Yes. TAGIT EM EAS systems are designed to detect compatible EM security labels concealed in aluminium foil and foil-lined booster bags. Detection performance depends on the EM label type, system configuration, installation environment and concealment method.
Yes. TAGIT EM EAS labels are compatible with many established electromagnetic security systems, including TAGIT, 3M, J&P, Gateway, Certus and Dialoc. Compatibility with Meto and other system configurations should be verified for the specific installation. TAGIT also offers dual-technology EM labels for applications requiring compatibility across different EM system formats.
Yes. TAGIT EM EAS systems are designed for challenging applications involving EM security labels on metal-containing products and packaging. Detection performance depends on the product, EM label type and placement, system configuration and installation environment.
The appropriate EM security label depends on the product size, material, shape, available label placement and required detection performance.
Larger products can generally accommodate longer EM labels, while small, curved or difficult-to-protect products may require specialized label formats. TAGIT offers a wide range of EM EAS labels, including standard labels, narrow labels, Twin Labels and Power Labels for different retail, library and asset-protection applications.
For products containing metal or other challenging materials, label selection and placement should be tested with the specific product and EM EAS system configuration.
The return on investment of an EM EAS security system depends on merchandise value, shrink levels, store traffic, protected product categories, system configuration and operating environment.
TAGIT EM EAS systems support theft prevention across a wide range of merchandise, including small and difficult-to-protect products, cosmetics, electronics, books, tools and metal-containing or foil-packaged products.
For resellers and customers evaluating an installation, TAGIT can recommend a system and EM label configuration based on the entrance layout, merchandise and security requirements.
TAGIT EM EAS systems can protect a wide range of products, but detection performance depends on the product material, shape, EM label type and placement, system configuration and installation environment.
TAGIT offers specialized EM security labels for challenging applications, including:
- Small or irregularly shaped products
- Curved surfaces and packaging
- Metal-containing products and packaging
- Foil-packaged merchandise
- Books and media
- Electronics, cosmetics, tools and other high-value merchandise
Products containing strongly magnetized materials or presenting other challenging electromagnetic characteristics should be tested to determine the appropriate EM label and system configuration.
Electronic and electromagnetic equipment located near an EM EAS system can create environmental interference that may affect detection performance.
Potential sources of interference can include:
- Electrical equipment and power installations
- Computers and monitors
- LED and fluorescent lighting
- Air-conditioning and building equipment
- Other nearby electromagnetic security systems
The effect depends on the equipment, distance from the antennas, installation environment and EM EAS system configuration. Proper site assessment, antenna positioning and system configuration can help minimize environmental interference.
TAGIT EM EAS system performance in high-interference environments can be improved through proper system configuration, antenna positioning and reduction of nearby sources of electromagnetic interference.
Depending on the installation and TAGIT system model, optimization may include:
- Using a Master-Master configuration where appropriate
- Enabling Turbo Mode on supported systems
- Adjusting system sensitivity and operating parameters
- Optimizing antenna positioning and installation distanceIdentifying and reducing nearby sources of electromagnetic interference
The appropriate configuration depends on the TAGIT EM EAS system, entrance layout and local electromagnetic environment. For challenging installations, TAGIT technical support can assist resellers and integrators with system configuration and optimization.
Detection performance and achievable aisle width depend on the system configuration, EM label type and size, product characteristics, antenna positioning and local electromagnetic environment.
To optimize performance:
- Select the appropriate antenna configuration for the entrance layout
- Use Master-Master configuration or Turbo Mode where supported and appropriate
- Optimize antenna positioning and system parameters
- Select the appropriate EM label size and format for the product
- Use specialized EM labels for small, curved, metal-containing or other challenging products
- Identify and minimize sources of electromagnetic interference
The optimum aisle width should be determined for the specific system, label, merchandise and installation environment.
