About the Product
Product Description
The ZBAMB9010-IPS deactivation controller
connects to a Sensormatic® low inductance
deactivation pad or coil to deactivate Ultra•Strip®
low energy security labels.
A Status LED on the deactivator is solid green
when power is applied.
About this Guide
This guide only covers hardware installation. For
setup information, see the setup guide for the
deactivation pad or coil being connected.

ZBAMB5274H, ZBAMB5274V Coils*
Deactivation pads and coils used with
the controller:
Note: This controller has been approved for use
with high inductance ScanMax Pro deactivation
pads, although not presently offered.
High Inductance Pads (ScanMax Pro)
Scanner Integrated High Inductance Coils
Internal features:
Automatic deactivation coil detection
Auto and re-synchronization
Adjustments to transmit and deactivation fields
Status LED for power on, communication
activity, and basic diagnostics.
EAS Label type (SR/DR).
Front panel features:
a. Tie wrap slot. A tie wrap helps keep the power
cord from being accidentally disconnected from
the controller.
Low Inductance Pads / Coils
* Scanner integrated.
b. Power: AC power cord connects here.
c. RS-485 (Network) ports: Two 8-position
modular jacks provide RS-485 communication
between Sensormatic devices and a POS
system.
d. Status LED: Indicates deactivation status.
Status indications are mentioned in the setup
guides for the controller, pads, and coils.
e. Service port: This 4-position modular jack
provides RS-232 communication to a laptop
computer for advanced setup and diagnostics.
f. Scanner port: This 8-position modular jack
allows a POS system, such as a barcode
scanner, to control deactivation and also
provides RS-232 communication if required.
These ports accept various control voltages
(see specs on page 6).
g. Remote port: This 6-position RJ-11 modular
jack supports the ZPSTP-RA Remote Alarm
Module. Deactivation can be disabled on this
port.
h. Pad or coil cable port: The EEPROM cable
from the deactivation pad or coil plugs into this
port. The preprogrammed EEPROM enables
the controller to automatically identify the pad or
coil and adjust its parameters accordingly. If the
EEPROM is not programmed, controller settings
default to the PowerPad Pro deactivation pad.

INSTALLATION GUIDE
2 OF 7
Preliminary
Setup
A Deactivation Universal Configurator is used to
setup the controller. This configurator:
Installs on a laptop computer that plugs into the
SERVICE port.
Requires Microsoft® Windows® XP operating
software on the laptop.
Auto Detection
Auto detection enables the controller to adjust to
the deactivation pad or coil in use.
Synchronization
Auto synchronization. Upon power up, the
controller automatically syncs its transmission to
other nearby EAS systems, after which auto sync
is disabled.
Resynchronization. Enabled using the software
configurator, resynchronization enables the user to
manually force the controller to resync its
transmission to other nearby EAS systems.
Networking
A network port provides the ability to enable an
external Sensormatic device such as an LDM II to
send data to a store’s POS network using the RS485 port for the purpose of remote diagnostics or
data mining. The external device must be
programmed with special software.
Wired synchronization. The Universal Sync
standard (wired sync) is supported on the
NETWORK port as either transmit or receive
mode, and is set up in the software configurator.
POS Integration
A dedicated scanner port enables POS integration.
POS devices such as barcode scanners can
control deactivation when connected to the
scanner port.
POS devices must be programmed with special
software.
Voltage specifications are on page 6.
