2.0 GENERAL DESCRIPTION
2.1 EAS Features
2.1.1 Radio Frequency Band
Detection Limited to 8.2 MHz
• No “Application Based Detection Mode” (7.6, 9.0 detection).
• NS40 is tuned to achieve detection of HF targets at 8.2MHz ±5% radio frequency.
• Tags tuned to other frequencies may or may not produce the alarm; expect a noticeable drop in
performance for any non 8.2 tag.
• By product management and design team choice, working from voice of customer, the feature was
removed intentionally. Now the only supported band is 8.2 - different from Evolve/Liberty Systems.
Currently for NEO Antennas, please consider alterative tuning & dual frequency no longer supported.
2.1.2 Electronic Mode of Operation
The NS40 requires the NEO Controller with the EAS Sensor (TR4300 TX/RX PCB).
The controller ships in the default configuration of Detector mode, and there should be no need to
reconfigure this setting.
Each controller drives 1 NS40.
At the time of this publication, NS40 does not support PAB/SAB or the "2 SSB" Remote Installation layout.
2.1.3 Configurable alarm sound/light color
Using DMS (see section 5.0
), the Field Service Technician is able to choose from a set of pre-loaded Sound
Files (.mp3 format) or otherwise import a file, a replacement sound requested by the customer, then assign it
as the default EAS Alarm sound. The color is also selectable from a range of visual colors and patterns.
