OBID i-scan® Installation ID ISC.ANT310310-A FEIG ELECTRONIC GmbH Page 5 of 22 M90401-1e-ID-B.doc E N G L I S H 2 Features of the antenna ID ISC.ANT310/310 The Antenna ID ISC.ANT310/310 is a single-loop antenna with manual tuning board. The antenna has been factory calibrated for the most applications. After having been installed in other surroundings, the antenna may be re-tuned for a optimal performance with the help of jump-ers. In combination with various reader of the Company FEIG ELECTRONIC GmbH, the antenna is suitable for many Long- and Mid-Range applications with reading performance. At a transmitting power of 8 W and a transponder in ISO Card size, a reading range of 60-70 cm is possible. Furthermore, it can be used with other readers having a transmitter frequency of 13.56 MHz and an output impedance of 50 Ω. The preferred orientation of a transponder is parallel to the antenna’s surface. The right position to obtain a maximum range would be above the centre of the antenna’s plane. Due to its robust design, in conjunction with the protection class IP65, it is for almost all applications. Typical application are book and video libraries, document tracking, Label programming, logistic application at conveyors and sorting systems, access control, people identification and collection of data in the office or in the Industry.
OBID i-scan® Installation ID ISC.ANT310/310-A FEIG ELECTRONIC GmbH Page 6 of 22 M90401-1e-ID-B.doc 3 Installation and Wiring The antenna has been especially designed for installation with holding devices made of non-conductive materials (e.g. plastic or wood). It is suitable for both indoor as well as outdoor use. In order to facilitate the mounting, there are four drill holes (d=5,6 mm) with a spacing of 243 mm at the inside of the antenna. For attachment, we recommend a wood screw size 5 mm (like DIN 96) or machine screw (like DIN 7985) with a pen head of minimum ∅ 10 mm till maximum ∅ 12 mm. The maximum tightening torque of the free turning screws are 2 Nm. Please keep a minimum distance of 5 cm to all metal parts! Even a distance lower than 30 cm to metal parts will lead to a reduction of the reading range. See chapter 4.7 Antenna tuning Figure 1: Installation drawing ID ISC.ANT310/310 All measurements in mm. For antenna tuning open the housing by removing the four screws at the cover. The maximum tightening torque for the cover screws is 0,7 Nm – 0,9 Nm. Antenna opening (Cover)
OBID i-scan® Installation ID ISC.ANT310310-A FEIG ELECTRONIC GmbH Page 7 of 22 M90401-1e-ID-B.doc E N G L I S H 4 Start-up 4.1 Project Notes The antenna is connected directly to the reader with the help of the connecting cable and the SMA-plug. Figure 2: Wiring diagram – reader and antenna The antenna ID ISC.ANT310/310 permit the detection of the transponder inside the detection area. The preferred orientation of a transponder is parallel to the antenna’s surface. The right position to obtain a maximum range would be above the centre of the antenna’s plane. Exactly on the an-tenna wire the read range drops to zero. In order to suppress possible interference’s, in the frequency area of 20-100MHz, the reader ID ISC.LR2000 and ID ISC.MR200 is equipped with two respectively one torrid cores. One of these torrid cores must be integrated into the antenna connection cable. For this purpose, the coaxial cable has to be pulled through the core 4 times and has to be located as close as possible to the core. The maximum distance between reader and torrid core should be 10 cm. Figure 3: Assembly of the torrid core at the coaxial cable For industrial environments, to suppress interference’s in the frequency area of 1-10MHz, we rec-ommend to insert the device ID ISC.ANT.PS-B in the mode transformer between reader and an-tenna. Figure 4: Wiring diagram - reader with transformer and antenna Note: . The maximum tightening torque for the SMA connector is 0,45 Nm.

