Sensormatic’s tags can be deactivated with two types of equipment: A) DoubleChecker (contact deactivation) B) RapidPad The difference between the two is in the name itself. With a contact deactivation unit, DoubleChecker, the tag is deactivated by touching (contact) the tag to the deactivation pad. With a proximity deactivator, RapidPad, the tag does not have to touch the pad. Instead, it only needs to be passed over it (proximity) at a height not to exceed 4″.
