DATA CAPTURE 2 - 7
Electronic Article Surveillance (EAS)
The scanner includes an integrated Electronic Article Surveillance (EAS) antenna. The scanner and EAS
system can operate independently of each other. The deactivation range is mapped suitable to the scanning
range, so both can be accomplished almost simultaneously.
A pair of EAS leads in the back of the DS7708 allow the EAS deactivation antenna to be connected to the
Checkpo
int EAS system at the other end.
Installing
Checkpoint EAS Model Compatibility
The DS7708 is intended for use with Checkpoint CP-VII, CP-IX, and CP-XI systems. It does not support CP-IV
and other low-power receiver-based EAS deactivation systems.
Considerations
The Checkpoint CP-VII system generates a periodic burst of electromagnetic energy that deactivates EAS tags
brought near the scanner. To avoid interference with the scanner’s operation, take the following precautions
when installing the EAS system:
•
Position the EAS antenna box as far as possible from the scanner (at least 6 in. / 15.24 cm.)
•
Position the EAS antenna, EAS antenna box, EAS control cable, and EAS controller box as far as
possible from the scanner’s host and power cables.
Checkpoint Contact Information
Contact your local Checkpoint representative to install the EAS cable to the Checkpoint Deactivation System.
