Introduction
The CSL RTLS solution is based on the application of time of arrival technology.
In the RTLS, an anchor is the device installed in a known position inside a zone,
normally, at the corners of the zone. The moving tag inside the zone can measure the
range to each anchor so as to obtain its absolute position inside the zone.
A Zone

Tag
In a minimum system, 4 anchors – 3 normal anchors CS5111LP and 1 master anchor
CS5113LP- are installed in a zone. However, the more the anchors are installed, the
higher the accuracy of the tag position to be obtained.
The accuracy of positioning is +/-1 meter.

1 System Component Description
1.1 CS3151
1.1.1 Product Description
CS3151 is a battery-operated active RFID tag. Three AAA size primary batteries
( either alkaline or lithium/Iron Disulfide )or Ni-MH rechargeable batteries can be
installed for normal function.
CS3151 are designed so that they can be attached to the tracking assets or simply
hanging on the moving objects, depending on the applications. There are four
holes on the corners of the tag housing that can allow the tag to be bolted firmly
on the asset. Both of the facets have light indicators so either face can be attached
to the asset.
1.1.2 Installation Procedure
When batteries are initially installed, CS3151 tags will be in listening mode.
In this mode, the CS3151 tags will listen to the commands from CS5113LP
master anchor for configuration.
Once configuration is completed, CS3151 is in the operating mode and ready
for RTLS tracking.

Federal Communication Commission Interference Statement
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to
Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful
interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency
energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to
radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular
installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can
be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference
by one of the following measures:
z Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
z Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
z Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is
connected.
z Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
FCC Caution: Any changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for
compliance could void the user's authority to operate this equipment.
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1)
This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received,
including interference that may cause undesired operation.
This device and its antenna(s) must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or
transmitter.
