Abstract

The invention relates to a security system comprising: a first monitoring subsystem, said first monitoring subsystem being arranged to detect events within a first field of view using a first detection mechanism; a second monitoring subsystem, said monitoring subsystem being arranged to detect events within a second field of view using a second detection mechanism; a mounting arrangement configured to carry the first and second monitoring subsystems and mount them to a substrate; wherein in use, an alignable component of the first monitoring subsystem is configured to be orientated with respect to the mounting arrangement so that the first field of view covers an area to be monitored; and wherein the orientation of the alignable component of the first monitoring subsystem determines the orientation of the second field of view of the second monitoring subsystem.
