3-2 The S-TAD User Manual
Activating/Deactivating Tags
The S-TAD can activate and deactivate Tags
preserving Tag battery life and preventing
nuisance alarms.
ACTIVATING
1. Unlock the S-TAD using your unique
4-digit user code.
2. On the back of the S-TAD, place the
inactive Tag in the correct orientation
within the Tag receptacle. On the front
of the S-TAD, the Tag graphic’s LED is
off (just like the physical Tag’s LED is
off).
3. Press the Enter button (green LED lit).
The Wait LED will illuminate (red) for
2 seconds. The Tag graphic’s LED on
the S-TAD will illuminate (pulsing
yellow) indicating the Tag is active (just
like the physical Tag’s LED will
illuminate).
4. If a Low Tag Battery condition is
detected, the Low Tag Battery LED will
illuminate red.
5. If a band alarm condition is detected, the
Band LED will illuminate red.
Likewise, if a band compromise
condition is detected, the Band LED will
illuminate half green and half red.
Note: Band alarm, band compromise,
and cut band conditions always take
precedence over a Low Tag Battery
condition, therefore, be sure to handle
the band-sensing Tag appropriately to
truly check for a Low Tag Battery
condition.
6. The S-TAD will still detect active Tags
and Low Battery conditions in the area
even after the Enter LED extinguishes.
However, you will have to unlock the S-
TAD again to be able to
activate/deactivate a Tag. Remember the
S-TAD will automatically lock after 1
minute of inactivity (by default).
DEACTIVATING
1. Unlock the S-TAD using your unique
4-digit user code.
2. On the back of the S-TAD, place the
active Tag in the correct orientation
within the Tag receptacle. On the front
of the S-TAD, the Tag graphic’s LED
will be pulsing yellow (just like the
physical Tag’s LED will be pulsing).
3. Press the Enter button (green LED lit).
The Wait LED will illuminate (red) for
2 seconds. The Tag graphic’s LED on
the S-TAD will extinguish indicating the
Tag is deactivated (just like the physical
Tag’s LED will extinguish).
