Definitions
- the present invention relates to methods and devices for securing goods against theft according to the preambles of the independent claims.
- Devices for securing goods against theft which have a receiver, the receiver being in permanent operation, so that the security part has a high power consumption, which is undesirable, in particular, in the case of battery-operated security parts.
- known devices have the disadvantage that, for example, when several fuse parts are operated with a common central unit, a laborious selection of a special fuse part to be controlled next is required, for example by appropriate input by an operator, before the special fuse part can be activated.
- the object of the present invention is to provide methods and devices for securing goods against theft in such a way that operation and handling are simplified and the operating time is increased.
- the features that the receiver is deactivated in the monitoring state result in a reduction in the power consumption of the devices according to the invention, so that the operating time of the devices is increased.
- a device according to the invention cannot be influenced by any signals as soon as it has deactivated its receiver in the monitoring state.
- a fault in a device according to the invention due to incorrect reception of signals is thus ruled out.
- the energy consumption of the device according to the invention in its monitoring state is reduced in that the receiver is deactivated.
- the monitoring state usually represents the state in which the device is in most of the time. In the alarm state, however, the receiver is activated. This alarm state, however, takes up a considerably shorter period of time than the monitoring state. This also reduces the energy consumption of the device according to the invention.
- the device according to the invention can be operated by the operator via the receiver in this alarm state.
- the device according to the invention can, on the one hand, be a securing part that functions as a so-called “standing alone security part "is operated. This means that with the security part essentially only a single item, for example a single cell phone, can be secured against theft. For each additional item, a corresponding, corresponding security item is required.
- the security parts of the different items are independent of one another in this case, the features according to the invention relate to a single securing part of this type.
- the device according to the invention can be a central unit with a plurality of security parts that can be connected to it.
- each of the securing parts can be assigned to a product, so that a plurality of products can be monitored simultaneously with this device according to the invention.
- the features according to the invention relate to the central unit.
- the alarm state is ended when the receiver is acted upon by a transmitter.
- the receiver is activated during the transition from the monitoring state to the alarm state.
- signals which are emitted by the transmitter can be received by those devices which are in their alarm state and whose receiver is thus activated.
- selection signals the alarm state can then be ended and the device according to the invention can be correctly arranged on the goods again, for example after an attempted theft.
- the operator therefore does not have to laboriously select the device, for example by making an appropriate entry, which is in the alarm state, but the operator can only end the alarm state by actuating the transmitter. Since only the receiver of the device in the alarm state is activated, only this device is influenced. All other devices remain unaffected, which is synonymous with the aforementioned automatic selection of the device which is in the alarm state. Obviously, this represents a significant simplification of the operation of the device according to the invention. The same also applies if several devices according to the invention are in their alarm state.
- a switchover from a switched-on state to a connection mode takes place when the receiver is acted upon by the transmitter.
- the receiver is activated in the switched-on state. It is thus possible for the device according to the invention to be put into the connection mode in a targeted manner by an operator, the device in the connection mode then being able to be prepared for a transition to the monitoring state.
- the operator can take the necessary measures to prepare the device for the monitoring state, that is to say ultimately to "arm" it. This can be done, for example, by attaching a securing part to the goods, the Damage or disconnection in the monitored state of the device leads to an alarm.
- a holding part of the securing part is attached to the goods, with monitoring of the holding part for proper attachment to the goods being activated.
- the device according to the invention is continuously checked to see whether the holding part is properly attached to the goods. If the holding part is attached to the goods within the predeterminable waiting time, the monitoring is activated without the device being first given an alarm. This represents the normal operating sequence when a holding part is connected to the goods. If the holding part is not fastened to the goods within the predefinable waiting time and the monitoring is thus activated, the device according to the invention is, as already mentioned, set in alarm. As mentioned, this makes it easier to identify holding parts that have not yet been attached to the goods.
- groups of devices according to the invention each of which is assigned to the same transmitter.
