1. Introduction
The AY-U920BT is a UHF and Bluetooth reader that is available with versions in
both UHF frequencies (865-868 and 902-928 MHz) and supports Bluetooth
BLE frequencies and protocols. Two associated apps for iOS and Android
smartphones made by Rosslare can be used with the reader – BLE-ID credential
app and BLE-Admin configuration app – for programming operational settings.
The reader is waterproof (IP65) and is suitable for use in a wide range of RFID
applications, such as transport management, vehicle management, car
parking, production process control, and access control.
The reader supports the following functions:
Reading UHF hard credential
Reading BLE soft credential
Transmitting credential ID to the controller
Acting based on controller’s input (allowing access or not)
Self-update
Reconfiguration provided by credential (soft or hard) or by PC SW
The AY-U920BT series includes the following models:
AY-U920BT-US: 902–928 MHz (America)
AY-U920BT-EU: 865–868 MHz (Europe)

3. Mounting
Installing an RFID reader adjacent to metallic surfaces might alter the reader’s
specifications. To diminish this interference, use a plastic spacer when mounting
the reader.
3.1 General
There are two methods that can be used when installing the reader.
1-Shaped Stand Bracket Side-Loaded
L-Shaped Stand Bracket Top-Loaded
Each installation method is selected based on application requirements and
actual location.
3.1.1 1-Shaped Stand Bracket Side-Loaded
In this method, the stand pole should have a diameter of between 50 and
60 mm (2 to 2.4 in.) and a height of 2.2 m. The pole should be made of
stainless steel with a thickness of at least 1.2 mm (0.05 in.).
Use the bracket contained in the package box to mount the AY-U920BT reader
to the top of the stand pole depending on actual vehicle type (mainly large car
and small car) (Figure 1).
Figure 1: 1-shaped Stand Bracket Side-Loaded
Adjust the height from the center of AY-U920BT reader to lane level to be
around 2.0 m (6.5 ft).

3.1.2 L-Shaped Stand Bracket Top-Loaded
In this method, the L-shaped stand pole should have a diameter of between 60
to 80 mm (2.4 to 3.1 in.) and a height of 4.2 m (13.8 ft). The pole should be
made of stainless steel with the thickness of at least 1.2 mm (0.05 in.).
Use the bracket contained in package box to mount the AY-U920BT reader to
the rail near the center of the lane (Figure 2).
Figure 2: L-shaped Stand Bracket Loaded
Adjust the height between the rail and the ground to between 3.5 to 4.0 m
(11.5 to 13 ft), depending on the height of vehicle.

3.1.3 Adjusting the Azimuth Angle of Antenna
The angle of inclination with the ground plane of the antenna should be
approximately 60° to 75° (Figure 3), while the deviation angle of the antenna
should be biased towards the lane direction (Figure 4).

Wiring
12 AY-U920BT-US Installation and User Manual
4. Wiring
The units are supplied with a 5 m (16.4 ft) 10-conductor pigtail with exposed
wires coated with solder (see Figure 5).
Figure 5: Wiring Colors
To connect the unit as a reader to an access control unit:
1. Select the appropriate connections according to Table 1.
2. Prepare the controller cable by cutting its jacket back about 3 cm (1¼")
and strip the insulation from the wires about 1.3 cm (½").
3. Splice the reader’s pigtail wires to the corresponding controller wires and
cover each joint with insulating tape.

4. Trim and insulate the ends of all unused conductors individually. Do not
short any unused wires together.
• The individual wires from the reader are color coded according the Wiegand
standard.
• When using a separate power supply for the reader, this supply and that of
the controller must have a common ground.
• The reader’s cable shield wire should be preferably attached to an earth
ground, or a signal ground connection at the panel, or the power supply end
of the cable. This configuration is best for shielding the reader cable from
external interference.
Operation Instructions
14 AY-U920BT-US Installation and User Manual
5. Operation Instructions
After wiring the unit to a controller (POWER, GND, D0, D1), you should test
the reader.
To test the reader:
1. Power up the reader. One beep is emitted and then it begins an auto-
calibration procedure. After 2 seconds, the reader enters working mode.
2. Present the appropriate type of credential to the reader. A short beep is
emitted, indicating that the credential is read properly.
