Chapter 1: IntroductionCopyright © 2009, Impinj, Inc. 2Impinj Support InformationSee the Impinj Support Web page (support.impinj.com) for information on obtaining tech-nical assistance. See “Chapter 5: Troubleshooting” on page 17 for guidelines on how to capture data for analysis by Impinj technical support personnel.Introduction to Speedway®/RevolutionSpeedway®/Revolution (or Speedway/R) is a sta-tionary, small form factor, UHF Gen 2 RFID tag reader that provides network connectivity between tag data and enterprise system software. Built on the industry-leading quality, high performance, and excellent reliability of Impinj’s original Speedway reader, Speedway/R includes a variety of new features that increase its application flexi-bility:• Low Power ConsumptionWith a low power consumption design, Speed-way/R can utilize Power over Ethernet (PoE). Using PoE simplifies deployment and dramatically reduces costs. Speedway/R does not compromise on performance, however. Even when using PoE, the reader delivers the full 30 dBm transmit power. Note that Speedway/R supports the IEEE standard 802.3af (for PoE).• Compact Form FactorThe compact size of Speedway/R (7.4 x 6.9 x 1.2 in) enables ease of installation in tight spaces and embedded applications. • Availability of Two ModelsSpeedway/R offers two models, each with a different number of high performance monostatic antenna ports. The R220 model is a two-port configuration (shown in the above photograph), while the R420 is a four-port configuration. • High Performance FeaturesSpeedway/R utilizes a variety of high performance features making it possible to read up to 1150 tags per second. These features include Autoset, Low Duty Cycle, dynamic antenna switching, and receive sensitivity filtering for read zone confinement.Requirements for Using Speedway/RThis section describes the key requirements for operating and interfacing with a Speed-way/R reader.Environmental Requirements • Operating temperature: -20 degrees C to +50 degrees C (non-condensing)• Supported Regions: US, Canada, and other regions following US FCC Part 15 regula-tions
Speedway Revolution Installation and Operations Guide3Copyright © 2009, Impinj, Inc.Hardware Requirements• TCP/IP network equipment, as required to connect the reader to a PC, Mac, or other network terminal. If you plan to use PoE, you must have either a power injector or a network switch that supports PoE.• Impinj-approved UHF RFID antenna(s), including associating RF cable with RP-TNC male connector interface• A computer running Microsoft Windows XP, Vista, or Linux PC, which has:• an available RS-232 serial port (required only if host system does not support DHCP)• Standard, grounded DB9 serial cable (required only if your system does not sup-port IP provisioning). The Cisco Management Cable (RJ-45 to DB9) is recom-mended.• An Ethernet port• Standard Ethernet cable(s)Power RequirementsAs noted earlier, there are two options for powering your Speedway/R reader: Power-Over-Ethernet (PoE) or an external power supply. PoE offers the most efficient power consumption and allows up to +30 dBm. An external power supply allows up to +32.5 dBm.If using a power supply module, you must use a module with +24 VDC output that has the following part number: IPJ-A2001-000. Use an AC power cord (for North America) that has the following part number: IPJ-A2051-USA. You can order this power supply and power cord from Impinj.Supported Operating EnvironmentsThis section describes the environments in which you can access the Speedway/R Rshell console (for configuring, monitoring, and maintaining the reader). The tools you use to access the Rshell console depend on how you connect your PC to the reader: serial con-nection (RS-232) or Ethernet connection (SSH/Telnet). On PCs running Microsoft Win-dows, you can now use the same tool—Putty—for both types of connections.Table 1: Speedway/R Operating EnvironmentsInterface ProtocolRecommended ToolsMicrosoft Windows LinuxEthernet SSH—Port 22Telnet—Port 23Putty SSH or TelnetSerial RS-232 Putty (version 0.59 and higher supports serial)Minicom
Chapter 1: IntroductionCopyright © 2009, Impinj, Inc. 4Supported Communication ProtocolFor client control of the reader, Speedway/R supports the EPCglobal Low Level Reader Protocol (LLRP) v1.0.1. LLRP is an EPCglobal standard interface that allows communi-cation with the reader and with EPCglobal Generation 2 (Gen 2) RFID tags.Antenna RequirementsDepending on the reader model you are installing, Speedway/R is equipped with two (R220) or four (R420) monostatic antenna ports (independent, bidirectional, and full duplex TX/RX).Antenna requirements vary by regulatory region. For details about the requirements in a specific region, see the relevant antenna section in “Appendix A: Information Specific to Regions of Operation” on page 19.
Speedway Revolution Installation and Operations Guide5Copyright © 2009, Impinj, Inc.Chapter 2: Installing and Connecting Speedway/RevolutionThis chapter provides details about the Speedway/R I/O ports and status LEDs and explains the detailed procedures for installing the reader and connecting it to your net-work.Speedway/R I/O Ports and Status LEDsThe following graphic illustrates the various I/O ports located on the Speedway/R reader. This graphic illustrates a Speedway R420, which includes four antenna ports (not visible in this graphic). Note that Speedway R220 includes two antenna ports. Other than that dif-ference, however, the exterior ports are the same on both models.Figure 1: Impinj Speedway/R Port ConnectionsNote: For details on the function and electrical specifications for each pin of the GPIO DB-15 connector, see “Appendix B: GPIO Details” on page 23.Antenna Ports and Status LEDsOn the back side of the reader are the antenna ports and LED status indicators.