OBID i-scan® Installation ID ISC.ANT310/310-A FEIG ELECTRONIC GmbH Page 8 of 22 M90401-1e-ID-B.doc Please also observe the following recommendations: • Up to a distance of 50 cm, the antenna cable should always be lead away from the antenna vertically and installed permanently. • In order to obtain an optimum reading range, the antenna connection cable should not be shortened or extended. If an extension is absolutely necessary, please use a 50 Ω cable with a length of 2λ (half the wavelength at 13,56 MHz, RG58=7,20 m). However, this may lead to a minor sensitivity reduction (approx. 2 cm reading range / extension). • Please keep a minimum distance of 30 cm between the antenna cable and all parallel, power cables. After the installation has been completed, an operational check can be performed with the help of the reader and a smart label. With a transmitting power of 4W and a label size of 75 mm x 46 mm (ISO-card size) the reading range in the centre of the antenna should be approx. 50 cm – 60 cm. Otherwise, the following points should be reviewed: • Is the antenna installed near metal? • What is the difference between Umax-Umin of the Noise Level? The difference of the Noise Level should be less than 20 mV (see ISO Start, Test & Measurement). • Is the matching of the antenna of the impedance to the impedance of 50 Ω okay? • Can be checked with the help of an SWR – Meter. See Chapter 4.6 How to measure the voltage standing wave ratio (VSWR). • Do the reader signal a “RF-Warning”? See reader command “[0x6E] Reader Diagnostic” • The distance from tag to tag should be greater than 8 cm. If the tag to tag distance is reduced, losses at the read range can be expected. This applies in particular to distances under 5 cm. • If multiple gates are operated at the same time at a distance of less than 8 m, the Readers must by synchronized. Otherwise, losses at the read range can be expected See Application Note: “Synchronizing RFID Long Range Readers using the Reader Synchroni-zation Interface” (N11200-3e-ID-B.pdf).
OBID i-scan® Installation ID ISC.ANT310310-A FEIG ELECTRONIC GmbH Page 9 of 22 M90401-1e-ID-B.doc E N G L I S H 4.2 Configuring the Reader in accordance with national RF regulations Configuration of the RFID Readers and the maximum transmitting power of the antennas are affected mainly by the country-specific RF regulations. For the entire EU the limits are set forth in the R&TTE Directive and EN 300 330. In North America this is regulated by FCC Part 15 (USA) and by the RSS-210 (Canada). The ID ISC.ANT310/310 antenna with the reader ID ISC.LR2000, ID ISC.MR200 and ID.ISC.MR101, when used as intended, complies with the basic requirements of Article 3 and the other relevant clauses of the R&TTE Directive 1999/5/EG of March 99. This means that operation in the 29 EU countries and the EFTA countries (EU countries plus Switzerland, Norway and Iceland) is possible with a maximum field strength of 42 dBµA/m at 10 m distance (RF Output power = 4W). RF approval in accordance with EN 300 330 is still possible in all 46 CEPT countries. The CEPT countries are: Albania (ALB), Andorra (AND), Austria (AUT), Azerbaijan (AZE), Belarus (BLR), Belgium (BEL), Bulgaria (BUL), Bosnia and Herzegovina (BIH), Croatia (HRV), Cyprus (CYP), Czech Republic (CZE), Denmark (DNK), Estonia (EST), Finland (FIN), France (F), Germany (D), Greece (GRC), Hungary (HNG), Iceland (ISL), Ireland (IRL), Italy (I), Latvia (LVA), Liechtenstein (LIE), Lithuania (LTU), Luxembourg (LUX), Malta (MLT), Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia (MKD), Moldova (MDA), Monaco (MCO), Netherlands (HOL), Norway (NOR), Poland (POL), Portugal (POR), Romania (ROU), Russian Federation (RUS), San Marino (SMR), Slovak Republic (SVK), Slovenia (SVN), Spain (E), Sweden (S), Switzerland (SUI), Turkey (TUR), Ukraine (UKR), United Kingdom (G), Vatican City (CVA) and Yugoslavia. The following restrictions are in effect (as of: October 2009): 1. Outside the EFTA countries RF approval must in all cases be applied for. The existing measuring protocols in accordance with EN 300 330 are generally sufficient. To use the antenna ID ISC.ANT3100/310at a RF output power of 8W a radio license according ERC/REC 70-03 Annex 9 Vol. F1 is necessary (operating with a maximum field strength of 60 dBµA/m at 10 m)! The following restrictions are in effect (as of October 2009): 1. For EU and EFTA countries an additional notification is required in each country. 2. Outside the EFTA countries RF approval must in all cases be applied for. The existing measuring protocols in accordance with EN 300 330 are generally sufficient. When placing the antennas in service, the systems integrator must ensure that the prescribed mounting instructions are followed, the necessary Reader settings are made and permissible limits according to the national regulations are not exceeded.
