OVERVIEW
System Description
Lynx is an advanced EAS label deactivator with highly integrated control box, providing
excellent deactivation reliability and high throughput. The Lynx can work with a series of
deactivation antenna pad. When working with different antennas pad, the deactivator can
adapt to different counter applications requiring different desktop space and performance,
offering great flexibility.
Features
Proximity Deactivation
The Lynx offers proximity deactivation, making it perfect for both source tagged
and retailer tagged merchandise.
Compact Size
The compact size of of Lynx antenna pad and the control box allows Lynx to
easily be integrated into a counter application.
Integrated Audible and Visual Notification.
Label deactivation notification is built into the Lynx.
External Control Accessible
Lynx includes external control access via RS-232 series port that connects to
POS machine, footswitch and external tuning hardware.

Control Box Input Power Voltage Check
Installation Site Power Supply Check
IT’S RECOMMENDED TO HAVE ALL CONTROL BOX ON THE SAME
POWER PHASE，otherwise you need to adjust B sync value step by step
to find a best position to sync different control box connected to power
source with difference phase.
IT’S RECOMMENDED TO HAVE ENOUGH CURRENT SUPPLY FOR
DEACTIVATORS IF THERE ARE MULTIPLE DEACTIVATORS SHARE
ONE POWER SUPPLY. The rated current for Lynx is 3A but the
suggested current draw for one FastPad is 7-8A for better performance, so
a 15 amp power box will better serve 2 deactivators instead of 3 or more.
IT’S RECOMMENDED TO HAVE GOOD GROUNDING FOR POWER
SUPPLY OF DEACTIVATORS. (Some time the poor grounding and high
noise from power supply will decrease the sensitivity or detection range.)
The number on the switch shows which AC input the
system is set to.
In North America, please place the switch at 115;
While in Europe, please place the switch at 230.

Always match the antenna type (see page
3) with control box internal jumper setups
before connecting them; make sure they
are matched.
The control box hardware is identical to all
antennas but their internal jumper setups
are different and cannot be mixed.
HIGH VOLTAGE – HANDLE WITH
CARE!
Equipment must be electrically
disconnected from the branch-circuit
supply when connecting the antenna
with the control box.

Socket Connections Notice
To secure good contact and proper connections from the antenna pad to
control box, please make sure the cable sockets are firmly connected and the
pins are aligned correctly.
1.Align and Insert
2.Turn around and Lock
Procedures:
1. First align inner key with the outer slot
and insert the connector of antenna pad
into the socket of the control box
2. Secondly turn around the outer case of
the antenna pad connector until the three
outer slots capture the three outer keys
on control box socket

Power Cord Notices
North American Power Supply Cords
This equipment is supplied with an external power line at one end and
a molded receptacle terminal block at the other end. Conductors are
color coded white (neutral), black (line) and green or green/yellow
(ground).
Operation of this equipment at voltages exceeding 130 vac will require
power supply cords that comply with NEMA configurations.
International Power Supply Cord
This equipment is supplied with an external power line at one end and
a molded receptacle terminal block at the other end. Conductors are
CEE color-coded—light blue (neutral), brown (line) and green/yellow
(ground). Other IEC 320 C-13 type power supply cords can be used if
they comply with the safety regulations of the country in which they are
installed.

Fuse replacement
Equipment shall be electrically disconnected from the branch-circuit
supply when replacing the fuse.
WARNING – TO REDUCE THE RISK OF DAMAGE. REPLACE ONLY WITH
SAME TYPE AND RATING OF FUSE.
There is another internal fuse inside the Control Box and located near the AC
input voltage selection swtich on the Lynx integrated board. If the system
goes dead and primary fuse on AC socket is not blown out, please check and
replace this fuse by professional service people to see if it bring back power to
control box circuit.
