Desensitizer
The desensitizer contains electronics housed beneath the book
cradle on the SelfCheck system that desensitize and re-sensitize
Security Strips. When a book is approved for checkout by the
circulation system, the detection strip in the book is desensitized.
The SelfCheck system is designed to prevent patrons from checking
out more than one item on the same item bar code.
Digital Identification
The SelfCheck™ System Model 7210 has digital identification
capabilities that allow the SelfCheck system to recognize Digital ID™
tags through Radio Frequency Identification (RFID). Digital ID tags
are placed within the library material. Each tag is encoded with item
identification information using 3M™ Digital Identification equipment.
The SelfCheck system uses the information contained on the Digital
ID tag to properly check materials out to the patron. For more
information about RFID technology and Digital ID tags, refer to
www.3M.com/library.
