About the Product
The AMS-9050 controller is part of an EAS system
that:
Includes pedestal type antennas.
Deters theft by activating an alarm when it
detects the unique response of an active
Ultra•Max hard plastic tag or disposable label
when its signal is picked up by an antenna.
Connection for hardwired sync and transmit
inhibit function.
Supports RS-232 (local diagnostics) and RS485 (remote diagnostics).
Supports RS-485 network communication to
antennas (if supported by antenna).
Service Features
The controller detaches from its cable access
panel to facilitate servicing.
Built-in mounting flange enables the controller
to mount to a wall or inside a checkout counter.
The controller can also rest on a shelf or attach
to a ceiling.
System status LED on controller displays error
codes used for troubleshooting.
Six knockouts receive exposed cables or cables
in conduit. Knockouts are available for Class 2
wiring from antennas and low voltage devices.
To detect a tag:
Installation Features
Basic Operation and Setup
Antenna(s) connected to the controller emit a
58kHz magnetic field close to the tag/label’s
natural frequency causing it to vibrate or “ring”
at the frequency of the field. When the field is
removed, energy in the tag/label dissipates
causing an exponential ring down.
The controller processes signal inputs picked up
by the antennas to determine if they are
indicative of a tag/label signal.
If the controller detects a tag/label signal, it
activates audio-visual indicators on each
antenna that picked up the signal and/or
activates remote alarm devices, if used.
Setup Features
Supports various pedestal antennas used to
detect tags/labels at exits or in food store
checkout aisles.
Supports up to four AMS-1100/-1101 unicoil
transceiver exit pedestals, or up to four AMS1080 aisle pedestals, each with separate
transmit and receive coils.
Antennas can be set up as four transceivers,
or four transmit/receive pairs, or combinations of both using a laptop computer and
ADS 4 service configurator software. Two
receivers can be noise canceling coils.
Automatic configuration is available for the
commonly used system configurations.
ADS 4 service configurator software enables the
field technician to:
Adjust the system
Synchronize the controller to other EAS
systems using the ac line, or wired
synchronization
Monitor and adjust for noise interference and
use of a 58kHz jammer device
Download software application updates
Monitor internal temperature of the controller
Perform diagnostic tests and read error codes.
Antenna coils can be set for phase flipping
(default), aiding, or figure-8 operation.
Note: Phase flipping is unavailable when
noise canceling coils are used.
Supports auto synchronization
Supports the following alarm devices:
Built-in alarm in the antenna (if used)
Up to two externally-powered remote alarms
Externally-powered Sensormatic alarm
management or traffic flow device
Up to two relays for devices such as security
cameras.

only available in AMS-1101 antennas.
Receiver Connectors (P98, P99, P101, P103):
Four connectors accept up to four receive
antennas. Top coils use the Coil 1 connections;
bottom coils use the Coil 2 connections.
Noise canceling coils can also share two of these
connectors (P99, P103), with each coil using the
top coil (Coil 1) connection. If connecting a noise
canceling coil and a receive antenna into the same
connector, the top and bottom coils of the receive
antenna must share the Coil 2 connection (done in
the field by the technician switching the antenna
wire connections). Thus phase flipping is
unavailable when noise canceling coils are used.
Antennas/coils connected to receiver inputs are
designated A, B, C, and D. These connectors
default to receive function with no auto detection.
ABOUT NOISE CANCELING COILS: Noise
canceling coils, such as a Ranger antenna or the
top coil of a pedestal antenna, are used to cancel
noise that interferes with detector operation.
For example, if using a:
1-2 dual pedestal exit system using two
AMS-1101 alarm antennas as transceivers:
Set S1 switches 1–4 and S2 switches 1–4 to
“on” (switches 5–8 of S1 and S2 can be left
either on or off).
Also ensure no receive antennas such as
noise coils are connected to the controller
when using transceivers.
Noise canceling coils only connect to the Coil 1
input.
To accept a noise canceling coil, the auxiliary
input must be in noise canceling mode (set
using service configurator software). Save
adjustments to default settings if they are to be
used on the next power cycle or system reset.
Move the noise canceling coil around while
monitoring power levels on a laptop computer to
find where noise cancellation is best. This is
where the coil should be installed.
The location for the noise canceling coil must be
practical as well as yield satisfactory results.
1-2_3-4 dual pedestal exit system or 1-2-3-4
quad system using four AMS-1101 alarm
antennas as transceivers:
Set S1 switches 1–8 and S2 switches 1–8 to
“on”.
Also ensure no receive antennas such as
noise coils are connected to the controller
when using transceivers.
Dual pedestal aisle system using two AMS1080 aisle antennas, one a transmitter, the
other a receiver: Set S1 switches 1–8 and S2
switches 1–8 to “off”.
Noise coils: If using noise coils, turn off S1
switches 1–2 for RxC and/or S2 switches 5–6
for RxD.

