to set options for that system.
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 barcode, allowing the EAS device to deactivate a tag on the
product.
To set the EAS Active State:
1. Scan the SWITCH barcode.
2. Scan barcode below representing the desired setting. You’ll need
to cover any unused barcodes on this and the facing page to
ensure that the scanner reads only the barcode you intend to scan.
3. Complete the programming sequence by scanning the SWITCH
barcode.
EAS ACTIVE STATE = ACTIVE LOW
EAS ACTIVE STATE = ACTIVE HIGH
