Note:
For all interfaces except RS485 the pull-ups have to be connected to the
clock and to the data lines as well. The value of the pull-ups depends on
the current and voltage which is required for the controller input.

5.4 RS485 Interface
Most RS485 buses require termination resistors across the conductor pair. The need for
termination has to be checked for each installation. Especially for high data rates, steep
edges or long cables termination resistors are mandatory. Only both ends of the main
cable, i.e. at the first and the last device, require termination resistors, additional resistors
excessively load the drivers. The resistor value matches the cable´s differential mode
characteristic impedance (in most cases 100 − 120 Ω).
At the RS485 bus you need a controller with fail-safe biasing meaning a pull-up and a pull-
down resistor on the cable. The fail-safe biasing provides a known state in which there is no
active driver on the bus. Therefore this is essential regardless of data rates and length of cables.
Technical data (for baud rates up to 100 kBps):
Max. cable length: 1200 m (4000 feet)
Max. stub length: because of reflections stubs should be kept as
short as possible;
exceptions allow a length up to 5 m (16 feet)
Recommendation for the cable: twisted pair, cable-cross section at least
0.22 mm2 (AWG 24) differential-mode
characteristic impedance 100 − 120 Ω

By connecting the terminal to further electrical devices it is possible for the user to control if
the cover of the PRM15 housing is open or closed. The installation can be integrated into
an alarm system in order to provide protection against tampering.

The least significant bit of every digit is sent first; the fifth bit is an odd parity bit for each
group of 4 data bits.
The complete message always looks as follows:
left edge - start - data characters - end - LRC - right edge
The LRC is calculated by the following procedure:
Each of the 4 bits in the LRC character is an even parity bit of the equivalent bits in the
telegram including start and stop sentinel; i. e. the first LRC bit is an even parity bit for all
the least significant bits in the telegram and the 4th bit of the LRC is the even parity of all
the most significant bits.
The fifth bit is the odd parity of the 4 LRC bits (it is not calculated over all the parity bits).
On magstripe cards the space left and right of the information (edge) is filled with an unknown
number of zero bits (this is not a valid character as the parity is invalid). As most terminals
need some of the zero bits (known as “clocking bits” too) and do not care about additional
zero bits, deister decided to send 16 zero bits at the left edge as well as to the right edge.
V10/09/08 rf_prm15_wi_en 13
PRM15
The parity bits, the start and end characters, the LRC and the zero bits at the edge are
generated automatically by the reader.
On the one hand, they do not require space in the transponders (therefore we can encode 16
digits for the user), on the other hand this means that there will be a problem if one of the
fields is missing.
Example:
The short information “86” would be transmitted as follows:
0000000000000000-11010-00010-01101-11111-01011-0000000000000000
edge start “8” “6” stop LRC edge
A “1”-bit is transmitted as a logic low level; the falling as well as the rising edge of the clock
pulse may be used to clock in data.
6.6 Protocol for PRM15 with RS485 (no partyline protocol)
The interface is operated using 9600 baud, 8 data bits, 2 stop bits and no parity bit.
Message Format: Example

PRM15
Calculation of the parity:
LRC = 80h OR [52h Å 45h Å 30h Å 43h Å 35h Å 35h Å 37h Å 30h] = E3h
(“Å” means Exlusive-OR)

7. Installation
7.1 Easy Trim Function (ETF)
This function allows adjustment of the reader to its environmental conditions.
The ETF is a semiautomatic function for trimming the reader to its best performance.
The ETF starts after switch S1 has been pressed (see 3.1 “Rear View”, switches).
In this mode only one of the three LEDs is blinking. The individual meaning of each LED is
as follows:
Red LED: The rotatable switch (S2) must be turned to the right.
Yellow LED: The rotatable switch (S2) must be turned to the left.
Green LED: The setting of the rotatable switch (S2) matched the best performance.
In some cases there might be two settings of the switch indicating the best performance. If
there are two possible positions for the rotatable switch (S2), we recommend to select the
position before the yellow LED has been blinking.
The ETF ends after switch S1 has been pressed again. It will also end automatically after 6
minutes.
If the reader should be mounted directly on metal surfaces (distance to metal less than 2
cm), switch S3 has to be actuated before the rotatable switch S2 is being turned.
7.2 Possible Interference Sources
Warning:
It is possible that external interference sources may influence the reading
range, e.g. monitors, switching power supplies, power cables parallel to
data cables, mounting on metal surfaces etc.
LCD monitors have a minimal influence on the reading range. In particular the reader should
only be mounted on non-metallic material, such as plastic or wood. Metal screws (M6 – ISO
1207, 4762 or 7045) for mounting of the reader have an insignificant influence on the
reading range.
The unit needs to be operated with a power source with limited power
consumption according to EN 60950-1(2001) paragraph 2.5.
Note:
With growing distance between reader and interference source the
influence will decrease.
Use only linearly regulated power supplies which are offered by deister electronic GmbH.
In order to reduce the influence of external electrical interference the cable shield has to be
connected to ground (GND) of the power supply.

7.3 Mounting considerations
In order to ensure proper operation and an optimum reading/writing range take the
following precautions:
1.) Mount all readers before tuning any of the readers.
2.) Ensure that the back-to-back distance is at least 50 cm.
3.) Ensure that the vertical separation distance is at least 50 cm. A narrower vertical
separation gap may be used in case simultaneous reading/writing of a transponder by two
readers is acceptable.
Note:
●If a metal plate has been installed between the two readers, the back-
to-back distance may be ignored. However, the reading/writing range
will be reduced by approximately one third.
●Reduced transponder reading/writing range and the simultaneous
reading/writing of a transponder by two or more readers may result
if the readers are being installed less than 50 cm apart.
