1. SETTING UP DEVICES & RF NETWORK
Rest of the manual guides you through the steps necessary for setting up and configuring
your Sanitag devices. Please read this manual before system setup.
1.1. Safety
The device must be used solely with its original power adaptor. Please note that the
adapter is 110/220V AC
1.2. Introduction
Sanitag devices are based on 2.4GHZ IEEE 802.15.4 compliant RF wireless network. To
form a minimal 802.15.4 RF Network, you should have at least 1-Router, 1-Reader and
Mobile Devices.
Main coordinator (router) establishes a mesh network once it is installed. Each plugged
reader (receiver), attends this network automatically and relays data for the network. All
reader nodes cooperate in the distribution of data in the network.
Sanitag’s small sized newborn baby tag is affixed to the ankle of the newborn infant to be
tracked. The tag contains an RF transmitter circuit. It transmits message signal,
comprising unique identity information, to receivers which are strategically placed within
the hospital. The message is propagated along a path by hopping from node to node until
it reaches the port wihch is being listened by the Location Provider Service software.
Location Provider Software calculates tags’ positions by using RSSI (received signal
strength indicator) levels, dimensions of the region to be tracked and fixed position
information of the receivers on that region.

Calculated positions are being written on the Location Provider System database. These
positions can also be used in real time by remoting technology. This architecture provides
flexiblity in integration with third party softwares. Sanitag H-RTLS application comprises
an independent service which listens the Location Provider System database. It
interpretes fetched information and applies some business rules on it prior to UI
interaction.
Tags comprise a conductive security element attachment having two ends, whose
electrical state will change when stretched, severed, or removed by parting the end.
When the electrical state changes an alarm code will be generated and sent to receivers.
This information will then be processed as explained above.
Built in motion sensor is able to detect unnatural movements like falling, being idle for a
certain period of time etc. Alarm will be generated as soon as this kind of movement is
detected.
1.3. RF affecting factors
All devices's RF signals can affect some material some extent. İf our devices's RF signal
encounter some material especially high-level obstacle severity material as stated in
Table 1. Router, Reader and Tags will be decreased range of distance. For this reason,
all device have to position as far as possible from especially obstruction of high level
obstacle severity material as in Table 1.

5. If mobile devices are in standby mode, power them up by pressing power button.
You will see led’s power-up indication, and then green led will flash periodically.
The wireless network is ready to operate.
1.3. An Analogy on an Active Instance of the Location Provider
1. Run WipelotServiceManagerHealth.exe file from the Service Manager (Location
Provider Software). After this point, service manager screen will be opened as in
Figure 6.
Figure 6- Service Manager Screen (Disxonnected Network)
* Figure 6 implies that network is not connected. In the beginning of the same figure, serial port
and connection speed values can be seen.
2. In order to generate a network, room level readers and mobile devices are
activated. Some of them are illustrated in Figure 7, Figure 8, Figure 9.

3. After the activation of the devices network is constructed as can be seen in Figure
10. So this means that network information can be observed in Figure 10.

4. As can be seen from Figure- 9.B, Device ID of the reader is (which is coordinator)
100. In Figure 11, RNID number is circled where it is 100. So this means that
connection information of the router has been reached by the service manager.
RNID represents the reader identity number which is written to backside of every
reader device.
Figure 11-Service manager screen- 1(Reader is connected).
5. Then the second reader joined into the network with the device Id is equal to 303.
Thus service manager shows this device information on the screen as shown in
Figure 12 with a red circle. Note that the type of joined devices to the Rf network
are reader devices. Therefore RNID values are examined upto now.

6. Now, the AT-001-H type of end device will be joined to the Rf network which is
shown in Figure 7. The device Id of the mobile device is 50884 as in Figure 7.B.
When this mobile device enters the Rf network, MID information has to be read in
order to see whether the mobile is connected to the network or not. In Figure 13,
this phenomena is illustrated. In this figure, mobile device had been joined to the
network with the MID:50884.Remark that the MID is the abbreviation of mobile
device identity.

7. Finally, AT-004-H type of end device will be joined to the Rf network which is
shown in Figure 8.A. The device Id of the mobile device is 5837 as in Figure 8.B.
Since AT-004-H type of end device is a mobile device, MID information has to be
read in order to see whether the mobile is connected to the network or not.
As can be observed from the Figure 14, mobile device with MID: 5837 had been
entered to the network which is noticed with a red circle.

* Service manager screen - AT-004-H type mobile device is connected with device Id: 5837.
