  • Patent number: 8972284
    Abstract: A system for controlling outdoor price signs for fuel products includes a control center. The control center determines a price for a fuel product for a number of fuel stores. The control center receives a variety of data that may have an impact on fuel prices, including competitive data from a neighborhood store. The control center has a number pricing formulas and applies a selected formula to set a fuel price at one of the fuel stores. The price is sent to a store controller. The store controller passes the fuel price information to a point of sale device that updates a pump price and an outdoor controllable sign. The sign includes feedback that it not only received the correct price but that it correctly displays the price and the price is legible.
