Sensormatic Deactivation System
The Sensormatic controller includes a custom vertical and horizontal, high inductance antenna. The horizontal antenna is installed below the Top Plate, while the vertical antenna is installed behind the Vertical Scan Window. The antenna is affixed to the scanner with screws.
Sensormatic EAS should always be enabled. There is no synchronization with a bar code read in this mode.
Sensormatic EAS Hard Tags
The detection of hard tags alerts users with audible Geiger counter beeps. Environments with a mix of hard and soft tags emit a unique user alert (soft/hard tag beep).
The following image is an example of a Sensormatic EAS hard tag.
Sensormatic EAS Soft Tags (Labels)
Deactivation of soft tags alerts users with audible Geiger counter beeps. Deactivation of soft tags synchronized with a bar code scan alerts users with audible Geiger counter beeps. Soft tags can be disabled, and they can also be reset using a Sensormatic tag re‑setter.
The following image is an example of a Sensormatic EAS soft tag.
