Abstract

In an improved intrusion detection device system of the dual-sensor type, wherein one sensor is a PIR sensor and the other is a microwave sensor, the improvement comprises counting the detection of intrusion separately by the microwave sensor and by the passive infrared sensor. Thereafter, the counts by the two separate detectors are compared and an indication is given if the number exceeds a certain user selectable threshold, to indicate fault in one of the two sensor subsystems.
