The LED indicators on the Renos unit will be discussed later in this manual.
Add-ons
There are several add-ons available for products of the iSense Lumen series. The add-ons have their own
manual, however, we will briefly discuss the function of those add-ons here.
Metal Detection
The iSense Metal Detection unit can be used to detect foil-lined bags, which are sometimes used by thieves to
prevent the RF and RFID tags from being read by the detection system or reader. With metal detection, we can
detect metal objects and provide a discrete alarm to the store employees.
You need a minimum of 2 gates and 1 Metal Detection unit in each gate within a group for Metal
Detection to work.
The distance between large (Metal) doors and the gates with Metal Detection must be at least 1.5
meters. Doors swinging open to the outside must be at a distance of at least 1 meter.

RF Smart Deactivator
The RF Smart Deactivator can be used to deactivate RF labels at the checkout. When connected to an iSense
system, it can be powered by a Renos system. The Renos system is also able to gather information from the
deactivator, like whether the deactivator is operational or not.
The RF Smart Deactivator cannot be used in systems where RF is not enabled.

Key switch
It is possible to install a key switch to the iSense gate, this can be useful if you want to temporarily disable the
system (both RF and RFID depending on the available hardware).
The key switch needs to be connected directly to the Renos unit inside the iSense gate.
You need one key switch per gate

iSense Dashboard
The Renos platform has a built-in RF security dashboard, the iSense Dashboard. It can be enabled by entering
a purchased license key during the configuration wizard. The customer can then visit the dashboard via the
web browser. To make this work, the Renos system should be either connected to the customer network, or a
stand-alone set-up with a router should be made.
The iSense Dashboard makes it possible to monitor the iSense system from inside the store. It creates
overview and provides real time information for more effective reactions. The iSense Dashboard contains:
Real time overview of which gate or attention button is alarming: the ‘recent alarms’ provide controls to
react quickly and accurately to alarms.
The system health widget shows the system’s performance, to quickly identify whether the system is
functioning correctly.
The alarm data widget shows the amount of alarms per day, and compares this to the same time last
day, as a percentage.
The visitors widget shows the amount of customers today, and shows the difference compared to last
hour as a percentage.
All information is saved for the last seven days, to evaluate your store’s statistics for a more efficient
operation.

3 Preparing the installation
When preparing an installation with products from the iSense Lumen series, there are a few things that should
be taken into account:
How much gates you would need to cover an entrance or door
Where the gates will be placed in relation to the environment, to minimize interference (RF) and
reflections (RFID)
The number of Power Inserters that is needed to power the system
Which cabling needs to be installed
Ready for upgrade to RFID. When this required, make sure to take the number of power inserters in
consideration and you might want to place the coax cables in the floor already for future RFID.
The firewall settings that need to be in place to enable Device Management
As those requirements differ based on which technology is used (RF, RFID or both), both technologies are
described in a different section.
Free-standing gates
If the gate is going to be free-standing in a super- or hypermarket environment, please take proper
precautions in terms of crash-protection. When customer guidance rails are available, you can use
those rails to protect the antenna against crashes by placing the antenna behind or after the
customer guidance rails.
When not available, use Nedap crash protection against shopping carts.
Defining the system
When a store requires gates to be placed at several locations, there needs to be a decision on how to combine
these gates into one or multiple systems. The following rules need to be taken into account:
1. A different role is a different system. It is not possible to combine gates for Electronic Article
Surveillance (EAS) with gates for stock room to sales floor in one system. Both roles need different
systems with their own Power Inserter and customer network connection.
2. Within the EAS role, create as large systems as possible. To minimize interference between gates, the
Renos platform has a built-in synchronization mechanism for both RF and RFID technology. For this
synchronization mechanism to work, the gates need to be connected in one system.
Page 15 of 59
Manual iSense Lumen series
3. However, the maximum cable length requirements needs to be satisfied. If it is not possible to put all
the gates within a role in one system due to the maximum cable length requirements, you can split the
gates into two or more systems. In this case assign each system a different multi-system channel during
the RF configuration.
Stock room to sales floor and goods receiving
For the stock room to sales floor and goods receiving roles: when there is a different door or
entrance, build a separate system.

