Fully compatible with Savi software and fixed and portable Savi readers, this tag features omnidirectional line-of-sight communication. Battery life, using lithium cells, is typically four years (depending on the type of operation). The Savi SensorTag ST-674 is safe for operation around live ordnance. It is also compatible with the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) In-transit Visibility (ITV) network and can be detected by existing Savi RFID infrastructure. Features ◆ Temperature and humidity sensors provide updated information about the environment that the tag is in ◆ 433 MHz, active RFID technology with up to 300-foot (91.44 meters) range for monitor, wake-up, and RF write/read ◆ 123 KHz receiver for slot-level, portal, or chokepoint tag wake-up and short range commissioning (12 feet (3.7 meters) or less) ◆ Audible beeper helps locate tag ◆ Small form factor design ◆ Rugged, weatherproof design ◆ Powered by a replaceable lithium battery Savi SensorTag ST-674 Installation Guide CHAPTER About the Savi SensorTag ST-674 Tag Description The temperature sensor inside the tag gauges the surrounding environment’s temperature when air passes through this vent Environmental Sensors The environmental sensors monitor and record the temperature and humidity of the tag’s surrounding area at user-specified times in an environmental log. You can set maximum and minimum temperature and humidity threshold. If the temperature or humidity should rise above or fall below the threshold, the device writes the time and date of the deviation to an alarm log and sends an RF beacon to surrounding fixed readers. For example, if you are monitoring in an area that needs to be kept at temperatures between x and y degrees to preserve a product, you can set the Savi SensorTag ST-674 to RF beacon mode and record the date and time whenever the temperature deviates from your specified range. RFID Communication Module The communication module operates at 433 MHz, enabling the Savi SensorTag ST-674 to communicate back to the Savi network with excellent RF performance in both metallized and non line-of-sight environments.

Before you attempt to commission a tag, refer to Guide to Savi SmartChain for Mobile Devices to wake the tag. Note: You can also remove and re-insert the battery to wake up the tag. You must wait a few seconds before re-inserting the battery. You can commission Savi SensorTag ST-674 using Savi Tag Write Cable STA-1030, Savi Tag Write Cable Adapter STA-1031, or docking station with a docking station adapter model SDSA-654-01. You can purchase these units separately. Savi SensorTag ST-674 Installation Guide CHAPTER Installing the Tag Commissioning the Tag with a Tag Write Cable or Tag Write Cable Adapter 1. Connect Savi Tag Write Cable STA-1030 or Savi Tag Write Cable Adapter STA-1031 to an available serial port on the host computer. 2. Locate the tag commissioning port on the tag. 3. Unplug the rubber cap covering the port. 4. Insert Savi Tag Write Cable STA-1030 or Savi Tag Write Cable Adapter STA-1031, with the LED up, into the tag commissioning port. Start the tag commissioning application. The LED is lit when the application writes data to the tag. 10 LED visible Savi SensorTag ST-674 Installation Guide Commissioning a Tag Commissioning the Tag with a Savi Docking Station and Docking Station Adapter 1. With the Savi EchoPoint label right-side up, insert the adapter into the docking station until the adapter stops. The adapter has a magnetic contact that adheres to the Savi Docking Station SDS-2002 when fully inserted. 2. Unplug the rubber cap covering the write port on the tag and ensure that the Savi EchoPoint label on the tag is upside down. Note the lit Contact LED on the docking station. The tag is ready for commissioning. 3. Start the tag commissioning application. When the tag commissioning application writes data to the tag, the Data LED is lit. Savi SensorTag ST-674 Installation Guide 11 CHAPTER Installing the Tag Replacing the Main Battery Savi SensorTag ST-674 is equipped with non-volatile memory and contains a backup battery to maintain the real-time clock that is not replaceable. To conserve battery life of the backup battery, refer to Guide to Savi SmartChain for Mobile Devices to turn off the UHF transceiver and return the tag to sleep mode when the tag is in storage. 1. Turn the battery cover counterclockwise. When removing the battery cover, hold on to it to avoid dropping it. 2. Remove the discharged battery from its compartment. Warning: The lithium battery can be harmful to the environment. Follow current procedures for safely disposing of lithium batteries. 3. Install an A 3.6V lithium battery, matching the negative (–) and positive (+) terminals to the symbols shown on the Savi SensorTag ST-674 housing. The tag will not work if you install the battery in the wrong direction (reversed). 12 Savi SensorTag ST-674 Installation Guide
