Reader Overview
Reader Software
The 3M Compact RFID Reader 1000 is shipped with two software
applications that you can use to configure and control the reader.
Reader Startup Tool (RST)
RST is a Microsoft Windows application you install on your computer. With
RST, you can view all readers on your network. After selecting a reader, you
can modify its communication, network, and operational parameters. You
can also read tags, review tag data, perform diagnostics, and upload new
software. This RST is primarily intended for initially configuring a reader
prior to deployment. After deployment, use the Embedded Reader
Configuration Tool (RCT). Detailed information on the RST is provided in
Chapter 5.
Embedded Reader Configuration Tool (RCT)
RCT is an embedded reader application that allows you to access your
readers across the internet. Enter the IP address of the reader into your web
browser and the RCT allows you to fully modify and operate the reader. With
the same functionality as the RST, this application allows you to modify the
reader’s communication, network, and operational parameters. You can
also read tags, review tag data, perform diagnostics, and upload new
software. This application is primarily intended for configuring and
managing deployed readers. Detailed information on the RCT is provided in
Chapter 6.

Reader Equipment Installation
Connecting the Serial Port
The 1000 is equipped with one DB9 type RS-232 serial port for
communication up to 115200 Baud. If you are using the serial port for
reader communication, connect a serial cable from the COM port on your PC
to the serial port on the reader. See Figure 2 for location of the connector.
The maximum serial cable length is 12 feet at 115200 Baud.
Connecting the USB Ports
The 1000 is equipped with two USB 2.0 ports. The USB Type B port provides
connectivity to the 1000 console. This connection is used to send
commands and receive responses and is typically connected to your server.
The USB Type A port is used for external devices such as printers, external
hard drives, or other peripherals.
For standard communications, connect a USB Type B cable to the reader
and then to your PC or server. The maximum cable length is 5 meters to the
nearest hub, router, or computer.
Connecting and Configuring the Ethernet Port
The maximum Ethernet cable length is 30 meters. If you are communicating
with your reader across a Local Area Network (LAN), connect an Ethernet
cable from your hub or router to the RJ-45 connection. See Figure 2 for
location of the connector. If you are connecting the reader directly to a PC,
you must use a crossover cable. See Note to the left.
By default, the reader is configured to use a DHCP server to obtain its IP
address and related information. In the event a DHCP server is unavailable,
the reader will boot with an IP address in the 169.254.x.x subnet.
In the absence of other readers on the same network, and if no other
network traffic is observed which references 169.254.1.1, the reader will
select that address; otherwise, it will select a random address on the
169.254.x.x subnet.
IP address settings can be changed using RST. Refer to the View or Change
the Reader’s Network Settings section in Chapter 5.

Connecting the Antennas
The maximum antenna cable length is 10 meters. Connect the antenna to
antenna port 1. If you are using additional antennas connect them to Ports
2–4.
Antennas can be connected as monostatic, bistatic, or a combination of the
two. If using bistatic configurations, these antenna pairs are defined on
ports 1/2 and 3/4.
NOTICE:
The 3M Compact RFID Reader 1000 is equipped with one (1) auxiliary RF port which is
inactive when shipped from the factory. If activated, this RF port must be properly terminated
with a 50 ohm load or a functional UHF antenna before power up. Always power down the
reader before removing an antenna or load from an RF port.
The maximum antenna cable length is 10 meters.
ATTENTION The 3M Compact RFID Reader 1000 antenna port 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 1000 reader antenna or
communication ports. Equipment failure can result if the antenna or
communication ports are subjected to ESD.
3.2.5.
Connecting Digital Inputs/Outputs
The 1000 is equipped with a general purpose digital input/output (I/O) port
that provides four optically isolated 5-24 VDC input signals and four opencollector output signals. The digital inputs can be used as general purpose
inputs or to trigger the reader for tag reading. These inputs can be
configured to provide an external read trigger from proximity sensors, photo
switches, or other devices.
The digital outputs can be used as general purpose outputs, to indicate tag
reading activity, or to indicate the reader is transmitting (RF On). The
outputs can also be configured to trigger conveyor gates or other access
control and sorting devices. For detailed information on configuring the
digital inputs and outputs refer to Chapter 7.

The digital inputs (DIN1 – DIN4) can be used as general purpose inputs or
to trigger the reader for tag reading. Unused or open digital inputs are
floating inside the reader.
To activate the input, pull it low (0 Vdc) with an external device or
connection to ground that can sink 2.5 mA. No voltage higher than +24 Vdc
or lower than 0 Vdc should ever be connected to the input. See Figure 5 for
an example of a typical motion sensor installed as a tag read trigger device.
Digital Outputs
The digital outputs (DOUT1 – DOUT4) can be used as general purpose
outputs, to indicate tag reading activity, or to indicate the reader is
transmitting (RF On). Digital outputs can be pulled high.
No voltage higher than +40 Vdc or lower than 0 Vdc should ever be
connected to a digital output. The reader activates the output by pulling it
low (0 Vdc) and can sink current such that power dissipation is ≤ 1W.
8.3.
Low Latency Digital Input/Output Operation
The 1000 is equipped with low-latency digital inputs and outputs. The
inputs (3 and 4) can be used by the modem to trigger low-latency events.
Two commands control these inputs as follows:
modem.dio.in.X.positive_level = Y -- if X goes high, it triggers Y
modem.dio.in.X.negative_level = Y -- if X goes low, it triggers Y
where Y can be:
NOOP (default)
ACTIVE_MODE

