This patent refers to an electronic equipment unit, which is intended to collects, process and transfer data from a certain area, which it monitors, to a telemetry system. In more detail, data are collected from various intrusion monitoring sensors (e.g. infra-red or microwave detectors), water level detectors, smoke detectors, electrical supply watchdogs etc. These sensor are external and use the logic circuits of the printed circuit board. The above mentioned data are suitably processed by the unit and the output is sent to a telemetry system via an external interface box. The advantages of this patent is the small size of the device and the low cost of the construction and operation of the device. It integrates on one printed circuit board (PCB) the processor and the logic circuits of a variety of sensors. Owing to its small size, the device can be easily installed inside sealed cellular telephony antenna shelters (outdoor shelters).
1) An electronic device of compact design and construction characterized in that the above device collects, processes and transmits data from a specific area, which it supervises, to an information collection system, located at a long distance from the supervised area. The device in concern comprises a microprocessor, and sensors connected to it and is pertained by the integration on the same electronic printed circuit of the microprocessor with the sensors logical circuits, the reduction of the circuit dimensions and its compact construction structure.
5) An electronic device as claimed in any of the above claims characterized in that it integrates on the electronic printed circuit of two or more additional independent relay circuits serving the signaling needs.
6) An electronic device as claimed in any of the above claims characterized in that it is designed for use in the antenna shelters.
8) An electronic device as claimed in any of the above claims characterized in that the electronic printed circuit is placed in a case consisting of a base, with four side walls and a detachable cover and is made of a material (e.g. metal) providing safety to the staff, protection from environmental elements and electromagnetic shielding from and to the environment.
