Before starting Please observe the following: 1.2. • The RTLS portals must be installed and used in such a way to ensure minimum 35 cm separation from users / bystanders. • RTLS portal installation must be performed with directions from the Installation and Test Tool or ITT, which is a web based application. • Site survey data must be imported for ITT to function properly. • WiFi network set up by the RTLS access points must be operational and online. • Make sure that a site overview drawing is available from the site survey to help find installation locations. • Power on the portal only when instructed so by ITT. • All access points must be installed before installation of RTLS portals can begin. RTLS Installation Flow The RTSL installation is performed using Installation and Test Tool, ITT. Read about the Installation and Test Toll in the 077.208.10v RTLS Installation and Test Tool Guide. The installation follows the flow in Figure 1. RTLS Installation Guide Page 3/12 Test System Install RTLS Portal 15 RTLS Portal Status Perpare Test Tag Batch SAT RTLS Portal Test System ITT performs a test of the system from site to backend system. Physically Install RTLS Portal ITT guides the installer through the steps of installation and connection. RTLS Portal Auto-update Once the portal is installed and powered up - it automatically connects the the backend OmniTracker and gets configured without installer's involvement. Prepare Test Tag Batch The installer prepares a batch of test tags for SAT. SAT RTLS Portal The installer perfoms SAT by running the batch of test tags through the portals ITT creates an SAT report. Figure 1. RTLS Installation Flow. Read about the RTLS portal hardware in ANNEX A, e.g. product numbers and identifying the hardware parts. Read about taking useful pictures of the installation in ANNEX B. Read about the test tags for the installation process in ANNEX C. RTLS Installation Guide Page 4/12 HARDWARE DESCRIPTION A.1. Product numbers The following products are included in this installation guide: - LS4510: RTLS Portal - LS4530: RTLS Portal - LS4550: RTLS Portal - LS9310: Lyngsoe WiFi access point A.2. RTLS Portal versions Figure 2. Portal features. A.2.1. LS4510 RTLS Portal This is a passive-only portal that incorporates a passive reader and two antennas. A.2.2. LS4530 RTLS Portal This is a portal that combines a passive reader with two antennas and an active low frequency exciter. This portal will trigger active tags, but to successfully read the active tags it must be used in combination with LS4550. A.2.3. LS4550 RTLS Portal This is a portal that combines a passive reader with two antennas, an active low frequency exciter and an active UHF reader. This portal can read both active and passive tags. It can also read active tags that are excited by a nearby LS4530 portal. A.3. Identifying RTLS portal on packing label Figure 3. Packing label with RTLS model. A.4. Unpacking RTLS portal – what’s in the box RTLS Installation Guide Page 5/12 Figure 4. RTLS portal box content with powers supply (green arrow) and power cable (blue arrow). A.5. Recognizing RTLS models All three models of the RTLS portals look similar on the outside. The model can be identified from the front label – refer to the illustration below. Figure 5. RTLS model identification A.6. License plate The RTLS portal is equipped with a license number. On the front the 3-character license plate number is displayed. RTLS Installation Guide Page 6/12 Figure 6. RTLS license plate number on front On the back the full license plate number with barcode is placed. Figure 7. RTLS license plate barcode on back A.7. RTLS orientation The RTLS portal must be mounted in a specific direction. The direction is described in the site survey with reference to the front label and its position of the logos. Figure 8. Portal orientation. RTLS Installation Guide Page 7/12 A.8. RTLS Hanging Kit RTLS portals come with a hanging kit that consists of four flexible wires attached to the corners. Figure 9. Portal hanging links. A.9. RTLS power RTLS portals come with connected power supply and power cord. Place the power supply on the portal lid. Plug the cable into the power supply. Figure 10. RTLS Power supply and cord The RTLS portal is now ready for installation. RTLS Installation Guide Page 8/12 SITE PICTURES When taking pictures of the installation it is important that the picture illustrate the equipment and the surroundings. The purpose is both the be able to identify the portal and to see if any installations or equipment might affect the performance of the equipment. Take more pictures, if one picture is not sufficient to document the installation. Good pictures: Here three pictures of the same portal are taken from various positions. RTLS Installation Guide Page 9/12 Poor pictures: Here the surrounding e.g. the dock floor / ramp is not visible, and there is only one picture of each device. RTLS Installation Guide Page 10/12 TEST TAGS Test tags can be provided by Lyngsoe. A test tag batch is normally consisting of: 15 Active RFID tags 3 Test cartons with a total of 140 passive RFID tags. The cartons are to be unfolded before they are used in the test and should not be placed directly on metal surfaces. Figure 11. cartons with passive test tags. Figure 12. Unfolded carton with passive test tags. RTLS Installation Guide Page 11/12 Figure 13. A roll cage with test tag cartons placed on a plastic box. The test should be carried out as per the instruction given in the Installation and Test tool.