OBID i-scan® Installation ID ISC.ANT310/310-A FEIG ELECTRONIC GmbH Page 10 of 22 M90401-1e-ID-B.doc 4.3 The influence of the transmitting power on the reading range The antenna’s working range is dependent on the antenna itself, the reader, the transponder and the adjusted transmitting power of the reader. Due to the fact that the transponder gets its energy from the magnetic field produced by the antenna and that the field intensity decreases at higher distances, the radiated transmitting power has strong influence on the range. Figure 5: Reading range of the antenna ID ISC.ANT310/310 in dependence on the RF power Read range of two typical transponder, size 46 x 75 mm2, over the centre of the antenna, parallel orientation to the antenna. A transmitting power of more than 8 W could, in dependence on the ambient temperature, heat up the antenna and may even destroy it.
OBID i-scan® Installation ID ISC.ANT310310-A FEIG ELECTRONIC GmbH Page 11 of 22 M90401-1e-ID-B.doc E N G L I S H 4.4 The influence of metal on the reading range A magnetic field cannot penetrate metal or other magnetically conductive materials. The course of the lines of electric flux and the inductivity of the antenna is changed and has therefore a consider-able influence on the reading range. Furthermore, the field is weakened by the mutual inductance response the eddy current within the metal. The change of inductivity may often be compensated with the help of the (re-)tuning electronics. Figure 6 illustrates the influence of a metal plate on the antenna with (upper line) and without re-tuning (lower line). Figure 6: Reading range* in dependence on the distance to metal Read range of a typical transponder, size 46 x 75 mm2, over the centre of the antenna, parallel orientation to the antenna. If metal parts cannot be avoided close to the antenna, please observe the following: • The minimum distance between metal and antenna is 5 cm. A distance up to 30 cm will lead to a considerable reduction in the reading range. At a distance of 50 cm to metal parts, there will be almost no influence to be measured. • Metal parts must not form closed loops or electric circuits. These have to be electrically sepa-rated at one point. • Metal parts in close vicinity to the antenna have to be grounded in star configuration with a good HF-connection.
OBID i-scan® Installation ID ISC.ANT310/310-A FEIG ELECTRONIC GmbH Page 12 of 22 M90401-1e-ID-B.doc 4.5 The influence of the noise level on the antenna’s working range Interferences have to be largely avoided, so that the smart label may be read by the receiver even at low signal levels. The amplitude of the interference levels can be found out at reader ID ISC.LR200 with the help of the noise levels. Critical are not the absolute measured values, but rather the difference between Umax-Umin. This has been simulated at 4W and represented graphically in the following figure. Figure 7: Reading range in dependence on the noise levels Read range of two typical transponder, size 46 x 75 mm2, over the centre of the antenna, parallel orientation to the antenna. The difference of the noise levels (Umax - Umin) should be less than 20 mV. Possible reasons for excessive noise levels: • Bad (HF-)connections between reader and antenna. • Improper cable layout between antenna and reader • Badly tuned antenna • Interfering signals of other electronic appliances or transmitting stations. • Interfering signals on the reader’s power supply line. • Interfering signals coming from other cables close to the cables leading to and away from the reader. • Metal parts close to the antenna
OBID i-scan® Installation ID ISC.ANT310310-A FEIG ELECTRONIC GmbH Page 13 of 22 M90401-1e-ID-B.doc E N G L I S H 4.6 How to measure the voltage standing wave ratio (VSWR) If an antenna has been tuned, the question is: how good is the adjustment between reader and antenna? In this case, the VSWR –meter is a very useful tool. This device measures the ratio be-tween supplied and reflected energy. A VSWR of up to 1.3 :1 is considered to be sufficient. Very often, a wattmeter is integrated into these devices. Figure 8: Inserting a VSWR meter into the antenna cable The cable between the Reader and the SWR meter should either be very short (< 20 cm) or 7.20 m (RG 58=Lambda/2) long. If the VSWR is greater than 1.3:1 after tuning, use the Jumper J1-J3 on the board of the antenna to perform a slight adjustment. Furthermore the VSWR meter can be used at any time to check the tuning of the antennas. If changes in local conditions result in detuning of the antennas, this can be verified whenever desired. In addition to the losses indicated by the SWR due to mismatching between the cable and the antenna, it happens that the Reader drives different output currents depending on the antenna impedance, resulting in power variance. This means that at 50 Ω a current of approx. 0.3 A flows. No current flows when an output is open, and when there is a short circuit the current is limited to approx. 1.0 A. Matching the antenna also has a slight effect on the noise levels. Antenna ID ISC.ANT310/310 SWR / Power Meter Reader ID ISC.LR2000