Manual iSense Lumen series
Field distribution
As RF and RFID are different technologies, their field distribution is different.
Field distribution for RF
There are two modes of operation for RF technology. The mode can be configured during the configuration
wizard.
Full field. There is a field around the gate. This mode is mainly used when the gates are placed near the
checkouts, as you can have one gate covering a relatively large area.
Infrared beam sensors
Please note that when you want to use infrared beam sensors for customer counting, you can only
count customers in between the gates. So, if you set RF to full field, you are not able to count
customers outside of the gates.
Focused field. There is a field in between gates. This mode is mainly used at the exit/entrance area of a store,
as it is better to have antennas on the side, than in the middle of the passageway.
Page 17 of 59
Manual iSense Lumen series
Field distribution for RFID
In contrary to RF, with RFID the field is side-dependent. This means that there are two antennas inside each
gate, pointing to opposite directions. If there is more than one gate in a group, there is a detection field in
between gates. This is the default mode of operation.
If you combine both RF and RFID in one system, we recommend to set RF to focused field. In this
way, the behaviour for both technologies is approximately the same.
If there is one gate in a group, it is not possible to make an aisle. To still have detection, you need to choose a
detection side of the gate. This can be either facing the previous gate or the next gate. This mode is mainly
used for small passageways, like with toilets.
Detection distance, aisle width and label-free zone
The next step after understanding the field distribution, is understanding how many gates you need. This
depends on the detection distance (or aisle width) of the system. There is no fixed answer to this question, it
depends on many factors, like customer expectation, quality of the tags, the environment, etc.
The recommendations below are based on the Nedap NT4040 (reference label) for RF, and the Nedap RFID
hard tag (for RFID).
Page 18 of 59
Manual iSense Lumen series
Please note that only the recommended 'detection distance' or 'aisle width' is specified. Depending
on the tag used and the environment the gates are placed in, sometimes larger values can be
achieved. It is advised to test this, before using it in a store.
RF set to focused field or with RFID
We speak about 'aisle width' in this case.
When RF is set to focused field, the following recommendations are in place:
For the iSense Lumen 45 gate: an aisle width of 200 cm (6.6 ft.) is recommended.
We recommend to have a label-free zone (both RF and RFID) of more than 100 cm (3.3 ft.) from the center of
the antenna.
RF set to full field (without RFID)
We speak about 'detection distance' in this case.
When RF is set to full field, the following recommendations are in place:
For the iSense Lumen 45 gate: a detection distance of 100 cm (3.3 ft) is recommended.
We recommend to have a RF label-free zone of more than 150 cm (4.9 ft.) from the center of the antenna
behind the antenna, and 100 cm (3.3 ft.) into the store.
Page 19 of 59
Manual iSense Lumen series
RF installation requirements
The operation of RF technology is affected by both coupling issues (the antenna couples with other objects)
and by active interferers (other devices that transmit a signal around 8.2 MHz). Objects that cause coupling
effects could be windows, doors, metal framing around the checkout, etc. Interferers can be created by
another RF system, but also motors driving doors or roller shutters.
Take the following placement requirements into account when projecting the location of gates:
There should be a minimum distance of 20 cm (8 in.) between the center of the gate and the wall.
There should be a minimum distance of 200 cm (6.6 ft.) between 8.2 MHz tags and/or labels and the
nearest antenna. If this is not possible, the labels and tags can be stored in a metal box in the checkout.
In addition, when normal or sliding doors are present:
There should be a minimum distance of 40 cm (16 in.) between the center of the gate and the door.
Page 20 of 59
Manual iSense Lumen series
In addition, when a roller shutter is present:
There should be a minimum distance of 70 cm (28 in.) between the center of the gate and the roller
shutter.
If a power socket is less than 50 cm (19.7 in.) from the gate, the center of the gate should be aligned with the
power socket.
Page 21 of 59
Manual iSense Lumen series
Before the installation, it is advised to gain information on the flooring that is below the antenna. If a
dry-walk floor mat is used, it might have metal components that influence RF detection performance.
In that case a cut needs to be made in the floor mat to break conduction between the metal
components in the mat and the antenna.
When the antennas are placed right next to a checkout that contains significant metallic parts, we advise to
always use a shield.
To prevent interference and coupling issues, please make sure there is no conducting connection
between the gate and the checkout.
Page 22 of 59
Manual iSense Lumen series
RFID installation requirements
When RFID technology is used, there are different installation requirements to consider than with RF
technology. Since the RFID field is much less strict defined than with RF technology, there is a larger area
where tags could be detected. In contrary to RF, RFID is much less sensitive to coupling or interference issues.
Automatic tag muting
The RFID reader has a maximum read throughput of around 200 tag reads per second. This throughput is used
to monitor the status of the tags continuously. When many tags are placed close to or in the label-free zone, it
might be that the reader is 'too busy' with those tags, compared to other tags. This will impact the system
performance. If this happens, the reader will mute some tags, to have time remaining for other tags. This
feature is called automatic tag muting. It might therefore be that some tags in the neighborhood of the system
are muted, and will not cause an alarm when moved through the gates.
Metallic surfaces
As the RFID field is reflected by metallic surfaces, this might confuse the Dynamic Beam Steering algorithms
and influence (change or enlarge) the detection field. That is why it is advised to avoid metallic surfaces in the
neighborhood of RFID-enabled gates.
Page 23 of 59
Manual iSense Lumen series
Power Inserter
When the installation location of the products is clear, the location of Power Inserters needs to be defined.
There is a maximum number of Renos units that can be connected to one Power Inserter, depending on which
technologies are used and the number of add-ons that are in use. The table below shows the amount of Power
Inserters needed for each hardware configuration.
Cable conditions: a CAT 5E with a maximum cable length of 75 meter or a CAT 6 with a maximum cable length
of 100 meter.

