Dimensions www.nedaplibrary.com Content of Box When you receive the box, it is strongly advised to check the contents of the box before installation. The box should contain the following components: Antenna 9564918 Reader 9564675 Net adapter 9651802 Documentation o This manual o RF.Test Lite manual The antenna has a 2 meter RG174 cable with a SMA connector. The reader has a power connector, an USB port, an Ethernet port, and a SMA connector for the antenna. Installation Guide Antenna Because the antenna is shielded, it can be used in a lot of different environments. It can be placed on any desk type, but when it is mounted below a table, the table should be made of a material that doesn’t influence 13.56MHz RFID fields. So wooden tables or plastic tables will work, but metal tables will disrupt the antenna and make it not work. The field in which the antenna will read a tag can be found in the image below. Make sure that when a book is placed on the reader, the actual tag is within the area shown below. Note: The antenna might disrupt the functionality of mice, keyboard or other input devices when these devices are put in the antenna field. On table Make sure that there will not be any metals present in the antenna field when using it on top of a table. Also make sure that the cable of the antenna is not kinked or stressed in any way possible. www.nedaplibrary.com Below table When looking for a good spot to mount the antenna, make sure the table doesn’t have any metals near the antenna (field). When a good spot is found, you will need 4 fastening screws (corresponding to your table material), and a drill to prepare the table. Tape the template (which you can cut out from the next page) on the surface where you want to place the antenna. Make sure to take into account the minimum distances from the sides of the template. These go both ways. Open up the MidRange Antenna, by carefully removing the screws on the bottom of the product. Put the hood in the desired position, and drill four holes through the hood into the table while holding the hood in place. Make sure to use a smaller drill than the diameter of the screw, so that the screw will tap itself further into the table. TIP: Use DuctTape, or a clamp to keep the hood in place, whilst drilling the holes and mounting the hood with the screws. (Remove when remounting the bottom) Re-attach the bottom of the antenna to the mounted hood. Be careful not to destroy the thread in the mounting points of the hood when doing so. Reader The reader itself can also be placed on top of a table, or can be mounted under a table, or against a wall. The reader is mounted using three screws. Always make sure that none of the cables is under any stress when mounting the reader. On table Get the rubber feet from the packaging, and place these under the reader casing to make sure it will not scratch the surface that it will be placed upon. Below table or on wall The reader can also be mounted under a table, or against a wall. This can be done using 3 screws, supplied with the reader. Predrill the three holes in the surface. The pattern for these holes can be found in the drawing T5760925-40.01. Place the top two screws, and screw them in so that the head of the screw is only 1 or 2 mm out of the surface. Remove the hood of the MidRanger by levering a screwdriver carefully in the opening at the front of the reader. Slide the MidRanger onto the two screws, and place the third and final screw. Snap the hood back onto the reader. 10 www.nedaplibrary.com First setup Before connecting and switching the reader on, make sure to download the drivers and the RF.Test Lite tool on the computer which is going to be used to configure the reader. The drivers and RF.Test Lite can be found on the support site (http://www.nedaplibrary.com/support). Although the reader can be connected to the network via Ethernet, the reader will always need to be set up the first time via USB. Connect the reader to the computer with the drivers, using the USB cable. The product can now be configured with the RF.Test Lite tool. Find out which virtual COM-port is corresponding to the RFID reader, by checking its settings in the device manager ( > Control Panel > Devices and Printers > Device Manager). The reader will be called ‘Silicon Labs CP210x USB to UART Bridge (COM#)’ under ‘Ports (COM & LPT)’. The number between the brackets is the number that you will need to configure the reader. Note: Whenever the reader is disconnected and reconnected, it could get a new COM-port number. Now you may start the RF.Test Lite tool, press the CFG button, and select the correct COM-port according to the number you’ve just found in the Device Manager. Now the Reader is connected via USB, and you may alter the settings under the ‘TUNING’ button. 11 IP Networking To change the IP-address of the reader, the reader needs to be connected with an RS232 or USB connection to the pc. When a different IP-address is configured the changes are effectively immediate, so when connected over the network, the connection will be lost immediately. 