These messages are also considered to be alarm messages in the context of this standard. The term "alarm" is used in this broad sense throughout the document. This European Standard specifies the requirements for the performance, reliability and security characteristics of alarm transmission systems. Additional alarm transmission requirements of specific types of alarm systems are given in the relevant European Standards.
