TagMaster AB S1500 / S1501 Reader Data Sheet Issue 01 Functional description S1500 readers are a 2.45 GHz circular polarised read/write station for TagMaster RFID tags. Reading distance is typically up to 6 metres. The reader has 99 RF channels to eliminate interference of other nearby readers. Transmitted power and reception sensitivity is also adjustable with SW commands for optimising any installation. S1500 has a movement detection function for detecting people and vehicles, or even smaller objects, even if not using a tag. It can determine their moving speed in approaching or retreating directions. S1500 is user programmable and has a large memory for application programs and built in database functions for fast, customised and efficient stand-alone operation. User software is downloaded and saved in EEPROM through a serial communication line. If user programming is not required, there is a ready-to-use standard application SW in the reader. A local database in EEPROM can be loaded with over 15,000 tag entries for extremely fast readvalidate-activate response times. The ConfiTalk protocol is used for serial communication in a polled RS485 network or point-to-point in RS232 connections. There are ConfiTalk communication drivers available for 95/98/ME and NT/2000/XP with interface for C/C++, Delphi and Visual Basic. S1500 has two serial ports, a DTMF port for keypads, LED interfaces, relay, parallel I/O (emulating magcard data as an option). A control panel with a 7-segment LED display, two push buttons, a three colour LED, a buzzer and a reset button is available for local configuration and start up of test programs as installation aids. The unit can also be configured using a hand held computer or terminal connected locally. S1500 is sealed from water spray and dust. Noncorrosive materials are used in external parts. Connections are made through rubber bushings, or via cable glands in a steel back plane. Jackable screw connectors connect the wires. Built in DC/DC converters tolerate noisy voltages, provide low power consumption (3W) and can be set to 24 as well as 12 VDC Radiated 2.45 GHz signal Microwave/Antenna block Processor block I/O block RS 232a DTMF/LED Opto I/O DC supply RS 232b Relay RS 485 6 m reading range Range/channel setting by SW Tag programming Movement detection at up to 5 m 3-colour LED and buzzer User programmable C, Delphi and VB drivers Flash EEPROM database DTMF and LED interface Maintenance functions RS232 and 2/4 wire RS485 3 parallel in, 2 parallel out optoisolated.

A rubber gasket seals the unit. The standard board includes a Processor and I/O block with analogue and digital circuits, and is integrated with a Microwave and Antenna block. The antenna system is circular polarised and radiates through the front cover, with a lobe that is directed perpendicularly to the front surface of S1500. The lobe shape can be described as an ellipsoid with a circular cross section, as shown in the figure below. When dismounting the cover, it separates from the cable inlets to conveniently operate the unit also without cover. Screw connectors are jackable and in logical groups, i.e. it is not needed to disconnect each wire to replace the electronics. J1 J2 J3 J4 J5 J6 DTMF, LED, external tamper line RS232 for terminal RS232 and RS 485 for host Parallel out and relay Parallel in DC supply To hide the cables, S1500 can be connected via cable glands in the back plane. Dual tamper switches monitor that the cover is closed. When removed, a software as well as hardware alarm is generated. For service and setup purposes there is a control panel with a 7-segment LED display, 2 control buttons, a reset button, a LED and a buzzer. There are also jumpers for RS232/485 and 12/24V selection. CONFIDENT The reading and writing distances depend on the tag type and on the power and sensitivity SW settings. Typically, S1500 can read TagMaster tags at up to 6 m distance. See Reading/Writing range for details. A corrosion resistant mounting bracket that gives additional sealing for rough environments is separately available. It fits the mounting holes of S1500, and has a flexible joint for easy adjustment to different mounting angles. 