About the Deactivator

The STP Deactivator (Figure 1) reliably deactivates
Sensormatic UltraStrip II and Ultrastrip III security
labels during the bar-code scanning process when:

• Installed immediately downstream from
the bar-code scanner.

• UltraStrip II and III security labels are properly
applied to items

• Labeled items are moved properly across the
antenna on their way to the bag well or bagging
station.

The deactivator consists of a hidden power pack, a
countertop antenna with interconnect cable.

• ZBSTP-PK-1 power pack controls antenna
operation. At the rear of the pack is an ac
receptacle for an 3m (10') power cord. In front
is a power on LED; connections for the
interconnect cable, an optional remote LED
board or remote indicator module (see options),
a laptop configurator, POS integration, and
RS485 port; and DIP switches (SW1) for phase
and sensitivity adjustments. A bracket enables
the pack to attach to the underside of a
countertop.

• ZBSTP-PP Power Pad antenna generates a
15cm (6") (???-to be verified) high by 20cm (8")
wide magnetic field above its surface to detect
and deactivate UltraStrip II security labels.

The antenna can be placed on the countertop, or

using various brackets, mounted flush with the
countertop, under the countertop, or when
counter space is not available, over or on the
side of the bagwell.

The attached 2.5m (8') interconnect cable carries

the label signal to the pack and the deactivate
pulse to the antenna.

Magnetic Media Safe Mode

The magnetic field can be reduced before passing
labeled magnetic media over the antenna, thus
protecting the media from the deactivation field.
This can be done manually using an optional
footswitch. Status LEDs do not indicate when the
field is reduced.

CAUTION: The antenna cannot deactivate through

metal. Do not place the antenna on, under, or
near ferrous metal or cold-rolled steel.

Optional status LEDs on the antenna indicate

power on (green), security label deactivation
(orange), and errors (red). An adjustable audio
tone provides additional feedback that
deactivation occurred. A second cable carries
deactivator status signals to the LEDs in the
antenna, or to a remote alarm, if used.

Options

The following options can be ordered:

ZBSTP-PK-B power pack mounting bracket
(Figure 2) enables the power pack to attach to the

underside of a countertop.

Figure 2. Power pack mounting bracket

ZBSTP-PP-IB indicator board (Figure 3) plugs

into the bottom of the antenna to provide an
audio/visual indication of operation. LEDs are
visible through the top of the antenna. A cable
connects the board to the power pack.

Antenna mounting brackets (Figure 5) are used
to mount the antenna flush with the countertop,
under the countertop, or when counter space is not
available, over or on the side of the bagwell.
These brackets are as follows:

− ZBSTP-PP-B1 flush mount tray

− ZBSTP-PP-B2 under counter bracket

− ZBSTP-PP-B3 cantilever bracket (for bagwell)

− ZBSTP-PP-B4 flip bracket (for bagwell)

Note: Countertop mounting requires no
additional bracketry.

Remote Alarm Module (Figure 4) replaces the

indicator board to position status LEDs closer to
the operator. A cable connects the module to the
power pack.