- Such groups can be a group of related "stand-alone security parts" or a group of related central units, in the second case, as already mentioned, a plurality of security parts can be connected to each of the central units.
- the device according to the invention does not end the alarm state if a selection signal received during the alarm is different from the selection signal received after switching on. This ensures that the same transmitter or the same selection signal must be used to end the alarm state of a device as after the device was switched on.
- the device according to the invention can preferably be switched off by switching off a power supply to the fuse part.
- the selection signal received is lost because the selection signal is stored in a volatile memory, for example in a so-called random access memory (RAM), in the receiver of the device.
- RAM random access memory
- the invention provides for a selection signal to be transmitted from one transmitter to at least one further transmitter, so that selection signals, including coded selection signals, can be copied to a plurality of transmitters. This results, for example, in the possibility that different operators can simultaneously receive control over a specific group of devices according to the invention.
- optical and / or acoustic signal transmitters can be used, which are provided in the security part or in the central unit. Due to their low power consumption, light-emitting diodes as optical signal transmitters and piezo sound transducers as acoustic signal transmitters are particularly favorable. In the invention, these signal transmitters are used, for example, to indicate an alarm state and thus an alarm.
- An advantageous embodiment of the invention provides for the signal transmitters to be arranged in the interior of the device according to the invention, with a housing being at least partially translucent or transparent, so that the optical signal generated by the light-emitting diode can also be clearly perceived outside the security part or the central unit.
- a housing being at least partially translucent or transparent, so that the optical signal generated by the light-emitting diode can also be clearly perceived outside the security part or the central unit.
- Translucent housing or translucent housing sections of the device are particularly advantageous here because the signal effect of the optical signal is further increased by scattering effects on the translucent housing parts which are usually formed from plastic.
- a further advantageous embodiment of the method according to the invention provides that the optical and / or acoustic signal modulates depending on the remaining waiting time, i.e. For example, its intensity or frequency is changed. Such a modulation allows an operator to estimate the remaining waiting time in a simple manner and, in particular, to adapt their work processes when configuring the device according to the invention to the remaining waiting time.
- a particularly simple handling of the device according to the invention is given in a further variant, in which the selection signal is transmitted from the transmitter to the receiver by means of a remote control.
- a remote control In principle, it is possible to use optical remote controls, e.g. Use infrared-based remote controls. Radio remote controls, however, allow an even simpler handling of the invention, since a direct line of sight between the transmitter of the radio remote control and the receiver located in the device according to the invention is not required.
- Another advantageous embodiment of the method according to the invention provides that a state of the energy supply of the device according to the invention is monitored.
- a state of the energy supply of the device according to the invention is monitored.
- the transmitter selectively transmits one of a plurality of predefinable selection signals, which in turn codes could be. An operator can select the desired selection signal, for example, by means of a switch attached to the remote control.
- Another variant of the invention provides that when a holding part is fastened to the goods and / or when a fastening part is fastened to a preferably theft-proof fastening point, the monitoring is activated by closing a measuring loop formed by sensor means in the holding part or in the fastening part.
- the measuring loop is opened when trying to separate the holding part from the goods or the fastening part from the fastening point or the holding part from the fastening part or the securing part from the central unit, in particular by separating the connecting means.
- the measuring loop of the holding part and the measuring loop of the fastening part are connected in series.
- the sensor means are designed as electrical or optical sensor means, ohmic sensor means, for example in the form of metal foil-like conductor loops, being particularly advantageous.
- the holding part and / or the fastening part is provided with an adhesive layer Attachment of the holding part on the goods or for fastening the fastening part to the fastening point.
- the double-sided adhesive tape sold by the company Beiersdorf under the trade name "Tesa Power Strip” has proven to be particularly well suited in practice for the purposes mentioned above. It is also conceivable to use other double-sided adhesive strips or the like.
- a further advantageous embodiment of the invention provides that the adhesive layer (s) has a grip tab.