OBID i-scan® Installation ID ISC.ANT310/310-A FEIG ELECTRONIC GmbH Page 14 of 22 M90401-1e-ID-B.doc 4.7 Antenna tuning The antenna has been factory-tuned on a wood block at an impedance of 50 Ω. If it is installed in a defined distance to metal or other magnetically conductive materials, no adjustment or re-adjustment will be necessary. After installation in different ambience conditions, the antenna may be re-tuned for a limited sector with the help of jumpers. For this purpose you will either need an SWR – meter or a measuring device (antenna/impedance analyser) in order to determine the impedance at 13,56 MHz. Before tuning, all antennas and antenna cables must be fixed in place. The antenna should be connected to the reader directly. A additional necessary power splitter or transformer should be looped in after the tuning procedure. Figure 9: The antenna’s impedance in dependence on the frequency (measured at the SMA Connector)
OBID i-scan® Installation ID ISC.ANT310310-A FEIG ELECTRONIC GmbH Page 15 of 22 M90401-1e-ID-B.doc E N G L I S H Figure 10 The antenna’s impedance in dependence on the frequency (measured direct at the antenna matching board) Figure 10 show the diagram of the impedance and phase in dependence of the frequency of the antenna ID ISC.ANT310/310. If the antenna had been tuned well, the (serial-) resonance point should be at the minimum of the impedance curve at 13.56MHz, 50 Ω. and a phase angle of 0°. If metal is brought close to the antenna, the impedance curve shifts to the right and slightly down-wards. This means that the closer the metal part comes, the impedance value will decrease and then increase more and more. During this process, the antenna will once again pass the value of 50 Ω. However, this operating point does not lead to optimal reading ranges. The optimal operating point always lies on the series resonance, which in this case equals the minimum value on the im-pedance curve.

The jumper positions may be used as a first start or reference values, only. In any case, the im-pedance or VSWR must be double checked, afterwards.

OBID i-scan® Installation ID ISC.ANT310310-A FEIG ELECTRONIC GmbH Page 17 of 22 M90401-1e-ID-B.doc E N G L I S H In order to re-adjust the antenna on 50 Ω and phase angle 0°, the jumper terminals J1, J2 and J3 may be used for re-tuning. See chapter 4.6 How to measure the voltage standing wave ratio (VSWR). The purpose of the tuning process is to tune the antenna, again, as close as possible to 50 Ω. maintain the following tolerances: Z = 50 +/- 3 Ω and phase angle Phi = 0° +/- 3° or R = 50 +/- 3 Ω and X = 0 +/- 5 Ω or VSWR <= 1:1.3 Please proceed as follows: 1. Adjust jumper terminals J1, J2 and J3 according Table 1 2. Adjust capacities by using terminal J3 at the optimal value lying close to 50 Ω (minimum value VSWR). 3. Adjust capacities by using terminal J1 and J2 at the optimal value lying close to 50 Ω (minimum value VSWR). 1. Repeat step no. 2. and 3. till a impedance of 50 Ω ± 1 Ω and phase angle 0°± 3° is reached (minimum value VSWR <=1:1.3) Setting the capacity at the terminals J1, J2, J3 at the best matching point close to 50 Ω and phase angle 0° must be done by insert or remove the jumper. Thereby, the value at the analyser or VSWR meter before and after the change has to be compare. As first step, the small capacities should be changed. If this change get an improvement or if the jumper is inserted already with the next larger value has to be continued If the closing of Pin 1-2 improve the matching, the next step would be to close Pin 3-4 and open Pin 1-2. This is because the capacitor at Pin 3-4 has approximately twice the value of the capacitor at Pin 1-2. The jumper configuration at terminal J1 and J2 should be put equal. Big capacities at terminal J1 and small values at J2 lead to asymmetry in the antenna. This can lead to performance losses and/or damage of the components in the antenna Note: Voltages as high as 1000V may be present on the antenna wire or on various compo-nents of the tuning boards. Before starting your work first disconnect the antenna from the Reader. When tuning the antenna make sure no components inside the housing are touched.