Nedap Power Inserters
Please note that you can only use a Nedap Power Inserter (Power-over-Ethernet) to power Renos
systems. It is not possible to use generic Power-over-Ethernet switches or stand-alone inserters.
Page 24 of 59
Manual iSense Lumen series
Upgrading to RFID
If there is any chance that the retailer wants to upgrade an 8.2 MHz RF system to RFID later on,
please take the power requirements for RFID already into account. So instead of having 6 (230 V) or
5 (110 V) units on one Power Inserter - use just 4 (230 V) or 3 (110 V) units on one Power Inserter.
Of course, it is also possible to put less gates units on a Power Inserter.
Make sure the Power Inserter is placed at least 1 m or 3.3 ft. from the gates. When placed closer to
the gate, it might cause interference on the RF technology.
It is recommended that the Power Inserter is connected to an always-on power socket. This allows
continuous monitoring of the system, and remote firmware update during the night.
Page 25 of 59
Manual iSense Lumen series
Cabling
When the number of gates and the number of Power Inserters is clear, the next step is to determine the
cabling to be used for the system. Depending on the technologies that are used, different cables are required.
The iSense Lumen series uses a daisy chain topology, which means that all devices are connected as a chain: a
cable from a Power Inserter OUT to a Renos unit IN, from that Renos unit OUT to the next Renos unit IN, etc.

