Remote Monitor System with Radio Dispatch
First Claim
1. A monitoring system comprising:
- a first remote monitoring device for detecting a first event condition and transmitting a first event signal;
a second remote monitoring device for detecting a second event condition and transmitting a second event signal;
a central monitoring unit, in communication with the first remote monitoring device and the second remote monitoring device, for receiving the first event signal and the second event signal, the central monitoring unit being adapted to broadcast a first prerecorded radio dispatch message when the central monitoring unit receives the first event signal and to broadcast a second prerecorded radio dispatch message when the central monitoring unit receives the second event signal.

Abstract
The present invention is directed toward systems and methods for providing a remote monitoring system with radio dispatch. In an exemplary embodiment, the present invention provides a central monitoring unit for receiving a first event signal from a first remote monitoring device, identifying the first remote monitoring device as the originator of the first event signal, accessing a first prerecorded dispatch message associated with the first event signal, and transmitting the first prerecorded dispatch message. The present invention may also include multiple remote monitoring units for detecting events at a plurality of remote monitoring locations. Upon detection, the remote monitoring units transmit an event signal to the central monitoring unit.
