The theft is shown over 90%, the very high proportion among the financial accident and crime. With the locational characteristics of external ATM equipment that is always exposed to the crime, its accident even the theft to steal the ATM itself is not many, but it has been gradually every year. With this social situation, the study is going to suggest the method to react rapidly and minimize the loss of damage by realizing the real time location, applying location tracing monitoring system using Zigbee as a rapid reaction to the theft for external ATM equipment.

INTRODUCTION As the social computerization and automation has been increased and the ATM and credit card has been installed and spread out to simplify the activity for financial activity, the banking activity has been simplified, however the crime related with financial organization has been increased in proportion to the ratio of spread out of automation and devices. Those crimes for the financial organization has been increased gradually from year 2000 to 2003, little bit decreased in 2004,and then increased again from year 2005. In the year of 2007,212,530 of theft and 4,439 of robber cases are happened, and 269,410 of theft and 4,409 of robber cases are happened in year 2010, so that the cases of theft and robber have been increased gradually during past 10 years [1].Among the crime for financial organization, the cases of theft and robber have very high proportion of over 90%. and the crime for the ATM has been increased because the external ATM in the gas station and convenience store has been increased and it is always exposed to the crime. Therefore, this study is going to suggest the method of rapid reaction and minimization of loss by detecting the location of the machine real-time when it has been stolen by applying GPS module in Zigbee in the accident of theft of external ATM machine which is installed in the convenience store and gas station. II. RELATED STUDY 1. ATM (Automated Teller Machine) The first ATM in Korea was installed by Korea Exchange Bank in 1975, and after installation of ATM by Shinhan Bank in 1982, the civilian can use the ATM of various banks with starting of operation of common CD network which is controlled by Korea financial telecommunications & clearings institute [2].The number of installed ATM machine has shown the trend of
