Differentiate passive and active electronic monitoring systems

What will be an ideal response?


• With active systems, the central location maintains a computerized schedule of when offenders should be in their homes and automatically "alarms" or sends a notice when the signal is not communicated between the transmitter and receiver during those times. The passive system requires random telephone calls during times the offender should be in the home. When a monitoring telephone call is received, offenders have a certain amount of time to place the receiver against the transmitter, proving that they are at home.
