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).
