1GV-RU9003 UHF RFID ReaderIntroductionGV-RU9003 is a Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) reader of ISO18000-6C (EPC GEN2)standard. Designed for parking lot management, the reader can read RFID tag within 10 m(32.8 ft).FeaturesBuilt-in antenna and RF moduleEffective identification with specially designed antenna patternCompatible with access controller using Wiegand 64 interfaceIdeal sensing range within 10 m (32.8 ft)Special energy-saving design reducing power consumptionSupport for external sensors and controllersElectronic tag compliant with EPC Gen II (ISO18000-6C) standardR&D patent for EMI reductionNCC/FCC/CE certificationNotice1. The product pattern is certified by the FCC. Unauthorized modification of the frequency,power, or originally designed functions and characteristics of the RFID reader areprohibited.2. This product has a water-resistant design. Unauthorized removal of the screws and caseof the product will damage the water-resistant performance and void product warranty.3. Cables are water-resistant. Do not damage the shield, as it will also damage water-resistant performance.4. The reader should be positioned so that personnel in the area for prolonged periods maysafely remain at least 20 cm (8 in) in an uncontrolled environment from the reader’ssurface.5. Avoid the interference of other radio frequencies with the look-up table frequency-hopping spread spectrum (FHSS).

Wiegand Communication Interface1.1. Connect with access controller using Wiegand interface (one-way operation).1.2. Support by Wiegand 64 interface.2. DI (external control signal input)2.1. Signal level defining: High level (H) : 3.3V / Low level (L) : 0V (GND signal)2.2. When the external control signal input is at high level and the GV-RU9003 is in thestandby mode, the GV-RU9003 will not output any identification code to the back-end access controller.2.3. When the external control signal input is at low level and the GV-RU9003 is in theworking mode, the GV-RU9003 will output the identification code on the tag to theback-end access controller.2.4. If DI is not in use, connect it with the blue or blue-white wire.
3Recommended Installation of GV-RU9003 RFID Reader1. Secure the GV-RU9003 RFID reader on a column, pedestal, wall, or beam at a heightbetween 1.8 - 2.2 m (5.9 – 7.2 ft) above the ground. Be sure to leave some space toadjust the reader’s angle to the upper, lower, left, or right position.2. Check the antenna pattern as listed below and make sure that the tags on the passingvehicles will be on the opposite side of the reader.3. Although the ideal sensing range of GV-RU9003 is within 10 m (32.8 ft), the actualsensing range varies due to weather (raining, fog, sunny) and installation method(horizontal, inclining).
4Connection of GV-RU9003 RFID Reader1. Connect the GV-RU9003 to a Wiegand signal source based on the communicationinterface of the access controller.2. DI (brown-white) is the input signal (e.g. ground induction loop or photo interrupter)controlling the operating mode of the GV-RU9003 with external control. If externalcontrol is not in use, please connect it with the blue or blue/white wire.
5Installing GV-RU9003You can install the reader on a pole or a pillar. Two types of pole mounts are recommended,as indicated below.Note: Make sure the diameter of the pole is within 53 mm (0.17 ft).1. Secure the L-bracket with four screws (supplied) on the rear side of the UHF RFIDReader.
62. Secure the reader on a pillar or a pole using fixed-clamp and U-clip.3. Adjust the angle of the U-clip on L-bracket and secure the hexagon screw nuts.

Warranty CardNote: If any of these items is found missing or damaged, please contact your local supplier forreplacement.Installing GV-RU9003Note: For the diagrams listed below, the LED indicator locates at the lower part of UHFRFID Reader.1. Install the RFID reader with the antenna paralleled to the Tag for better reading results.The Tag receives signals and returns them to the Reader.
112. Install the RFID Reader and the Tag as shown below.Correct Misplaced3. RFID Reader installation position3.1 Do not install RFID Reader near mental or the metallic substance will affect theelectromagnetic field type.3.2 Recommended height to set RFID reader is 1.8 ~ 2.2 m (5.9 ~ 7.2 ft). The heightshould not be lower than the location of RFID Tag.3.3 Recommended angle to set RFID reader is 15-20 degree. Adjust the angleaccording to the actual installation site.3.4 Keep any barrier away from the reading zone between RFID Reader and the Tag.
124. The RFID Reader must be installed at same side of the Tag or at the nearest readingrange to the Tag.4.1 Upper InstallationProper Improper

Recommended Tag PositionVehicles5.1 Place the tag on the front windshield or headlight, at the nearest reading range to thereader.5.2 When placing the Tag on the headlight, keep the Tag away from the metal body ofthe vehicle.5.3 If the car windshield glass contains metallic line, it will affect the reading range.To avoid such situation, install the Tag on the headlight.
145.4 Windshield insulation films that contain metal ingredients will affect the readingrange. To avoid such situation, install the Tag on the headlight.Motorcycles5.5 Install the Tag on the front shield and at the closest range to the RFID Reader.5.6 If there is no front shield available, it is suggested to install the Tag on the plasticbody of motorcycle at the closest range to the RFID Reader.
156. For card-type tags, hold the card as shown below to ensure reading results.CorrectMisplaced7. Notice11.1 When the installation is complete, examine and adjust the environment parametersagain for better reading results.11.2 Reading range between RFID Reader and the Tag will be shorten on rainy days.11.3 When two or more RFID Readers are installed together, co-channel interferencemight occur. To avoid interference, place the readers away from each other at adistance 5 times the effective reading range or set the readers to separate frequencychannels.11.4 When using the power supply, check if there is an interference problem. If yes, usethe filter to attenuate the power supply noise.
