Patent ID: 7046149

Claim:
A system comprising at least one theft security system including at least one transceiver device disposed adjacent at least one passage for detecting antitheft labels passing through the passage, at least one central control device and at least one communication device, each theft security system being provided with an identification code with which each theft security system is identifiable, a plurality of local control devices with each local control device being connected via one of the communication devices to one of the theft security systems adjacent the local control device, each communication device being arranged for real-time transmission of real-time information about detected antitheft labels for which an alarm is generated from the theft security systems to the adjacent local control device, each local control device being arranged for real-time processing of the real-time received real-time information, the central control device being arranged for further processing real-time information about detected antitheft labels coming from the local control device so that theft security system real-time information is obtained about a number of detected antitheft labels, the central control device including an information representing unit for making known real-time the information about the number of detected antitheft labels, and when the number of detected antitheft labels per unit time exceeds a predetermined threshold value.
