RDR-7018BN-NEO is a long-range (35 to 50 feet) Radio Frequency Identification (RFID)
reader with TCP/IP interface and general purpose digital I/O (GP I/O - four (4) input four
(4) outputs) that works with most leading passive UHF passive tags. This reader comes
with a unique combination of long read range, small size, and low power consumption.
Its primary applications are toll collection, asset management and tracking, and fleet
management applications.
In order to control the RDR-7018BN-NEO reader you will need the following:



Computer with Network connection
Host software (demo software or your own custom software).
RFID Tags (EPC Class 1 Gen 2, ISO Type B, etc)

The four general-purpose inputs that use photo diodes are used to accept TTL input
commands. Each input requires 15 mA and 5V to activate. The four outputs are solidstate relays, with 0.03 uA off-state leakage current and the ability to sink 120 mA at a
breakdown voltage of 400V DC. All outputs are protected with reverse clamping diodes,
and ready to drive inductive loads. The floating arrangement eliminates any ground loop
considerations.

See Appendix 6.2 for wiring diagram of a sample application.
2.2. MEASURING READ DISTANCE
Make sure you know the tag types. For instance, EPC tags must be pre-programmed to
be read. For certain readers and tags, user must also be mindful of the tag’s orientation
and the reader’s antenna orientation, what mounting surface the tags are designed for
and how the tags are supposed to be mounted. Any departure from its intended purpose
will drastically affect the reader’s ability to energize the tag and its read range.
When measuring the reader’s read range, make sure that the tag is properly oriented to
the reader antenna, and for optimum performance, be sure the operator’s finger is not
within three (3) inches of the tag’s antenna surface.

3.2. PREPARATION FOR INSTALLATION
3.2.1. Bench Top Verification
It is always a good idea to verify system operation before committing to a full-scale
installation. The following are the necessary steps to test reader’s operation in a static
environment1.
 Connect reader to network with a RJ-45 cable at TCP/IP port
 Power up computer
 Load the and launch the demo program on installation PC. Try Connect after filling in
the IP address of reader and then some commands once connected.
 Connect the RJ-45 cable between the reader and connector labeled “Out” on the
PIPS48-0.3A, connect from Ethernet Hub/Switch to where “In” is labeled. Plug in
power
 Place the RFID tags on the exact same locations as the final configuration
 Measure tag’s read distance and confirm that read distance is correct.

3.3. INSTALLATION STEPS
o Check to ensure that all connections are secure. Make sure all wires through the
cable clamps are anchored properly; avoid dangling wires that may become a
safety hazard.
o Mount the Reader/Antenna using the eight screw posts to fasten to reader on the
desired mounting surface. In cases where the reader aiming is critical, please
order the antenna-mounting bracket that provides pan/tilt adjustment for the
reader.

4. Notes on Software Programming and System Operation
4.1. SET UP AND SYSTEM OPERATION
4.1.1. Setting Up RDR-7018BN-NEO
Power up with the 12-V power supply unit, connect to network through the Ethernet port
with RJ-45 cable.
4.1.2. Running a Custom Software Application or the Demo Program
If Demo Program is not used, it is expected user will launch a custom software
application to send commands defined in the Communication Protocol and/or the
supporting SDK to the reader.
4.1.3. Operating Modes
Applications can be developed to support typical operating modes for RDR-7018BN-NEO
readers as listed below.
Mixed Mode
This mode assumes the user is aware of the types of protocol in use, and furthermore, the
user made a determined effort to operate the reader in a mixed protocol mode. In this
mode, the user can decide how many and which specific protocols to be selected. Once
Mix Protocol Mode is selected, the reader will routinely cycle through each protocol, dwell
long enough for the reader to wait for a response and then move onto the next protocol. It
should be noted that in a mixed protocol mode, the tag must have sufficient time to
respond to the reader, and therefore, it can only be used on applications with specific
speed restrictions.
Single Protocol Mode
Single protocol is the normal mode of operation, where the protocol type is known and
many tags are expected to pass through the readers.

4.2. USERS NOTE
For System Integrators and/or Software Developers
System Integrators and/or Software developers should get familiar with the MPR
Communication Protocol (Reference I) specifications and/or the supporting SDK for
developing applications that control MPR network readers.
For Custom System Users
For custom system user, please refer to your host software user guide for information
regarding system and software operations
For Demo Software Users
If you are using the demo program which is .NET based with easy-to-follow GUI
operations, simply fill in the IP address of RDR-7018BN-NEO installed then click
“Connect” should get you started.
