A network of wirelessly connected sanitary appliances, their associated
triggering devices and a remotely located network node is disclosed. The
remotely located network node permits the monitoring and gathering of
information concerning the appliances and their associated triggering
devices. The network node can be connected to a LAN and/or the internet
allowing the node to communicate with responsible parties. In addition, a
control board having a central processing unit is wirelessly connected as
an intermediary between the appliances and triggering devices and the
network node. Communication between the appliances and their triggering
devices uses low frequency RF signals. Communication to the remotely
located network node uses high frequency RF signals.
