Model: BF-IDM18 Operating Guide RFID Reader Purpose of the Device The BF-IDM18 RFID Reader is intended to read and write ISO15693 / ISO14443 compliant data carriers via magnetic field communication. Variability BF-IDM18 RFID Readers are available in different housings and shapes.
Model: BF-IDM18 Operating Guide RFID Reader Connecting the Device BF-IDM18 devices communicate via RS-232 with the controlling unit. To ensure reliable operation in strong EMC environments it is recommended to connect metal housings or dedicated functional ground pins directly to installations ground. The ground Connection should be short and stable. Depending on the installation situation an indirect ground connection using a RC combination may be required. For further notes concerning the installation of the processor unit please refer to the operating guide of the processor unit. BIS M RS-232 BIS M Power Supply Power + RS-232 Power
Model: BF-IDM18 Operating Guide RFID Reader Installation notes For proper operation at first a suitable mounting position has to be evaluated. The position should respect the recommended clear zones as described. Furthermore, please note that strong electrical or magnetic fields in the close environment may influence the RFID Reader. Precise information concerning clear zones and distances are available on request. For BF-IDM18 Readers are available in different housings respectively shapes different types of installation may be considered. a) Direct In-Hole mounting (Example): Picture 2: Direct In-Hole mounting (Example) b) Direct On-Wall mounting (Example): Picture 3: Direct On-Wall mounting (Example)

Model: BF-IDM18 Operating Guide RFID Reader Setup and Operation For operation of BF-IDM18 Readers a controlling unit is needed. The BF-IDM18 Readers communicate directly with the controlling unit if it is connected. Status Indicators The device will show its status using the 2 LEDs at the corners of the housing. In normal operation state the meaning of these lights are as follows: ► Green light "Power" indicates that the device is connected to the processor unit and ready to operate. ► Orange light "Tag present" indicates that a RFID tag has been detected in front of the transceiver coil.
