2. Setup and Installation

The Sensormatic AM Optical Tag is designed for quick and secure attachment to eyewear. Proper installation ensures effective loss prevention.

2.1 Attaching the Tag to Eyewear

1. Identify the Eyewear Frame: Select a sturdy part of the eyewear frame, typically the temple arm, that will not obstruct the shopper's view or comfort.
2. Open the Tag Mechanism: Using a compatible detacher (sold separately), open the locking mechanism of the optical tag.
3. Position the Tag: Carefully slide the open tag onto the chosen section of the eyewear frame. Ensure the tag is securely seated and does not slide freely.
4. Close the Tag: Press the two halves of the tag together firmly until you hear a distinct click, indicating that the lock is engaged. Verify that the tag cannot be easily removed without the detacher.

Important: Always use the correct Sensormatic detacher for tag removal to prevent damage to the tag or the eyewear.

3. Operating Instructions

Once attached, the Sensormatic AM Optical Tag operates passively as part of an Acousto-Magnetic (AM) Electronic Article Surveillance (EAS) system. When an item with an active tag passes through an EAS detection system (e.g., pedestals at an exit), an alarm will sound.

3.1 Tag Deactivation/Removal

To deactivate the tag for legitimate purchase or removal from display:

1. Position the Tag on Detacher: Place the optical tag onto a compatible Sensormatic detacher. The detacher's magnetic field will release the internal locking mechanism.
2. Remove the Tag: Once the lock is released, gently slide the tag off the eyewear frame.
3. Verify Deactivation: Ensure the tag is fully removed from the eyewear before the customer leaves the store to prevent false alarms.

4. Maintenance

• Cleaning: Wipe the tags periodically with a soft, dry cloth to remove dust and grime. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, as these can damage the plastic material.
• Storage: Store unused tags in a clean, dry environment away from extreme temperatures and direct sunlight.
• Inspection: Regularly inspect tags for any signs of damage, such as cracks, deformities, or issues with the locking mechanism. Damaged tags should be replaced immediately to maintain security integrity.
