RX2 User’s Guid 4 RFID Introduction RFID Introduction Radio frequency identification, or RFID, is a generic term for technologies that use radio waves to automatically identify individual items. The individual items identified/read by a RFID reader contain a tag (also known as an electronic label or transponder). Unlike barcodes that must be read by a beam passing over the barcode, RFID tags do not have to be in the line of sight of the reader before the reader can collect the data from the tag but they do need to be within the established reading range of the RFID-module. See the “RX2 Reference Guide” for further information and configuration. Preliminary - Draft 08 RFID Reader Scan Range Type of Tag Scan Range Class 0 Tag 9.8 feet / 3.0 meters Class 1 Tag 9.8 feet / 3.0 meters Gen2 Tag 9.8 feet / 3.0 meters Figure 3 RFID Tag Reading Ranges Unlike barcode scanners that require line-of-sight before successfully reading a barcode, the RFID reader does not require line-of-sight when searching for and reading tags. The range of the RFID reader is dependent on many outside influences including the tag construction and orientation. RFID Tag Data Collection Generally, when the RX2 is powered on, the RFID reader is ready for use. • While the RX2 is booting, the Power LED is lit solid. The RFID reader is not available until the Power LED beings flashing and all drivers have finished loading. • Please consult your system administrator for application details. Although the reader is ready for use, the application may not yet have enabled the reader. • If the battery charger is connected to the RX2, the RX2 remains Off, even if the power switch is in the On position. The reader supports Class 0 (read only) and Class 1 (read and write) tags as well as Class 1 Gen2 (read and write) tags. The RFID information is relayed to the network via the 802.11 radio in the RX2. transmission is application specific. Please refer to your system administrator for details.

Please refer to the following sections to determine the desired method to power the RX2. Internal Battery Pack (Optional) The RX2 is available with an optional internal battery pack. Preliminary - Draft 08 Use the battery charger to charge the RX2’s internal battery. The RX2 battery charger charges the RX2 battery pack in less than 6 hours. It is recommended the internal battery pack be fully charged before installing the RX2. The battery charger uses an adapter cable. One end of the cable has a “break away” connection to reduce the chance of damage if the forklift is moved before the battery charger is disconnected. The other end of the cable attaches to the coupler on the forklift. The coupler is mounted on a bracket. The coupler is connected via a cable to the RX2. RX2A051CBLRMT RX2A381CHGRUS Coupler RX2 Breakaway Connection AC Charger Bracket Figure 5 Battery Charger and Cable Once fully charged, the internal RX2 battery pack powers the RX2 for nine hours. The RX2 provides a low battery warning as follows: • The power LED flashes red (or is solid red while the RX2 is booting) • The low battery buzzer sounds • A low battery signal can be sent via the radio card to the network host (please refer to your system administrator for details). When the low battery warning is displayed, there is approximately 30 minutes of power left in the battery. If the battery is not recharged before it is depleted, the RX2 automatically shuts down. The RFID reader remains functional until the battery can no longer power the RX2. If time does not permit the recharging of the internal battery pack, an external battery pack may be connected as detailed later in this chapter. Caution: E-EQ-RX2OGWW-A To prevent damage to the RX2, the cables or the battery charger, make sure the charger is disconnected before moving the forklift truck. RX2 User’s Guid 10 Connect Power Source External Battery Pack The external battery pack may be used when the optional internal battery pack was not ordered or there is not time to permit a recharge of the optional internal RX2 battery pack. The external battery pack mounts to the fork truck via a battery bracket and is connected to the RX2 with cables. The cable on the external battery connects to the coupler. The coupler is mounted on a bracket. The coupler is connected via a cable to the RX2. Preliminary - Draft 08 The external battery pack is designed to be mounted on the same side of the fork truck as the truck’s main battery for ease of service. RX2A051CBLRMT Coupler External Battery RX2 Bracket Figure 6 External Battery, Connection to RX2 Use the battery charger to charge the external battery pack.

See the following figure titled “Vehicle Connection Wiring Color Codes” for additional wire color-coding specifics. E-EQ-RX2OGWW-A Connect Power Source 13 How To: Connect Vehicle 12VDC Connection 1. The RX2 must be turned off and the power cable must be UNPLUGGED from the RX2. 2. While observing the fuse requirements specified above, connect the power cable to the terminal block or as close as possible to the actual battery terminals of the vehicle. When available, always connect to unswitched terminals in vehicle fuse panel, after providing proper fusing. Preliminary - Draft 08 ATTENTION: 3. For uninterrupted power, electrical supply connections should not be made at any point after the ignition switch of the vehicle. Route the power cable the shortest way possible. The cable is rated for a maximum temperature of 105°C (221°F). When routing this cable it should be protected from physical damage and from surfaces that might exceed this temperature. Do not expose the cable to chemicals or oil that may cause the wiring insulation to deteriorate. Note: If the vehicle is equipped with a panel containing Silicon Controller Rectifiers (SCR’s), avoid routing the power cable in close proximity to these devices. Always route the cable so that it does not interfere with safe operation and maintenance of the vehicle. Use proper electrical and mechanical fastening means for terminating the cable. Properly sized “crimp” type electrical terminals are an accepted method of termination. Please select electrical connectors sized for use with 18AWG (1mm2) conductors.