This is the most simple and most frequently used antenna type in the sector of OBID® i-scan. Its size depends highly on the reading range requirements and the place of application as well as the national limiting values. Figure 1: course of the magnetic lines of electric flux of a single loop antenna The working range of an antenna depends very much on the position and alignment of the transponder. A single loop antenna has the highest range in the centre of the antenna and if the transponder is aligned parallel to the antennas surface. The transponder is powered only when sufficient field lines flow through him. Therefore, the activa-tion of the transponder in the direction perpendicular to the antenna surface, within the antenna area, is not possible. Label

OBID i-scan® Installation ID ISC.ANT1690/600-A/-B FEIG ELECTRONIC GmbH Page 8 of 41 M91200-1e-ID-B.doc 4 Installation and Wiring Notes: Before installing the antennas please read 5.1 Project Notes . The spacing of the antennas in a gate depends on the antenna configuration. If multiple antennas or gates are connected to different readers, a minimum clearance of 8 m must be kept between the antennas or gates. For shorter distances (1 m – 8 m) the readers must be synchronized. Below a distance of 1.5 m the antennas must also be shielded from each other. Otherwise the read range will be significantly reduced. The antennas must have a minimum distance of 20 cm to all larger metal parts! At a distance of less than 50 cm between the antenna and metal parts the read range will be significantly reduced.
OBID i-scan® Installation ID ISC.ANT1690/600-A/-B FEIG ELECTRONIC GmbH Page 9 of 41 M91200-1e-ID-B.doc 4.1 Mounting Preparation For the assembly of the antenna it must be unpacked, carefully. This is done as described in the following steps: 1. Place the packed antenna on the floor with the top side facing up. Carefully open the box and then remove the antenna. Fig. 1: Packed Antenna 2. Afterwards, the antenna has to be placed carefully on the floor again. Now, the two fastening screws (hexagon socket width AF 2,5) have to remove of the antenna base cover.

OBID i-scan® Installation ID ISC.ANT1690/600-A/-B FEIG ELECTRONIC GmbH Page 11 of 41 M91200-1e-ID-B.doc 4.2.2 Drilling the Mounting Holes If the position of the antennas has been marked or determined, the mounting holes and the holes for the cable entry, can be marked and drilled. The dimensions are shown in Fig. 4: Fig. 4: Floor plate dimensions All dimensions are in mm with general tolerance to ISO 2768 m (middle). The size and type of the anchors depends considerably on the strength of the base or floor. The anchors should be capable of withstanding a permissible load of at least 5 kN per anchor for all load directions (e.g. for concrete floor Hilti HVA anchors with HAS-(E) M8 threaded rod or Hilti HIS-N M8 (5/16”) threaded inserts). The size of the mounting holes in the antenna is 10 mm (.39”). The length of the anchors or bolts should be selected such so they jut out at least 40 mm (1.6”) and maximum of 55 mm (2.2”) of the floor. Please follow the mounting instructions of the anchor manufacturer! A cable opening is provided for the necessary connection cable (see Fig. 4). The cable opening is dimensioned such as up to 10 cables having a diameter of 6 mm can be passed through the opening.

OBID i-scan® Installation ID ISC.ANT1690/600-A/-B FEIG ELECTRONIC GmbH Page 14 of 41 M91200-1e-ID-B.doc 5 Typical Antenna Configuration (Gate Antenna with two Antennas) The standard configuration of a gate with three-dimensional tag orientation consists of one ID ISC.ANT1690/600-A with reader and multiplexer and one ID ISC.ANT1690/600-B. If a tag moves, at horizontal line, through the gate, it can be read at least once. This ensures high reliability of the antenna system. 5.1 Project Notes The antenna configuration as described allows detection of a tag moving at a horizontal line, through the reading area of the gate. The tag orientation is non-critical. The tags are detected along a horizontal axis of motion in certain regions within the antennas. The area of detection depends on the tag orientation. The size of the three-dimensional reading area of the antennas is shown in the sketch below. Fig. 8: Capture area and tag orientation Notes: Note that the entire reading area of the antenna gate is larger than the three-dimensional area shown in the drawing. This means there are tag orientations in which the tag can be detected outside the reading area. If multiple gates are arranged with short distances between each other, these will mutually interfere with each other. In this case, the readers for the individual gates have to be synchronized. GD 20 cm
OBID i-scan® Installation ID ISC.ANT1690/600-A/-B FEIG ELECTRONIC GmbH Page 15 of 41 M91200-1e-ID-B.doc To achieve three-dimensional reading of the tag in the reading area drawn above, the following conditions must be fulfilled: - The gate distance (GD) depends on the antenna configuration (see Table 2: Design notes). - The tags should be at least ISO card size (46 mm x 75 mm). - The activation field strength of the tags should be less than or equal to 75 mA/m. - The distance from tag to tag should be greater than 10 cm. If the tag to tag distance is reduced, the gate distance GD must be reduced correspondingly. This applies in particular to distances under 5 cm. - The maximum number of tags (serial number or data) depends on the traverse speed with which the tags are brought through the capture area of the gate (see Table 2: Design notes). The number of tags may be increased in the gate distance GD is correspondingly reduced and the maximum speed adjusted accordingly. - The antenna should be at least 50 cm away from metal parts. - There should be no interference of the Reader from other electrical devices in the environment. The Noise Level difference should be less than 30 mV. - The ID ISC.LR2000 reader should be set to an RF power of 8 watts. - When using ISO 15693 transponders, the Readers should be set as described in 5.2.5 Reader Configuration with Multiplexer. - If multiple gates are operated at the same time at a distance of less than 8 m, the Readers must by synchronized. See Application Note Synchronizing RFID Long Range Readers using the digital in-/outputs (N11200-1e-ID-B.pdf). Gate with antenna Type A and Type B Gate distance GD ≤ 100 cm Number of tags at a speed of 1 m/s - Read serial number - Read data 16 8 Table 2: Design notes A minimum distance of 65cm between the two gate antennas is required.