Installation Features
Wired Synchronization
The AMS-9050 controller provides the following
installation features:
If a wired Tx sync device is connected to the
controller, the controller automatically uses its
signal as the timing reference instead of the ac
line. The service configurator indicates that wired
sync is active.
Auto Synchronization
Wired Synchronization
Transmitter Current Control
Controller Mounting.
Transmitter Current Control
This function enables you to inhibit the transmitter
and/or alarms of the desired pedestal using the
Tx/Alarms inhibit switch located in the top of
antennas that support this function.
Auto Synchronization
Auto synchronization occurs during power up or
system reset. Auto sync can have different
outcomes depending on whether or not nearby
EAS transmitters are detected, they are properly
aligned to the ac-derived timing of the controller, or
too much ambient noise exists.
Controller Mounting
No transmitters detected. During initialization, the
controller determines if EAS transmitters are
nearby. If none are found, transmitter delay is set
to zero if this is the initial power on, or set to the
value stored in the controller if not the initial power
on.
Transmitters detected:
Transmitters detected and aligned. If
transmitters are correctly aligned, the
transmitter delay is calculated and stored in the
controller for reference.
Transmitters detected and not aligned. If
transmitters are not aligned, the transmitter
delay is set to zero if this is the first power on of
the controller, or set according to the value
stored the controller if not the initial power on.
The controller has a built-in flange used to attach
the controller to a wall or ceiling using suitable
hardware.
Ceiling attachment requires plywood be first
attached to the ceiling and then the controller
attached to the plywood.
Structure and mounting hardware must support
25.6kg (56.5 lbs) or four times the weight of the
controller assembly.
Too much ambient noise. During initialization, the
controller locates other nearby EAS transmitters.
If ambient noise prevents the controller from
locating nearby EAS controllers and if this is the
first power on of the controller, transmitter delay
is set to zero.
If this is not the first power on of the controller,
the zero crossing delay stored in the controller
is used.
Note: The controller stores the zero crossing delay
for when the controller could not determine a
reliable lock during subsequent power cycles.
Instead of using zero for the delay, the controller
uses the stored zero crossing delay.

Internal diagnostics:
Service Features
The AMS-9050 controller provides the following
service features:
The service configurator displays the operating
current for each antenna. Operating current is
15A peak for all countries.
The service configurator displays ambient
temperature within the controller.
The hardware supports software with a remote
command to reset the system.
Hardware within the controller protects it from
runaway software.
“Tag Too Close” function
Service configurator software
Internal diagnostics
LED system status indicator
Remote diagnostics via an Ethernet or RS-485
network
Transmit/Alarm Inhibit function
Detachable cable access panel.
LED system status indicator: An LED system
status indicator on the controller indicates the
following:
“Tag Too Close” function: Using the service
configurator, you can select the “tag-too-close”
function to help prevent false alarms. With this
function selected, the red lamp on top of the
antenna blinks twice every four seconds for one
minute when the system detects one or more
stationary tags or labels are too close to it. The
lamp goes out when these tags/labels are moved
away from the system.
Tagged items must be kept at least 1.5m (5ft) away
from all sides of the antenna.
Service configurator software: Operating
software required: Windows® 95, 98, NT, 2000, or
XP.
Green flashing (system on and okay)
Yellow flashing (performance downgraded;
service recommended)
Red flashing in a particular sequence (fault
detected, call for service)
The number of red flashes identifies a digit in a
two-digit alert code (for example, four flashes is
the number four). The start of an alert code is
indicated by a long LED interval. Then the first
digit of the code occurs, followed by a short
delay, followed by the second digit.
Alert codes are listed on page 13.
Remote diagnostics via an Ethernet or RS-485
network: Using a service laptop, service personnel
can dial-up and connect to a network of controllers
to troubleshoot problems and change controller
parameters (see page 14).
Service configurator software downloaded to a
laptop computer is required to setup and
troubleshoot the controller. The service
configurator enables you to:
Set antenna configurations
Customize detection for each antenna
Monitor transmit and noise levels from each
antenna
Monitor transmit current from each antenna
Customize alarm setup
Turn off transmitters
Monitor temperature inside the controller
Download new software features/updates to
flash memory
Provide a system error report.
Transmit/Alarm Inhibit function: This function
enables you to inhibit the transmitter and/or alarms
of the desired pedestal using the Tx/Alarms inhibit
switch located in the top of antennas supporting
this function.
Detachable cable access panel: By removing six
screws from the perimeter of the cable access
panel and disconnecting cables, the electronics
can be removed for easy servicing or replacement
without disturbing cabling.
Note: Special tools are not required when installing
the controller as long as the antennas are installed
in a reasonable noise environment and local
transmitters are properly adjusted.
Note: If default settings are changed, you do not
need to turn the controller off and on to store them.

