Both 230VAC 50Hz and 120VAC 60Hz main power can be used. For 230VAC 50Hz main line, input power should be 150mA, and for 120VAC 60Hz main line, input power should be 250mA. Make sure your anti theft system is connected to an electrical system complying with the national regulations in force. Recommended input power of MONO system is 15 VAC 800mA. Only 1 antenna can be connected to the PSA provided. Figure 1.3 Cabling shall always be running on the floor inside embedded ducts or in a groove under the rugs, under floating flooring, in tiling joints or under a sill nosing, as required. Cabling acts as an antenna. Under no circumstances shall the cable be allowed to run through the ceiling or along antennas. Page 7 of 19 SIDEP 1.4 TEST RANGE The type of antenna to be selected is a function of size of the tag and antenna spacing. The table provides a reference for tag size versus maximum allowable spacing. However, the spacing values shown on this table will significantly decrease as the operating environment becomes harsher or surrounded with such interfering environment as steel structures, power lines located close to the antennas. A walkabout on site test (installation procedures refer) will testify of the maximum allowable spacing. Tag Type MONO 410 tag 0.75 m Mini Hard tag 1.0 m Figure 1.4 410tag 0.75M 410tag 0.75M Mini HT 1.0M Mini HT 1.0M Page 8 of 19 SIDEP 2. GENERAL INSTALLATION 2.1 IMPLEMENTING ANTENNAS. The Transceiver antenna (MONO) selection of location shall be a function of the stores layout. The rear field is wider on transceiver system therefore removes all furniture and hangers likely to contain anti-theft tags close to the set-up, a minimum distance is recommended between antennas and shelf in retail (1.5 to 1.8m). Figure 2.1. Detection zone IMPORTANT NOTE Prior to commencing the work (threading of cables, marking of locations, floor drilling for antenna attachments…), perform a walkabout test on site in order to assess the environmental impact. Depending on test outputs, the permanent location of the antennas will be decided upon jointly with the client. Reduce the antenna spacing whenever the operational environment does not provide satisfactory results. Once the cabling is embedded and antennas are anchored to the ground, it becomes a very difficult/costly and even an impossible job to change antenna locations. Hence, this walkabout on site test is of a major importance before commencing any installation work. The walkabout test will make it possible for the fitter/installer to figure out any interference arising from the environment. (subsection Interference Sources refers). 2.2 INTERFERENCE SOURCES. Mains power generates interferences because of numerous parallel connected appliances and devices (motors, spot lights, fluorescent lighting, etc…) and Page 9 of 19 SIDEP therefore, a dedicated line shall be provided directly from the switching board. This line shall be installed by an approved installer. A number of switching power supplies as used e.g., in Electronic Information Systems (EIS) operate at a harmonic frequency similar to that of the EAS SYSTEM and may cause system jamming and therefore, under no circumstances should the power supply unit be connected to a line backed up by an Uninterrupted Power Supply (UPS) (rectified current). Metallic masses generate interference because of system absorbed and reverberated electromagnetic waves. Avoid installing antennas close to such metallic masses while keeping to a minimum distance of 60 cm. In case of implementing problems because of the site configuration, perform testing in order to determine the best location. Metal frames or guide bars sometimes behave like resonance circuits tuned to the system frequency. Install antennas remotely from these structures or fit bonding braids in order to cancel resonance phenomena. Steel frames of doors sometimes behave in the same manner. Install antennas remotely from such structures or fit shunts or bonding braids in order to cancel resonance phenomena. Position the system away from steel frame door(s), then open and close door(s) and check the LED level bar for evidence of distorted signals (tag signal). Defective fluorescent lighting, e.g. neon type, generates interference because of permanent DC energizing on switching on. Please feel free to have this type of lighting switched off and compare results with the LED level bar. Some transformers used in this type of lighting appliances may be defective and cause similar interference. All electromagnetic field generating appliances typically incorporate transformers, motors or mobile magnets, including: fluorescent neon tubes, halogen quartz bulbs, cashiers conveyor belts, etc. Power leads may also be a cause for interference. Prevent antennas from standing too close to electrical leads. Move antennas and perform various tests to assess the best location. Page 10 of 19 SIDEP Selection of Functioning Modes with DIP Switch: Switch Number Switch 1 Switch2 Switch 3 Switch 4 Switch 5 Switch 6 Switch 7 Switch 8 Description Cable Synchro Setting ON: Master board OFF: Slave board Power Synchro Mode ON: Power synchronization(up to 4 systems on same power line) OFF: Power synchronization(up to 2 systems on separated power line) Synchro Increment – 5th systems ON: Over 4 multiple systems synchronized by cable, every 5th system synchronized should have be on OFF: At most 4 systems synchronized Deactivator Synchro Mode ON: Pulse Deactivator (SPD82) is synchronized by cable Master board when cable synchronization OFF: No deactivator Tag/Noise Level Mode ON: Normal sensitivity – Low noise environment OFF: Low sensitivity – High noise environment Sensitivity reduction Mode ON: Standard System Sensitivity OFF: Low Sensitivity Automatic Level Mode ON: The sensitivity level is automatically regulated according to environment noise variation OFF: The sensitivity is set by VR5 Deactivable Labels Protection Mode ON: The transmission power level will automatically decrease once a label is detected in order to avoid deactivation of the label by the EAS system OFF: Transmission power level Stable (recommended for hard tag only system). Default setting: on off off off on on off off Page 11 of 19 SIDEP 4. Basic Adjustment Procedure: Basic adjustments procedure should be sufficient to set all necessary parameters. Other advanced adjustments and modification should be performed by experienced technicians. All other advanced parameters are set at factory and in most case the basic adjustments method below would be enough to optimized the MONO system performance. 