The serial number and tag type will be shown in the display. 5.3.3 Testing the performance In this test the capture area of the gate antenna described in 5.1 Project Notes is checked. For other tags or other configurations the indicated ranges and read areas may differ accordingly. Fig. 12: Performance Test of the gate antenna
OBID i-scan® Installation ID ISC.ANT1690/600-A/-B FEIG ELECTRONIC GmbH Page 28 of 41 M91200-1e-ID-B.doc The test begins by checking the read range outside the gate (see Fig. points c and d), assuming the configuration and locality permit it. Start the ISO Inventory command in the ISOStart program as described in 5.3.2 Reading a Serial Number. If the tag is oriented parallel to the antenna at the outside, a read range of 65 to 70 cm should be achieved. The three tag orientations are checked inside the gate. This corresponds to the lines and orientations efg. Now slowly move the tag in the vertical and parallel direction with respect to the antenna along the line e from one side to the other. The tag should always be read. Then repeat this along the line f in the vertical tag direction transverse to the antenna and on the line g in the horizontal tag orientation. Here again the tag should always be read. The tag should be read within the gate by moving in a horizontal line through the gate in all three read orientations. If one or more „holes“ are detected, check the noise values on the Reader (see 5.3.1 Checking the Noise Level). The following may result in faulty readings: • Antenna improperly installed (orientation, antenna distance, check cabling) • Metal near the antennas is detuning or interfering with them. • The antennas are not properly tuned. • Noise level too high (Vmax – Vmin ≥ 30 mV) • Transponder too insensitive, detuned or defective • Reader improperly configured (transmitting power, transponder type, modulation, transponder parameters, etc.). • A cable is defect or has a weak contact. • Reader, multiplexer or antenna defect.

For the entire EU the limits are set forth in the R&TTE Directive and EN 300 330. In North America this is regulated by FCC Part 15 (USA) and by the RSS-210 (Canada). The ID ISC.ANT1690/600 antenna with the ID ISC.LRM2000 Reader, when used as intended, complies with the basic requirements of Article 3 and the other relevant clauses of the R&TTE Directive 1999/5/EG of March 1999. This means that operation in the 27 EU countries and the EFTA countries (EU countries plus Switzerland, Norway and Iceland) is possible with a maximum field strength of 42 dBµA/m at 10 m distance. RF approval (at a maximum field strength of 42 dBµA/m at 10 m) for the ID ISC.ANT1690/600 antenna with ID ISC.LRM2000 Reader has been granted in accordance with FCC Part 15 for the USA and the RSS-210 for Canada RF approval in accordance with EN 300 330 is still possible in all 46 CEPT countries. The CEPT countries are: Albania (ALB), Andorra (AND), Austria (AUT), Azerbaijan (AZE), Belarus (BLR), Belgium (BEL), Bulgaria (BUL), Bosnia and Herzegovina (BIH), Croatia (HRV), Cyprus (CYP), Czech Republic (CZE), Denmark (DNK), Estonia (EST), Finland (FIN), France (F), Germany (D), Greece (GRC), Hungary (HNG), Iceland (ISL), Ireland (IRL), Italy (I), Latvia (LVA), Liechtenstein (LIE), Lithuania (LTU), Luxembourg (LUX), Malta (MLT), Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia (MKD), Moldova (MDA), Monaco (MCO), Netherlands (HOL), Norway (NOR), Poland (POL), Portugal (POR), Romania (ROU), Russian Federation (RUS), San Marino (SMR), Slovak Republic (SVK), Slovenia (SVN), Spain (E), Sweden (S), Switzerland (SUI), Turkey (TUR), Ukraine (UKR), United Kingdom (G), Vatican City (CVA) and Yugoslavia. The following restrictions are in effect (as of: October 2009): 1. Outside the EFTA countries RF approval must in all cases be applied for. The existing measuring protocols in accordance with EN 300 330 are generally sufficient. When placing the antennas in service, the systems integrator must ensure that the prescribed mounting instructions are followed, the necessary Reader settings are made and permissible limits according to the national regulations are not exceeded.