System Status Alert Codes
The System Status LED on the controller displays
system status alert codes. When an alert code
occurs, the LED changes color and pattern. Red is
for serious alerts while yellow is for those less
serious.
a. The number of red flashes identifies a digit in a
two-digit alert code (for example, four flashes is
the number four). The start of an alert code is
indicated by a long LED interval. Then the first
digit of a two-digit error code occurs, followed by
a short delay, followed by the second digit.
b. See the table opposite for the significance of the
alert code. Most alert codes are automatically
resolved.
c. Some codes can only be accessed using the
service configurator. They are not displayed by
the Status LED.
d. Alert codes are lost when the controller is reset.
Code storage has a time stamp in days, hours,
minutes, seconds, milliseconds/ ticks of when
the system alert occurred.

About the Product
The AMC-7000 Integrated Metal Foil Detection kit
(ZPMETAL-DET) is an AMS-9050 option that
detects metal with a large surface area, such as
aluminum foil, when it passes between the
pedestals of a system. It is designed to not detect
metal objects with small continuous surfaces, such
as keys and shopping carts. The kit can only be
used with AMS-9050 controllers and only for dualpedestal 2m systems.
The AMC-7000 consists of the following:
• a circuit board housed in a metal enclosure
• cabling and associated connectors
• mounting brackets and associated hardware

About this Guide
This installation guide explains how to install the
AMC-7000 Integrated Metal Foil Detection kit
(ZPMETAL-DET). The AMC-7000 is an option for
AMS-9050 controllers connected to dual 2m
Ultra•Exit antennas (ZS1090, ZS1091, and
ZS1102) with the Integrated Traffic Flow option
(ZPUE-TRAFFICNTR). Other related documents

•
Installation Guide, Ultra•Exit Transceiver
Antennas, 8200-0537-16
Note: Because customer requirements dictate the
placement of system components, your
Sensormatic representative will supply this
information separately.
Features
• Automatic Detection Adjustment – the system
adjusts itself to changes in the amount of metal
in the environment.
• Enclosure is suitable for use in environmental
air handling space other than ducts or plenums.
• Directional Inhibit support – using the People
Counter option, system can be set to alarm for
incoming metal only, out-going metal only, or
both.
• Multiple alarm methods – the system can
indicate the presence of metal by several
methods: a visual alarm at the pedestal, an
audio alarm at the pedestal, the triggering of a
relay that connects to another device (such as a
paging system), or an alarm at a digital remote
alarm.
• Metal foil detection counts – the number of
metal foil detections can be displayed on an
optional Local Device Manager (LDM).
• Low power requirements – can be powered by
Alarm output of AMS-9050 controller.
• Large coverage area – detects metal between
two 2m (6.5ft) antennas up to 1.5m (5ft) high.
• Wired synchronization – wired synchronization
of controller with other controllers must use
Universal Synchronization because the Wired
Synch port is needed for Metal Foil Detection.

Connecting Relay-activated
Devices
The Metal Foil Detection enclosure can connect to
relay-activated devices such as camera switchers
or pager systems. You can then program the
device to perform some function, such as switching
cameras or sending a message to a pager. These
devices are connected to P9 on the Metal
Detection Board.
Two relays are available on P9: Relay A (1) and
Relay B (2). (Refer to Figure 2 for a pinout of P9.)
Both of these relays are activated for one second
when a metal event is detected. These relays are
not configurable. If additional relays are needed,
you can use the relays on the AMS-9050 controller;
they are configurable on the Setup screen of the
ADS4 Platform configurator. Refer to “Configuring
the Alarm Settings” on page 29 for more
information.

