OPERATION
Degaussing Overview
The LCD Display (2) gives status, automatic
count, total count, software version, field
strength, user instructions and fault messages.
The following information appears on the LCD
Display (2) from power-up through one automatic
degaussing cycle:
Automatic Degaussing Technical Detail
1) The LCD displays “Insert Media Session =
0”.
2) The media to be degaussed is inserted into
the degaussing chamber through the Media
Entrance Door. While the media is sliding
into the degaussing chamber and the door is
open, the LCD will display “Door Open”.
3) The media slides into the degaussing
chamber and stops when it contacts the
media gate.
4) Sensors in the Media Entrance Door
detect that media has been inserted and
automatically initiate the degaussing process
while displaying “Erase Cycle Initiated” and
then displaying “Charging >>>>>” on the
LCD Screen.
5) The LCD will display the Field Strength
Graph “--------==I===”. The “I” in the graph
represents the strength of the erasing field.
The “=====” portion of the graph represents
the normal range for field strength level. The
“I” within the “--------=====” indicates the
erase field strength. The position of the “ I”
can vary from cycle to cycle as it is based on
the actual field strength.
6) If the field is in the normal range, the LCD will
display “Data Eliminated”.
7) If the field is not in the normal range, the
LCD will display “Erase Failure”. As an
added measure of security, the media will
remain inside the degaussing chamber until a
successful degauss is performed or until the
media is removed by following the instructions
in this manual under “Ejecting Media after an
Error”.
8) The LCD will display “Media Released”. The
media gate will lower, allowing the erased
media to exit the degaussing chamber via
the Exit Slide located on the right side of the
degausser.
9) The degausser’s internal counter will advance
one count and display the total number of
media degaussed for the current session.
