Abstract
An apparatus for synchronized operation of a plurality of EAS systems. The system includes two or more EAS systems. Each EAS system has a receiver for receiving the same RF synchronization signal sent from a remote source, a transmitter for transmitting a marker exciter pulse and an exciter pulse receiver. The transmitter and exciter pulse receiver of each of the EAS systems are selectively enabled a predetermined time after receiving the RF synchronization signal so that all EAS systems in a localized area can be synchronized with one another.