3. Mount the AMS-9050 to the wall or ceiling. See
Figure 5.
Mounting the AMC-7000
The AMC-7000 enclosure can be mounted either
on top of the AMS-9050 controller or next to it.
Mounting next to the controller
The AMC-7000 enclosure can be mounted next to
the controller. See Figure 4.
• To ensure the cables can reach from the
enclosure to the controller, do not mount the
enclosure more than 15cm (6in) from the
controller.
• Ensure the enclosure is mounted in the
same orientation as shown in Figure 4 so
that the cables will be able to reach the
connectors in the controller.
The controller has a built-in flange used to
attach the controller to a wall or ceiling using
suitable hardware. Because the metal foil
detection box mounts to the AMS-9050
controller, the controller must be mounted to the
wall or ceiling securely enough to support four
times the combined weight of the controller
(6.5kg) and metal foil detection box (2.4kg).
Therefore, the mounting method must support
35.4kg (79lbs).
• Drywall attachment – Use four 23kg (50lb)
drywall anchors and four #8 screws at least
32mm (1-1/4in) long or their equivalents to
attach the AMS-9050/AMC-7000 combo to
the drywall.
• Ceiling attachment – Use a sheet of 16mm
(5/8in) plywood and four #8 screws at least
32mm (1-1/4in) long to attach the controller
to the plywood.
Mounting on top of the controller
1. Attach the two mounting brackets to the top of
the AMS-9050 controller.
2. Attach the AMC-7000 enclosure to the two
mounting brackets. Ensure the enclosure is
oriented correctly relative to the controller, as
shown in Figure 4.

b. Click on the button label Metal Connect.
Downloading Files
You must download the appropriate hex files for
the Metal Detection option.
1. Connect your service laptop to the system at a
service port on the AMS-9050 controller, the
antenna, or the Metal Detection enclosure.
Note: if you connect to the antenna or controller,
the system will not be able to alarm because of
metal or alarms while the laptop is connected.
2. Find the directory that has the following files:
File Name
File Description
AdsCeConfig.exe
ADS4 Platform
Configurator
AMS-9050.hex
AMS-9050 hex file, ver.
19052 or later
MetalDetect.hex
Metal Detection hex file
c.
3. Start the ADS4 Platform configurator (ver. 4.00).
4. In the Configuration section of the Setup
screen, do the following:
Download the Metal Detection firmware file
(MetalDetect.hex) into the Metal Detection
board. This can be done while the laptop is
connected to the Service connector on
either the controller or the Metal Detection
enclosure.
• Set the Configuration to 1-2 Dual
• Set the Configuration to Exit
• Put a check in the Metal Detection box
5. Ensure the AMS-9050 controller has the latest
hex file (version 19052 or later).
6. Ensure the AMC-7000 has the latest Metal
Detection hex file. If it doesn’t, download the
Metal Detection hex file into the AMC-7000.
a. On the System drop-down menu, select
Metal Detection.

Configuring the Metal Detection
Settings
On the Metal Detection screen in the configurator,
you read the level indicators and then configure the
appropriate settings for the site.
1. Configure the environment as it will be when the
store is open. Move any racks to their normal
place, open doors if they are open during the
day, etc.
2. Click on the Metal Detection tab. The Metal
Detection configuration screen appears. See
Figure 6.

3. Wait until the system calibrates. This occurs
when the Instantaneous Ref levels (green bars)
settle to near 0, the Epot values stop changing,
and the Rx Sum stops decreasing. This usually
takes less than a minute.
4. Test the system with the Foil Bag Simulator,
which is a 30cm x 30cm (1ftx1ft) sheet of
aluminum that simulates a foil-lined bag. (The
instructions for using the Foil Bag Simulator are
printed on it and are also described in the
section on page 27 entitled Testing the
System.) When you walk the Foil Bag Simulator
between the pedestals, does the Rx Sum rise
above the dynamic Alarm Threshold (Black

