In one implementation, a universal translator device for translating protocols, the device includes one or more peripheral device interfaces through which communication from one or more peripheral devices is received using any of a plurality of protocols; a protocol translator that is (i) preconfigured with translation mappings to translate between each possible permutation of the plurality of protocols and (ii) programmed to translate, using the translation mappings, signals received from the peripheral devices into at least one target protocol; and a wireless interface that is configured to transmit wireless signals in the target protocol, the wireless signals having been translated into the target protocol by the protocol translator.

Universal protocol translator

In one implementation, a method for detecting a configuration of wireless sensors within a vicinity includes a method of assessing wireless sensors in the vicinity of an application computing system. The application computing system is operated in a listen mode to receive and record wireless transmissions produced by one or more wireless sensors producing wireless transmissions in the vicinity of the application computing system. The recorded wireless transmissions are evaluated using a rule set that embodies normal operating characteristics of various types of wireless sensors in an operating environment to generate a conclusion regarding at least one attribute of at least one wireless sensor that produced the recorded wireless transmissions. The generated conclusion can be used so that the at least one wireless sensor is utilized in the application computing system.

Techniques are provided that enable a wireless security system that is designed to detect and receive wireless transmissions in one protocol, to use sensor-transmitters that operate in a different protocol. The techniques involve, generally, the use of an integration device, and in some implementations, first enrolling sensor-transmitters of a first protocol into the integration device, along with device type information for the sensor-transmitters. Thereafter, during system operation, transmissions with message packets in the first message packet protocol are received by the integration device, recognized as having been previously enrolled, and a message packet in a second message packet protocol that includes device type information is then formulated and transmitted by the integration device, for receipt by a system control device for the wireless security system. In some scenarios, an enrollment process need not be done in the integration device, and the integration device is utilized in the communication process.