- the adhesive layer can be gripped at this grip tab and can thus be removed in a simple manner from the goods or also from the holding part or the fastening point or also the fastening part.
- the double-sided adhesive tape can be removed from the goods without residues. In this case it is also possible that the tape is reused.
- the sensor means can be at least partially integrated into the adhesive layer, so that the installation space required for the sensor means is reduced.
- part of a measuring loop can be arranged directly on the adhesive layer, for example in the form of an electrically conductive graphite layer or a foil conductor arrangement.
- the receiver is accommodated in the device according to the invention, in particular in the fastening part or in the central unit.
- the fastening part has a battery compartment, so that an energy supply for the safety part, for example in the form of a battery, can be accommodated directly in the safety part.
- a further advantageous embodiment of the device according to the invention proposes that the holding part has a first holding area and a second holding area, which is preferably of a flat design, the second holding area being more flexible than the first holding area.
- This offers the possibility of adapting the holding part in the second holding area particularly well to round shapes of the goods to be secured.
- the increased flexibility of the second holding area compared to the first holding area can be achieved, for example, by choosing a material thickness of the holding part in the second holding area less than a material thickness of the holding part in the first holding area.
- the material thickness in the first area is to be chosen sufficiently large to enable the holding part to be securely attached to the securing part.
- the holding part For fastening the holding part to the fastening part, for example, a combined hanging and / or latching device and / or a coupling by means of a magnet is conceivable, which enables releasable fastening. This enables an attractive presentation of a product attached to the holding part.
- the holding part can be disengaged, detached or removed from the fastening part.
- the connecting means are particularly advantageously designed as cables, in particular as ribbon cables.
- a retractor for the cable is provided in the securing part, by means of which the cable can be rolled up in the securing part when not in use.

- FIG. 4 shows a section of a state diagram which represents an embodiment of the security method according to the invention
- Figure 5 schematically shows another
- the security part 1 is used to secure goods in particular against theft.
- the securing part 1 has a holding part 2 and a fastening part 3.
- the holding part 2 is connected to the fastening part 3 via connecting means 4.
- a receiver 6 is accommodated in the fastening part 3 and can be acted upon by an operator using a transmitter 5.
- the fastening part 3 serves to fasten the security part 1 to a fastening point, preferably formed by an object (not shown) that is not at risk of theft, for example a goods shelf or the like.
- the fastening part 3 has an adhesive layer, not shown, which is formed from a double-sided adhesive tape.
- the double-sided adhesive tape is preferably the double-sided adhesive tape sold by the Beiersdorf company under the trade name "Tesa Power Strip".
- a measuring loop is integrated in the adhesive layer and has a metal foil-like conductor arrangement. This measuring loop is interrupted as soon as, e.g. in the event of an attempted theft, the fastening part 3 is detached from the fastening point.
- a sensor element with such an adhesive layer is described in detail in German utility model DE 202 13 672.8.
- fastening part 3 It is possible to equip the fastening part 3 with the adhesive layer provided for attachment to the fastening point already during its manufacture.
- This will be a page of the double-sided adhesive tape forming the adhesive layer is aligned and fastened on the fastening part 3 in such a way that two or more connection points of the measuring loop provided in the adhesive layer contact corresponding connection points on the fastening part, so that the measuring loop of the fastening part is closed.
- the measuring loop is formed from a surface section of the adhesive layer coated with graphite, which connects the connection points of the fastening part to one another (see DE 202 13 672.8).
- the adhesive layer adheres more strongly to the fastening point than to the fastening part 3, so that when an attempt is made to remove the fastening part 3 from the fastening point, the measuring loop is reliably interrupted and an alarm is consequently triggered.
- the adhesive layer 2a used for this purpose advantageously also consists of a “tesa power strip”, which contains a measuring loop or at least parts thereof, which connects the corresponding connection points (not shown) in the holding part 2 and thus the measuring loop of the holding part 2 closes when the adhesive layer 2a is properly and correctly aligned adhered to the holding part 2.