1. Press the ‘Tuning’ button in the bottom right corner of the ‘Communication Setup’ window. 2. RfTest.Lite will now read all the settings from the reader. This will take a few seconds. When it has finished, the ‘Reader Settings’ window will appear. 3. The ‘Reader Settings’ window has different tabs which all configure different settings. See chapter 4 for a more detailed explanation of this window. 4. Select the ‘IP Networking’ tab. 12 www.nedaplibrary.com 5. Here you can find the following settings: a. b. c. RFID IP: IP address of RFID reader RFID Subnet: Subnet address of the RFID reader RFID Gateway: Gateway of the reader 6. It is also possible to put the reader in DHCP mode, so it will get an IP-address from a local DHCP server in the network during power-up. In the ‘Communication Setup’ window the current IP-address of the reader can be retrieved by using the ‘Get DHCP Status’ button. With the ‘DHCP Request’ button a manual DHCP request can be performed. When changing a setting, the setting will be saved when another field is activated via the ‘Tab’ key or by clicking another field with the mouse. RFID modes In this tab, the following settings can be changed: RFID Protocol: choose either the Icode or ISO15693 protocol, or set it to Combi for both. Signal: choose the Power and Modulation from 0 to 255, 0 being lowest and 255 being highest. MUX: when using a MUX, here you may select how much antennas you’ve connected and how high the MUX switching time should be in milliseconds. Synchronization: enable you to synchronize multiple readers. Power control: Use the sync-In to control the power of the reader. 13 EAS This tab shows the settings for an EAS or an AFI alarm. 14 Alarm: Check to switch the relais/beeper upon the detection of a tag Alarm Type: Select the type of alarm (note: this type will also be programmed when enabling/disabling the alarm on a tag using the appropriate commands) EAS Settings: Edit the EAS beeper length and relais lengths AFI Settings: Edit the settings for the AFI alarm www.nedaplibrary.com ISO 15693 / I-Code 15 Monitor This tab enables the different Monitor settings to be changed. Monitor Enabled: when monitoring is enabled, the reader will send out UDP packets over the network with the data of a detected RFID label. It will only do this when EAS is enabled. Ip: Fill in the IP address of the pc where the UDP packets should be sent to Port: Give the port number for connecting to the IP address. Default port is 7001 Notes See the BiblioCheck4 Monitor document to see how the packets can be received and handled. EAS needs to be turned on for the monitor function to work For ISO15693 tags this function will only work when in AFI mode. Then the UID and data of a tag is transmitted in a packet When an optionally UHF module is connected, the EPC number of an UHF tag is transmitted in the data field of the udp packet. The UID (or ID) field of the packet contains the 64bit truncated version of this EPC number. See the BiblioCheck4 Monitor document. All the settings of the configuration can be found in the RF.Test Lite manual (this manual can also be found on the Nedap library support site). 16 www.nedaplibrary.com Operation of product Setup Screw the SMA connector from the Antenna tightly on the Reader. Then connect the USB and/or the Ethernet cable to connect it to your laptop or network. The last connector is the power cable, which you use to switch the setup on or off. Switching on/off To switch the reader on, connect the supplied 12V power adapter, and plug it in. To switch the reader off, disconnect the power adapter. Use of antenna The antenna can be connected with the SMA-connector to the reader. The antenna is designed so that you can slide over one item at a time, or you can stack the items upon it. TIP: Make sure that the tag of an item is in the Antenna Field when you want to scan it. It might happen that your item is bigger than the reader. In that case, if the reader doesn’t see the book, try to move the large item through the antenna field, making sure that all the edges of the book will be in the antenna field, until te reader recognizes the item. 17 Maintenance Software It is always recommended to update the software versions to the latest version, which can be downloaded from the Nedap Library website: http://www.nedaplibrary.com/support. This should at least be done once a year, during a maintenance check. Cleaning instruction The Antenna and reader should be cleaned in three steps: 1) Clean with a damp cotton cloth 2) Clean with a dry microfiber cloth 3) Apply a Stainless Steel cleaner to the stainless steel parts. Do not use any solvents, abrasives, alcohol, spirit, thinners or other harsh cleaning liquids. 18 www.nedaplibrary.com Frequently Asked Questions Question 1.: Why are there not yet any FAQ’s?