RFID Coaxial cable (included with the product) between each unit in the same group
If the system should be connected to the customer network or Device Management, there also needs to be an
Ethernet cable from the system to the customer network or a 3G/4G router.
Cable specifications - Ethernet cable
The iSense system only works reliable when the following unshielded twisted pair UTP cable is used:
Cat5e with stranded copper or solid copper core, with minimal 24AWG (0,51mm) core diameter. For
example: Belden 1583E. The maximum cable length for Cat5e is 75 meters / 250 ft.
For cable lengths above 75 meter between Renos unit(s) and power supply we recommend Cat6 cable
with stranded copper or solid copper core, diameter of 23AWG (0,57 mm) or 22AWG (0,64 mm). The
maximum cable length for Cat6 is 100 meters / 330 ft.
The use of CCA (copper cladded aluminium) or CCS/CCF (copper cladded steel) cable is not allowed. Please
note that the maximum cable lengths also apply when a Power Inserter is in between.
The EZ RJ45 connectors that are included in Renos products are suitable for the Cat5e cable with 24 AWG.
When Cat6 (23 / 22 AWG) cable is used, a suitable connector should be ordered, for example EZ-RJ45 CAT6
connector. Make sure to use the EZ-RJ Pro HD Crimp Tool, and change the blades frequently.
It is possible to use your own connectors. Make sure that the connectors are suitable for the cable, and the
right crimping tool for the connector that is used. Follow the recommendations of the cable manufacturer.
Local regulations may dictate the use of a specific cable type or rating.
Page 26 of 59
Manual iSense Lumen series
When the cable lengths allow for it, we recommend to place the Power Inserter in the switch room. In
this way the customer only has to arrange an Ethernet outlet near the installation, and no power
sockets are needed. This could reduce the cost for installations significantly.
Page 27 of 59
Manual iSense Lumen series
RFID coaxial cable
The RFID coaxial cable that is supplied with the product has a length of 3.5 m (11.5 ft.). As the quality of this
cable strongly influences the performance of the system, the cable is supplied together with every gate the
iSense Lumen series by Nedap. It is not possible to use 3rd party cables.
RFID coaxial cable placement
It is only necessary to install the RFID coaxial cable between units in the same group. It is not
necessary to connect a RFID coaxial cable between groups.
The RFID coax cable has a fixed length of 3.5 m (11.5 ft.) to minimize signal loss. If the cable is not
run through a slit, but through a basement or other conduit please check whether the path is not
longer than approximately 2.5 m (8.2 ft.).

Device Management
Device Management is the service where all organizations, stores, systems and services can be managed. It
also allows a business partner to execute remote service and management. Device Management is offered
together with all Renos-based systems (!Sense).
All the Renos-based products can be connected to the Nedap Device Management Service. This service
provides:
Monitoring. Critical system parameters are monitored 24/7. As soon as something is wrong with the
system, an alert is generated to the supporting partner.
Remote Service. Via Device Management it is possible for an authorized and certified Nedap engineer
to access the user interface of the system to make changes to the configuration or access system logs.
Remote Firmware update. It is possible to install new firmware releases remotely.
To use Device Management, please make sure that the following firewall ports are opened before installation:
HTTPS port 443 outgoing to *.nedapretail.com
TCP port 443 outgoing to *.nedapretail.com
This can be verified by connecting your laptop to the customer network, open your browser and navigate to
https://login.nedapretail.com. You should see a login screen there.
It is also possible to do this via an HTTPS proxy, however, the remote log-in feature is not available then.
For further details, please refer to the Knowledge Base article "KB3: Network information".

Manual iSense Lumen series
4 Executing the installation
When all the preparations are taken into account, the installation of the system can take place. The installation
consists of physically mounting the system in the right orientation, installing the cabling and applying power
to the system.
Conduit or slit
We always advise to place a conduit, as this allows easy replacement of cables when necessary. If not
possible, a slit can be made as well.
When a system is going to be upgraded to RFID in the future, please make sure to install a conduit to
add the RFID coax cable in the future. You can also choose to install the RFID coax cable already. This
is especially important when relying on a floor cut.
The conduit or slit in which the cables are placed, should be exactly in the middle of the antenna,
perpendicular to the antenna. This is explained in the following pictures.

