Its’ robust and slim housing allows easy mounting on most of the assets to be tracked. Beacon tags of IDENTEC SOLUTIONS’ i-B series transmit a unique ID together with user definable data in regular intervals (ping rate). Combined with fixed readers read ranges of typically 100 m can easily be reached. With mobile readers based on i-CARD R2 (PC card Type 2) or i-CARD CF B (CF Type 2) reading distances up to 30 m are realistic. 2.1 Telegram content The tag transmits telegrams via the air interface to the reader. After decoding the following information is supplied to the host: Unique Tag ID (UID) Length 32 bits, LSB first. Can not be set or altered by the user. User data Length 9 bytes. Is reported by the reader in exactly the same format as programmed on the tag. Can be written to the tag via a proximity 13.56 MHz link using IDENTEC SOLUTIONS’ i-B2 programmer. Flag byte Length 8 bits. Meaning of the single bits depend on implemented tag functionality, in the standard version these 8 bits are user definable. Age Counter Length 2 x 8 bits. These 2 bytes are 2 cut outs from the tag internal tag age counter which is incremented by 1 with each transmission. The low byte is incremented by 1 and can therefore be used to detect missing telegram reception. The high byte counts millions of telegrams and indicate battery usage. Comparing the actual value to a predefined maximum remaining lifetime can be calculated. 2.2 Programming With IDENTEC SOLUTIONS’ i-B2 programmer following data can be written to the i-B2 S tag: User Data (9 bytes) Flag byte (8 bis) Ping rate in steps of 0.5 seconds In addition the tag can be switched between active and inactive state if needed, i.e. if permanent transmission is not allowed.

The i-B2 S can be equipped with either a 560 mAh or a 2,100 mAh battery. Following table shows these influences: Ping rate (sec) 0.5 1.0 2.0 5.0 10.0 Version 1.0 Battery 560 mAh Lifetime (years) Max.

Important Information: (1) A temperature of at least +10°C (+50°F) must be maintained during riveting to prevent the casing from cracking. (2) Always position the blind-rivet gun straight down on the rivet site and all the way to the rivet socket. (3) On occasion, a tag casing has been damaged through improper handling of the blind-rivet gun (slanted positioning of the gun to access the rivet socket). If there is a chance this might occur, it is better to use a blind rivet with a large head1 or insert an M5 washer. This has the effect of distributing the pressure over a larger surface area during riveting. The use of the washer has the added effect of positioning the rivet slightly higher in the depression, so that one can better access the rivet socket with the rivet gun. (4) Metal surfaces in direct proximity to the tag can reduce the tag’s range of function. Tags should therefore not be mounted in metal recesses or corners. (5) After mounting, the tag’s function should be tested, i.e. with a handheld. Refer to UN9924 Version 1.0 03.08.2006 Page 9/12 i-B2 S – User’s Guide C.2 Screws i.e. cylinder head or lenticular head screws M5 x i.e. M5 hexagonal locknut with M5 washer OR M5 hexagonal nut, but together with spring washer or M5 Nordlock washer Important Information: (1) Only screws with cylindrical heads are suitable for mounting the tag. We do not advise using countersunk screws. If for some reason this should be necessary, then only together with a suitable countersunk cushioning disc2. (2) Secure the screws so they cannot work themselves loose i.e. by using self-locking nuts or spring washers or Nordlock washers3. (3) If the tag is mounted out-of-doors or in a damp environment, all mounting parts need to be made of stainless steel or other non-rusting material. (4) A temperature of at least +10°C (+50°F) must be maintained during mounting to prevent the casing from cracking. (5) Depending on the type and strength category of the M5 screw used, the maximum tightening torque must be between 2 and 10 Nm. If the torque is any greater, the screw may overtighten, or the casing might break. (6) Metal surfaces in direct proximity to the tag can reduce the tag’s range of function. Tags should therefore not be mounted in metal recesses or corners. (7) After mounting, the tag’s function should be tested, i.e. with a handheld. refer to UN 1277 refer to UN 7014 Version 1.0 03.08.2006 Page 10/12 i-B2 S – User’s Guide C.3 Taping (on metal surfaces) Double-sided Tape The following double-sided tapes from 3M are currently being used/recommended: • • On level, flat surface: 3M acrylic foam tape #5952 F (Temperature: 120°C [248°F], short-term at 150°C [300°F]) On uneven, slightly curved surface: 3M acrylic foam tape #4959 F (Temperature 150°C [300°F], short-term at 204°C [368°F]) Dimensions • • • • On the roll: 50m (164 feet) Width: 19mm (3/4 inch) Thickness: 1.1mm (0.043 inches) for #5952 or 3.0mm (1/8 inch) for#4959 Length: max. 130mm (5 1/8 inches) – cut to length Procedure • • • Preparation of surfaces: Plastic casing: preliminary cleaning, 3M Primer 26 GZH, 2 minutes waiting period Metal surface: preliminary cleaning, 3M Primer 86 A, 15 minutes waiting period First attach tape to tag bottom and press on with the roll Then attach the tag to the prepared metal surface Important Information: (1) Before using the tape, cleaning agents and primers as listed, need to check if these are compatible with the customer’s operating conditions. The customer’s approval must be obtained. (2) Metal surfaces in direct proximity to the tag can reduce the tag’s range of function. Tags should therefore not be mounted in metal recesses or corners. (3) After mounting, the tag’s function should be tested, i.e. with a handheld.
