Zusammenfassung:A method is provided for analyzing a monitoring signal from a sensing system to determine an alarm condition, where the monitoring signal is provided as a stream of digital values which are analyzed using a frequency-based or time-based algorithm to generate a plot of elements, applying a delta to each element of the plot of elements to adjust sensitivity thereof to provide a threshold and comparing a plurality of the elements of the stream with the threshold and triggering the alarm condition in the event that the threshold is exceeded; where the algorithm is changed in different time periods in response to ambient conditions of the environment determined for those time periods.
