It does not explain how to mount the controller and its associated antenna into a counter or scanner. Mounting instructions are supplied with the mounting bracket and antenna. Note: Because customer requirements dictate the location of components at the customer site, your ADT representative will supply this information separately.

Antennas used with the controller: Note: An EEPROM in the antenna cable automatically adjusts the controller to the antennaís characteristics. If the EEPROM is not programmed, the antenna type settings default to PowerPad Pro. Low Inductance Antennas Deactivation Height Antenna* Tx Power Full Power MMS Power AMB-5182 (ZBAMB5182) Normal 20ñ22.5cm (8ñ9in) N/A Internal features: • External power supply with a universal ac input and 22Vdc output and line sync signal to the controller. • Automatic antenna type detection, except if using an optional antenna cable extension. • Auto and re-synchronization • Adjustments to transmit and deactivation fields to correct for counter thickness • Remote key switch detection • Status LED for power on, communication activity, and basic diagnostics. • Label type (SR/DR) and power level (full or MMS). • Advanced settings. • Diagnostics. Front panel features: a. Power: External ac-dc power supply connects here. b. RS-485 (Network) port: This 6-position modular jack provides RS-485 communication between Sensormatic devices and a POS system. An RS-485 based Remote provides AcoustoLink and FootLink functionality on this port. c. Status LED: For indication of power on/antenna connected (green), antenna disconnected (off), deactivation disabled (green blinking), deactivation (orange blinking), and non-recoverable fault (red). d. SERVICE port: This 4-position modular jack provides RS-232 communication to a laptop computer for advanced setup and diagnostics. e. SCANNER port: This 8-position modular jack allows a POS system, such as a bar code scanner, to control deactivation and also provides RS-232 communication if required. These ports accept various control voltages (see specs on page 13). f. REMOTE port: This 6-position RJ-11 modular jack supports the legacy Sensormatic remote alarm module. Deactivation can be disabled on this port. g. ANTENNA port: Receives a cable from the antenna. a b c d e f g ZBAMB9010 BI-PLANAR ANTENNA CONTROLLER 8200-0747-01, REV. 4A INSTALLATION AND SERVICE GUIDE 3 of 14 Power Cord Power cord length is 183cm (6ft). The cord attach- es the external power supply to an ac outlet. The type of cord used depends on the country of use. Setup A software configurator is used to setup the controller. The configurator: • Installs on a laptop computer that plugs into the SERVICE port. • Requires Windows Æ 2000 or XP operating system software on the laptop. Auto Synchronization Enabled using the software configurator, auto synchronization: • Upon power up, automatically synchronizes the controller to the strongest signal picked up by an antenna. • Enables the controller to sync its transmission to other nearby EAS systems to prevent their interference during tag detection. • The Universal Sync standard (wired sync) is supported on the NETWORK port as either transmit or receive mode, and is set up in the software configurator. • If Sensormatic devices using wireless sync are nearby, an RS-485 based Smart Remote that plugs into the NETWORK port on the controller can be used to achieve synchronization. POS Integration POS devices such as bar code scanners can control deactivation when connected to the SCANNER port. • POS devices must be programmed with special software. • Voltage specifications are on page 13. Networking A Sensormatic peripheral device such as an EAS detection system can send data to a storeís POS network usin…

Box 370 Newberry, Florida 32669 USA Re: Request for withholding from public disclosure proprietary information submitted pursuant to an application for certification for a low power transmitter. FCC ID: BVCAMB9010 Dear Sir or Madam: Sensormatic Electronics Corporation requests certain materials submitted with this application for certification of device FCC ID: BVCAMB9010 be withheld from public disclosure. This request is made under the provision of FCC DA 04-1705 dated 6/15/04, 47 CFR 0.457 (d), 0.459, and 5 USC 552(b)(4) Freedom of Information Act, Trade Secrets. The items for which confidentiality is requested include the Operational Description, Block Diagram and Schematic Diagrams. This information contains proprietary information (trade secrets) regarding the circuit operation and capabilities (specific values of components, circuit design details and system architecture) which are the result of our extensive investment in research and development. Without the disclosed information, competitive organizations would take considerable more time to assess and develop a workable competitive product. As a result, we believe that disclosure of these company-guarded materials would compromise our leading position in this market. We therefore formally request that the materials identified “Confidential” be kept strictly confidential and not made available for inspections by any other party, except on a need to know basis for the sole purpose of the certification process. Sincerely, William D. Owsley Principal Engineer, Compliance Engineering

Test Report

AMB-9010 FCC Information June 14, 2007 Transmitter measurements at antenna connector P1, Pin 1 to chassis Typical transmitter bursts are for 1.6mS and at intervals of 5.55mS, 11.11mS, 16.67mS, or 22.22mS on the 60Hz ac line or 6.67mS, 13.33mS, 20mS, or 26.67 for a 50Hz ac line. This Tx voltage waveform shows the 22.22mS burst interval. The cursors in the next waveform show that the Tx bursts are less than 166V peak to peak on the antenna connector, and provides more detail of a single Tx burst. The Tx burst contains swept frequencies in 7 discrete steps from 57.5kHz to 60kHz. Transmitter currents, Channel 1 (X), through antenna connector P1-1 to P1-3 The above waveform is the Tx current in a low inductance antenna (70uH) at the normal transmit power level. It is less than 2A peak. This waveform is a single Tx current burst. The next waveform shows both the Tx voltage at P1-1 and the Tx current, as well as their inductive phase relationship. This waveform shows more Tx current detail at the start of the Tx burst.. The waveform below is a single Tx current burst at the boost transmit power level (maximum for the 70uH antenna family). It is less than 3.6A peak. Deactivation Waveforms Deactivation Voltage Waveform at P1-1 to P1-3 (Chassis) The waveform starts at the 535V dc level, and follows the equation: v(t) = 535 * exp(-a*t) * cos((1/2*pi()*sqrt(LC))*t) The waveform voltage glitches are the SCR commutation spikes and do not appear in the current waveform. The current waveform follows the equation: i(t) = (535 / sqrt(L/C)) * exp(-a*t) * sin((1/2*pi()*sqrt(LC))*t) The measured current peak was 600A for the 70uH antenna family. L = 70uH and C = 100uF typical, while a is approximately 1070 Nepers. The frequency f is about 1900Hz. The maximum repetition rate is 3 times per second. Additional detail of the initial deactivation voltage waveform. The ring down typically takes 5 to 7 cycles for the 70 uH antennas and takes 7 to 9 cycles for the 1 mH antennas. 70uH antennas Vinitial = 535V a = 1070 Neper f = 1900Hz L = 70uH C = 100uF 1mH antennas Vinitial = 500V a = 178 Neper f = 480Hz L = 1000uH C = 100uF
