By Lucille Green

The system is comprised of sensors, which are distributed all through the house, and a control panel which receives signals to watch the activities of the house when it is turned on. The wireless burglar alarms rely on using radio waves to transmit information from the sensing components directly to the control board.

The control board serves as the brain of the alarm system which is situated in a secured place such as a closet or the basement where it is responsible monitor the signals sent by the motion sensors. The control panel notifies the security office and personnel when the presence of an intruder is detected.

Next is the keypad which is used in order to activate or disarm the burglar alarm system but it also comprises the code that must be kept concealed. For night use, it is designed to be illuminated and can be set-up with a one-touch setting so that it will be simple to arm and disarm it. Another of its elements is the magnetic contacts which are placed in the zones to be safeguarded, usually on doors and windowpanes, the openings in the home where the intruder could possibly pass. When the keypad is active, the magnet will detect the opening on one of its zones, triggering the alarm.

The wireless burglar alarms also have detectors and can take a cue of any movement in their covered area so even if you are not present the alarm will get triggered. These detectors are generally positioned where where no-one is expected to be and once any of the sensors register any movement, the alarm is triggered.

You are guaranteed that generally free security systems in the market are of superior standard because the system is generally supplied by big security security companies that operate using the income produced by supervising the system.