Configuring Digital I/Os
Any time the RUN_SCRIPT operation is invoked, the reader will sequence
through a maximum of 10 modem commands as follows:
modem.dio.in.X.script.num_cmds = Q
modem.dio.in.X.script.cmd1 = Z
modem.dio.in.X.script.cmd2 = Z
modem.dio.in.X.script.cmd3 = Z
modem.dio.in.X.script.cmd10 = Z
where:
Q is the number of commands. Q can be 0 to 10 (maximum 10 modem
commands).
Z can be any modem command
An event event.response.modem_dio_scripts dio_in=*,
cmdnum=*, resp=*** is generated after each modem command.
Digital outputs 3 and 4 can be driven by modem after setting the following:
dio.control.X = modem
Actions that triggered the output can be defined by:
modem.dio.out.X.op = Y
where Y can be:
NOOP (default)
END_OF_ROUND (generates a pulse at end of each inventory round)
ACTIVE_MODE (triggers high in active mode)
SCRIPT_RUNNING (triggers high when digital input io triggered

Configuring Digital I/Os
Digital Input Alarm Generation
The 1000 can be configured to generate an alarm when a digital input is
disconnected or sensor failure is detected. The alarm is triggered when the
signal level on the digital input stays in the specified state longer than the
specified alarm timeout. This behavior can be configured independently for
each digital input.
The configuration variable dio.in.alarm.logic_level. (where  is
1,2,3,4) sets whether the alarm is coupled to a input logic level of 0 (low) or
1 (high).
The configuration variable dio.in.alarm.timeout. (where  is 1,2,3,4)
sets the amount of time, in seconds, to wait for a signal state change. A
value of 0 (default) disables alarm generation.
The digital input logic level is used along with the corresponding digital input
pin timeout value to determine if an alarm (in the form of an event) should
be generated. If a timeout value is set, the input pin is monitored. If the
input pin value does not change during the timeout period AND the input
pin value matches the alarm logic level, the event
event.dio.in.alarm.timeout.n (where n is the pin number) is generated. This
alarm event generation can be helpful in alerting to the loss of digital inputs
to the reader.

NOTICE:
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 dBi, linear. Antenna having a higher gain is strictly prohibited
per FCC and Industry Canada regulations, 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 isotropically 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:

Appendix A
A.1.
Digital I/O Interface Module
Digital Inputs
The digital inputs (Terminal 1–Terminal 4) can be used as general purpose
inputs or to trigger the reader for tag reading. Unused or open digital inputs
are pulled high to +15 Vdc inside the reader. The DIO interface module has
an LED provided in series with each digital input line that lights when the
input is activated by an external source.
To activate the input, pull it low (0 Vdc) with an external device or
connection to ground that can sink 2.5 mA. No voltage higher than +15 Vdc
or lower than 0 Vdc should ever be connected to a digital input. Examples of
typical motion detectors installed as tag read trigger devices are shown in
diagrams later in this appendix.
Configuring the reader for digital input triggered reads is described in
Chapter 7 – Configuring Digital Inputs and Outputs.
A.2.
Digital Outputs
The digital outputs (Output 1 – Output 4) can be used as general purpose
outputs, to indicate tag reading activity, or to indicate the reader is
transmitting (RF On). Digital outputs are pulled high in the DIO interface
module to +12 Vdc through an LED and a series resistor. The LED is in
parallel with the output line and lights up when the output is activated by
the reader. Refer to the following figure for a typical light stack installed as a
tag read indicator.
Caution:
No voltage higher than +15 Vdc or lower than 0 Vdc should ever be connected
to a digital output. The reader activates the output by pulling it low (0 Vdc) and
can sink up to 100 mA per line.
Configuring the reader for digital output activation on tag reads is described
later in this appendix.
A.3.
Input Power and Voltage Regulator
Input power is supplied by a +15 Vdc power adapter. The onboard +12 Vdc
regulator supplies +12 Vdc power to the board and to terminal 20.
The regulator has a tolerance of +/-5% and is capable of supplying 100 mA.
The total LED draw is 10 mA. Therefore, any total current draw for the board
should not exceed 75 mA.
NOTE: Power to the reader is supplied by a separate 100-240 Vac to 24 Vdc
power adapter.

Digital I/O Interface Module
ATTENTION 3M Compact RFID Reader 1000 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 1000 antenna or
communication ports. Equipment failure can result if the antenna or
communication ports are subjected to ESD.
A.4.
Connecting External Switches and Indicators
Various motion detectors and limit switches can be connected to the reader
through the DIO interface module. For example, a typical motion sensor with
normally open (NO) and normally closed (NC) contacts can be connected as
shown in the following figure.
3M Compact RFID Reader 1000 User’s Guide
89
Appendix A
Digital I/O Interface Module
In addition to input switches, indicators such as an LED light stack can be
connected to the outputs. If using a single element light stack, connect the
device as shown in the following figure (A).
If using a multiple element light stack, such as the Allen Bradley 855T,
connect the device as shown in the following figure (B).
In the following example, the four-element light stack (Allen Bradley 855T)
must be installed with the common (0) connected to +15V and each
element (1, 2, 3, 4) connected to the appropriate output. This allows the
reader to pull the LED low.
If you are installing individual indicators or lights, connect each indicator as
shown in the following figure (A). The maximum load per light can not
exceed 100 mA.
