Picture 4-2: system information Antenna 1 / Antenna 2 If the flags shine yellow the respective antenna is used. The display corresponds to the parameter „Reader Settings: Ant“. ID valid The flag shines green if a valid tag (T) is recognized. It gives the same information as the LED detection status of ant 1 (R10) on the front panel. ID This output mask (OM) shows the decoded code. Shift This output mask (OM) indicates where the calibrator has been detected in the unit [Bin] within the delay range. S/N cal. This output mask (OM) indicates the measured signal-to-noise ratio in the unit [dB]. The signal is measured at the recognized calibrator and the noise within the range defined with the parameter „Reader Settings: Tnoise0“. Author: Clemens Zehnder File: Maintenance-SW.doc Version 3.0 e Baumer Ident AG 11 / 12 S/N Threshold This output mask (OM) indicates the S/N threshold in the unit [dB]. It corresponds to the parameter „Reader Settings: SNR“. Signal This output mask (OM) indicates the signal level of the calibrator in the unit [dB]. AF AGC This output mask (OM) indicates the value of the automatic gain control. The user doesn’t have the possibility the change this parameter. Invalid Due If this flag shines red the condition „number of equal codes out of number of measurements“ is not met. This condition is defined through the parameters „Reader Settings: Nequ and Na“. If the flag shines green the condition is met. Event Driven If this flag shines yellow the operation mode „Event Driven Mode“ is selected. The flag corresponds to the parameter „Operation Mode Settings: Mmain“. Triggered If this flag shines yellow the operation mode „Triggered Mode“ is selected. The flag corresponds to the parameter „Operation Mode Settings: Mmain“. TX ON If this flag shines yellow the reader (R) always sends out an interrogating signal. If the flag doesn’t shine the reader (R) sends out an interrogating signal only if the respective antenna (A) is triggered. The flag corresponds to the parameter „Operation Mode Setting: MTxuntrig“. Bias Code Not yet released! Nequ/Na This output mask (OM) shows the values of the parameters „Reader Settings: Nequ/Na“ an. These parameters are used for the condition „number of equal codes out of number of measurements“. Averaging This output mask (OM) indicates the value of the parameter „Reader Settings: Navg“. This parameter is used for the approximate, moving average and defines the number of measurements.

Event Driven Mode TX Off The reader (R) sends out an interrogating signal and the identification is activated only if the trigger input is on „1“. Triggered Mode TX On The reader (R) always sends out an interrogating signal. But the identification starts only if the reader (R) is triggered. Three ways to trigger: • trigger input on „1“ • via telegram • for test purpose via service PC keyboard „t“ Triggered Mode TX Off The reader (R) doesn’t send out an interrogating signal on stand by mode. If the reader (R) is triggered it sends out an interrogating signal. After a successful identification or after a certain time the reader (R) returns back to stand by mode. Three ways to trigger: • trigger input on „1“ • via telegram • for test purpose via service PC keyboard „t“ Table 4-2: Mmain / MTxuntrig Mbiased Not yet released! Author: Clemens Zehnder File: Maintenance-SW.doc Version 3.0 e Baumer Ident AG 14 / 15 Mrandom Random mode means that the reader will be switched on for reading during an allowed interval randomly. The random mode reduces the mutual influences of the readers by using different time slots. Antenna toggling is not allowed for random mode.

InitDelay is set separately for each antenna (A). For the calculation only the length of one rf cable (C) is used; i.e. the distance between reader (R) and antenna (A).

DelayRange is to be set separately for each antenna (A). Please note that you only change the parameter for the internal decoding. This means that only tags(T) are decoded which are within the limits defined by the parameters InitDelay and DelayRange. These parameters don’t influence the maximum reachable reading range of the system. Author: Clemens Zehnder File: Maintenance-SW.doc Version 3.0 e Baumer Ident AG Range DelayRange [m] [bin] 10 21 / 22 Table 4-5: DelayRange Example: If you want to cover the following reading range: • Ant 1: 2m • Ant 2: 5m Set the following values: ⇒ DelayRange1: 2 ⇒ DelayRange2: 3 Ant There are three possibilities:: • Ant=0 both antennas are alternatively active • Ant=1 only antenna 1 is active • Ant=2 only antenna 2 is active Please note that in triggered mode the trigger event has a higher priority than the parameter „Ant“. This means that if antenna 2 is triggered at parameter settings „Ant = 1“, antenna 2 nevertheless starts a decoding. Channel This parameter defines the starting frequency of the ramp in order to adapt it to the tag medium frequency. Parameter Start-frequency 2402 MHz 2403 MHz ... ... 30 2430 MHz picture 4-3: channel AFAGC This parameter defines the NF AGC attenuation. Normally it is the best way to set this parameter at „0“, that means that NF AGC works automatically. Nnoisebin This parameter defines the number of Bins used for noise average left and right from reflector slot. Author: Clemens Zehnder File: Maintenance-SW.doc Version 3.0 e Baumer Ident AG 22 / 23 SNR This parameter defines the threshold for the S/N- signal. If the current S/N ratio of the calibrator is higher than „SNR“, the S/N- signal is accepted. Skizze DSNRCal This parameter defines by how much the calibrator has to be stronger than the threshold „SNR“. DMultiTag This parameter defines by how much the signal peaks have to be stronger than other peaks possibly located in the same area. Navg This parameter defines the number of averages with the method of approximate moving averaging. This parameter changes the dynamic of the system decisively. A high value reduces short-time noise signals but it also makes the system slow. Si = (Navg- 1)xS i-1 + S Navg Legend: Si: averaged spectrum S: new spectrum Navg: weighting constant; range 1 ... 255 Nequ/Na Theses two parameters define the number of equal codes „Nequ“ out of a number of measurements „Na“. Entab The tag (T) contains a fix code per definition. The linking of the fix code to an application specific identification number can be made within the reader (R) with the help of a look up table Ntab = 0 Look up Table not activated Ntab = 1 Look up Table activated The look up table is set up with the help of a text editor and saved in the working directory.