236,6 8,7 120,0 J1 23,7 Diameter of holes: 4,2 mm J2 J3 J4 J5 J6 TagMaster AB S1500 / S1501 Reader Data Sheet Reading/writing range The maximum reading or writing range is defined as the maximum distance along the radiation axis where the tag can be communicated when the tag and reader face each other and when there is free space in between. The free space reading range for S1500 is up to more than 6 m (20 Ft). In a typical installation the reading range is up to 4m (13 Ft) Writing range is up to 0.25 m (0.8 Ft) The reading range depends on the tag reflectivity, the data speed (high/low), power output and sensitivity settings. If using low power and/or low sensitivity the reading range is reduced according to the following table. Range Sensitivity HIGH HIGH LOW LOW Power HIGH LOW HIGH LOW Range factor 100% 50% 25% 12% Writing must be done at high power. The writing range is normally not affected by speed and sensitivity settings. Lobe width The lobe diagram shows, in a proportional scale, the approximate lobe shapes of the S1500 and S1501 readers. Issue 01 Example: Your reading range has been calculated to 4.0 meters, meaning each square in the diagram is 4.0/10=0.4 meters. The lobe width at 70% range is then 5.5 squares * 0.4 = 2.2 meters. The diagram concerns a free space installation, and does not take into account possible influences from signal reflections or attenuating structures. For reliability reasons, it is recommended that tags are passing at 70 % or less of specified reading and writing range. Reading/writing time The time for reading and writing tags are specified in the tag data sheets. Please refer to the data sheet of the specific tag concerned. Passage speed The table shows the maximum allowed passage speed in km/h for combinations of tag reading time and lobe widths. Reading time [ms] 20 50 70 100 130 150 200 180 72 51 36 28 24 18 Lobe width [m] 1.5 2.0 2.5 270 108 77 54 42 36 27 360 144 103 72 56 48 36 450 180 129 90 69 60 45 3.0 540 216 154 108 83 72 54 Tag orientation Thanks to the circular polarisation, the reading and writing ranges are independent from the rotational orientation around the radiation axis. The reading time for the tag, can be found in the tag datasheets. If the ID tag is tilted in relation to the reader, a range reduction may occur. Since this effect depends mainly on the specific installation, it is recommended that a test is made. S1500 can be set to a "read beep" mode to conveniently check out the reading range. Movement detection Curves 4, 3, 2 and 1 show areas for safe reading for the four different combinations of power and sensitivity. S1500 detects a moving person or car at up to 5 meters (16Ft) distance, even when moving slowly.

The detection threshold can be set to different sensitivity levels. Software The readers are delivered with the pre-installed software Pyramid for standard applications. However, you can easily develop your own application software to be executed inside the reader. This will give you the full power of controlling the reader operation for flexible solutions and fast response times. 2006-06-07 ConfiTalk ConfiTalk is the standard serial communications protocol used by the readers. The protocol transfers data to and from a reader and handles flow control, retransmissions, checksums and data transparency. It can be used both for pointto-point and multidrop networks, using a polling procedure. ConfiTalk can also be replaced by a user defined protocol. User application development Pyramid application For user application development there are complete software development kits (SDK) including compilers, loaders, tools, drivers and libraries supporting the complete development phase for reader applications as well as PC applications. Pyramid application operates stand-alone reading tags, validating according to a downloaded database white list, activating relays for valid tags and producing logs for a PC to collect on- or offline. Pyramid can also sense movements of people and vehicles using the movement detection. User applications C/C++ PC Communicator User or standard application Delphi ConfiLib DLL Visual Basic ConfiTalk RS232 RS485 ConfiLib Reader applications are developed in a PC environment with the cross compiler ConfiComp and can be executed in the PC for testing and debugging. The complete software is finally downloaded, using ConfiLoad, to the reader for permanent storage in EEPROM. PC applications are developed with any PC software development