- a “tesa power strip” which contains a measuring loop or at least parts thereof, which connects the corresponding connection points (not shown) in the holding part 2 and thus the measuring loop of the holding part 2 closes when the adhesive layer 2a is properly and correctly aligned adhered to the holding part 2.
- the measuring loops of the fastening part 3 and the holding part 2 are connected in series.
- An electrical connection of the two measuring loops or also the measuring loop of the holding part 2 with the fastening part 3 is ensured by the connecting means 4 designed as a ribbon cable. Both the interruption of one of the measuring loops or both measuring loops, as well as a cutting of the ribbon cable then leads to an alarm being triggered.
- the holding part 2 of the securing part la has, in one embodiment of the invention, a first holding area 2b and a second, flat area-shaped second holding area 2c.
- the first holding area 2b has a high strength due to a relatively large material thickness, which allows the holding part 2 to be securely fastened to the fastening part 3, for example by means of a combined hanging and / or latching mechanism and / or a coupling by means of a magnet.
- the second holding area 2c. of the holding part 2 has a smaller material thickness and is therefore flexible and resiliently deformable, so that the holding part 2, particularly in the second holding area 2c, can also be optimally adapted to round surfaces of the goods 200 (FIG. 1) in order to provide a contact surface to be provided with the adhesive layer 2a maximize between the holding part 2 and the goods 200.
- the securing part la in contrast to the other securing parts 1b and 1c, the securing part la (cf. also FIG. 3a) has no connecting means 4 which are visible from the outside in the state shown.
- the securing part la is a retractor 9 arranged in the fastening part 3 has, which is loaded with a torsion spring (not shown) and allows the ribbon cable 4 to be rolled up in the securing part 1 a, so that the ribbon cable 4 does not hang around freely, while the holding part 2 by means of the hanging and locking mechanism or by means of the magnet in or is held on the fastening part 3.
- a torsion spring not shown
- the securing part la has a battery compartment 8 for receiving a battery which is used as an energy supply for the securing part la.
- a light-emitting diode 7a and a piezo-acoustic transducer 7b are also provided in the security part 1a, which emit optical and / or acoustic alarm signals when an attempted theft has been detected.
- a certain flashing sequence of the light-emitting diode 7a signals when a state of charge of the battery (not shown) that is permanently monitored during operation of the security part la deteriorates, so that an operator is informed of the need to change the security part la of the security part.
- a particularly high signal effect of the optical signals emitted by the light-emitting diode 7a can be achieved in that the housing of the fastening part 3 is at least partially translucent, so that light emitted by the light-emitting diode 7a arranged within the fastening part 3 is scattered by the translucent housing areas.
- the adhesive layer 2a of the holding part 2 has a gripping tab 2d, on which the adhesive layer 2a can be gripped, for example in order to be removed by an operator from the holding part 2 or from the goods 200 (FIG. 1). Detachment of the adhesive layer 2a is possible without residues and without damaging the respective adhesive surfaces.
- the adhesive layer of the fastening part 3 (not shown), which at the securing part 1 a can be attached, for example in the lower region of the fastening part 3, also has a grip tab.
- the fuse part 1 is initially in a switch-on state 100, cf. Figure 4. In this switch-on state 100, at least the receiver 6 ( Figure 1) of the fuse part 1 is activated.
- a selection signal is then triggered by the operator using the transmitter 5 shown in FIG. 1, for example in the form of a radio remote control, and transmitted by the transmitter 5 to the receiver 6, which is accommodated in the fastening part 3 of the security part 1 (FIGS. 1 and 3a) ,
- the transmission of the selection signal is identified by the reference symbol 101 in FIG. 4 and places the security part 1 in a connection mode 110.
- the receiver 6 stores the selection signal sent by the transmitter 5 in a memory, as a result of which the security part 1 is assigned to the transmitter 5 or its selection signal becomes.
