DRAFT COPY INSTALLATION AND USE INSTRUCTIONS INSTALLATION AND USE INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE SCOTT SEMS® II RFID TAG WRITER COMPUTER INTERFACE DESCRIPTION AF CO PY TO PROGRAM SEMS II RFID TAGS FOR USE WITH PROPERLY EQUIPPED SCOTT AIR-PAK® SELF-CONTAINED BREATHING APPARATUS These instructions cover the software program on SCOTT software disk P/N 31001686. RFID TAG PROGRAMMER FOR SCOTT SEMS II ACCOUNTABILITY SYSTEM AND PERSONAL DISTRESS ALARM DR The SEMS II Accountability System and Personal Distress Alarm can be quickly programmed with the identification of the SCBA user using the SEMS II RFID Tag. Use the Tag Writer P/N 200734 to add unique identification information to the user’s RFID Tag. This identification number can be programmed to a combination of up to eight characters (letters and/or numbers) using the SCOTT RFID Tag Writer Software, P/N 31001686, on a personal computer with the same Tag Programmer computer interface. The SCOTT PAK-TRACKER Locator System integrated into a SCOTT PAKALERT Distress Alarm also uses the same ID number, so this software can be used to reprogram the ID for respirators equipped with that function as well. COMPUTER REQUIREMENTS The SCOTT RFID Tag Writer software is PC based and requires a minimum of WINDOWS® 2000 or higher and a 486 MHz or faster processor with approximately ten (10) megabytes of free disc space. The Interface Unit plugs into a USB 2.0 port on the computer from which it gets its power. CAUTION THE INTERFACE UNIT GETS ITS POWER FROM THE USB PORT ON THE COMPUTER. WHEN USED WITH A BATTERY POWERED LAP TOP COMPUTER, ALWAYS UNPLUG THE USB CABLE AFTER USE TO PREVENT DRAINING THE POWER FROM THE BATTERY.

Select “SEMS II RFID Tag Writer” to install the Tag Writer Software for the SEMS II Distress Alarm. Follow the instructions on the screen. You may need to close all other applications to install this program. See FIGURE 4. FIGURE 4 2. When the installer creates a folder called “Scott Health & Safety” for the files, select “Continue.” 3. When the set up is completed successfully, select “OK.” You will return to the Installer screen. 4. When finished installing, close the Installer. CREATING YOUR IDENTIFICATION PLAN DR AF Each organization using this equipment must determine how to identify the respirators used by its members. Every SEMS II PASS device must have a distinct identification. Never give two different PASS devices the same identification number. If two or more units have the same identification: – When searching with a PAK-TRACKER Hand Held Unit, it will be difficult to distinguish which unit is in alarm mode; – If two units equipped with the data logging function have the same identification, it will be difficult to distinguish which unit is in question when conducting an investigation. For units equipped with the data logging function, SCOTT recommends that you perform a Data Log download before you change the identification so that you have a record of the data log points that occurred under the old identification. Your organization must choose an identification plan that will give you the most information with the least confusion. Establish the identification plan and train everyone involved before use of the equipment in an actual event. Also consider coordinating with other organizations in your area for mutual aid situations especially when using the PAK-TRACKER equipment. TO PROGRAM THE RFID TAG 1. To start the SEMS II RFID Tag Writer software, go to the WINDOWS START Menu and select “All Programs.” Look in the “Scott Health & Safety” program folder to find the shortcut to the “RFID Tag Writer” program. See FIGURE 5. FIGURE 5 P/N 595177-01 Rev A 9/08 Page 4 of 8 DRAFT COPY 2. Select “Settings” and “COM Port Selection.” This will open a “Communications Settings” window.