tool. For application programmers a ConfiTalk Commander is available for training and low level communications management. ConfiLib ConfiLib is a function library with hundreds of functions for reader management and ConfiTalk protocol handling. ConfiLib exist in versions both for readers and PC environments including DOS, Windows 3.1, 95/98/ME and NT/2000/XP. The reader version of ConfiLib is a function library package in C language. For PC environments, the ConfiLib API comes as dynamic link libraries (DLL) with C/C++ interface. There are also separate interface modules for Visual Basic and Delphi available. Typical functions include read/write/format tags, read/write/search database, HW/SW configuration, read/write I/O, ConfiTalk send/receive, timers, buffers, mail management, etc. Events Following events may trig actions: • A tag is read • A tag is read and found in the database (validated) • A movement is detected Actions For each event following actions may be specified: • The event is logged • The relay is pulled • The buzzer is turned on • The LED is set to different colours Alarms Following alarms can be generated: • Tamper switch alarm • Reset alarm Database The database in S1500 stores more than 15.000 tag identities. Movement detection When enabled, this feature can sense movements 5 meters away or at reduced ranges. Timer Relay activation time and tag timeout can be set. Logging All events and alarms are logged to be retrieved by a PC on- or off-line. Log size is 250-1000 events. Terminal For serial port configuration and local operating at installation time, an optional terminal can be connected to the terminal interface Check SW. Pyramid may also be set to Off mode without any stand-alone operation. Instead, all ConfiLib commands are available on the serial port interface for a PC controller. TagMaster AB S1500 / S1501 Reader Data Sheet Control panel setup Hardware Under the cover of the S1500 there is a control panel available for local configuration and operation without the need of a terminal or PC. Processor block 2006-06-07 The left black button is used for parameter selection and the right black button is used for value selection. The processor block includes a 16 bit microprocessor, 384 kByte Flash EEPROM, 100 byte EEPROM, 128 kByte SRAM and a bus interface for an external option board. Option boards are inserted in the lower position slot. Example to change the ConfiTalk address: Push the left button repeatedly until ‘Ad’ is displayed. Push the right button to display the current address. Repeat pushing the right button until the wanted address is displayed. Press the left button to save the configuration. When there are unsaved changes, the LED is red. Flash EEPROM is used for program code and databases while the small EEPROM may be used for configuration data. This information is retained even after DC power interruption for any period of time. Programs and configuration can therefore be downloaded at production time and remains unchanged even after transportation. The configuration is stored in non-volatile memory, and is retained after a power failure. The SRAM memory is used for program data, tag reading logs, reader mail messages, etc. To reset the reader to default configuration and erase the database, keep the two black buttons pushed while pressing the red reset button. . Release the buttons when the LED blinks yellow. Push the red button again. The processor block includes a real time clock (RTC) and a watchdog for automatic restart in case of software failure. To invoke the terminal interface Check SW in S1500, keep one of the two black buttons pushed while pressing the red button. A rechargeable backup battery for SRAM and RTC is automatically charged as soon as the unit is under voltage, and retains its voltage during two weeks after loss of power provided that the battery jumper is in the on position. Jumper settings There are jumpers for selecting if the second serial port should be RS232 or RS485 and if the RAM backup battery shall be connected. See figure below. Battery on Battery off Host RS232 (Tx) Host RS485 (Tx) Host RS232 (Rx) Host RS485 (Rx) Under the rightmost antenna, additional jumpers are available for setting the unit to 12 or 24 volt operation. Markings on the PC board indicate how to set these jumpers. The factory setting is 24 V.

