I M PORTAN T This equipm ent has been t est ed, and found t o com ply w ith the lim it s for a Class
A digit al device, pursuant t o part 15 of t he FCC Rules. These lim it s are
designed t o provide reasonable prot ect ion against harm ful int erference when
the equipm ent is operat ed in a com m ercial environm ent . This equipm ent
generates, uses, and can radiat e radio frequency energy and, if not inst alled
and used in accordance with t he instruction m anual, m ay cause harm ful

The Brooks RFI D UF70 Cert um r eader is a m ultiprot ocol reader for reading
passive t ransponders in t he frequency range of 865 MHz t o 868 MHz for Europe
and 902 MHz - 928 MHz for t he FCC.
The device operates at 2 W and 1 W HF power at the ant enna j ack depending on
the r egistrat ion area.
When delivered, t he device can read and write t ransponders according t o t he EPC
Gen2 st andard. Other prot ocols can be added via soft ware updat es.
The device has several high perform ance int erfaces for com m unicat ions.
The reader has four ant enna port s for the connect ion of t ransm it t ing and
receiving ant ennas for com m unicat ing wit h RFI D t ransponders.
The device also has various int erfaces for t he connect ion wit h t he PC, depending
on t he configuration stage. Power is supplied via a 3- pin M8 connect or.

6 .5 .1 Posit ioning t h e a nt e n na
Reliable reading and writ ing depends on the dist ance and orient at ion of t he
transponder from the ant enna.
Depending on t he polarization of t he ant enna and t he design of t he t ransponder,
the orient at ion of t he t wo t oget her should be considered when a reliable
ident ificat ion m ust be guarant eed.

Once the device is connected to the power supply, t he pow er LED light s up.
ATTEN TI ON Consider the required read and writ e ranges when inst alling t he ant enna. The
reader can only be used properly if t he t ransponder is locat ed within the
individual reading/ writ ing range of t he respect ive ant enna.
I f t he t ransponder is very close t o t he ant enna, t he t ransponder m ay be