Speedway Revolution Installation and Operations Guide7Copyright © 2009, Impinj, Inc.Overview of Installation and Connection ProcessListed below are the primary steps to follow to install and connect Speedway/R:1. Position the reader appropriately for your environment. This may or may not involve mounting the reader.2. Connect the antenna(s) to the appropriate ports on the reader.3. Connect the reader to the network.4. Connect power to the reader.5. Using the MultiReader application, read some tags with your newly-installed reader.Detailed Installation ProceduresThis section provides the details for each step listed above.Step 1: Position the Speedway/R readerChoose the appropriate location for the reader. Generally speaking, you should always keep the unit away from direct sunlight, high humidity, extreme temperatures, vibration, and sources of electromagnetic interference. Any combination of these conditions may degrade performance or shorten the life of the unit. Also, if you plan to power the reader using an external power supply, confirm that there is a standard 120 or 220 VAC outlet nearby. To minimize power loss, it is best to position the reader within 100 meters of its power source. To learn more about choosing the appropriate location for maximizing the performance and efficiency of your reader, see the Impinj System Design Guide. Mounting the ReaderDepending on your environment, you may need to mount the reader to a wall or another object.To mount the Speedway/R reader:1. Locate the four mounting slots on the reader, as illustrated below: 2. Using 1/4” - 20 or M6 screws, secure the unit. You can mount the reader horizontally or vertically.Caution: If there is any chance of dust or water exposure, you should mount the reader so that digi-tal I/O ports are facing down to prevent ingress.
Chapter 2: Installing and Connecting Speedway/RevolutionCopyright © 2009, Impinj, Inc. 8Step 2: Connect the Antenna(s) to the Speedway/R ReaderDepending on the Speedway/R model you are installing, the reader has either two antenna ports (Speedway R220) or four antenna ports (Speedway R420). Each port is independent, bidirectional, and full duplex TX/RX (monostatic). It is recommended that you connect the antenna(s) before powering on the reader.Warning: You must use Impinj-approved antennas with Speedway/R. See “Appendix A: Informa-tion Specific to Regions of Operation” on page 19 for a detailed list of approved vendors. Using any other antenna may damage the reader or adversely affect performance. Speed-way/R requires professional installation to correctly set the TX power for the RF cable and antenna selected.To connect the antenna(s) to Speedway/R:1. Position each reader antenna, keeping the following points in mind:• Position the antenna(s) to achieve the most effective and efficient tag reads. For details on the best layouts for various environments, see the Impinj System Design Guide.• Position the antenna(s) to maximize operator safety. Personnel who will be in the area for prolonged periods of time should be able to remain at a safe distance at all times. See “Appendix A: Information Specific to Regions of Operation” on page 19 for the specific requirements for your regularity region.2. Mount the antenna(s) according to the instructions provided by the antenna manufac-turer.3. Attach the antenna cable(s) to the antenna port(s) on the reader. You can choose any port for any antenna. 4. Finger tighten the connection, making sure it is secure. A loose connection negatively impacts the performance of the antenna.Caution: Impinj has designed its antenna ports to be self-terminating. Therefore, it is important that you do not terminate unused antenna ports. Leave them unconnected.Step 3: Connect Speedway/R to the NetworkYou are now ready to connect the installed Speedway/R to your network. You have two options:• If your network supports DHCP, you can connect the reader directly to your Ethernet network and, once the reader is powered, immediately communicate with it via Telnet (TCP/IP). • If your network does not support DHCP you will need to connect a PC directly to the reader using a serial connection (RS-232), then use the reader’s Rshell command line interface to configure a static IP address for the reader. At that point you will be able to connect the reader to your Ethernet network.
Speedway Revolution Installation and Operations Guide9Copyright © 2009, Impinj, Inc.The details of completing each connection option are discussed below. Before proceeding, however, take note of the reader’s factory default network settings:To connect Speedway/R to the Ethernet network:• Using a standard Ethernet cable, connect the RJ-45 connector on the reader to a LAN drop or network switch. A typical network configuration is illustrated below:If your network switch is PoE-enabled, the reader will power on when you connect it to the network. See “Step 4: Power the Reader” on page 11 for information on what to expect.Note: If you need to connect a PC directly to the Ethernet port, you can use a standard Ether-net cable. A crossover cable is not necessary.Table 3: Default Network SettingsSetting Descriptionhostname Speedway-XX-XX-XX where XX-XX-XX is the last three bytes of the reader’s MAC address (which is printed on the ver-sion label attached to the reader enclosure)DHCP Enabled. The reader also reports its hostname to the DHCP server.