The unit should however if possible be installed and used so that free space is available between the ID tag and the reader. If large reflecting surfaces are present in the reading zone, the antenna diagram may be distorted. In such a case, it is recommended to shorten the distance to the ID tag to achieve a stronger signal. The system works safely at all distances down to zero. If the reader is installed with a low grazing angle to a reflecting surface such as a road or floor, the multipath effect can increase the reading distance. Since the multipath effect may reduce the lobe width, a test is recommended to check the reader in such installations, e.g. with the ”Read Beep” test function available at the control panel. In the control panel, push the left black button until ”OP” is displayed. Press the right button until ”rb” is displayed. Press the left button again. In the read beep operation mode, a short beep is sounded from the buzzer every time a tag is read, thus helping to verify the actual reading zone at installation time. Restore the reader to normal operation mode by pressing the right button until ”On” is displayed and then press the left button. If several readers are to be operated close to each other, it is recommended to use different RF channels to avoid interference. There are 100 channels available. If tags are passing at a close distance from the reader it might be a recommendation to reduce the reading range to avoid unwanted readings of a remote tag. The range is reduced by setting of the power and sensitivity parameters. If the reader is to be used in wet conditions, the cable inlets should be oriented downwards. It is recommended to protect the reader from direct water spray or rain. Screened cables shall be used with the screens clamped according to the figure below. Note. The DTMF input may be disturbed if the DTMF cable is exposed to signals in the 1 - 3 MHz region and the prescribed test level (ETS 301 489) for conducted interference is exceeded. 2006-06-07 Warning: To comply with the FCC RF exposure limits, it is recommended that the reader is installed so that a separation distance of at least 20 cm (8 inches) from all persons is provided. Saccess To enable a quick start to TAGMASTER, the SACCESS Windows application is available for demonstration purposes. The main functionality is: • Tag reading • Tag writing • Stand alone capability with tag validation and relay activation • Database update • Event and action configuration • Logging events on screen and file • Reader serial port and address configuration S1501 stripped down version The Reader S1501 is a stripped down version of the S1500. It is based on the same hardware with the following differences. • Application SW: Solid which is used for host controlled applications. • 128 Kbyte Flash EEPROM for SW (No EEPROM database). • No 7-segment display. • No buzzer. • No HW support for 4 wire RS485. • 12V supply only. Standard voltage regulator instead of DC/DC converter. • No real time clock. ConfiLib emulates a real time clock in software with less accuracy.

Pyramid application Pyramid application operates stand-alone reading tags, validating according to a downloaded database white list, activating relays for valid tags and producing logs for a PC to collect on- or off-line. Pyramid can also sense movements of people and vehicles using the movement detection. Events Following events may trig actions: • A tag is read • A tag is read and found in the database (validated) • A movement is detected Actions For each event following actions may be specified: • The event is logged • The relay is pulled • The buzzer is turned on • The LED is set to different colours Alarms Following alarms can be generated: • Tamper switch alarm • Reset alarm Database The database in S1513 stores more than 15.000 tag identities. Movement detection When enabled, this feature can sense movements 5 meters (16.39 Ft) away or at reduced ranges. Timer Relay activation time and tag timeout can be set. Logging All events and alarms are logged to be retrieved by a PC on- or off-line. Log size is 250-1000 events. Terminal For serial port configuration and local operating at installation time, an optional terminal can be connected to the terminal interface Check SW. Pyramid may also be set to Off mode without any stand-alone operation. Instead, all ConfiLib commands are available on the serial port interface for a PC controller. Control panel setup Hardware Under the cover of the S1513 there is a control panel available for local configuration and operation without the need of a terminal or PC. Processor block The left black button is used for parameter selection and the right black button is used for value selection. The processor block includes a 16 bit microprocessor, 384 kByte Flash EEPROM, 100 byte EEPROM, 128 kByte SRAM and a bus interface for an external option board. Option boards are inserted in the lower position slot. Example to change the ConfiTalk address: Push the left button repeatedly until ‘Ad’ is displayed. Push the right button to display the current address. Repeat pushing the right button until the wanted address is displayed. Press the left button to save the configuration. When there are unsaved changes, the LED is red. Flash EEPROM is used for program code and databases while the small EEPROM may be used for configuration data. This information is retained even after DC power interruption for any period of time. Programs and configuration can therefore be downloaded at production time and remains unchanged even after transportation. The configuration is stored in non-volatile memory, and is retained after a power failure. The SRAM memory is used for program data, tag reading logs, communication mail messages, etc. To reset the communicator to default configuration and erase the database, keep the two black buttons pushed while pressing the red reset button. Release the buttons when the LED blinks yellow. Push the red button again. The processor block includes a real time clock (RTC) and a watchdog for automatic restart in case of software failure. To invoke the terminal interface Check SW in S1513, keep one of the two black buttons pushed while pressing the red button. A rechargeable backup battery for SRAM and RTC is automatically charged as soon as the unit is under voltage, and retains its voltage during two weeks after loss of power provided that the battery jumper is in the on position. Jumper settings There are jumpers for selecting if the second serial port should be RS232 or RS485 and if the RAM backup battery shall be connected. See figure below. Battery on Battery off Host RS232 (Tx) Host RS485 (Tx) Host RS232 (Rx) Host RS485 (Rx) Under the rightmost antenna, additional jumpers are available for setting the unit to 12 or 24 volt operation. Markings on the PC board indicate how to set these jumpers. The factory setting is 24 V. Connection diagram Hardware interface The I/O block comprise the following interface.

