Abstract

A remotely monitorable electronic locking device for use with a device including a conductive loop, the remotely monitorable electronic locking device including a locking element arranged to engage at least one end of the conductive loop, whereby disengagement of the locking element and the end of the conductive loop results in a monitorable event and a wireless communicator associated with the locking element operative to provide a remotely monitorable indication of the monitorable event.

Claims

1. A remotely monitorable electronic locking device for use with a device including a conductive loop, said remotely monitorable electronic locking device comprising:

a locking element arranged to engage at least one end of said conductive loop, whereby disengagement of said locking element and said end of said conductive loop results in a monitorable event; and

a wireless communicator associated with said locking element operative to provide a remotely monitorable indication of said monitorable event.

2. A remotely monitorable electronic locking device according to claim 1 and wherein disruption of the integrity of said conductive loop results in a monitorable event.