OBID i-scan® Installation ID ISC.ANT1700/740-A /-B FEIG ELECTRONIC GmbH Page 9 of 40 M91201-0e-ID-B.doc 3.2 Mounting preparation For assembly the antenna must be carefully unpacked. This is done as described in the following steps: 1. Place the packed antenna on the floor with the top side facing up. Carefully open the box and then remove the antenna. Fig. 2: Antenna in its packaging 2. After that the antenna has to be placed carefully again on the floor. Now you must remove the two fastening screws (hexagon socket width A/F2,5) of the antenna cover at the antenna foot and remove it upwards. Fig. 3 Step 1 Step 2 Fig. 3: Opening the antenna base
OBID i-scan® Installation ID ISC.ANT1700/740-A /-B FEIG ELECTRONIC GmbH Page 10 of 40 M91201-0e-ID-B.doc 3.3 Installing the antenna Notes: Before installing the antennas please read 4.1 Project Notes . The spacing of the antennas in a gate depends on the antenna configuration. If multiple antennas or gates are connected to different Readers, a minimum separation of 8 m must be kept between the antennas or gates. For shorter distances (1 m – 8 m) the Readers must be synchronized. Below a distance of 1.5 m the antennas must also be shielded from each other. Otherwise the Reader range will be significantly reduced. The antennas must have a minimum distance of 20 cm from all larger metal parts! At a distance of less than 50 cm between the antenna and metal parts the Reader range will be significantly reduced. 3.3.1 Drilling the Mounting Holes If the position of the antennas has been marked or determined a hole template, can be used to mark and drill the mounting holes and the holes for the cable entry. The dimensions are shown in Fig. 4: Fig. 4: Floor plate dimensions All dimensions are in mm with general tolerance to ISO 2768 m (middle).
OBID i-scan® Installation ID ISC.ANT1700/740-A /-B FEIG ELECTRONIC GmbH Page 11 of 40 M91201-0e-ID-B.doc The size and type of the screw anchors depends considerably on the strength of the base or floor. The anchors should be capable of withstanding a permissible load of at least 5 kN per anchor for all load directions (e.g. for concrete floor Hilti HVA anchors with HAS-(E) M8 threaded rod or Hilti HIS-N M8 (5/16”) threaded inserts). The size of the mounting holes in the antenna is 10 mm (.39”). The length of the anchors or bolts should be selected such that they extend at least 50 mm (2.0”) and a maximum of 65 mm (2.6”) from the floor. Please follow the mounting instructions of the anchor manufacturer! Two cable openings are provided for the necessary connection cable (see Fig. 4). The cable openings are dimensioned such that up to 10 cables having a diameter of 6 mm can be passed through each opening. We recommend routing the antenna cables through the cable opening on the Multiplexer side. All other cables such as the supply voltage and synchronisation cable should be routed through the cable opening on the Reader side. Alternatively the cables can be routed at the sides of the antenna bas like shown in Fig. 5 Fig. 5 Cable routing at the antenna sides

The transverse antenna conductors in the middle of the antenna body have to face the same direction at all antennas.(Fig. 6) Use the adjusting screws (Fig. 7) to align the antenna vertically. Fig. 6 Transverse conductors facing same direction Adjusting screws (hexagon socket width A/F5) Fig. 7: Attaching and aligning the antenna
OBID i-scan® Installation ID ISC.ANT1700/740-A /-B FEIG ELECTRONIC GmbH Page 13 of 40 M91201-0e-ID-B.doc 4 Typical Antenna Configuration (Gate Antenna with two Antennas) The standard configuration of a gate with three-dimensional tag orientation consists of one antenna ID ISC.ANT1700/740 Type A with reader and multiplexer and one antenna ID ISC.ANT1700740 Type B. If a tag moves, at horizontal line, through the gate, it can be read at least once. This ensures high reliability of the antenna system. 4.1 Project Notes The antenna configuration as described allows detection of a tag moving horizontally through the capture area of the gate. The tag orientation is non-critical. The tags are detected along a horizontal axis of motion in certain regions within the antennas. The area of detection depends on the tag orientation. The size of the three-dimensional capture area of the antennas is shown in the sketch below. Fig. 8: Capture area and tag orientation Notes: Note that the entire capture area of the antenna is larger than the three-dimensional area shown in the drawing. This means there are tag orientations in which the tag can be detected outside the capture area. If multiple gates are arranged with short distances between each other, these will mutually interfere with each other. The Readers for the respective gates must then be synchronized. GD 20 cm
