Security system using sensors

摘要

In a security system using sensors that includes clock-equipped surveillance terminals for sending security data to a surveillance center, one surveillance terminal uses a power supply line to send a time calibration signal to the other surveillance terminals at appropriate times, the surveillance terminals use the signal to eliminate time error among their clocks, the other surveillance terminal use the power supply line to send to the one surveillance terminal time-stamped data, and the one surveillance terminal discriminates operating states of the other surveillance terminals by comparing the receive time and send time of time-stamped data.
