Configurable remote notification of detected events
First Claim
1. A system comprising:
- a monitoring module having an interface for actively controlling one or more security sensors, the monitoring module configured to;
monitor a security sensor device that is interfaced to the monitoring module;
receive an event from the monitored security sensor device;
communicate an event notification for the received event to a remote service;
the remote service comprising a server and configured to;
receive the communicated event notification; and
notify a remote user device of the received event notification; and
wherein the remote service is responsive to commands initiated by the remote user device, which is remote of the remote service and a location being monitored and which may be the remote user device or an alternative remote user device, to establish a link between the remote user device and the monitoring module to cause the interface thereof to initiate a change in the operative state of at least one of the security sensors.

Abstract
Systems and methods for providing registration at a remote site that may include, for example, a monitoring module that may communicate with a remote site. A registration protocol may be used by the monitoring module and the remote site in generating the messages communicated during the registration process. The monitoring module may gather and generate various identification information to be included in the registration protocol messages. The registration information provided by the monitoring module maybe stored at the remote site in a database server having a database. A confirmation message may be communicated from the remote site to the monitoring module that may either acknowledge successful registration or report that an error occurred during the registration process.

1. A system comprising:
-
a monitoring module having an interface for actively controlling one or more security sensors, the monitoring module configured to; monitor a security sensor device that is interfaced to the monitoring module; receive an event from the monitored security sensor device; communicate an event notification for the received event to a remote service; the remote service comprising a server and configured to; receive the communicated event notification; and
notify a remote user device of the received event notification; andwherein the remote service is responsive to commands initiated by the remote user device, which is remote of the remote service and a location being monitored and which may be the remote user device or an alternative remote user device, to establish a link between the remote user device and the monitoring module to cause the interface thereof to initiate a change in the operative state of at least one of the security sensors. - View Dependent Claims (2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7)

8. A method of notification to a remote user device of an event detected by a security sensor, the method comprising:
-
receiving, at a remote service via a monitoring module, the event from the security sensor, the monitoring module having an interface for actively controlling one or more security sensors; determining a type of the event; identifying a notification action assigned to the type of the event; and communicating a notification of the event to the remote user device, using the identified notification action; and wherein the remote service is responsive to commands initiated by the remote user device, which is remote of the remote service and a location being monitored and which may be the remote user device or an alternative remote user device, to establish a link between the remote user device and the monitoring module to cause the interface thereof to initiate a change in the operative state of at least one of the security sensors. - View Dependent Claims (9, 10, 11, 12, 13)

14. A remote service comprising:
-
a processor; and memory comprising instructions that are executable to configure the remote service to; receive an event notification from a monitored security sensor that forwards the event notification of an event via a monitoring module, the monitoring module having an interface for actively controlling one or more security sensors; determine, based on the received event notification, a type of the event; identify a notification action assigned to the type of the event; and transmit a notification to a remote user device using the identified notification action; wherein the remote service is responsive to commands initiated by the remote user device, which is remote of the remote service and a site being monitored and which may be the remote user device or an alternative remote user device, to establish a link between the remote user device and the monitoring module to cause the interface thereof to initiate a change in the operative state of at least one of the security sensors. - View Dependent Claims (15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