OBID i-scan® Installation ID ISC.ANT1700/740-A /-B FEIG ELECTRONIC GmbH Page 14 of 40 M91201-0e-ID-B.doc To achieve three-dimensional capture of the tag in the capture area drawn above, the following conditions must be met: - The gate distance GD depends on the antenna configuration (see Table 2: Design notes). - The tags should be at least ISO card size (46 mm x 75 mm). - The activation field strength of the tags should be less than or equal to 75 mA/m. - The distance from tag to tag should be greater than 10 cm. If the tag to tag distance is reduced, the gate distance GD must be reduced correspondingly. This applies in particular to distances under 5 cm. - The maximum number of tags (serial number or data) depends on the traverse speed with which the tags are brought through the capture area of the gate (see Table 2: Design notes). The number of tags may be increased in the gate distance GD is correspondingly reduced and the maximum speed adjusted accordingly. - The antenna should be at least 50 cm from metal parts. - There should be no interference of the Reader from other electrical devices in the environment. The Noise Level difference should be less than 30 mV. - The ID ISC.LRM2000 Reader should be set to an RF power of 8 watts. - When using ISO 15693 transponders, the Readers should be set as described in 4.2.5 Reader Configuration with Multiplexer. - If multiple gates are operated at the same time at a distance of less than 8 m, the Readers must by synchronized.

The serial number and tag type will be shown in the display. 4.3.3 Testing the performance In this test the capture area of the gate antenna described in 4.1 Project Notes is checked. For other tags or other configurations the indicated ranges and read areas may differ accordingly. Fig. 13: Performance Test of the gate antenna
OBID i-scan® Installation ID ISC.ANT1700/740-A /-B FEIG ELECTRONIC GmbH Page 28 of 40 M91201-0e-ID-B.doc The test begins by checking the read range outside the gate (see Fig. points c and d), assuming the configuration and locality permit it. Start the ISO Inventory command in the ISOStart program as described in 4.3.2 Reading a Serial Number. If the tag is oriented parallel to the antenna towards the outside, a read range of 65 to 75 cm should be achieved. The three tag orientations are checked inside the gate. This corresponds to the lines and orientations efg. Now slowly move the tag in the vertical and parallel direction with respect to the antenna along the line e from one side to the other. The tag should always be read. Then repeat this along the line f in the vertical tag direction transverse to the antenna and on the line g in the horizontal tag orientation. Here again the tag should always be read. The tag should be read within the gate when moving horizontally through the gate in all three read orientations. If one or more „holes“ are detected, check the noise values on the Reader (see 4.3.1 Checking the Noise Level) . The following may result in faulty readings: • Antenna improperly installed (orientation, antenna distance, check cabling) • Metal near the antennas is detuning or interfering with them. • The antennas are not properly tuned. • Noise level too high (Vmax – Vmin ≥ 30 mV) • Transponder too insensitive, detuned or defective • Reader improperly configured (transmitting power, transponder type, modulation, transponder parameters, etc.). • A cable is defective or has a poor contact. • Reader, Power Splitter, Multiplexer or antenna defective.

The pulse duration can be set (CFG2 / REL1) between 100 ms and 6553.5 s by adjusting the Reader configuration. Relay X11 provides a changeover contact for low voltages. The volume of the buzzer could be adjusted mechanically approx. 10-15 dB. (see Fig. 14) Fig. 14 Volume adjusting Notes: The relay outputs are dimensioned for max. 24 V DC / 2 A. The relay outputs are intended only for switching resistive loads. If an inductive load is used, the relay contacts must be protected by an external protection circuit. Reversing the polarity or overloading the outputs will destroy them. See also Installation Manual M51001-2de-ID-B.pdf ID ISC.LRM2000-A/B -+
