4.9 3Mt Bookcheck Model 966 (Not For
Use With Recorded Magnetic Media)
Description/Characteristics
The 3Mt Bookcheck Model 966 is designed to
desensitize and resensitize 3Mt Tattle-Tapet
Security Strips. This includes strips applied in or on
books, magazines, periodicals, and compact discs.
The Model 966 is not intended to be used with
recorded magnetic media such as audio cassettes,
video cassettes or computer software.
The Model 966 also has a verifier switch and light.
When the verifier switch is in the ON position, the
verifier light identifies materials which are protected
with active 3M Tattle-Tape security strips.
Security strips and labels on protected items must be
properly desensitized so the items can be carried
through the detection system without causing an
alarm.
When items are returned, the security strips can be
resensitized. Improperly resensitized items will not
alarm when passed through the detection system.