The unit should however if possible be installed and used so that free space is available between the ID tag and the communicator. If large reflecting surfaces are present in the reading zone, the antenna diagram may be distorted. In such a case, it is recommended to shorten the distance to the ID tag to achieve a stronger signal. The system works safely at all distances down to zero. If the communicator is installed with a low grazing angle to a reflecting surface such as a road or floor, the multipath effect can increase the reading distance. Since the multipath effect may reduce the lobe width, a test is recommended to check the communication in such installations, e.g. with the ”Read Beep” test function available at the control panel. In the control panel, push the left black button until ”OP” is displayed. Press the right button until ”rb” is displayed. Press the left button again. In the read beep operation mode, a short beep is sounded from the buzzer every time a tag is read, thus helping to verify the actual reading zone at installation time. Restore the communicator to normal operation mode by pressing the right button until ”On” is displayed and then press the left button. If several communicators are to be operated close to each other, it is recommended to use different RF channels to avoid interference. There are 100 channels available. If tags are passing at a close distance from the communicator it might be a recommendation to reduce the reading range to avoid unwanted readings of a remote tag. The range is reduced by setting of the power and sensitivity parameters. If the communicator is to be used in wet conditions, the cable inlets should be oriented downwards. It is recommended to protect the communicator from direct water spray or rain. Screened cables shall be used with the screens clamped according to the figure below. MHz region and the prescribed test level (ETS 300 683) for conducted interference is exceeded. Warning: To comply with the FCC RF exposure limits, it is recommended that the reader is installed so that a separation distance of at least 20 cm (8 inches) from all persons is provided. Saccess To enable a quick start to TagMaster products, the SACCESS Windows application is available for demonstration purposes. The main functionality is: • Tag reading • Tag writing • Stand alone capability with tag validation and relay activation • Database update • Event and action configuration • Logging events on screen and file • Communicator serial port and address configuration S1514 stripped down version The Reader S1514 is a stripped down version of the S1513. It is based on the same hardware with the following differences. • Application SW: Solid which is used for host controlled applications. • 128 Kbyte Flash EEPROM for SW (No EEPROM database). • No 7-segment display. • No buzzer. • No HW support for 4 wire RS485. • 12V supply only. Standard voltage regulator instead of DC/DC converter. • No real time clock. ConfiLib emulates a real time clock in software with less accuracy. Note.

TagMaster AB S1566 HD Reader Data Sheet 2006-06-07 General The Heavy Duty Reader S1566 is a read/write unit intended for RFID applications with very high requirements on electrical and mechanical endurance. The unit is designed to withstand railway requirements, being vehicle mounted in high power electromagnetic field. Mounting on underground train close to the power pick-up rail is an example where the S1566 is the ultimate choice. S1566 is a microwave based read/write heavy-duty station for RFID operating in the 2.45 GHz band which is possible to use all over the world. It communicates with ID-tags through antennas and communicates with host via standard interfaces. It is designed according to existing regulations for RFID equipment and railway standards. The reader is capable of reading TagMaster IDtags at a distance up to 6 m. The receiver circuitry uses digital processing techniques, which enables use in high-speed applications, such as for train or other vehicle identification, up to 400 km/h. The unit is DC powered from an external source. The design is made for installation in harsh environments and its construction protects it from water spray, dust and other environmental conditions. The Reader has a high performance synthesized frequency generator and a selective receiver. Tx/Rx parameters such as frequency, output power and sensitivity are software controlled, and the reception circuitry uses digital processing techniques. The Heavy Duty Reader S1566 operates at the 2.45 GHz ISM frequency band (Industrial, Scientific and Medical). This is widely used over the world without license requirement. On this high frequency (2.45 GHz) the communication is not affected by ignition and other