This is detected by a corresponding sensor (eg a door or window contact, motion detector or smoke detector).

The detector reports the event to the main control panel. The signal is transmitted either via cable or by a wireless system.

The control panel is the alarm system’s brain. It evaluates the signals and decides what to do next

Depending on how the control panel is programmed, this chain of events culminates in a reaction: eg the siren sounds, the strobe is triggered or a monitoring station is notified
