Portable Tag Deactivation (PD) (available only with the Omni Deactivation package)
•
Remove the detector from the docking station.
•
Assure that the mode switch is set to PV.
•
To configure the Omni for Deactivator operation, a special deactivation key card will be needed. (available only
with the Omni Deactivation package)
•
Place the deactivation key card directly under the Omni antenna (see Figure 4), then depress and hold the red
operate button. All indicators, except the green PWR/LO BAT of the Omni indicators should blink in sequence at
a constant rate, indicating Portable Deactivator operation. As long as the red power button remains depressed by
the operator, the Omni will deactivate tags. Once the button is released, the Omni will return to PV mode.
•
Remove the deactivator key card and slowly bring the Omni toward the tag.
•
If the green PWR/LO BAT indicator flashes, then place the Omni Verifier back in its docking station.
•
While the tag is live, an alarm will sound and the red ALARM/CHG indicator will illuminate. Once the alarm
stops the tag has been deactivated.
Note: The deactivation key card procedure must be repeated each time the Omni is powered on. To return
to normal PV operation, simply power on the unit without the deactivation key card.
•
Replace the Omni in the docking station if not to be used further.
Recharging Batteries
The Omni is powered by rechargeable batteries, which are not accessible to the user. A docking station and desktop
power supply are supplied with each unit for recharging batteries and storage of the Omni when not in use. While
using the Omni, a low battery condition is indicated by a flashing green PWR/LO BAT indicator. To recharge the
unit, place the Omni in the docking station. Once in the docking station, a blinking red ALARM/CHG indicator
indicates a deeply discharged battery, while a continuously lit red ALARM/CHG indicator indicates normal charging
operation. After charging is complete, the red ALARM/CHG indicator will go dark, and the user is free to remove the
Omni from the docking station.
Battery Replacement
When the battery appears to be giving a reduced operation time between charges, or the unit fails to operate, the
battery may need to be replaced. Your Checkpoint Service Center can arrange this.
No attempt should be made to replace the battery other than by trained Checkpoint Service Personnel. The Omni Verifier
contains sensitive and accurately aligned circuitry, which is easily disturbed by untrained personnel. Any attempts to open the
unit will result in immediate voiding of the warranty and/or service contract.