electromagnetic disturbances that are generated from engines or electric equipment. TagMaster AB S1566 HD Reader Reading/writing range The maximum reading or writing range is defined as the maximum distance along the radiation axis where the tag can be communicated when the tag and reader face each other and when there is free space in between. The free space reading range for S1566 is up to more than 6 m (20 Ft). In a typical installation the reading range is up to 4m (13 Ft) Writing range is up to 0.25 m (0.8 Ft) The reading range depends on the tag reflectivity, the data speed (high/low), power output and sensitivity settings. If using low power and/or low sensitivity the reading range is reduced according to the following table. Range Sensitivity HIGH HIGH LOW LOW Power HIGH LOW HIGH LOW Range factor 100% 50% 25% 12% Writing must be done at high power. The writing range is normally not affected by speed and sensitivity settings. Lobe width The lobe diagram shows, in a proportional scale, the approximate lobe shapes of the S1566 readers. Data Sheet 2006-06-07 Curves 4, 3, 2 and 1 show areas for safe reading for the four different combinations of power and sensitivity. Example: Your reading range has been calculated to 4.0 meters, meaning each square in the diagram is 4.0/10=0.4 meters. The lobe width at 70% range is then 5.5 squares * 0.4 = 2.2 meters. The diagram concerns a free space installation, and does not take into account possible influences from signal reflections or attenuating structures. For reliability reasons, it is recommended that tags are passing at 70 % or less of specified reading and writing range. Reading/writing time The time for reading and writing tags are specified in the tag data sheets. Please refer to the data sheet of the specific tag concerned. Passage speed The table shows the maximum allowed passage speed in km/h for combinations of tag reading time and lobe widths. Reading time [ms] 20 50 70 100 130 150 200 180 72 51 36 28 24 18 Lobe width [m] 1.5 2.0 2.5 270 108 77 54 42 36 27 360 144 103 72 56 48 36 450 180 129 90 69 60 45 3.0 540 216 154 108 83 72 54 Tag orientation Thanks to the circular polarisation, the reading and writing ranges are independent from the rotational orientation around the radiation axis. The reading time for the tag, can be found in the tag datasheets. If the ID tag is very tilted in relation to the reader, a range reduction may occur. Since this effect depends mainly on the specific installation, it is recommended that a test is made. TagMaster AB S1566 HD Reader Data Sheet 2006-06-07 Software The readers are delivered with the preinstalled TagMaster software Solid software for standard applications. Should the option realtime clock, built-in database or I/O be selected, the reader can be pre-installed with TagMaster Pyramid software. The software platform in the reader allows the user to develop their own application software However, you can develop your own application software which can be downloaded and to be executed inside the reader. This will give youwill give the user the full power control overof controlling the reader’s operation for flexible solutions and fast response times. User application development For user application development there is a complete software development kits (SDK) including compilers, loaders, tools, drivers and libraries supporting the complete development phase for reader applications as well as PC applications. ConfiLoad ConfiLoad is Windows software that “downloads” a reader application to the reader over standard RS232. This provides the possibility to easily upgrade readers without replacing the EEPROM. ConfiLib ConfiLib is a function library with hundreds of functions for reader management and ConfiTalk protocol handling. ConfiLib exists in versions both for readers and PC environments including DOS, Windows 3.1, 95/98/ME and NT/2000/XP. The reader version of ConfiLib is a function library package in C language. For PC environments, the ConfiLib API comes as dynamic link libraries (DLL) with C/C++ interface. There are also separate interface modules for Visual Basic and Delphi available. ConfiTalk ConfiTalk is the standard serial communications protocol used by the readers. The protocol transfers data to and from a reader and handles flow control, retransmissions, checksums and data transparency. It can be used both for point-topoint and multidrop networks, using a polling procedure. Reader applications are developed in a PC and the complete software is downloaded, using ConfiLoad, to the reader for permanent storage in EEPROM. PC applications are developed with any PC software development tool. For application programmers a ConfiTalk Commander is available for training and low level communications management.
