Abstract: A method of controlling a security assembly comprising a frame member and at least one door is disclosed. The method comprises the step of when a door is required to be opened, determining whether the door has been open within a predetermined past time period, such as the past hour. If the door has not been open the predetermined past time period, the door is allowed to be opened. However, if the door has been open during the predetermined past time period, the door is not allowed to be opened.

Abstract: A security assembly comprising a frame member 12 and a plurality of doors 14 is mountable inside the housing 4 of an ATM or safe etc. Each door 14 can be opened and closed independently of the other doors. Referring to FIGS. 4 and 5, each door 14 is attached to the frame member 12 by a hinge 16. A barrier member 18, which acts to lock the door 14, is mounted to the door 14 by two pivoting brackets 20. When in the locked condition, the barrier members 18 extend substantially along the whole length of the edge of the door to prevent access through the boundaries between the doors and the frame. A barrier member actuator in the form of a plurality of independently moveable locking blades 22 is slidably mounted to the frame 12.

Abstract: A method of transmitting wireless messages in a communications system (201) having a plurality of transceiver units (203) for receiving and onwardly transmitting wireless messages is disclosed. In a first mode of the system, messages are transmitted from a first transmitter to a target receiver by sequential transmission via at least one transceiver unit (203). In a second mode, a wireless message containing information identifying a target receiver is transmitted from a first transmitter. The target receiver transmits an acknowledgement signal in response to receipt of the message, and at least one of the transceiver unit (203) transmits the message if that unit does not detect within a predetermined period the acknowledgement signal or transmission of the message by a predetermined other transceiver unit (203).

Abstract: A signal processing apparatus (1) comprises an analogue RF receiver (2) which has a local oscillator (7). The analogue receiver (2) receives in use a first electrical signal from antenna (4) at a carrier frequency, which signal is modulated by a digitised modulating signal to provide a second electrical signal having an amplitude representing an instantaneous logic level of the digitised modulating signal. The apparatus further comprises a digital processor (13) for processing the second electrical signal and providing an output signal in response thereto. The digital processor is controlled in use by clock signals provided in response to actuation of a local oscillator of the analogue receiver.
