security-oriented peripheral.

18. The peripheral control system according to claim 15, wherein said bi-directional wireless communication module is further adapted to receive from the peripheral “

confirmation”

, “

acknowledge” and

“

failure”

messages associated with the reception and execution of the configuration information by said peripheral.