Physical installation
Make sure the right locations of the holes are marked on the floor, according to the dimensions sketched
earlier in this document. Drill the holes.
Placing a gate close to a wall
If RF technology is to be used: always keep enough space to place a shielding afterwards. You will
only know whether you need shielding when you are configuring the system (for example when you
find too much interference during the configuration).
Then follow these steps to place the nuts.
1. Clean the hole.
2. Insert Hilti-hit.
3. Place the nut.
Hilti-hit and the nut are not included in the installation set.
Page 31 of 59

Manual iSense Lumen series
Orientation of products
Due to the orientation-sensitivity of the RFID antennas, the gates all need to be oriented in the same way. To
make sure this happens, please follow the listed steps in order:
1. Place all gates with the infrared beam sensors connector facing towards the customer entrance/exit of
the store.
a. For the stock room to sales floor and goods receiving role: this also holds here - the gates should
not face the goods delivery entrance/exit of the store. See the example below.
b. For the EAS role, when you need to secure a toilet: the toilet is considered as the customer
entrance/exit of the store. See the example below.
2. Find gate number 1.
a. To find gate number 1, find the sticker on the footplate of the gate that indicates the IN/prev and
OUT/next direction.
b. The flow is from the OUT of one gate, to the IN of the next gate.
c. Follow the IN backwards, until you have arrived at the first gate. That is gate number 1.
3. The OUT of the Power Inserter should be connected to the IN of gate number 1.
If this procedure is not executed correctly, the RFID technology will not work.
In the following examples, the location types in the table below occur.

Please note that when you compare stock room to sales floor role to EAS with toilet, the orientation
of the gates is exactly opposite! This is due to the fact that all gates should be facing the customer
entrance/exit of the store, with the exception of the toilet.
Example of goods receiving role
Installing cabling and filters
During the preparation phase, the exact cabling required was already determined. Now these cables can be
placed.
All wiring should be done according to local regulations.
When cables are put in the slit or conduit, it is recommended to mark them with IN and OUT, or PREVIOUS and
NEXT, as this will allow you to distinguish them from each other.
Filters
Please note that filters should be placed around the cables to reduce interference with other systems. These
filters are delivered together with the system.
Filter should be placed at:
Page 36 of 59
Manual iSense Lumen series
Every Power Inserter: around the Ethernet cable, both at the OUT and IN port.
Every Renos unit: around the Ethernet cable and the RFID coaxial cable (when used), both at the OUT
and IN port.
Every 9 m (30 ft.) for longer Ethernet cables.
To save yourself a huge amount of frustration, please first place the filters before attaching the
connectors. The other way around is not possible. Many have tried before.
Filters can be ordered as spare part with Nedap. Please refer to the Nedap Retail Portal for more
information.
The filters that are close to a Renos unit should be placed inside the foot of the gate. If there are multiple
filters in the electronics are of the gate, they should be tied together.
Ethernet cables
Connect the Ethernet cable from the OUT port with the IN port of the next Renos unit
First, in all aisles connect the Ethernet OUT port with the IN port of the next Renos unit, always following the
directions of the arrows in the cabling indicated by the image below.
Please make sure to test every Ethernet cable for correct connections and twisting of all 4 pairs (8
wires) with an Ethernet cable tester. This is to make sure that the system can function correctly.
Page 37 of 59
Manual iSense Lumen series
RFID coaxial cable
If the Ethernet cable is connected, connect the RFID coaxial cable in the same way. Connect from Gate 1 (next)
to Gate 2 (previous), from Gate 2 (next) to Gate 3 (previous), etc.
The RFID coaxial cables should be connected from the NEXT port of one reader, to the PREVIOUS port of the
second reader. PREVIOUS and NEXT are related to the order of units in relation to the first Power Inserter.
Please make sure that you don't make sharp bends in the RFID coaxial cable. This will have a
negative impact on the performance of the system.
Don't use a tool to tighten the RFID coaxial cable connectors. This is not necessary and might break
the connectors. If the connector is tightened by hand, that is good enough.
Status LEDs
The electronics inside the unit has several status LEDs that can be used to discover the status of each part of
the electronics.