- the receiver 6 of the safety part 1 is deactivated in step 111, in particular switched off, so that the energy consumption of the safety part 1 compared to the switched-on state. 100 is reduced.
- the deactivated state can be a so-called sleep mode, for example, in which only certain components of the receiver 6 are still switched on, but otherwise the majority of the components are switched off.
- the holding part 2 of the securing part 1 are fastened by the operator to the goods 200 and the fastening part 3 to the fastening point.
- the measuring loops located in the adhesive layers of the holding part 2 and the fastening part 3 are closed and the securing part 1 changes to a monitoring state 130 through the state transition 113.
- the securing part 1 changes directly from the connection mode 110 to the monitoring state 130, which also takes place via the state transition 113.
- the security part 1 can switch from the connection mode 110 directly to an alarm state 120 in step 112. This is the case if, after the connection mode 110 has been reached, the measuring loops are not closed within a predeterminable waiting time. This prevents the safety part 1 from being put into the switch-on state 100 and then into the connection mode 110 by the operator, but then the measuring loop is no longer accidentally closed by the operator, so that the state transition 113 to the monitoring state 130 and thus a Monitoring of goods 200 does not take place.
- the remaining waiting time before the security part 1 changes to the alarm state 120 modulates an operating signal of the light-emitting diode 7a and / or the piezo-acoustic transducer 7b, so that an operator can estimate how much time remains before the security part 1 changes to the alarm state 120 .
- the modulation includes, for example, a change in the intensity or the frequency of the operating signal. It is also possible to indicate the connection mode 110, for example by means of a specific, constant flashing sequence of the light-emitting diode 7a.
- the security part 1 can change from the monitoring state 130 to the alarm state 120. This is usually the case if one of the measuring loops or both measuring loops within one
- the security part 1 initially remains in the alarm state 120.
- the receiver 6 of the security part 1 is activated in particular immediately after the transition to the alarm state 120, as is indicated by step 121, cf. Figure 4, so that the security part 1 is ready to receive in the alarm state 120.
- the alarm state 120 there is an optical and / or acoustic alarm with the aid of the light-emitting diode 7a and / or the piezo-acoustic transducer 7b.
- a first possibility to end the alarm state 120 is for the operator to use the transmitter 5 (FIG. 1) to again send the selection signal to the receiver 6 of the safety part 1 with which the safety part 1 switches from the switch-on state 100 already described to the connection mode 110 has been moved.
- This selection signal is stored in the receiver 6, as explained.
- the fuse part 1 changes to a further state 180 according to reference numeral 122 (FIG. 4), which is not explained in more detail and is shown in FIG. 4 as a representative of other possible operating states of the safety part , In state 180 there is no longer an alarm. A transition from a state 180 to a switch-off state 190 is possible. Further state transitions from state 180 to the other operating states are shown in FIG Figure 4 not shown.
- the operating states mentioned can represent, for example, further functions of the securing part 1 and are not described here, since they are not important for the securing method according to the invention.
- the security part 1 remains in the alarm state 120. This means that only the operator who ends the transmitter 5 can end the alarm state 120 with the correct selection signal. This prevents an unintentional or even impermissible ending of the alarm state 120 by third parties.
- a second possibility of ending the alarm state 120 is to remove the power supply from the security part 1 in step 123, so that the security part 1 changes to the shutdown state 190. In the shutdown state 190, there is no longer an alarm.
- the security part 1 is designed such that it is not possible to remove the power supply to the security part 1 without triggering an alarm, for example by interrupting the measuring loops of the security part 1. This ensures that an inadmissible Removing the power supply of the security parts 1, for example in the event of an attempted theft, always leads to an alarm.
- the fuse part 1 can be put into the shutdown state 190 by removing the energy supply from each of the described states 100, 110, 120, 130, 180. From the shutdown state 190, the fuse part 1 by switching on 191 the power supply also in the switch-on state 100 again.
