Systems and methods for updating software in a hazard detection system

說明書
Hazard detection system 300 can enforce alarm and pre-alarm priorities depending on which conditions are present. For example, if elevated smoke and CO conditions exist at the same time, the smoke alarm state and/or pre-alarm smoke state may take precedence over the CO alarm state and/or CO pre-alarm state. If a user silences the smoke alarm or smoke pre-alarm, and the CO alarm state or CO pre-alarm state is still active, system 300 may provide an indication (e.g., a voice notification) that a CO alarm or pre-alarm has also been silenced. If a smoke condition ends and the CO alarm or pre-alarm is event is still active, the CO alarm or pre-alarm may be presented to the user.
Multi-criteria state machines 310 can transition to an idling state when it determines that relatively little or no dangerous conditions exist. The idling state can enforce a relatively low level of hazard detection system activity. For example, in the idle state, the data sampling rates of one or more sensors may be set at relatively slow intervals. Multi-criteria state machines 310 can transition to a monitoring state when it determines that sensor data values have risen to a level that warrants closer scrutiny, but not to a level that transitions to a pre-alarming or alarming state. The monitoring state can enforce a relatively high level of hazard detection system activity. For example, the data sampling rates of one or more sensors may be set at relatively fast intervals. In addition, the data sampling rates of one or more sensors may be set at relatively fast intervals for alarming states 330, pre-alarming states 340, or both.