If you want to use the digital outputs, please follow the table 4-10. To set the parameters for the time function in the chosen operating mode, please follow also the table 4-10. We gladly advise you on defining the parameters. Auxmode1 / Auxmode2 There are four ways for the digital output to forward a valid identification: • Auxmode=0 transparent • Auxmode=1 filtered This filter function decides whether the current code N is unequal to the code N-1. In combination with the time constant Tauxf it is possible to define the duration after which the same code can set the digital output again without a different tag (T) having passed the identification point in the meantime. • Auxmode=2 Host triggered A higher-order system controls the digital output via telegram. • Auxmode=3 ID acknowledge If you use only one antenna (Reader settings: Ant=1 or Ant=2) then you have the possibility to indicate when the host answers the data telegram. The answer telegram is called acknowledge telegram. Ant Auxmode1 Auxmode2 1 or 2 1 or 2 Table 4-5: ID acknowledge Using only Ant1: When the acknowledge arrives within the duration specified by the parameter ID_Msg_Timeout, then the digital output AUX_OUT2 will be „ON“ for the duration specified by the parameter Tdoff2. Using only Ant2: When the acknowledge arrives within the duration specified by the parameter ID_Msg_Timeout, then the digital output AUX_OUT1 will be „ON“ for the duration specified by the parameter Tdoff1. Auxfunct1 / Auxfunct2 There are two different timer functions for the digital outputs: • Auxfunct=0 Impulse • Auxfunct=1 Delayed turn-off Tdon1 / Tdon2 This parameter defines the ON delay of the chosen timer function. Tdoff1 / Tdoff2 This parameter defines the impulse duration (Auxfunct=0) or the OFF delay (Auxfunct=1). Tauxf1 / Tauxf2 This parameter defines the time constant of the function „Auxmode“. Auxinv1 / Auxinv2 The output can be inverted.

Use this diagram to assess the signal of the tag and the noise of the environment. Frequency Domain Signal The diagram indicates the frequency domain signal after the FFT1. Frequencies between 1.25 kHz and 10.625 kHz are shown. These frequencies correspond to a propagation delay time of the response signal from 500 ns up to 4250 ns. The length of the y-axle corresponds to 128 dB (8 bit resolution). The diagram shows on the left a calibrator amplitude and then three signal amplitudes. The left of the two vertical marks, which are defined by the parameters InitDelay and DelayRange, is at the calibrator amplitude and the right at the last signal amplitude. The range within which the noise for the S/N ratio is measured is marked in red.

Customer specific applications are available. • The reader logs on as a simple input device with the ID-Code 0x02. • The data bus width is defined as 1 word (16 bit). • The coding of the normal codes is handled with packed BCD, i.e. 4 bit per position for the digits 0...9, 4 positions (0000...9999). • Messages, which don’t contain any codes, are labeled with a hexadecimal number higher than 9 in the very highest position. The lowest three BCD-positions contain a respective message code. • In the initial state the reader (R) sends out the message 0xF000 (READY). • After the tag (T) has been triggered by an external signal it sends out for one time the identified code or the message 0xF001 (NO_READ). After the next InterBus-S cycle it once sends out the READY-Signal one time only until the next trigger arrives.

Connect the hardware components and switch on the reader (R) as described in the user’s manual „2.45 GHz Ident System Hardware“. 2. Install the Service Software Basic (S01 as described in chapter 2! 3. Build up the test arrangement as described in chapter 5.1.2! 4. Put in the configuration parameter as described in chapter 5.1.3! 5. Press the key „F5“! 6. If all the steps have been carried out successfully you will see the following picture on the screen of the service PC: Picture 5-2: successful identification supplied by the Service Software Basic (S01) Advice! One standard combination of the pages of the service software is stored under the key "F5". Feel free to change this set-up in file "OISW.INI".

Picture 5-3: control picture identification 1. The identification is made with the selected antenna (A). If not: Correct the parameter „Ant“. 2. The operation mode corresponds to the one that you really want. If not: Correct the parameters „Mmain“ und „MTxuntrig“. 3. The left mark is at the calibrator. If not: Correct the parameters „InitDelay“ und „DelayRange“. 4. The right mark is at the last signal peak. If not: Use the tags (T) which have been configured for your system. 5. S/N is higher than S/N Threshold. If not: Check the presence and the orientation of the tag (T). Optimize the whole arrangement; reading range, angles Reduce the parameter „SNR“; it is a matter of fact that this may reduce the reading security. Author: Clemens Zehnder File: Maintenance-SW.doc Version 3.0 e Baumer Ident AG 60 / 61 6. The ID Valid Flag shines green if the identification is successful. If not: Repeat steps 1 - 6. 7. The number in the output mask (OM) corresponds to the current tag (T). If not: The tag structure settings (configuration file) doesn’t correspond to your tags (T). You have the possibility to change the tag structure with the Service Software Development. 8. The reading security is sufficient. If not: Raise the parameters „Nequ“ und „Na“. As a matter of fact this will extend the internal decoding time and reduce the maximum possible speed of the objects which ought to be identified. 9. The reader status of ant 1 (R09) on the front panel shines green. 10. The detection status of ant 1 (R10) on the front panel shines green. 11. Press „d“ and you will see the outgoing data telegram at the service interface. Picture 5-1: control picture data 12. Press „d“ 13.