4.1 Single System Adjustment □ Set Switch 7 in position OFF (Automatic Level Mode Off). □ Press SW1 to reset system. □ Wait 1 minute for DSP to reboot. □ Find the best position of antenna (lower LED Noise Bar Level). □ Refer to previous instructions to find source of disturbance if the noise level is high. □ If necessary reduce VR5 to have less than 4 LED on (only green Led should be on and 1 orange blinking). □ Put back Switch 7 in Position : On □ Press SW1 to reset system. □ Wait 1 minutes for DSP to reboot. 5. Multiple System Synchronization There are 3 different ways to synchronized multiple systems. As much as possible try to use the external Synchro cable RG174 to synchronized multiple systems. This method provides the most reliable synchronization. DS2 will be lighted. Page 12 of 19 SIDEP 5.1 External Synchronization Mode with cable (up to 25 systems by 230V 50Hz main power or up to 25 systems 120V 60Hz main power) : The Master system is usually the antenna closest to the 230V 50Hz or 120V 60Hz power plug. Connect The RG174 synchronization cable from Synchronize Out connector (master board) to Synchronize In (Slave board) and to the next Slave system. Switch 1 should be in position ON for master board and OFF for slave board. When properly connected, the EXT SYNC LED of all the slave antenna boards should be lighting excluding the master system’s LED which should be off. Please ensure the cable is connected properly in polarity. Else the slave systems’ Ext Sync LED is not lighting after connection. If the EXT SYNC LED is twinkling, turn the VR1 of previous board to make the EXT SYNC LED stable. Turn the VR1 to make sure each board has no more than two noise LEDs. If more than 5 systems are synchronized by cable, at each 5th system, the Switch 3 (Synchronize Increment) should be in position ON. 5.2 Supply Synchronization Mode (up to 4 systems by 230V 50Hz main power or up to 4 systems 120V 60Hz main power) : Turn VR1 to make sure that its noise level is lowest. This synchronization is up to support 4 systems on same power line or 2 systems on separated power line. 5.3 Deactivator Synchronisation For Sidep Pulse deactivator SDP82 the EAS systems should be synchronized: Trimmer method: Page 13 of 19 SIDEP If less than 4 systems/deactivators are installed you may be able to synchronized using only the SYN trimmer on SDP82 to set each devise with a different time pulse. External Synchro Method: For more than 4 systems/deactivators using a RG174 synchro cable is recommended: □ Press SW1 to reset systems. □ The green LED on the deactivator should be ON. □ If green LED on the deactivator is bilking, change the SYN trimmer adjustment on the deactivator. 6. TROUBLE SHOOTING • False alarms / No detection / Orange/Red LED Noise Bar Level is blinking fast and with regular intervals: the most like reason is that another 8.2 MHz EAS system is installed nearby: □ Put Switch 7 in position ON □ Reset System □ Turn SYN trimmer to find the best position • Sporadic false alarms but with good detection and low LED noise Level: This problem maybe caused by an external electrical disturbance or resonant object nearby (metal/swing door…). □ Turn the SYNC trimmer to find a better position. □ If the problem persists set the Switch 5 in the position OFF □ If the problem persists, set Switch 2 in the position ON and change SYNC trimmer position to reduce random noise burst. If the problem persists, refer to the pre-installation instruction to find the possible source of disturbance. (Electrical interference, resonant object…) • False alarm when touching antenna. □ Look for possible resonant object □ Change Antenna adjustment with Antenna Gain Adjustable capacitor. □ If problem persists, set switch DIP 5 in the position OFF. □ Reset system. □ If problem persists switch the system to manual level control mode (switch 7 position OFF) □ Press SW1 to reset system. Page 14 of 19 SIDEP □ Reduce the system sensitivity with VR5 until this problem stops. □ Then switch the system back to the automatic level control mode (switch 7 position ON) □ Press SW1 to reset system. □ The detection will decrease, but functioning will be more stable and false alarm less frequent. • External Synchro Mode is not working even if cables are properly connected (EXT SYN LED ON except Master System): A slave system must have been powered on before its Master. □ Switch off all systems □ Switch on each system individually and in order starting from the Master system. • Labels are deactivated when passing near the MONO system: □ Set Switch 8 in the position ON. □ Press SW1 to reset system To protect the label against deactivation due to high transmission Level, the system will automatically decrease the output Transmission Level when a tag is detected System reaction may be slower and detection performance reduced. 7. Advanced adjustment of system parameters 7.1 LEDs DS11-18: Press the SW2 button while holding it , you can see the signal number corresponding the list below. When you release it you can see the value. Number of LEDs being ON simulates the output of a particular signal . • • • • • • • • input signal (default after powering the system on) filtered input signal level of resonance caused by tags, metal construction, loops of wire, etc) resultant input signal signal detection on each frequency (there are 8 frequencies transmitted) not yet used not yet used indication of sensitivity level reduction in automatic regime (DIP 7 ON). (Example: 6 LEDs ON…80% of maximum or reduction by 20%) Page 15 of 19 SIDEP 8. Connections from MONO board to Antenna BUZZER LAMP Figure 8.1.
