About the Product
The AMS-9040 controller is part of a
four-channel EAS detector used to detect EAS
tags/labels at store exit(s). The controller:
- Supports transceiver (Tx/Rx) antennas, auxiliary
receiver antennas, and noise coils in any
combination up to the maximum specified.
- Supports controller-assisted tuning of Digital AM
antennas.
- Can power and control up to two remote alarms.
Also supports externally powered alarm devices
and beacon lamps, an alarm management
device, and a Sensormatic Sync Link wireless
sync device.
- Has four relays used to trigger externallypowered alarm devices.
- Supports RS485 networking.
- Has connections for hardwired sync and
transmit inhibit functions.
- Can be placed on a shelf or mounted to a wall.
- Consists of an integral cable tray/mounting
bracket assembly and a controller housing that
attaches to it. Two captive ¼-turn fasteners in
the tray secure it to the controller.
- Nineteen knockouts in the cable tray support
exposed cables or cables in conduit. There are
designated knockouts for Class 2 wiring from
low voltage devices, Class 2 “wet” wiring from
an alarm management device, and Class 3
wiring from a transmit antenna.
- Three knockouts in the tray support an exposed
ac cable or the cable in conduit. A U-shaped
opening in the side of the tray allows access for
a power cord, if used instead of the ac cable.

Operation
The controller deters theft by activating an alarm
when it detects the unique response of an active
Ultra•Max hard plastic tag or disposable label.
To detect a tag, the antenna(s) connected to the
controller emit a magnetic field close to the
tag/label’s natural frequency causing it to vibrate or
“ring” at the frequency of the field. When the field is
removed, energy in the tag/label dissipates causing
an exponential ring down.
The controller processes signal inputs picked up by
the antennas to determine if they are indicative of
ring down. If they are, then the controller activates
an alarm.
Audible and visual indicators located on top of
each antenna indicate an active tag/label is
between the antennas. Alternately, the controller
can trigger a remote alarm module, or double-pole
double-throw relay, one for each antenna. The
controller can also trigger externally powered
devices such as a security camera.
- Antenna coils can be set to aiding or figure-8.
Maximum operating current is as follows for
each coil configuration:
- Wireless ac synchronization (Sync Link)
connection (1)
- Service connection (1).
* Only certain inputs support noise coils.
Transceiver (Tx/Rx) Antenna and
Antenna Communication Connections
Transceiver antenna connectors and antenna
communication connectors support the following
transceiver antennas and families:
- Digital Door-Max*
- Digital Floor-Max*
- Digital Pro-Max*
- Digital Euro Pro-Max*
- Ultra•Loop
* Controller-assisted tuning applies. See page 7.
Transceiver connectors (P1, P24, P4, P35). Four
connectors support transceiver antennas
designated A, B, C, and D.
- Tx/Rx antenna A connects to connector P1.
- Tx/Rx antenna B connects to connector P24.
- Tx/Rx antenna C connects to connector P4.
- Tx/Rx antenna D connects to connector P35.
Antenna communication connectors (P5, P25,
P6, P36). Four connectors support controller-
assisted tuning of digital antennas.
- Com for antenna A connects to connector P5.
- Com for antenna B connects to connector P25.
- Com for antenna C connects to connector P6.
- Com for antenna D connects to connector P36.
General-Purpose Connections
(P27, P29, P31, P33)
Four connectors accept auxiliary receive antennas
such as Rangers, Digital Pro-Max, Sky•Max, and
Satellite receivers, and/or noise coils up to the
maximum allowed.
- These connectors default to Rx function with no
auto detection or support for noise canceling
coil support.
- To support noise cancellation, use the service
configurator to set these connectors to noise
canceling mode. Adjustments to default settings
must be saved in the controller for use on the
next power cycle or system reset.
Auxiliary receive antennas or noise coils connected
to the general-purpose inputs are designated A, B,
C, and D.
- Antenna/Coil A connects to connector P27.
- Antenna/Coil B connects to connector P29.
- Antenna/Coil C connects to connector P31.
- Antenna/Coil D connects to connector P33.
IMPORTANT! Each general-purpose connector
has a Coil 1 input and a Coil 2 input. Noise coils
can only connect to the Coil 1 input.
More about noise coils:
- A noise coil is used to cancel specific noise
interfering with detector operation.
- Only “Coil 1’ of a receive antenna can be used
as a noise coil.
- To accept a noise coil, the Coil 1 part of each
general-purpose input must be reconfigured to
noise canceling mode using the service
configurator.
- By moving a noise coil around while monitoring
power levels on the service configurator, field
personnel find the location where noise
cancellation is best. This is where the coil is
likely to be installed.
- The location for noise coil installation must be
practical as well as yield satisfactory results.

Remote Alarm Connections (P7)
This connector can power and control up to two
remote alarms, such as a ZC30 or ZC35.
Beacon Lamp Connections (P10)
This connector can power and control up to two
beacon lamps, supplying up to 12V at 1A for each
lamp.
Relay Connections (P9, P12)
The controller has four double pole double throw
(DPDT) relays, each programmed independently.
These relays are used to trigger devices such as
externally powered remote alarms and beacon
lamps, time lapse VCRs, and security cameras,
one device per detection zone.
Each relay requires three wires and a shield. Cable
shields share one pin on the connector.
Alarm Management and RS485
Connections (P41, P8)
Wireless AC Sync Connection
(On Controller)
Protected by a cover plate, this connector receives
a cable from a Sync Link device which, when
connected, is automatically used as the timing
reference for system functions. See “Automatic AC
Line Synchronization” on page 7. Also, see
Appendix A.
RS232 Service Connection
(On Controller)
Protected by a cover plate, this RJ22 connector
receives the cable from a modem or laptop
computer used to communicate with the controller.
Ped (Tx) Inhibit Connection (P26)
This connector has a maximum of four Tx Inhibit
pins, each configurable using the service
configurator. Each pin, when grounded, turns off a
specified transmitter.
“Ultra” connector P41 powers a Sensormatic alarm
management device. Connector P8 supports
RS485 communication to the device.
Wired Tx Sync Connection (P2)
This connector is used to wire two AMS-9040
controllers together to synchronize them so they do
not interfere with each other.
Note: The controller also provides for a slower
sequencer level synchronization to allow two
Digital Floor-Max antennas to be placed next to
each other when driven by different controllers.
