With metal detection, wecan detect metal objects and provide a discrete alarm to the store employees.Restrictions for metal detectionYou need a minimum of 2 gates with Metal Detection units to work.Only possible when there are no moving doors with metal (i.e. an aluminum frame around thedoor).Please note that for the connection of the Metal Detection in the FC-line antenna a longerconnection cable is needed (800 mm / 2.6 ft).
Page of 12 43 Manual FC-lineRF security dashboardThe Renos platform has a built-in RF security dashboard. It can be enabled by entering a license key during theconfiguration wizard. The customer can then visit the dashboard via the web browser. To make this work, theRenos system should be either connected to the customer network, or a stand-alone set-up with a routershould be made.
Page of 13 43 Manual FC-line1. 2. 3 Preparing the installationWhen preparing an installation with FC-line products, there are a few things that should be taken into account:How many gates one needs to cover an entrance or door.Where the gates will be placed in relation to the environment, for example to minimize interference(RF).It is preferred to install the FC-line gate on the floor mount column. This will up the performance of thesystem and still gives a clean look in the store.What cabling need to be applied (Cat 5E cable).The maximum distance between antennas is 2200 mm / 7.2 ft (2000mm / 6.6 ft recommended).Mounting distance from the ground must be 200 mm / 8".For mounting on concrete and stone walls, chemical anchors are preferredFor mounting on steel frames, EPDM rivet blinds are necessary, which are included in the installationsetDistance brackets (25 mm / 0.98") are provided in the installation set, when possible install the FC-lineproducts with these distance brackets. This will improve the performance of the system, especiallyrecommended for steel frames.The firewall settings that need to be in place to enable Device ManagementDefining the systemWhen the store owner requires gates to be placed at several locations, one needs to decide on how tocombine these gates into one or multiple systems. The following rules shall be taken into account:Create as large systems as possible. To minimize interference between gates, the Renos platform has abuilt-in synchronization mechanism. For this synchronization mechanism to work, the gates need to beconnected in one system.However, the maximum cable length requirements needs to be satisfied. If it is not possible to put allthe gates in one system due to the maximum cable length requirements of 100 meters / 109 yd, youcan split the gates into two or more systems. In this case assign each system a different multi-system during the RF configuration.channel
Page of 14 43 Manual FC-lineField distribution for RFThere are two modes of operation for RF technology. The mode can be configured during the configurationwizard. There is an RF field in between gates. This mode is preferred for the best performance of theFocused field.system. There is an RF field around the gate. This mode is mainly used when the gates are placed near theFull field.checkouts, as you can have one gate covering a relatively large area.Infra-read beam sensorsPlease note that when you want to use infrared beam sensors for customer counting, you can onlycount customers in between the gates. So, if you set RF to full field, you are not able to countcustomers outside of the gates.
Page of 15 43 Manual FC-lineDevice ManagementAll the Renos-based products can be connected to the Nedap Device Management Service. This serviceprovides:Monitoring. Critical system parameters are monitored 24/7. As soon as something is wrong with thesystem, an alert is generated to the supporting partner.Remote log-in. Via the Device Management portal it is possible for an authorized Nedap-certifiedengineer to access the user interface of the system to make changes to the configuration or accesssystem 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:TCP port 443 outgoing to *.nedapretail.comThis can be verified by connecting your laptop to the customer network, open your browser and navigate to . You should see a special page there.https://api.nedapretail.comIt is also possible to do this via an HTTPS proxy, however, the remote log-in feature is not available then.For more details, please see the Knowledge Base article on Device Management.If Device Management is available at a certain site, it is possible to pre-configure a system, such thatthe field engineer will have an easier job. For more information, please refer to the Knowledge Basearticle on Pre-configuration.
Page of 16 43 Manual FC-line4 Executing the installationWhen all the preparations are taken into account, the installation of the system can take place. The installationconsists of physically mounting the system in the right orientation, installing the cabling and applying powerto the system.Physical installation: Wall mountingThe FC-line gates can be mounted in three different methods:Mounted on the floor mount column (recommended)Mounted on the front of the door frameMounted on the side of the door frameDistance to the floorThe distance to the floor should be at least 200 mm / 8" to have enough space for cabling and filters.Rotation of the antennaThe antenna can be rotated vertically to create the optimal focussed RF field. Please note that onlywhen both sensitive sides of the two antennas are facing each other, the maximum distance of 2200mm / 7.2 ft can be obtained. When rotating the antenna, please make sure the Customer CounterPCB's also face each other to work properly. The Customer Counter PCB can easily be rotated insidethe antenna.Prevent interferenceUsing the floor mount column increases the performance of the FC-line gate. It prevents interferencefrom the door frame or wall behind the door frame. When mounting the FC-line gate to the doorframe, using the distance brackets included in the installation set, will help prevent interference.Order floor mount column seperatelyThe floor mount column is not included in the product, but should be ordered separately, articlenumber 9216561.

Probably one of those parameters is red or orange.Disable all transmitters.If all parameters in the RF gate performance section turn green again, there is a couplingproblem (the transmitter couples with a label-like object in environment). Please continue at the'coupling problem' section.
Page of 38 43 Manual FC-line2. b. If all parameters in the RF gate performance section remain orange or red, there is an activeinterferer (another device that transmit radio waves around the 8.2 MHz RF spectrum, likeanother EAS system, an engine or a power supply). Please continue at the 'active interferer'section.Coupling problemCoupling problems are caused by objects that act as a label to the RF system. For example metallicdoorframes, 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 tomake a cut in them.Create a shortcut in the metallic loop, to make it smaller. In this way it will resonate at a differentfrequency.If the above solutions don't solve the problem, you can decrease the sensitivity of the system. This can bedone 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, youalso have the option to increase the 'receiver delay', in steps of 3 dB.If these things don't solve the problem, please contact support.Active interfererThe first step is to try to locate the source of the active interferer. You can do this by unplugging electronicdevices around the gate (or move them away), and see if the parameters in the 'RF gate performance' sectionimprove, or when the average height of the spectrum is reduced. If this is the case, you have identified theactive interferer.When the active interferer is known, the following solutions are possible:Try to move the active interferer away from the gate as far as possible.Try to apply filters around the cabling of the active interferer.Shield the active interferer with aluminum 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 bedone by ticking the 'reduced sensitivity' button in the RF Advanced Config.
Page of 39 43 Manual FC-lineThere are also standard click-on ferrites available that can be used to reduce active interferencesources (e.g. Würth 742 711 31) If these things don't solve the problem, please contact support.
