ILR provides highly accurate, real-time data collection with minimal human intervention.  The very long communication range of up to 500 m (1500 ft) allows automated identification, tracking and tracing of assets and people in areas as large as a steel construction workshop without human intervention.  The new RTLS system allows localization of tags down to several meters. This new series of ILR products is the next step forward in wireless applications such as:  • Identification • Tracking and tracing and • Localization of assets or personnel.  1.1 Features Easy Installation  Only few components need to be configured. Only the i-PORTs needs a host connection. The i-SAT only needs power supply. Cable-free Installation  With the solar installation kit even the power supply is an easy job. Light Infrastructure  Automatic gathering of information from several i-PORTs. Preprocessing of multiple position information from the RTLS in position sever. LED on Tag (option)  Provides visual identification of an addressed tag ("pick by light"). 32 kByte read/write memory on tag Allows storage of complete process information on every tag. Handheld units  Manual finding an object. Up to 500 m (1500 ft) read/write range Allows automated identification, tracking and tracing of assets and people without human intervention. 500 Tag simultaneous Identification Large numbers of tags can be identified virtually simultaneously. RTLS only used when needed  This saves battery lifetime and installation costs.

   i-PORT M 350, i-SAT 300 RTLS, i-PORT M 350 RTLS      Page 27 of 30 5 Maintenance 5.1 General In principle, the ILR system is maintenance-free. When correctly installed it operates for many years without any problems.   5.2 Precautionary Maintenance Regular checking of all ports and cables belonging to the system is recommended. Unstable connections could lead to damage and malfunctions of the system and therefore should be repaired as soon as possible.  A Brief Checklist • Are all casing intact? • Are all cables intact? • Are all connectors intact? • Are all connectors securely fastened? • Are all screws still tight? • Is there suddenly a malfunction at a specific unit?
   RTLS Hardware and Installation Manual  Page 28 of 30 5.3 Spare Parts 5.3.1 Recommended spare parts stock  In order to keep the down time of the system during malfunctions as short as possible it is recommended to have certain spare parts in stock. At least one central unit, one antenna and one antenna cable should be available. With larger systems with more than approx. 15 i-PORTs the doubling of the recommended stock quantity should be considered. Furthermore, it is recommended to have several spare tags in stock,  corresponding to approx. 0.5 – 1 % of the total number of tags.  5.3.2 Preparing the spare parts In general all spare parts can be used immediately after delivery from IDENTEC SOLUTIONS. However, for the compact communicator there are various settings of the communication parameters. In order to keep the down times short it is recommended to set these parameters before the component is entered into the spare part stock system. In most cases all units within an identification system are used in the same way so that only one setting is required.  5.3.3 Examination and repair of exchanged parts  The data tags and compact communicators are complex electronic power units on which the customer can carry out only very limited repairs. Normally the repairs are carried out at IDENTEC SOLUTIONS or possibly at a distributor. Before a part is sent in for repair a short examination should be carried out.  5.4 Returns  Parts or main components returned for repair or exchange must be handled with great care. PC cards must be returned in the appropriate ESD-protecting packaging material. All returns should include a completed returns form (see appendix) and be sent to the local distributor or to:  IDENTEC SOLUTIONS AG Service Department Millenium Park 2 6890 Lustenau AUSTRIA / AUTRICHE
