Thanks for your choosing EAS system series products of “hongtaian” at first.
We do hope it can provide the convenience and efficiency for your work and
management when you use our advanced EAS system.
The EAS of “hongtaian”, which is designed and produced specially according
to more and more serious phenomenon of shoplifting today in supermarket and
bookstores, etc., it will prevent the commodity from being stolen and increase
your sales, because the shopper also feel free shopping space since you have
installed the EAS.

The EAS of “hongtaian”, like as the other same products, is not the only
standard to judge commodity stolen or not. It can only be regarded as a
kind of the best electronic Anti shoplifting tool and reduce the stolen
commodity.

Here we write the user’s Guide in order to help you use it more conveniently.
As you know, whether EAS is fully used depends on how to install and adjust it.
This User’s Guide has six parts: basic working principle & use illustration、
installation、adjustment、system maintenance& common trouble, etc.

You should read this User’s Guide carefully and make training plan for
clerk according to the system and supermarket character.

Chapter 1：Basic working principal

1.1 RF EAS basic working principle

The basic working principle of Radio Frequency EAS System is: transmitter
sends out the swept-band, there will be a scan area between the transmitter
and receiver, and then the receiver receives it. Based on the principle of
electromagnetic wave resonance to search the labels in special frequency
range. It will be alert if any effectual labels exist in the range.
“hongtaian” Electronic Article Surveillance system would give you the solution
for shoplifting. The effectual labels are sticked to the commodity and the
sensors are installed in passage or gate, the label will be lapse by deactivator
or detacher. The receiver will alarm when the non-payment and unchained
commodity goes through the sensors.

1.2 EAS configuration

Electronic Article Surveillance System is consisted with
Sensor(transmitter、receiver & special power supply), electronic labels
(soft label and hard tags), instrument for
deactivating(Deactivator/detacher).

1.2.1 Sensor

There will be a scan area between transmitter and receiver, it will scan
the commodity passing through the sensors, and alert if the label with
the commodity undetached.

1.2.2 ELECTRONIC LABELS

There are two kinds of electronic labels:
RF Soft Labels: used for one time and can be attached to all kinds of
nonmetal commodity.
Hard Tags: repetition used and can be attached to clothes and bags and
shoes.

1.2.3 Instruments for deactivating

A. Deactivator: deactivate over 15cm high. The 8.2MHz RF paper labels is
deactivated when it is passed through the deactivating area. That is
contactless deactivation.
B. Detacher: Can detach the hard tags from commodity quickly, safely and
conveniently.

Installation notice points

（9） There shouldn’t have strong disturbance resource around EAS sensor,

especially 7.3~8.7MHz disturbance signal, or the system can’t work
normally

(10) Please regulate the surrounding electronic equipment, which will cause

disturbance, such as low quality energy saving light

(11) When existing many TX antennas, only permit one TX as Master, the other

can be set as slaver, the Master and Slaver can be connected with

（1） EAS sensor must be upright with installation ground
（2） Prohibit putting label and tag to the 30cm surrounding of power supply

cable and synchronization cable

（3） It is unfit to pile up a lot of metal things such as handcraft, metal door

surround the EAS sensor，metal wall reinforcements, goods shelves,
metal showcases, hand purchasing carts, etc.

（4） EAS sensor must be kept away from these things at least 1.5 meters,

such as POS system, the money machines, ID devices for credit cards,
telephones, computers, data cables, neon lamps, air conditioners,
heaters, etc. and deactivator

（5） EAS sensor should keep 30cm distance away form metal counterpoint
（6） The power supply wire must be used independently and fix hardly,

prohibit using bad quality plug

（7） When using linearity power supply, the linearity power supply must keep

away from switch power supply, or it will cause disturbance

（8） Power supply should use special line independently, don’t share a

power supply line together with light and high-power machine.

synchronization wire;

(12) It will cause false alarm under strong electromagnetic disturbance, such

as light from metal bounce, switch on light and so on, when disturbance
eliminated, the system will return to normal.

Ⅲ Environmental Conditions

1、Mounting position of EAS detector

EAS detector cannot be set up in the distance of 0.5m from a metal
door or 1m from any metal objects inducing the metal wall reinforcements,
goods shelves, metal showcases, hand purchasing carts, etc. It is also
not allowed to mount this detector in 2m nearby the money machines, ID
devices for credit cards, telephones, computers, data cables, neon lamps,
air conditioners, heaters, etc.
2、To ensure the EAS operation reliability, at first it is necessary to
detect the interference sources and set the system far away from these
sources if they are difficult to be removed. Generally, there are two kinds
of interference: the first is active in nature such as the various electric
sparks, motors, blowers and fire due to improper contact, or interferences
caused by serious noises of power source; the second is passive in nature
such as the conduct rolls, pos machine on money acceptance desk, different
