The ST-656 tag’s unique C-clamp door-mount design places the sensitive RFID components inside the shipping container. Only the low profile, external antenna casing is on the outside of the container, which significantly reduces the risk of tag damage during the loading, unloading, and transportation of shipping containers. Figure 1: Savi ST-656 Container Security Tag (Front view) Antenna Savi ST-656 Container Tag Installation Guide Figure 2: Top view Door Clamp Inside Outside Antenna Figure 3: Rear view Tag ID number Model number USB port Battery compartment Features Features • ISO 18000-7 compliant active RFID tag for tracking shipping containers • Unique C-clamp door-mounted design greatly reduces risk of damage to the tag • 128 Kbytes of programmable database memory enables tag to support multiple applications • 400-foot (122m) omnidirectional, line-of-sight range • Replaceable battery with typical life of five years • Supports low-frequency technology for more precise locating capabilities • Supports USB operation for reading and writing • FCC, HERO, ETSI, RoHS (Directive 2002/95/EC) certified Activating the Tag The tag is shipped in sleep mode. You must remove and re-insert the battery to wake up the tag. After you re-insert the battery, you can initialize the tag. 1. Remove the battery cap. Turn to open Remove battery as shipped Savi ST-656 Container Tag Installation Guide 2. Remove the battery. Wait a few seconds and then reinsert the battery, matching the negative (–) and positive (+) terminals to the symbols shown on the tag housing. The tag will not work if you install the battery in the wrong direction (reversed). Correct battery orientation Turn to open Correct battery orientation Whenever a battery is inserted into a tag, the tag will emit 5 beeps. Then, if the tag emits a long (1/2 second beep), that means it has an internal sensor failure. Then, the tag will emit 2 short beeps to indicate adequate battery voltage or 3 short beeps if a fresh battery is required. Whenever a battery is inserted into a tag, the tag assumes that it is a fresh battery. Inserting a used battery into a tag may result in what appears to be a premature battery failure. Initializing the Tag 3. Replace the battery cap on the tag. Continue tightening the cap until it is secure. Improper O-ring exposed Proper O-ring hidden Turn cap until tight If the O-ring is not properly compressed by the cap, water leakage and damage may occur. Note: When the tag is not in use, disable the tag by removing, reversing, and re-inserting the battery. Store the battery at room temperature (50-80 °F or 10-27 °C ). Initializing the Tag Once you activate the tag, you can initialize it for immediate use. 1. Unplug the USB port cover. 2. Insert the USB cable into the USB port on the tag and connect the other end to the USB port on the computer. Savi ST-656 Container Tag Installation Guide USB cable 3. Refer to the Savi SmartChain Mobile User Guide or the Savi Smart- Chain WorkStation User Guide for instructions on the initialization process. Placing the Tag for Best Performance Savi Technology recommends that you mount the tag on a flat surface, with the tag aligned vertically. For best performance, place the tag as high as possible, safe from impact (for example, between the ribs of an ISO-type shipping container), and away from obstructions on the asset. For best performance, make sure the tag is: • Mounted on a metal surface. • Mounted at no less than a 6 foot (1.8m) elevation. • Mounted vertically. • Not mounted behind or between metal objects 10 Placing the Tag for Best Performance • Mounted on the container door higher than the closing and locking mechanism. The next figure shows an example of a security tag mounted on an ISO container door. Figure 4: Security tag mounted on an ISO container door Note: Make sure you clean the surface of the container or other asset before attaching the tag. The tag will have 400-foot (122m) read/write range to Savi SR-650 Fixed Readers. For the most consistent communications with the tag, the Fixed Readers must be mounted: • to have an unobstructed line-of-sight to the tag • at 20 feet (6m) or higher Follow the instructions in the Savi Fixed Reader documentation to locate and position the Savi Fixed Reader for best performance. 11 Savi ST-656 Container Tag Installation Guide Mounting the Tag 1. Open the right door of the container. 2. Using both hands, push the C-clamp on the tag onto the edge of the left door until it is on as far as it can go. Left door outside view 3. Close the right door. 12 Left door inside view Replacing the Battery Replacing the Battery The tag is equipped with non-volatile memory, which means stored data is not lost when you replace the battery. 1. Remove the battery cap. 2. Remove the discharged battery from its compartment. For more information, see “Activating the Tag” on page 7. The lithium battery can be harmful to the environment. Follow current procedures for safely disposing of lithium batteries. The battery cannot be reused or recharged. 3. Install a 3.6V lithium "A" battery, matching the negative (–) and posi- tive (+) terminals to the symbols shown on the tag housing. The tag will not work if you install the battery in the wrong direction (reversed). 4. Replace the battery cap on the tag. Whenever a battery is inserted into a tag, the tag will emit 5 short beeps, one second apart. Then, if the tag emits a long (1/2 second beep), that means it has an internal sensor failure. Remove the battery and insert it again. If the tag emits the same long (1/2 second) beep, do not use the tag. Then, the tag will emit 2 short beeps to indicate adequate battery voltage or 3 beeps to indicate inadequate battery voltage. 3 short beeps means the tag needs a fresh battery. Whenever a battery is inserted into a tag, the tag assumes that it is a fresh battery. Inserting a used battery into a tag may result in what appears to be a premature battery failure. After the beep, continue tightening the cap until it is secure. 13 Savi ST-656 Container Tag Installation Guide Contacting Savi Support If you cannot find the information you need, contact Savi Support Services. • Check http://supportcenter.savi.com for contact information. • Send an email to help@savi.com. • Call 1-888-994-SAVI (North America only) or 1-650-316-4760 between 5 a.m. and 5 p.m. Pacific time.
