2 Basic safety information
• Read these operating instructions before using the UHF-RFID READER WRTZ-
1500 for the first time! Make yourself completely familiar with the installation and
operation of the UHF-RFID READER WRTZ-1500! Retain these operating
instructions for later reference.
• The UHF-RFID READER WRTZ-1500 is used for contact less reading of RFID
(Radio Frequency Identification) Tags. Only use the UHF-RFID READER
WRTZ-1500 in the manner described in these operating instructions!
• Note all the detailed safety information given within the individual work steps.
All safety information in these operating instructions is identified with the warning
symbol shown here.
• Never use the UHF-RFID READER WRTZ-1500 in areas where there is a danger
of explosion.
• Note that the electric installation of the UHF-RFID READER WRTZ-1500 may
only be done by a professional.
• It is essential to comply with the electrical, mechanical and climatic specifications
given in the Technical Data section. For further information see Chapter Technical
data.
• Do not make any changes or modifications to the UHF-RFID READER WRTZ-
1500. If changes or modifications are made, all guarantee claims are voided.
Furthermore, the radio approval required for its operation is void!
• Have a faulty UHF-RFID READER WRTZ-1500 inspected and repaired by our
repair center. Never make any repairs yourself under any circumstances.
• Dispose of the UHF-RFID READER WRTZ-1500 properly after taking out of
service. Never put the UHF-RFID READER WRTZ-1500 into the normal
household waste.
Federal Communications Commission (FCC) Approval Note:
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A digital device, pursuant to
part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful
interference when the equipment is operated in a commercial environment. This equipment generates, uses,
and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instruction
manual, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. Operation of this equipment in a
residential area is likely to cause harmful interference in which case the user will be required to correct the
interference at his own expense.
Industry Canada Approval
This Class A digital apparatus complies with Canadian ICES-003.
Cet appareil numérique de la classe A est conforme à la norme NMB-003 du Canada.
Transmit antennas should be installed such that a person can't come within 20cm of the
radiating structure.

• Never put the WRTZ-1500 into the normal household waste.
3 Introduction
UHF-RFID Reader WRTZ-1500 is the electronics system of an Ultra High Frequency
(UHF) radio frequency identification (RFID) system (typically called an interrogator or
reader) which communicates with targets that are applied to or incorporated into an item.
The targets (typically referred to as tags or labels) serve to identify the item to which it is
attached based on a unique ID stored on the target.

ATTENTION
The UHF-RFID READER WRTZ-1500 antenna ports may be susceptible to damage from
static discharge or other high voltage. Use proper Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) precautions
to avoid static discharge when handling or making connections to the WRTZ-1500 antenna
or communication ports. Equipment failure can result if the antenna or communication ports
are subjected to ESD.
3.1 Installation
The UHF-RFID READER WRTZ-1500 is build in a Portal System, for the installation guidelines refer to the
User Manual 7412044 FRONT STORE BACK STORE SYSTEM.

Caution: This device has been designed to operate with no more than 1 Watt into the antenna and an
antenna gain of no more than 6 dBic. Antenna having a higher gain is strictly prohibited per
regulations of Industry Canada, unless power into the antenna is decreased to compensate
for the increased antenna gain. The required antenna impedance is 50 ohms.
To reduce potential radio interference to other users, the antenna type and its gain should be
so chosen that the equivalent isotropic radiated power (EIRP) is not more than that required
for successful communication.
The installer of this radio equipment must ensure that the antenna is located or pointed such
that it does not emit an RF field in excess of Health Canada limits for the general
population; consult Safety Code 6, obtainable from Health Canada’s website at
www.hc-sc.gc.ca
