Knogo systems and support

Knogo Products and Support

Knogo history: Knogo Europe was taken over by Sensormatic (now ADT/Tyco) in 1995. Sensormatic then dropped most of the product line almost immediately. In the US Knogo became Sentry Technology Corporation and 'Knogo' is used only as a product name. The Magnetic systems are still manufactured, in limited quantities (and are still one of the best on the market). The 80 and 90 series RF products (mostly 3.25Mhz and 2 Mhz) are no longer manufactured. Staff at Maxtec have 26 years experience in installing and servicing Knogo systems. We have spares for systems (mostly used in libraries) and supply Knogo library systems. This site is run and supported by Maxtec. Knogo technical information can be found in our Servicebook.

A Knogo RF system (80 series)

knogo RF Sometimes known as a 104 system. These were installed widely across Europe. Most systems in Europe were installed at 2.0Mhz. Where as most systems installed in the UK were 3.25Mhz systems. You can order compatible tags, pins and detachers for these systems from us. please contact us using the links above for accessories at these frequencies. We also have spares for these systems. We also have new systems available that will work with Knogo tag frequencies. Please follow the link below.

Pulsar Other RF systems sold were the Pulsar (shown right) and older Doorman/Sentinal single antenna transceiver systems. Modern replacements for these systems are the Soloranger products (see link above) which can be made to order on 3.25Mhz to work with UK frequency Knogo tags (beige colour).
Also sold was the Knogo Ranger, a UHF product installed in the ceiling, no longer a popular technology in Europe.

Knogo ROCO system The picture left shows a ROCO system also available is the Chameleon system (shown below) these were mostly used for libraries although some were sold into Music stores (as below) and for video rental. Consumables (strips for spine insertion, etc) are available for these systems. New systems are also available, please contact us using the links above. We also have spares for these systems.

The picture right shows a Chameleon system, all systems are powered by the same electronics package, the only difference being in the antenna design. Also available was the 875Hz model which was used for wider aisle applications.
