Introduction
Version 2.01
1 Introduction
EFP (EasyFuel Plus) is an automated refueling system based on wireless
communication between the system components.
The system utilizes 13.56MHz proximity technology for interfacing between the
vehicle and the fuel dispenser and longer range UHF communication for wireless
interfacing to the EF Site Controller which is mounted in the site office
The new RFN (RF Nozzle) unit, together with the new EF passive RFID vehicle tag, is
OTI's latest addition to the EFP Family which also includes:

EF-SC (Site Controller)
The Site Controller is an RF transceiver, mounted in the site office, serving as
an interface between the EFP system and the station refueling control system. It
operates at 433MHz or 902-928MHz frequency ranges, depending on the
locally allocated frequency slots.

EF-VID (Vehicle IDentification) vehicle tag
The VID is a microcontroller based in-vehicle device, utilizing vicinity range
receiver for reading the NID (Nozzle IDentification) signal and UHF
transceiver for communication with the Site Controller. It communicates to the
SC the combined information of the vehicle data and the nozzle ID so as to
enable proper refueling control. The vehicle data may include more
sophisticated data elements like the odometer reading. The EF VID derives its
power from the vehicle battery.

NID (Nozzle IDentification)
The NID is a self-contained, battery operated, very low power 13.56MHz RF
transmitter that slips over the fuel nozzle spout. The NID identifies the nozzle
ID to the VID.

Passive RFID vehicle tag
The new passive RFID vehicle tag enables the RFN to read the vehicle basic ID
information and to transfer the combined information of the vehicle and the
nozzle ID data to the SC so as to enable proper refueling control. This way the
use of VID may be avoided unless more sophisticated vehicle information is
required as mentioned above.

2. EFP RF Nozzle
2.1 Product description
The RFN (RF Nozzle) is mounted on the refueling nozzle and serves as an
interface between the refueled vehicle and the station SC (Site Controller) to
facilitate controlled and secured refueling. It is a battery powered unit,
comprising three different transceivers:
RFID 13.56MHz transceiver: Communicate with passive RFID vehicle tag.
NID 13.56MHz transmitter: Transmit the nozzle ID to the VID vehicle tag.
SC UHF transceiver: Communicate with the SC.
All the transceivers operate under the control of a local microprocessor.
2.2 Product Features
 Bi-directional proximity 13.56MHz interface with passive RFID vehicle
tags according to ISO15693 Vicinity cards standard.
 Unidirectional proximity 13.56MHz interface to VID vehicles tags.
 Long range UHF interface to the Site Controller.
 Flexible, software configurable microprocessor based design.
 Compliance with FCC Section 15 Radio requirements.
 Compliance with IEC/EN60079-1 & IEC/EN60079-11 safety
requirements for operation in Hazardous area.
 Operating temperature range -20° to +60°C (-4° to 140°F).
 Powered by replaceable Lithium battery.
 Quick and simple installation.

2.3 Operational Scenarios
Vehicle with passive RFID tag:
When the nozzle is inserted into the vehicle refueling inlet the RFN reads data from the
passive RFID vehicle tag and transmits it together with its own identity to the site
controller. Fuel is dispensed once the transaction is authorized. Fuel is dispensed as
long as the RF Nozzle detects the presence of the passive RFID tag. If the nozzle is
retracted from the refueling inlet so that the RFID tag is not detected the RFN informs
the system to stop dispensing fuel.

Vehicle with VID vehicle tag:
When the nozzle is inserted into the vehicle refueling inlet the RF nozzle periodically
transmit its NID to the VID which transmits it together with its own identity to the site
controller. Fuel is dispensed once the transaction is authorized. Fuel is dispensed as
long as the VID detect the NID signal from the RFN (or the NID). If the nozzle is
retracted from the refueling inlet so that the NID signal is not detected, the VID informs
the system to stop dispensing fuel.

3. Installation
RFN Battery Connector
Figure 3-1: Battery Installation
3.1 Battery Connection
The RFN unit is supplied with the battery connector disconnected. To connect the
battery open the four cover screws, remove the RFN top cover and connect the battery
connector to the RFN battery connector.
After connection stuff the battery cable into the niche by the battery as shown in the
figure 3-1 above, return the RFN top cover and close the four cover screws.
Note: The male and the female parts of the two pin battery connectors are interlocked
to avoid reverse connection. If mating is resisted - reverse direction and try again.
3.2 Mounting
Insert the RFN and its adaptor ring over the fuel nozzle spout and saddle it on the fuel
nozzle base. Use 2mm Allen key to close the RFN locking screws and lock the RFN
firmly in place.
3.3 Initialization
For proper field operation the RFN firmware needs to be configured with few
parameters associated with the specific installation. The most important parameter is an
ID number associated with the specific nozzle it is mounted on. The configuration is
performed utilizing a special HHT (Hand Held Terminal) device. The detailed
procedure is contained in the user manual of the HHT.