Chapter 2: Installing and Connecting Speedway/RevolutionCopyright © 2009, Impinj, Inc. 10To connect Speedway/R to your PC over a serial connection:1. If necessary, download the latest version of Putty, which is a free and reliable SSH, Telnet, and serial client. Version 0.59 or higher contains support for serial connections.2. Using a standard, grounded DB9 serial cable, connect your PC’s valid/active COM port to the serial port on the reader, as illustrated below:3. Power the reader and wait for the boot sequence to complete. (See “Step 4: Power the Reader” on page 11.)4. On the PC, run the Putty application and select the Serial connection option. Verify that Serial line to connect to is set to COM1 (if that is correct for your PC). Set Speed to 115200. Set Flow control to None.5. Click Open. The Rshell console window opens.6. Log in with the following default credentials (unless they have been changed):User Name: rootPassword: impinj7. When the Rshell command line prompt appears, you can begin configuring the net-work settings for the reader. See “Using Rshell to Configure Network Settings for Speedway/R” on page 13 for details.8. When you have completed configuration of the appropriate network settings, connect the reader to your Ethernet network as described on page 9.Note: If you decide to connect to DHCP after connecting serially, remember to use Rshell to change the IP address on the reader from static to dynamic. See “Using Rshell to Config-ure Network Settings for Speedway/R” on page 13 for details.
Speedway Revolution Installation and Operations Guide11 Copyright © 2009, Impinj, Inc.Step 4: Power the ReaderYou have two choices for powering Speedway/R: • Power over Ethernet (PoE) • External power supply If you are using PoE, your reader began receiving power when you connected it to the net-work in the previous step. Therefore, there is nothing more you need to do. If you are using an external power supply, connect the AC power plug into a suitable 100-240 VAC, 50-60 Hz power outlet.In either case, when power is supplied to the reader, it begins its boot sequence. This sequence typically completes within 30 to 45 seconds. Until the boot sequence completes, the reader will not accept commands. The Power and Status LEDs on the reader alert you to what is happening. See the table labeled “Reader Operations and Associated Status LED Behavior” on page 6 for details.Important: If a reader is receiving its power via PoE and it detects that an external power supply has been connected, the reader reboots and switches its power source from PoE to the external power supply. If, however, the reader is receiving power via an external power supply and it detects the connection to a PoE-enabled network switch, nothing changes. The reader continues to receive its power from the external supply. Because the external power sup-ply is capable of higher power than PoE, it always takes precedence if both sources are connected.Step 5: Use the MultiReader Application to Read Some TagsTo be completed later.

Speedway Revolution Installation and Operations Guide19 Copyright © 2009, Impinj, Inc.Appendix A: Information Specific to Regions of OperationSpeedway/R is designed to work in various regulatory regions. This appendix includes frequency ranges and antenna requirements specific to each supported region. Note that this first release of Speedway/R covers operation in North America only.Important For each region, the reader is locked such that it can operate only in the specific frequen-cies for that region. The region-specific frequencies are listed in this appendix.Operation in North AmericaFrequency PlanThe FCC specifies frequency hopping across the North American spectrum allocated to UHF RFID (902–928 MHz, with hopping occurring between 902.75–927.25 MHz in 500 KHz steps). This is further explained in the table below:Antenna RequirementsPositioningPosition the antenna such that personnel who will be in the area for prolonged periods of time can remain at least 25 centimeters from the antenna’s surface. This is required by the FCC. For more details, see the following FCC bulletins:• FCC OET Bulletin 65: Evaluating Compliance with FCC Guidelines for Human Exposure to Radiofrequency Electromagnetic Fields• FCC OET Bulletin 56: Questions and Answers about Biological Effects and Potential Hazards of Radiofrequency Electromagnetic FieldsTable 4: Frequency Plan for North AmericaTransmit Channel Number Center Frequency (MHz)1 902.752 903.253 903.754 904.25......49 926.7550 927.25
Appendix A: Information Specific to Regions of OperationCopyright © 2009, Impinj, Inc. 20InstallationBecause Speedway/R is capable of up to +32.5 dBm conducted power on the housing RF connector, professional installation is required.PowerSpeedway/R may only be operated with Impinj-approved antennas and can radiate no more than 36 dBm EIRP (Equivalent Isotropically Radiated Power) per FCC Part 15.247 regulations. The Speedway/R output power may be increased to provide the maximum allowable EIRP subject to a maximum conducted power allowance as well. The maximum conducted power at the antenna connector can be no more than 30 dBm. The maximum allowable output power of the reader can be set to satisfy both the conductor and radiated maximum criteria. The expression for the maximum reader power setting is:Maximum power setting (in dBm)= The Smaller of(36 - Composite Antenna Gain (in dBm))OR(30 + Cable Loss (in dBm)),where the composite antenna gain comprises the maximum linear antenna gain in dBi minus any cable loss between the reader and antenna in dB.