Renos unit in the iSense system.
Page 42 of 59
Manual iSense Lumen series
We advise to use a long USB cable. This gives more comfort during the configuration as you can find
a good place to put your laptop (instead of on top of stairs, or on the floor next to the antenna).
Besides, some laptops cause interference on the RF technology, so it is better to place them further
away.
We advise to use a ferrite ring core filter around the mini USB cable that is used to configure Renos.
These can be ordered as spare part with Nedap. Please refer to the Nedap Retail Portal for more
information.
Entering the configuration wizard
You can enter the configuration wizard by opening your browser, and navigating to:
http://192.168.133.1
Authentication
During the configuration, the user is required to authenticate himself. How this is done, is dependent on the
Device Management availability.
The system is connected to Device Management: you can directly enter your Nedap Retail username
and password.
Page 43 of 59
Manual iSense Lumen series
The system is not connected to Device Management, and you don't have a Nedap Retail authentication
software: choose one of the following steps:
If your laptop is able to connect to Device Management via a 3G dongle or Wi-Fi, you can use
this option to enter your username and password.
If that is not available, you can use your smartphone.
If your smartphone has no internet access, you can call your main technician to get an
authentication code.
Please contact support for more details on how to obtain a Nedap Retail username and password.
Getting help in the wizard
If something is not clear, each page has a question mark button in the top right corner. You can click this to get
more information on what is expected to do on a certain page.
Firmware version and System ID
When you ask for support on a specific system, the support engineer will always ask you for the firmware
version and the system ID. The firmware version is displayed in the right top of the configuration wizard. If you
click the firmware version, a pop-up will appear that shows the System ID.
Factory reset
To execute a factory reset on a single Renos unit, the following steps need to be executed:
1. Turn off the system by removing the power cable of the Power Inserter.
2. Connect a Mini-USB cable from the USB service port to the USB port on the Renos unit.
3. Reconnect the power cable to the Power Inserter.
4. The LED that usually indicates that the firmware is running (the green LED on the right) will show the
following behavior:
a. Blink couple of times
b. Stay on
c. Blink couple of times
When this is completed, wait one minute before proceeding.
5. Turn off the power.
6. Remove the USB cable.
7. Turn on the power.
Page 44 of 59
Manual iSense Lumen series
Configuration is lost
Please note that when doing a factory reset, all settings and configuration of the unit are lost. The
firmware version does not change.
Firmware change
There are four ways to change the firmware version on a Renos-based system:
1. Local - single unit over-write. The over-write can be executed by inserting a USB stick with the right
firmware into the USB port.
2. Local - complete system over-write. The over-write can be executed during the configuration wizard
with files on your laptop.
3. Local - complete system update. The update can be executed during the configuration wizard with files
on your laptop.
4. Device Management update. The update can be executed via the Device Management service.
If the system is integrated with a 3rd party system, please confirm the firmware version with that 3rd
party before installing it.
Firmware over-write Local - single unit over-write
Download the correct firmware image file from the Nedap Retail portal. Extract this file to a USB stick. Turn off
the power of the system. Insert the USB stick in the USB port of a Renos unit. Power the system. Wait until
LEDs 4, 5 and 6 are off again. This can take around ten minutes. Then turn off the power again, remove the USB
stick and turn on the power.
Configuration is lost
Please note that when using 'local - single unit flash' firmware change, all settings and configuration
of the unit are lost.
It's only possible to execute this on-site and not remotely, as the system needs to be re-configured
before it is usable again.
Page 45 of 59

