1. A device comprising:
- at least one environmental sensor;
a control processor that compares data from the at least one environmental sensor with a reference value, the processor providing an output indicating the environmental data exceeds the reference value;
a communication interface coupled to the processor, the communication interface transfers the output of the control processor to a remotely located control panel; and
an interactive display coupled to the processor, the display depicting environmental data from the at least one environmental sensor for a predetermined time period after activation of the interactive display by a user and a blank screen thereafter.

7. A device comprising:
-
a wall mounted housing; an environmental sensor of the housing; a control processor of the housing that compares data from the environmental sensor with a reference set point value, the processor providing an output indicating the environmental data exceeds the reference value; a communication interface of the housing used by the processor to transfer the output of the control processor to a remotely located control panel; an interactive display disposed on the housing; and a display screen interface associated with to the processor, the interface assumes a default state where the interface displays a blank screen on the display and an active state where the interface displays data from the environmental processor on the display, the interface assuming the default state each time the interactive display has not been activated for a first predetermined time period. - View Dependent Claims (8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13)

14. A device comprising:
-
a wall mounted enclosure; an environmental sensor system within the enclosure detecting environmental conditions proximate the wall mounted enclosure; a communication interface that communicates at least one environmental parameter of the environmental sensor system to a remotely located controller; and an interactive display disposed on the enclosure, the display depicting a real time environmental parameter detected by the environmental sensor system, but only for a predetermined time after activation of the interactive display by a user and, after the predetermined time, the interactive display becomes blank. - View Dependent Claims (15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
