TAD
The TAD (Tag Activator/Deactivator)
(
Part # 660021; Figure 3.6
) is used to check
the functionality of an Accutech Tag.
Accutech Tags operate by internal battery.
Over the course of normal operation, Tags
eventually lose battery power and the Tags
will need to be replaced. The TAD is used to
determine if a Tag has sufficient battery
power to respond to an activating signal.
The TAD requires a 9-volt battery to
operate.
The TAD is used to activate Tags and is
compatible with LT and SB Tag styles.
Figure 3.6 The TAD
The “Active Band Removal or Low
Battery on Tag” LED
A TAD can detect the low battery bit of
Tags. Simply turn on the TAD and place a
Tag behind the TAD. If the Tag’s battery is
low (e.g., low enough that the Tag’s
operation is diminished below an acceptable
level) the “Active Band Removal or Low
Battery on Tag” LED will
blink rapidly . The
Tag should then be replaced.
The Active Band Removal function of this
LED is not applicable to LC systems.
The “WAIT” LED
The “WAIT” LED illuminates briefly during
Tag activation/deactivation. Do not move
the Tag while the “WAIT” LED is
illuminated.
The “Signal Strength” LEDs
The “Signal Strength” LEDs of the TAD
indicate:
The current state of a Tag (
on or off
)
(
Both LEDs will illuminate
)
Tag is Very Near (
within approx. 6
inches*
)
(
Both LEDs will illuminate
)
Tag in Area (
within approx. 2 feet*
)
(
Left LED will illuminate
)
*Inexact due to variations of the remaining Tag
battery power, remaining TAD battery power, and if
the Tag is alarming in Band Removal.
DISCLAIMER:
A TAD reading is in no way meant to be
a replacement for taking a Tag to an
active zone to test the range capability
of the Tag. When you use a TAD all you
really know is that the Tag has enough
power to respond; it is not an indication
of the range capability . In order to check
the range capability of a Tag, you must
take it to an active zone.
