Low Frequency Exciters Elpas Installation Guide Active RFID Solutions Part Numbers: 5-RLE00125, 5-RLE00125-1, 5-RLE00125-2 General Overview LF Transmissions Elpas Low Frequency (LF) Exciters from Visonic Transmission Rate: Continuous bursts of LF transmissions (each about 12ms in duration). Technologies are supervised*, short-range, wireless Supervision RF Transmissions emitters that add pin point detection functionality to TM EIRIS based RFID installations. Elpas Low Frequency (LF) Exciters can be installed surface mounted on walls or on fixed or in dropped (false) ceilings. Elpas LF Exciters are deployable in either a basic stand-a-lone configuration designed to cover normal size single doorways or in a master–slave configuration (1 master and 1 slave unit) for accurate, synchronized coverage of large indoor, open complex-shaped areas. Elpas LF Exciters emit harmless, adjustable low power, low frequency; sphere shaped magnetic (125 KHz) fields up to 3m (10ft) in radius. The emitted fields are user tunable so that they can precisely cover any indoor doorway or restricted entrance/exit area. As a result, whenever an active Elpas RFID tag or badge (i.e. ETC, WTA, Baby Tag, Personnel Badge) enters the magnet field; the corresponding LF Exciter automatically triggers the moving RFID Transmission Rate: 1 RF transmission (about 2ms in duration), 10 seconds apart. Transmitted Message Type: 433.9 MHz Elpas Tag (badge) protocol including ID LF Exciter code (ID code = OOODXX where XX is ID number of the LF exciter Installation Guidelines LF Exciters generate an omni directional magnetic radiation pattern that is almost spherical in area. As a consequence ceiling mounted Exciters may result in the LF penetration of adjacent floors and rooms. Each stand alone or master LF Exciter has a detection range up to a 10ft/ 3m radius. For wider area coverage, enhanced detection capability or direction determination a master/slave configuration should be used. device to transmit special data messages (including the Exciter ID code). The messages are immediately received and relayed by strategically located Elpas RF readers for monitoring, alert notification and subsequent event logging. * LF Exciters (from hardware Version C) transmit operational RF status messages plus output power trouble alert messages configurable and supervised via EIRIS software. CAUTION: It is important that you read, understand, and follow the instructions in this document. If you have questions, call your local Visonic Technologies support representative. This document is intended for trained system integrators, field service or maintenance engineers that need to troubleshoot problems in the EIRIS system, or configurations and processes. Main Circuit Board Components Page 1 of 8 DTA03N01_V13 Optimizing Performance • General Placement: Position LF Exciters at least 30cm (12 inches) from any metal barriers (such as signs/pillars/beams) in any direction. • Single Doors: To thoroughly cover an exit without penetrating excess areas, the LF Exciter should be mounted on a wall, at waist height, next to the door. Additionally, the LF field should be adjusted to cover only the width of the door. • Double Doors: A master/slave configuration may be used by mounting the master exciter to the right of the double doors and the slave to the left of the doors. Placement Warning • LF Exciters may not be mounted on metallic surfaces. • LF Exciters must be mounted as far away as possible from all other pieces of equipment that may emit magnetic fields (such as large electrical motors, HVAC and refrigeration compressors, etc.). Low Frequency Exciters - Installation Guide _________________________________________________________________________________________ The key setup and configuration circuitry components used by the standalone or master RF Exciter are detailed below Unit ID Number DIP Switches Used for manually setting the unit ID number of a master or standalone LF Exciter. Output Power Control Potentiometer Used for manually tuning the size of generated output detection field Power Source Interface Female RJ11 connector to external 24 VDC nominal power source via the EJB junction box LF Master/Slave Interface Female RJ45 connector to LF Exciter slave unit (master/slave configuration) Power from an external source (24 VDC nominal ± 30%; 200mA) is supplied to a standalone or master LF Exciter via the EJB junction box. A bus topology network may be branched for LF Exciters by connecting only the power connectors as shown here. Setting the ID Number of the LF Exciter Each Stand-alone or Master LF Exciter must be assigned a unique ID number to make it possible for EIRIS to recognize the device. Locate the DIP switches on the circuit board of the exciter and set the switch settings as required. Use a scientific calculator or in EIRIS, the General tab of the reader configuration for to determination the correct switch settings. Refer to the table below for unit numbers to avoid using: NO INVALID LF EXCITER ID (HEX) I NVALID LF EXCITER ID (BIN) 13 35 00110101 4B 01001011 4D 01001101 5C 01011100 B8 10111000 D5 11010101 DC 11011100 00010011 CAUTION: Set the DIP switch before powering up the LF Exciter. Never change the DIP switch settings once the LF Exciter is powered up. Wiring the LF Exciter Page 2 of 8 DTA03N01_V13 For connecting a standalone or master LF Exciter to a EJB junction box, use an unshielded 6 conductor 26 AWG solid cable crimped at both ends with a RJ11 (6P6C) connector. Ensure that the correct order of the wires is maintained as shown here. +V -V DATA DATA -V +V Low Frequency Exciters - Installation Guide _________________________________________________________________________________________ To wire a Master/Slave configuration, use an unshielded 4 conductor 26 AWG solid cable crimped at both ends with a RJ45 (8P8C) connector as illustrated below: Flush Mounting to Drop Ceilings or Interior Hollow Walls 1. Separate the LF Exciter from its base by pressing one of the snaps (identified by a square hole) using a small screwdriver. 2. Then cut a 5 inch (12.7 cm) diameter mounting hole in the drop ceiling or the hollow wall where the LF Exciter is to be flush mounted. 3. Pull the 6P6C power cable (for master slave configurations the additional 8P8C interface cable as well) trough the cable entry hole of the RDR1 mounting bracket and the LF exciter base. 4. Insert the RDR1 mounting bracket through the mounting hole and position it carefully so it is firmly supported. 5. Insert the base of the exciter into the mounting hole. Next, screw the base to the RDR1 mounting bracket place using the 2 supplied screws. Ensure that the screw heads are recessed inside the screw holes. If not the LF Exciter will not close properly and damage may occur. 6. Connect the power and interface cables to the LF Exciter; set the DIP switch and adjust the units' output power. Then, insert the LF Exciter back into its base. 7. Finally walk test the LF Exciter using either an Elpas LF Meter or an active Elpas Tag/Badge to verify that the placement and output power of the device is correct. When the Master LF Exciter (from hardware Version C, Revision A-1) senses that the Slave has been disconnected, the B1 bit on the RF supervision transmission is set to Down. Surfacing Mounting to Solid Ceilings or Walls Page 3 of 8 DTA03N01_V13 1. Separate the LF Exciter from its base by pressing one of the snaps (identified by a square hole) using a small screwdriver. 2. Using the base of the exciter as a template mark the locations of the two mounting holes and the cable pass through. 3. Drill holes at the marked areas to accommodate the required mounting hardware and the diameter of the power and interface cables.