- step 102 it is particularly expedient, for example in step 102, to first set the fuse part 1 to the switch-off state 190 and then to the switch-on state 100 via step 191.
- the selection signal stored in the memory of the security part 1 is deleted, so that the security part 1 can again receive and store a selection signal from a transmitter.
- the switch-off state 190 is reached, the previously received selection signal is lost because it is stored in a volatile memory of the receiver, the memory content of which is retained only with a permanent energy supply. In this way, another selection signal can be very easily assigned to the fuse part 1.
- the transmitter 5 it is also possible for the transmitter 5 to transmit a coded selection signal in order to make it more difficult to misuse the device according to the invention. In order to be able to provide further transmitters 5 with the same selection signal, it is possible in one embodiment of the invention to transmit a selection signal from one transmitter 5 to another transmitter 5.
- An important advantage of the invention is that the receiver 6 of the security part 1 is deactivated in step 111 when the connection mode 110 is reached 101. This can preferably be a sleep mode. As a result, the power consumption of the fuse part 1 is reduced and the battery or energy supply is protected.
- the deactivation 111 of the receiver 6 according to the invention brings with it another significant advantage, which is particularly important when using a single transmitter 5 with a plurality of security parts 1.
- First of all analogous to the operation with only one fuse part 1, it is possible to assign a plurality of fuse parts 1 as a group to the transmitter 5, which is even possible for all fuse parts 1 at the same time by sending the selection signal of the transmitter 5, provided that all fuse parts 1 are in the reception area of transmitter 5. Thereafter, all security parts 1 can be transferred to the monitoring state 130 (FIG. 4).
- the security part 1 in the alarm state 120 can be transmitted to the transmitter 5 by sending the selection signal again further state 180 are transferred to turn off the alarm. It is very advantageous here that only the receiver 6 of the security part 1 affected by the theft attempt is active, while the receivers 6 of the security parts 1 still in the monitoring state 130 are deactivated. This eliminates the need known from conventional security devices to first recognize and select the security part 1 which is in the alarm state 120 before it can be switched to the state 180 by resending the selection signal.
- the selection of the security part 1 ′′ affected by the attempted theft from the plurality of security parts 1 takes place, as it were, automatically or implicitly in that only its receiver 6 is activated, ie is ready to receive.
- a specific selection signal is transmitted from the transmitter 5 to the receiver 6 provided in the fuse part 1 in order to assign the fuse part 1 to the transmitter 5 and to put the fuse part 1 into the connection mode 110.
- the receiver 6 is then deactivated in the connection mode 110.
- the deactivation 111 By deactivating 111 the receiver 6, the energy consumption of the security part 1 is reduced. In addition, the deactivation 111 prevents the securing part 1 from inadvertently receiving further selection signals.
- the receiver 6 of the security part 1 is reactivated in order to allow the reception of the specific selection signal again.
- the alarm state 120 can then be ended with such a selection signal.
- the securing part 1b has no roll-up device 9 (cf. FIG. 3a) for the ribbon cable 4. Rather, the housing of the fastening part 3 of the securing part 1b has an opening for the connecting means 4 designed as a ribbon cable, which connect the fastening part 3 to the holding part 2.
- the further structure of the securing part 1b is identical to the structure of the securing part la.
- the securing parts 1 a and 1 b each have on their fastening parts 3 an unspecified hanging and / or latching device and / or a coupling with the aid of a magnet for receiving or holding the holding part 2, in or to which the holding part 2 is connected Presentation and storage purposes can be attached or attached.
- This state of affairs is indicated by the fact that the securing parts 1 a and 1 b are each shown in FIG. 2 with the holding part 2 attached.
- the securing part lc has no hanging and latching device for receiving the holding part. Nevertheless, it also has a holding part, which is not shown.
- the holding part of the securing part 1c (FIG. 3c) is connected to the fastening part 3 of the securing part 1c via the connecting means 4 designed as a ribbon cable. Since the holding part of the securing part 1c cannot be hooked into the fastening part 3, it is particularly well suited for securing large goods 200 which, due to their weight or their dimensions, cannot be attached to the fastening part 3 anyway, but e.g. must be placed on a shelf.
