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
Anchor Anchor
AnchorAnchor
Tag
In a minimum system, 4 anchors – 3 slave anchors CS5111TD/CS5112TD and 1
master anchor CS5113TD/CS5114TD- 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.

1.1 CS506
1.1.1 Product Description
CS506 is an active RFID tag operating in the 2.4GHz band. The power is
provided via the SDIO interface of platform( such as a PDA).
6
1.1.2 Installation Procedure
7
When the CS506 is plugged into the platform, it will start to operate
automatically. In the first few seconds, it is in the registration mode. Once it
is registered to a CS5113LP master anchor, it will be drawn into operating
mode immediately and ready for RTLS tracking.

1.3 CS5113TD/CS5114TD
1.3.1 Product Description
CS5113TD/CS5114TD is the RTLS master anchor( or reader). It integrates
the high gain 2.4GHz ISM band antenna and the electronics PCB into one
housing for robustness and easy installation. CS5113TD/CS5114TD has
Ethernet connectivity function to communicate with the server application.
CS5113TD/CS5114TD is also a POE PD that can allow it to be powered
through IEEE 802.3 certified PSE.

1.3.2 Installation procedure
CS5113TD/CS5114TD can be fed with DC voltage ranges from 12V to
34Vdc. The dc plug is 2.5mm locked type. Once powered on,
CS5113TD/CS5114TD is ready to communicate with server through
Ethernet port for configuration and RTLS functions.
CS5113TD/CS5114TD can also be powered by a IEEE802.3 certified PSE.
When the POE is in function, the DC adapter should be unplugged from the
DC jack.
When connected to the server via Ethernet connection, Shielded-FTP
Ethernet cables should be used to for optimal performance.

and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one of the
following measures:
_ Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
_ Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
_ Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the
receiver
is connected.
_ 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.
