Datalogic Scanning 8500 EAS Active State

EAS Active State

Specifies the active state polarity of EAS (Electronic Article Survellance); the inactive state is its opposite polarity. EAS output goes active during the good read of a bar code, allowing the EAS device to deactivate a tag on the product.

To set the EAS Active State:

1.Scan the SWITCH bar code.

2.Scan bar code below representing the desired setting. You’ll need to cover any unused bar codes on this and the facing page to ensure that the scanner reads only the bar code you intend to scan.

3.Complete the programming sequence by scanning the SWITCH bar code.

EAS ACTIVE STATE = ACTIVE LOW

EAS ACTIVE STATE = ACTIVE HIGH