Arrow) and cause a metal detection alarm but
not exceed the Inhibit Threshold (Blue Arrow)?
11.
Does the site have doors with metal in
them that permanently open into the detection
zone during the day and remain closed at night
(or vice versa)?
• Yes. Go to Step 5.
No. Go to Testing the System
To test a system for its ability to detect foil-lined
bags, use the Foil Bag Simulator.
• Yes. Go to the Setting the Smart Threshold
procedure.
1. Hold the Foil Bag Simulator vertically when
walking between the pedestals. Do not lay it flat
or turn it sideways.
• No. You are finished.
2. Walk with the Foil Bag Simulator midway
between the pedestals at a normal pace. Do not
hold the Simulator closer to one pedestal.
3. A system can alarm going IN only, OUT only, or
both; test in both directions if needed.
Setting the Smart Threshold
If exit doors with metal are opened during the day
(placing them close to the antennas) and closed at
night, this can lead to either insufficient sensitivity
during the day or false alarms at night. To solve
this problem, use the Smart Threshold feature.
1. Open all the doors.
4. Repeat this procedure for any other pedestal
pairs that have metal detection.
2. Wait for the system to finish calibrating and
become stable.
• Trouble-Shooting and then return to Step 5.
3. Adjust the system for proper operation.
5. Without the Foil Bag Simulator in the detection
area, does the Rx Sum get close to the Alarm
Threshold or cause a false alarm?
4. Enable the Smart Threshold.
5. Press the Set Offset button.
Yes. Raise the Min Threshold. If this
does not work, go to Testing the
System
6. Note the value for the Alarm Threshold (the
black arrow).
To test a system for its ability to detect foil-lined
bags, use the Foil Bag Simulator.
8. Wait for the system to finish calibrating and

6. Hold the Foil Bag Simulator vertically when
walking between the pedestals. Do not lay it flat
or turn it sideways.
9. Note the value for the Alarm Threshold and
Inhibit Threshold. Did the thresholds increase
enough so that the system is not close to false
alarming with the doors closed?
7. Close the doors.
7. Walk with the Foil Bag Simulator midway
between the pedestals at a normal pace. Do not
hold the Simulator closer to one pedestal.
• Yes. You are done.
• No. Increase the Smart Thr Gain and go

13.
Repeat this procedure for any other
pedestal pairs that have metal detection.
5. When the Foil Bag Simulator goes through the
field, does the Rx Sum rise above the Inhibit
Threshold (Blue Arrow), which causes the
system to fail to alarm?
Trouble-Shooting
If the system is either failing to detect metal or false
alarming, use the following procedure to determine
the cause and correct it.
a. Enable Cart Inhibit and raise Inhibit
Threshold to a value above the high point of
the Rx Sum.
1. Is the Rx sum stable? If it isn’t, check the Top,
Bot, and Diff receiver levels for stability.
Sometimes an unstable receiver level can be
caused by 58kHz interference from an adjacent
in-phase transmitter. This will be indicated by a
red Interference Indicator.
b. Adjust the Analog Gain setting, if
necessary. The Analog Gain default is set
to the maximum; you should lower it only if
the Rx Sum is at or near the top of the chart
when a cart goes through the field and
when a Foil Bag Simulator goes through the
field, so that the system has a hard time
discriminating between the two.
a. Adjust the Coil Filters if necessary. Increase
the value in steps of 2 units if the mean Ref
value (Green Arrows) changes too fast.
Increasing Coil Filters too much, however,
can make the system sluggish.
6. Does the Rx Sum rise near or above the
dynamic Threshold when the Foil Bag Simulator
is not near the system?
b. Adjust the Coil Weights, if necessary. Lower
the weight for a coil if the receiver level for a
coil is still unstable after adjusting the Coil
Filter.
• Raise the Min Thr. setting.
2. Are the instantaneous receiver levels for each
of the coils between -500 and +500?
• Yes. Go to Step 3.
• No. Click on Epot Nulling.
3. Are any of the Epot values near 0 or 255?
• If Epot is near 255, set Attenuator to -6dB.
• If Epot is near 0, set Attenuator to 0dB.
4. When the Foil Bag Simulator goes through the
field, does the Rx Sum fail to rise above the
dynamic Alarm Threshold?
a. Adjust the Scale setting, if necessary to
view the low-value Sum.
b. Adjust Min Thr. Lower it if the system
doesn’t alarm with the Foil Bag Simulator
and Analog Gain and Attenuator are already
maxed. Raise it if the system false alarms
or nearly false alarms.

Note: the relays you configure with the Relays
parameters are the relays in the AMS-9050
controller at P54, not the relays on the Metal
Detection Board at P9. The relays at P9 on the
Metal Detection Board activate only for metal
events for one second and are not configurable.
The detector can be configured to alarm on three
events: a metal foil detection event, a jammer
detection event, and an EAS tag detection event. It
can signify any of these events in three ways:
trigger a relay, flash an alarm lamp, or emit an
audio alarm.
