EAS Tag Deactivation Range

Antenna Precaution

The integrated EAS antenna is built into the stand/base of the imager. Do not enclose or rest the imager’s base in close proximity to dense metal. The metal may interfere with the antenna decreasing the expected deactivation range.

Tag Storage Precaution

Do not store tags within 45.7 cm [18.0″] of the MS7580. Tags stored closer than

45.7cm [18.0″] may be unintentionally deactivated. The precautionary area includes storage areas located under the MS7580.

Deactivation Range

Proper tag deactivation requires the entire tag to pass through the expected tag deactivation range indicated in figures 27 (below) and 28 (on page 45).
