Abstract:
A detector base device may provide auxiliary functionality to a smoke detector or other detector device. The detector base device may be distinct and separate from the smoke detector, and configured for physical mounting between the smoke detector and a junction box or other conventional mounting interface configured for direct mounting of the smoke detector (in a conventional mounting arrangement without the detector base device). Thus, the detector base device may include a first mounting structure (e.g., on a top side) for mounting the detector base device to the junction box or other conventional detector mounting interface, and a second mounting structure (e.g., at a bottom side) for mounting the smoke detector to the detector based device. The detector base device may include an auxiliary function system configured to provide auxiliary audio, communication, sensor-based detection, and/or data recording functions, and may also including a battery backup for line power outage.

Claim (Index 26):
The detector base device of  claim 20 , wherein:\n the auxiliary function system includes at least one sensor selected from the group consisting of a smoke sensor, a CO sensor, a CO 2  sensor, a sensor for sensing another gas, a heat sensor, a humidity sensor, and a motion sensor; and the detector base device logic device is configured to:\n detect a sensor-based condition based on the at least one sensor of the auxiliary function system of the detector base device; and \n in response to detecting the sensor-based condition, communicate an alert notification, via a wired or wireless network connection, to one or more other detector base devices at one or more different locations than the detector base device for output of an alert by the one or more other detector base devices at the one or more different locations.