- the internal structure, in particular of the fastening parts varies, however a translucent housing to increase the signal effect of an optical signal emitted by the light-emitting diode 7a and sound outlet openings in the area of the piezo-acoustic transducer 7b are provided in each of the securing parts la, lb, lc.

- securing parts 1 each having at least one holding part 2 and possibly also a fastening part 3.
- the goods to be secured 200 are connected to the holding part 2 in the manner described by means of an appropriately designed, double-sided adhesive tape (see German utility model DE 202 13 672.8).
- the holding parts 2 of FIG. 5 are not connected to the associated fastening part via connecting means 4, but instead a connecting cable 4 is provided instead, via which each of the holding parts 2 is connected to a central unit 10.
- a fastening part 3 does not necessarily have to be assigned to each holding part 2, but that a holding part 2 can also be provided without an associated fastening part 3.
- the fastening part 3 - if present - only serves to fasten the holding part 2, but not to accommodate components for alarm detection and / or alarming.
- the central unit 10 has a plurality of plug sockets 12 into which the connecting cables 4 can be inserted by the holding parts 2 by means of corresponding plugs (not shown). Each socket 12 represents a channel of the central unit 10. Furthermore, the central unit 10 has display means, in particular light-emitting diodes 11, a separate light-emitting diode 11 being assigned to each channel of the central unit 10. The individual channels Components associated with the central unit 10 are present several times in accordance with the number of channels.
- the central unit 10 has a receiver 6, optical and / or acoustic alarm means 7a, 7b and a battery 8. These components are only present and correspond, for example, to the components of the same name in FIG. 1. Furthermore, according to FIG. 5, there is a transmitter 5 which corresponds to the transmitter 5 in FIG.
- the switch-on state 100 is reached.
- the receiver 6 in the central unit 10 is activated.
- the central unit 10 is transferred to the connection mode 110 by transmitting the selection signal from the transmitter 5 to the receiver 6.
- the receiver 6 of the central unit 6 is deactivated (step 111).
- the majority of the fuse parts 1 can be connected to the central unit 10 via the connecting lines 4.
- a maximum waiting time can be specified, within which at least one channel of the central unit 10 must be connected to a security part 1.
- the central unit 10 then changes to the monitoring state 130.
- alarm state 120 an alarm is given via the optical and / or acoustic ones Alerting means 7a, 7b.
- the receiver 6 of the central unit 10 is activated, so that the alarming can be switched off by retransmitting the selection signal from the transmitter 5 to the receiver 6 and the state 180 can be entered.
- the overall security method of FIG. 4 in FIG. 5 is related to the central unit 10.
- the alarming in the alarm state 120 therefore relates to the central unit 10 in FIG. 5, but not to a specific security part of the plurality of security parts 1 which are connected to the central unit 10. Which of the security parts 1 connected to the central unit 10 has actually triggered the alarm can only be determined from the light-emitting diodes 11 assigned to the individual channels.
- the central unit 10 contains a further circuit or the like, by means of which the light-emitting diode 11 is used for display an alarm is switched on, in the associated security part 1 of which an alarm-triggering process (separation of the goods 200 from the holding part and / or interruption of the connecting cable 4) has taken place.
- the arrangement according to FIG. 5 can preferably be used if a plurality of central units 10 are present, to which in turn a plurality of security parts 1 are connected.
- the plurality of central units 10 can be used by different operators through different selection signals.
- Several central units 10 can be assigned to a single operator as a group. If an alarm is triggered by one of the plurality of security parts 1, only the operator who is responsible for the associated central unit 10 to which the alarm triggering safety part 1 is connected. The operator can then use the light-emitting diodes 11 to recognize exactly which of the security parts 1 connected to the central unit 10 has triggered the alarm.
