COUNTERPOINT VII
1.0 System Description
1.1
System Overview
(Sheckpoint's C/PT VII deactivation system dramatically cuts inventory shrinkage
losses from customer shoplifting and employee piIferage when used in conjunction
WIIh a Checkpoint electronic article merchandising system. Although not foolproof.
C/PT VII can reduce losses in retail stores so effectively that the savmgs will quickly
exceed the system's cost. This manual describes how to install. tune. and test the
OPT VII system.
A complete C/PT VII system consists of one chmsis. one or two pads or scanner
antennas and targets attached to protected inventory. The pad rests on the top of the
checkout counter where tagged merchandise can pass over it. The chassis is usually
mounted under or inside the checkout counter. Clerks deactivate these targets at
checkout, Ifsomeone should try to exit through the sensing system with an active
target. an alarm sounds. The manager can then intercept and verify the item has been
properly purchased.
1.1.1 How the System Works
One chassis can drive up to two pads or up to two scanner/deactivators or a
combination ot‘both, A random pulsed-RF signal is generated by the chassis.
This signal is sent through a cable or cables connected to one or two pads
creating an RF iield above the pad(s). When a Checkpoint target enters the
tield, it responds to the chassrs’ signal by resonating and emitting a signal of
its own. Depends on its operating modes. the chassis either picks up the
targei‘s signal. and amplifies the subsequent pulses to destroy or deactivate
the target. or operates in the high power mode to destroy or deactivate the
target all the time,
1.1.2 System Effectiveness
It is possibIe to subvert the OPT VII system. For example. targeted
merchandise can be deactivated by customers. then concealed. Customers
could also remove targets from protected merchandise. Customers can learn
these and other tricks to evade security measures.
Most theft loss arises from impulsive shoplifters, who sense an opportunity to
steal and spontaneously act to take advantage of it. C/PT VII. in conjunction
with a sensing system. acts effectively to discourage these casual shoplifters.
and they seldom Icam how to defeat this system.

1.2 Chassis
The chassis is mounted inside or under the checkout stand so that it is within 8 feet of
an AC power outlet, 7 feet of a pad, 5 feet of a scanner antenna.
On the unit's face are:
0 a recessed power switch,
0 an access hole to the internal volume control,
a a green LED ( POWER) that lights when power is on,
o a red LED ( ALARM ) that lights when a live tag is detected,
- a green LED ( SLAVE ) that lights when the C/PT VII is locked in slaved mode.
. a yellow LED ( DISABLE ) that lights when the C/PT VII is inhibited.
On the unit's back are:
a a 6-pin female connector for antenna connection,
0 three access holes for power, slaving, interlock. inhibit. and remote unit cables.
1.3 Power Supply
The standard C/PT VII chassis operates on 120 VAC/15 VDC or 220 VAC/l 5
VDC supply with a current rating ofover 0.5 A.
1.4 Remote Unit
When the C/PT VII is configured in IV or VI mode. a remote unit is needed.
On the remote unit's face are:
0 a recessed power switch.
- a green LED that lights when power is on,
0 a sonalert that beeps when a live tag is detected by the C/PT VII.
1.5 Antenna
The C/PT VII chassis can be used with a variety of antenna configurations.
Checkpoint or some scanner manufacturers produce these antennas.
1.6 Target
The C/PT VII system is compatible with all 8.2 MHz deactivatable tags. In addition.
the C/PT VII will alarm when a non-deactivatable tag is placed in its field, but it will
not deactivate the tag. Occasionally, non-deactivatable paper tags ( those with lower
than average breakdown voltage ) will be deactivated, especially when placed near a
comer of the pad where field strength is greatest The CSE should be aware of this
rare event

CfPT VII can drive one or two pads or scanner/deactivators. The cable length
for the pad is 8 feet. (Don’t alter the cable length under any circumstance)
Place each pad in position on its counter, The maximum distance between the
two pads that are connected to a single chassis is 12 feet. The best performance
can be achieved if the pad cable run straight out of the pad for at least 6“
(15 cm) before it changes direction. See Figure 32.1. lfthe direct pad-chassis
route takes the cable back under the pad. beneath the counter top, it’s best to
route the cable along the center ofthe pad. See Figure 3.2.1. Ensure that
deactivation remains as transparent to the checkout process as possible Connect
the pads cables to either ANTI (pin L} ot’Jllor ANT2 (pin 4.6 ole) with
drain wires to GND (pin 2 or 5 ot'Jl) on the C/PT VII. See Figure 3.1 for the

Since the C/PT VII uses pulse-listen technology. it’s difficult to measure the
center frequency and the deviation using regular tools. Use dip meter and the ear
phone to tune the center frequency and the deviation Adjust R21 for deviation and
R22 for center frequency. You should hear the clicking sound with your earphone
from 7 4 -9.0 MHz when you sweep the frequency using the dip meter. See Figure
8,1.
IV Mode
Follow step 5.2 to configure the chassis
Detection Field Adjustment
When in IV mode. the detection tield should be adjusted properly to achieve
the best performance.
Measured with Fluke meter. adjust Rll so that the DC voltage at TP2 is
3.0 VDC. See Figure 8.1,

