Deactivator Components and Connections As shown in Figure 1, the deactivator consists of a detect/deactivator antenna pad, power and control box. The cables used and connections are shown in the following diagram. The antenna pad can be installed flush to the counter with the flush mount kit. Antenna Always match the antenna type (read the label on the plastic housing) with control box input voltage type before connecting them; make sure they are matched.
Socket Connections Notice To secure good contact and proper connections from the antenna pad to control box, please make sure the cable sockets are firmly connected and the pins are aligned correctly.
Power Cord Notices North American Power Supply Cords This equipment is supplied with an external power line at one end and a molded receptacle terminal block at the other end. Conductors are color coded white (neutral), black (line) and green or green/yellow (ground). Operation of this equipment at voltages exceeding 130 vac will require power supply cords that comply with NEMA configurations.

CARE IN OPERATION Fuse replacement Extend fuse (time-delay fuse) 5mmx20mm 6.3A Equipment shall be electrically disconnected from the branch-circuit supply when replacing the fuse. WARNING – TO REDUCE THE RISK OF DAMAGE. REPLACE ONLY WITH SAME TYPE AND RATING OF FUSE.
QUICK START INSTRUCTIONS General Setup and Use Equipment must be electrically disconnected from the power supply before connecting the antenna with the control box. Connect deactivation antenna to the control box as noted in the section named “Deactivator Components and Connections”. Make sure the connectors are firmly attached to the sockets. When all connections are ready, connect power and toggle the power switch. The power LED will come on to indicate the unit is active.
Recorded Media Products Deactivation Low Power Deactivation is strongly recommended for magnetic media products such as pre-recorded audio tapes, video tapes, floppy disks, etc. Use the remote control to set StealthPad to low power deactivation mode. Instructions: 1. Access to Programming Mode • Press [PSW] • Input password (default is 68 unless previously changed). • Press [CON] to enter programming mode. 2.

TUNING PROCEDURES & TIPS There are two main potential problems that will affect StealthPad’s functioning and performance. Problem #1 The deactivator’s detection range does not match the deactivation range. If the detection range is too short (low sensitivity for the receiver), it will decrease the system’s deactivation distance. But if the detection range is bigger than the deactivation range, it will cause false deactivation.
REMOTE CONTROL PROGRAMMING LAN C OTE RE M R ONT OL FAST PAD TM CONTROL BOX CONTROL BOX - SIDE VIEW 1 LAN 1 6 REMOTE CONTROL Point the IR Remote Control to the Interface Window at one side of the Control Box to operate the infrared communicator. The panel normally displays the alarm count when not receiving any control signals from remote control. The alarm count is displayed as in the above picture – total count is 116 in this example.
Press [PSW] button to activate the remote control, and then enter the password (factory default is 68). 0 LAN REMOTE CONTROL Input the number 68 (or the new password if you have changed it). Press [CON] to instruct the Control Box to accept the password. 0 LAN 6 8 REMOTE CONTROL Note: Entering the wrong password input will disable the panel from further instructions. Exit and re-press PSW to enter the correct password (see the picture below).
When the correct password is verified, the LEDs will display as per the following picture and wait for configuration type input. LAN REMOTE CONTROL Key ID “B” - Sync Adjustment (range: 0-99; increment: 1) This adjustment sets the time from zero crossing point to the start point of burst transmission. It is used for eliminating cross talk between different systems. In most cases the default b-1 value will achieve system stability with respect to other AM products.
Under this mode, you can also see the different noise condition at a different phase. If there is a phase problem, other AM systems’ burst transmission will interfere with StealthPad’s receiver, and you will see a large noise indication in D1, D2. LAN 7 REMOTE CONTROL Key ID “D” - Noise Condition Display (Valid parameters: 1,2,3,4 - see configuration table below) The LEDs display the signal level number, with a level range from 0-8.
After confirmation, the panel will display a different signal or noise level from the specific antenna channel. LAN 2 REMOTE CONTROL Noise Condition Display Configuration Table Value Function Description Shut down tag or noise window display. Detection Purpose D1 Tag window display for channel 1. Detect tag by antenna CH1. D2 Tag window display for channel 2. Detect tag by antenna CH2. D3 Average noise window display for channel 1. Monitor long time average noise received by antenna CH1.
Key ID “H” - Minimum Signal Adjustment (valid range: 0-8, increment 1) Lowering this number will increase the label detection sensitivity of the StealthPad, but will also increase the risk of false deactivation. Vice versa, raising it will decrease the sensitivity or detection range to adapt to deactivation range. While there are two antenna channels, StealthPad has only one H value adjustment, and it will apply to both of the antenna channels for minimum signal adjustment. Press [MIN].
Key ID “F” – Low Power Deactivation Settings (default value: 0; valid range: 0-1) Low Power Deactivation is strongly recommended for magnetic media products such as pre-recorded audio tapes, video tapes, floppy disks, etc. Value Action 0 Normal deactivation strength 1 Low power deactivation for media products Press [Tx OFF] Input number for the parameter. Press [CON] to accept the parameter.
Exit Button Press [Exit] to return to Alarm counter display status. Save Button This button will save all current parameters to Flash ROM, so when power is shut down the parameters will be saved. Next time the system reboots it will load all the parameters from Flash ROM. Press [Save]. The LEDs will display as shown below. Input 1 Press [CON] to accept the current parameters.
Important Safeguards and Regulatory Notices Information on the following pages provides important safety guidelines for both Operator and Service Personnel. Specific warnings and cautions will be found throughout the manual where they apply, but may not appear here. Please read and follow the important safety information, noting especially those instructions related to risk of fire, electric shock or injury to persons.
Danger Electrical potential is still applied to some internal components even when the power switch/breaker is in the off position. To prevent electrical shock when working on this equipment, disconnect the AC line cord from the AC source before working on any internal components. A residual voltage may be present immediately after unplugging the system due to slow discharge of large power supply capacitors. Wait 30 seconds to allow capacitors to discharge before working on the system.
To avoid fire hazard, use only components of the specified type, voltage and current rating as referenced in the appropriate parts list. Always refer fuse personnel. replacement to qualified service To avoid explosion, do not operate this equipment in an explosive atmosphere unless it has been specifically certified for such operation. Have qualified personnel perform safety checks after any completed service. Risk of electric shock is present.
attempt to troubleshoot or repair modules that contain SMT components. It assumes no liability for damage caused by unauthorized repairs. This applies to both in- and out-of-warranty products. Power Cord Notices North American Power Supply Cords This equipment is supplied with an external power line at one end and a molded receptacle terminal block at the other end. Conductors are color coded white (neutral), black (line) and green or green/yellow (ground).