6 Integrating the installation with other
systems
It is highly recommended to integrate the FLR line product into other solutions in use at the end customer.
Software integration with API's
The Renos platform offers several API endpoints that deliver events. Those events include:
RFID reads
RFID movements
RF alarms
RFID alarms
Infrared beam sensor events
For more information please refer to the Software integration page on the Nedap Retail portal with
documentation and examples.
Physical integration using an IO Box
It is also possible to integrate other systems via relay contact outputs and inputs. This is not directly provided
by the Renos unit, but can be done via a 3rd party IO Box.
Supported 3rd party IO Box
At the moment, the following 3rd party IO Box is supported:
MOXA ioLogik E1214
The IO Box should be connected to a Renos unit via a USB to Ethernet adapter.
An output on an IO Box can be switched when one of these events occur:
There is an RF alarm, RFID alarm, Metal Detection alarm.

in the manual and correct the orientation of
the gates.
RF technology issues
When there are issues with RF technology during the configuration (the gates show as orange or red in the
wizard), please follow the following steps:
1. Check the parameters in the RF Advanced Config of the configuration wizard, RF gate performance
section. Probably one of those parameters is red or orange.
Page 53 of 59
Manual iSense Lumen series
2. Disable all transmitters.
a. If all parameters in the RF gate performance section turn green again, there is a coupling
problem (the transmitter couples with a label-like object in environment). Please continue at the
'coupling problem' section.
b. If all parameters in the RF gate performance section remain orange or red, there is an active
interferer (another device that transmit radio waves around the 8.2 MHz RF spectrum, like
another EAS system, an engine or a power supply). Please continue at the 'active interferer'
section.
Coupling problem
Coupling problems are caused by objects that act as a label to the RF system. For example metallic
doorframes, metal checkouts, cabling: everything that runs in a loop and is metallic.
To solve these problems, there are a few things you can try:
Tighten screws in the metallic construction. This might work for checkouts or customer guidance rails.
Try to interrupt the metallic loop. This can be done by using non-metallic parts inside those loops, or to
make a cut in them.
Create a shortcut in the metallic loop, to make it smaller. In this way it will resonate at a different
frequency.
If the above solutions don't solve the problem, you can decrease the sensitivity of the system. This can be
done by ticking the 'reduced sensitivity' button in the RF Advanced Config.
If a decreased sensitivity doesn't work, and there is only one type of label or tag in the store, you
also have the option to increase the 'receiver delay', in steps of 3 dB.
The problem could also be solved with additional hardware:
A 3-loop only 50 ohm PCB. This will work when the coupling loop is located in the middle
height of the gate.
A shielding. This will work in a lot of cases. However, the detection distance will be reduced
with about 20 cm (0.7 ft.). The field will also slightly creep around the shield. This is called
'back detection'.
3-loop only 50 ohm PCB
The 3-loop only 50 ohm PCB is only available in Europe, with CE certified products. Using the 3-loop
only 50 ohm PCB in other regions invalidates the local certifications.
Page 54 of 59
Manual iSense Lumen series
If these things don't solve the problem, please contact support.
Active interferer
The first step is to try to locate the source of the active interferer. You can do this by unplugging electronic
devices around the gate (or move them away), and see if the parameters in the 'RF gate performance' section
improve, or when the average height of the spectrum is reduced. If this is the case, you have identified the
active interferer.
When the active interferer is known, the following solutions are possible:
1. Try to move the active interferer away from the gate as far as possible.
2. Try to apply filters around the cabling of the active interferer.
3. Shield the active interferer with aluminium foil of at least 0.05 mm (2 mil.).
If the above solutions don't solve the problem, you can decrease the sensitivity of the system. This can be
done by ticking the 'reduced sensitivity' button in the RF Advanced Config.
The problem could also be solved with additional hardware:
A shielding. This will work in a lot of cases. However, the detection distance will be reduced
with about 20 cm (0.7ft.). The field will also slightly creep around the shield. This is called
'back detection'.
There are also round ferrites available that can be used to reduce active interference sources, find
ferrites with optimal impedance at around 8.2MHz
If these things don't solve the problem, please contact support.
