Set-Up & Installation

Set-Up & Installation

These setup and installation procedures assume that you have already pre- pared your checkstand to receive the scanner or scanner/scale. If you have not already made the counter cutout and routed power and interface cables, do so now as described in the previous instructions. If your check- stand has been prepared, proceed as follows:

EAS Considerations

When installing a system which includes EAS deactivation, issues to be considered are:

•Placement of the EAS Controller Box. The controller must be located near the scanner, and be within easy connection of an ade- quate power supply.

•The EAS Single-Antenna (installed under the scanner’s top platter) must be situated so that it is “downstream” with regard to the scan- ning window. That is, when items are moved either right-to-left, or left-to-right over the scan window, the EAS Antenna must be posi- tioned AFTER the scan window for correct operation. See Figure 2- 17.

EAS Dual Antenna systems require no special positioning, since the two antennas envelope both sides of the scanner.