6.5 Interlock Turn-On Time Adjustment
When the interlock function is used. adjust R9 clockwtse to increase the tnterlock
Tum-On time from 0 — 3 seconds. See Figure 8.1.
After The Installation
Wait until after installation and tuning to show the customer personnel how the deactivator
operates. Ensure that site management is present and let them designate which site
employees will attend, lfyou have just installed a sensing system and deactivators, explain
the sensing system operation first. then follow with the deactivator operations. as follows:
7.1 Turning the Deactivator On and Off
The deactivator should be turned ot‘fwhen not in use to prevent unauthorized
personnel from deactivating tags.
Show the operation of the power switch. and point out the green light on the chassis.
which shows that the power is on. If the sensing system control module is Model N
or later. mention that a key is required to activate the system. lfthe sensing system is
the master in a slaved configuration. indicate that it must be on before the deactivators
will function.
7.2 How the Deactivator Works
Show how the deactivator operation is similar to the sensing system in that both
systems transmit radio signals which cause tags to respond with their own radio
signals when they come into range. Explain that each system’s receiver recognizes
then verifies the tag signal. Then explain that the difference between the two is what
each does with the verified tag signal. The sensing system alarms loudly upon tag
verification. The deactivator alarms softly at the chassis and disables the tag. When
deactivation is immediate. there will he no audible alarm.
7.3 When the Tag Doesn‘t Deactivate
Explain that tags vary in length oftime required to deactivate. Some tags deactivate
instantly, while others take longer. It may he that a very few wouldn't deactivate
automatically. lfthis should occur. just place a Thank You label over the tag.
Mention that any hard tags, hang tags. or nonvdeactivatable stickers also will not

deactivate automatically. Clerks must either remove these tags or mask them with 3
Thank You label. For these tags. the deactivator acts as a point of sale detector. It
continues to alarm softly until the tag is removed or masked.
7.4 When the Sensing System Alarms
Employees should follow their management's standard procedure for handling sensing
system alarms. just as ifthere were no deactivators in the store. lfthere is no standard
procedure. make a mental note to encourage management to set one. Wait until after
you conclude the training meeting to avoid embarrassing management in front ot'the
employees.
7.5 Testing the Deactivator
Employees should turn on the deactivator before use and turn off the deactivator
when unattended. An employee verifies power by viewing the green light on the
chassis. Beyond checking the power on switch. there isn't much need to test the
deactit ator‘s function because it will be immediately apparent should a unit fail to
disable tags.
Show employees how to test for deactivation in case site management should want to
test a unit, In IV and VI modes. use a hard tag, hang tag or non-deactivatable sticker.
Hold it about 18" (46 cm) above each deactivator pad and bring it down slowly to the
pads surface. Point out alarm occurs at about [0.5" (27 cm) height. Take a
deactivatable sticker and move it down in the same manner. Observe the signal stops
as the tag gets closer. Try to alarm the deactivator again with the some tag to verify
that it has been disabled. Make sure that this activity doesn't alarm any other
deactivator or sensing system, In V mode. use DVIOOO and live 410 tags to test the
system.
7.6 Operational Problems
Give site management the telephone numbers used for calling Checkpoint servrce
about equipment problems. Detail how to avoid potential problems by keeping
permanent tags and stickers and also metal objects away from the deactivator pads.
7.7 Tagging
Show how deactivatable stickers can now be hidden in protected merchandise.
Remind the customer that metal and foil objects usually can't be protected by pressure
sensitive tags, Detail that all procedures for tagging merchandise covered in the
User's Guide apply also to deactivatable tags. Detail the necessity ofmaintaining a
tagging system, use of merchandise value or theft activity to decide which
merchandise to tag, and the need for following an established procedure when the
sensing system alarms.

Appendix A Fine Tuning
DIP switch settings in Table 5,l and Performance Matrix in Table 8.4 are based on the tests
performed in the lab under following conditions:
1, Use of6 feet, #l8 cables for the scanners
2. Use of 8 feet, #l8 cables for the pads
3 Free ofany interfering RF systems in an open environment
4. Use of standard 410 test tag in V mode testing
5. Use of standard 410 tags in IV mode testing
In actual installation. these settings may be changed for proper performance of the C/PT VII due to
environmental variations. Ifyou are not able to tune the C/PT VII following the normal tuning
procedure detailed in previous chapters. refer to this chapter for fine tunings.
A.l Detailed Tuning in [V Mode
To fine tune the C/PT VII in IV mode, change switches SW] and SW5 so that the average
amplitude ofthe AC signal at TPI is both maximized and as flat as possible Start with SWl
and SWS all off and turn on the DIP switches two at a time beginning at position (1). The
following is an example oftuning 12 x 12 padt

From A1.1 to A13 it's clear that SWl and SWS position (1) should be set to on (A141) for
12 x [2 pad because the average amplitude of the AC signal at TPl is highest and more flat
compared to the others.
If the C/PT VII phantoms, check the sensitivity as follows:
