System Overview
3.2 Brief L-SP2 Description
The components of the L-SP2 EAS system are contained within the L-SP2 pedestal. At
least two pedestals are required for each EAS gate. A set of pedestals is known as a gate and may
consist of several pedestals. Please see section 4 “Installation” for more information.
The L-SP2 is built in a one frame:
A L-SP2 Electronics unit is used to control each pedestal. This electronics unit
generates the RF signal transmitted by the antennas and picks up the reply from the
RFID tag. If an activated RFID tag is detected, the electronics unit will activate the
alarm of the LED/buzzer board on the pedestal.
These antennas are sensitive receivers used to detect the theft bit status of the RFID
tag as it passes through the EAS gate.
A warning visual and audible device (LED/Buzzer board)
A remotely accessible people counter equipped with a photoelectric sensor
To operate, the L-SP2 will only need a power supply cable.
In standard configuration the Ethernet interface is not provided. If the Ethernet version is
chosen then provide a second sheath for the Ethernet cable.

4.3.2 Placement of Pedestals
Pedestals must be mounted between 800 and 915 mm apart (edge to edge) for maximum
reliable performance. There should be at least one pair of pedestals at each entrance/exit point of
the library. There should be a pedestal at each edge of the entrance, and a clear space of at least
500 mm around the edge of the pedestals to ensure that the antennas will not be detuned. This
clear space must not contain any metallic objects, but may contain some substrates such as nonmetallic/non-conductive building materials such as wood, glass, chipboards and plasterboards.
CAUTION: In case several pedestal row to be installed it is recommended every L-SP2 gate
being positioned in the same direction (the people counter of each looking toward the same
direction)
Be cautious to properly align the pedestal in order to centre the photoelectric beam sensor on the
reflector of the next pedestal.
CAUTION: Each L-SP2 should be installed within following tolerances:
Horizontal angular alignment tolerance with reference to pedestals alignment: 0° +/-2°
Vertical angular tolerance with reference to ground surface : 90° +/-1°

4.3.3 Installing the Pedestal
Once the L-SP2 will be powered, the photoelectric sensor will emit a red light beam. To
precisely align the sensor and the reflector, an orange LED is present on the back of the
photoelectric sensor. When the orange LED is continuously on, the sensor and the reflector are
perfectly aligned.
Orange LED
Figure 6: Photoelectric sensor
On the contrary the orange LED is blinking, and then you have to adjust the photoelectric sensor,
so that the red light beam is centered with the opposite reflector. This operation is achieved using a
white paper to clearly see where the red light beam is pointed at. When perfectly centered, the
orange LED will continuously be ON.
Special attention must be taken for the 2 pedestals positioning:
They must be positioned face to face
They must be parallel
They must be aligned
The orange LED must be continuously ON when powered
Then the 2 pedestals can be secured to the ground.
A good positioning will ensure the red LED beam to be reflected by the reflector as shown below.

5 Configuration
All configuration operations of L-SP2 systems are carried on with the L-SP2 Configuration Utility
Software.
5.1 Chip Configuration
5.1.1 Scanning Duration
For optimal performance the scanning duration (Tscan) should not exceed 250ms. Tscan is
the period to scan all the pedestal of a group. Depending on your chip configuration and the
number of pedestal installed you can determine the scanning duration of your installation.
Table 2: Scanning Duration

Synchronization duration
Example 1: with a 3 pedestals system using the C220 + C370-EAS without Read-Memory
The scanning duration will be: Tscan = 6ms + (25ms+35ms) x 3 = 186ms
Example 2: with a 3 pedestals system using the 370-AFI + Read-Memory.
The scanning duration will be: Tscan = (6ms+65ms) x 3 = 213ms
5.1.2 EAS Mode versus AFI Mode
EAS mode is only supported by the C370 or C370-L (NXP chip). AFI mode is supported by every
ISO15693 chip, whatever the manufacturer (NXP, Texas Instrument, ST …).
In non-Read memory mode, EAS mode is faster than AFI mode, therefore it helps keeping a low
scanning duration in case of a high number of pedestals.
In Read memory mode, AFI mode will give better results. AFI mode will allow specific addressing
of items which are stolen. Therefore the LSP2 will be able to read the memory of multiple stolen
items.
This is not possible in EAS mode; the read memory can not be addressed using the EAS status of
the item. Therefore, the LSP2 will only read the memory of one item. In the case of one stolen item
among multiple checked-out items, the LSP2 would retrieve the memory of one of them, whatever
its EAS status.
5.2 Understanding the L-SP2 Synchronization Process
5.2.1 Standard Synchronization Mode
To manage a group of pedestal, a synchronization burst is sent by the master gate to all the
slaves’ gate. This is called the synchronization process.
26/62
Revision 4.2
July 2008
Configuration
Only one gate is defined to be the master who emits a synchronization burst to the slaves
in close proximity.
The other gates, configured as slave, synchronize themselves on the master’s burst, and if
they have a matching ID, scan the configured chip.
Default configuration of the L-SP2 is set to Master.

Tscan
Synchronization

Pt

SLAVE 3
SLAVE 4
Synchronization burst: start burst to synchronize the gates (Period of Tscan ms)
Processing time (Pt): depends on the number of chip types to be detected. The faster is
when only one chip type is selected (see Table 2: Scanning Duration).
The Tscan period is optimized according to the number of slaves and number of chips to
detect.
5.2.2 Special Synchronization Mode
Only used in ISO15693 (C370/C370-L/Tag-It) AFI mode with Read-Memory activated.
This mode has an identical Master/Slave configuration as described in the Standard
Synchronization mode.
Synchronization process:
1-
The master scans the configured chip, then send the synchronization burst to Slave1
2-
Slave1 scan the configured chip, then send the synchronization burst to Slave2
July 2008
Revision 4.2
27/62
Library Security Pedestal 2
3-
Slave2 scan the configured chip, and then send the synchronization burst back to the
master.
This process is repeated in an infinite loop mode.
In case of the master does not receive back the synchronization burst from the last slave after a
defined period, it will automatically restart the synchronization process.
In this particular mode we recommend to install a maximum of 3 pedestals in order to avoid
deteriorating the Tscan duration described in section 5.1”Chip Configuration”.
5.2.3 Wireless Synchronization
The L-SP2 is provided with a wireless synchronization system, however slaves too far from
the Master pedestal cannot be reached and the air synchronization signal is not transmitted to the
slaves pedestal, in this case synchronization by wire is mandatory.
In Standard Synchronization mode, section 5.2.1, if more than 5 pedestals are to be installed
or distance between pedestals exceeds the recommendation of section 4.3.2 “Placement of
Pedestals”, wire synchronization is mandatory.
When more than two pedestals are installed, it is recommended to install the Master in the middle
of the slave’s line for a better propagation and detection of the air synchronization burst.
Figure 12 below shows an example of optimal configuration.

5.2.4 Synchronization by Wire
In this case the L-SP2 configuration settings are not to be changed. There will always be one
L-SP2 Master and others pedestals set as Slaves. Each pedestal is connected to the other using a

Library Security Pedestal 2
For the Ethernet version, the first step is to allocate a unique IP address to each L-SP2.
This operation will allow identifying each L-SP2 on site before configuring them on the Ethernet
network.
By default the IP address is 169.254.0.100 (port 4001) (IPv4 Automatic Private IP
Addressing). Ask your network administrator to obtain a static IP address for each of the
pedestals connected to your local network.
Setting of L-SP2 IP addresses can be done in console mode using the HyperTerminal software via
the RS232 link on DB9 connector as shown in Figure 15.
Communication parameters are the followings:
Baud rate: 19200
Data bits: 8
Parity: none
Stop bit: 1

Configuration
The L-SP2 configuration will be carried on using a host computer connected to the local Ethernet
network.
You can localize the each gate thanks to their IP address. Their on site location must be
known to configure and set them as Slaves or Master.
5.4 Configuration of the L-SP2
“L-SP2 Configuration” is the software tool used to communicate and configure the L-SP2
pedestal. This software handles communication either using the serial port or Ethernet port.
Before you configure the whole L-SP2, you need to have a clear vision of which systems will
be the Masters or the Slaves. (Refer to section 5.2 “Understanding the L-SP2 Synchronization
Process”)
CAUTION: In a configuration case with several pedestals, as pedestal is default Master
configured, they will mutually perturb when powered on. So the first step will be to set the
Slaves pedestals chosen as Slave.
Depending on the L-SP2 version, the configuration of the whole L-SP2 installed on site is carried
on according to the following methods:
If the Ethernet version is selected on site; the whole L-SP2 configuration can be carried on
from a host computer connected to the local area network. Each L-SP2 is addressed
thanks to its own IP.
When the Ethernet version is installed, the L-SP2 configuration can only be carried on via the
Ethernet connection. The DB9 configuration connector as show Figure 15 is only used to set
the Ethernet interface and cannot be used to configure the L-SP2.
If the standard version is selected on site; the whole L-SP2 configuration will be carried on
after connecting each pedestal with the RS232 interface as shown in Figure 15, the
Master/Slave statute depending on neighboring systems.

it is the Master’s ID that the slave will answer to. For a Master/Slave system it is mandatory that all
the pedestals use the same ID.
In the library configuration example below we have:
system A with ID = 1 (M1 Master, S1, S2, S3 Slaves)
system B with ID = 2 (M2 Master, S1, S2 Slaves)
The Masters are disposed as far as possible from each other not to perturb themselves. (Please
refer to section 4.3.2 “Placement of Pedestals").

Configuration
When using Hardwire synchronization, as described in 5.2.4, there is no parameter to be defined.
When using Wireless synchronization, as described in 5.2.3, you have to carefully setup each
pedestal to ensure a proper synchronization.
Synchronization parameters in wireless mode
These parameter sets are defined as follow:
If set as master, the antenna is transmitting the synchronization burst
If set as slave, the antenna is receiving the synchronization burst
The detection level for receiving the synchronization burst.
According to the number of gates installed in close proximity the following rules will apply:
If the slave pedestal is directly facing the master then the slave antenna receiving the
synchronization pattern must not face the master-transmitting antenna.
If the slave pedestal is not directly facing the master then the slave antenna receiving the
synchronization pattern must face the master-transmitting antenna.

Detection level
If previous recommendations do not ensure the synchronization of all slaves then it is possible to
adjust the sensitivity of the non-synchronized slaves. You just have to adjust the detection level
until you get the required synchronization (LEDs flicking cyclically). Range detection level can be
configured between 50 up to 2000. Increasing the detection level value will reduce the sensitivity to
environmental noise.
Power
This parameter allows adjusting the power level of each pedestal. However you should not exceed
4W in order to comply with FCC and CE standard certification. It is possible to increase the power
but only to carry on tests.
CAUTION: In any case, for operational configuration this value should not exceed 4W to be
in compliant with FCC and CE rules.

Antenna Tuning
6 Antenna Tuning
The successful operation of the L-SP2 depends largely on:
The antenna being tuned to the correct resonance frequency (impedance),
Antenna isolation being adjusted to its optimal value.
During on-site tuning, antennas are decoupled to ensure that the minimum amount of energy is
delivered from one antenna to another.
Note that antennas are tuned before shipping and should not require any further adjustments on
site.
It is recommended that an approved TAGSYS technical representative inspect the pedestal
unit at least once per year.
After the L-SP2 is completely installed, verify the antenna tuning of each pedestal to ensure that
the tuning process is necessary.
The antennas should be tuned only if necessary. To determine if the tuning procedure is
required, follow the steps listed in section 6.2 “Verifying Antenna Performances”.
The tuning of the antennas should be verified whenever a pedestal is installed or moved.
The tuning procedure requires some knowledge of the use of equipment such as an oscilloscope,
and should therefore be carried out by a suitably qualified technician.

100 MHz analog bandwidth (-3 dB)
5mV/division vertical resolution
10ns/div horizontal time base resolution
The measurements are taken on the sine wave and repetitive carrier signal, so when using a digital
scope, the sampling rate should be at least twice the maximum analog bandwidth.
6.1.3 Probes
At least one standard probe (not supplied with the TAGSYS Antenna Tuning Kit) will be required
for measuring a trigger signal for the normal tests. Three probes may be required for the extended
troubleshooting section.
6.2 Verifying Antenna Performances
The first step before starting the antenna tuning procedure is to verify the performance of the
pedestal antennas in order to ensure that the antennas need tuning.
Antenna performances are verified by ensuring that the L-SP2 EAS pedestals are capable of
detecting a TAGSYS RFID tag with an active EAS anti-theft bit.
1. Ensure that the L-SP2 is correctly installed and switched on.
2. Holding the TAGSYS RFID tag test card in your hand slowly move it from the top to the
bottom of the pedestal (which should take approximately ten seconds) with the TAGSYS
RFID tag approximately 450 mm (1,5 feet) from the pedestal. Verify that the LED/buzzer
board signals the detection of the TAGSYS RFID tag at the top and bottom of each antenna
(four positions, as two of them overlap).
3. Holding the TAGSYS RFID tag test card so that the TAGSYS RFID tag is horizontal (one of
the less optimum orientations), slowly move it from the top to the bottom of the pedestal
with the TAGSYS RFID tag approximately 450 mm (1,5 feet) from the pedestal. Verify that
the LED/buzzer board signals the detection of the TAGSYS RFID tag at the top and bottom
of each antenna (four positions, as two of them overlap).
If the L-SP2 pedestals detect the TAGSYS RFID tag at Steps 2 and 3, no tuning is required.
If results are questionable, antenna tuning and insulation must be checked.
6.3 Adjusting the Antenna Impedance
The impedance of the antennas can be tuned using the TAGSYS Antenna Tuning Kit or an
Impedance Analyzer. Before starting the Antenna Tuning Procedure, make sure that the antennas
require tuning (see section 6.2 “Verifying Antenna Performances”). If the antennas do not require
tuning, do not tune the antennas.
6.3.1 Using the Antenna Tuning Kit
To access to the antennas remove the top cover of the L-SP2 pedestals (See section 4.3.3
“Installing the Pedestal”) and slide out the side panels from the L-SP2 pedestals chassis then set
up the components and connections as shown in Figure 25 and Figure 26.

For the best impedance, adjust the trimmer capacitors (Figure 27) until the two curves on the
oscilloscope are exactly superimposed. For optimal performances, the two trimmer capacitors
should be set to approximately the same angle. Please see Figure 28 .

6.4 Adjusting the Antenna Isolation
Once each antenna is tuned for optimal impedance (see section 6.3 “Adjusting the Antenna
Impedance”), it is necessary to verify the isolation of each antenna.
Correct antenna isolation is not greater than –19-20 dB or 600-mVpp residual peak-to-peak
voltages collected on either the top or bottom antenna when the center antenna is powered by the
tuning kit sine wave carrier generator. Poor isolation is approximately –10 dB or 2 Vpp residual
peak-to-peak voltages.
Optimum isolation is obtained by sliding carefully the top or bottom antenna towards the fixed and
center antenna. When a minimum value is reached, the antenna position can be secured using the
4 screws.
The voltage is measured using an oscilloscope of at least 100-MHz analog bandwidth, 10-ns time
resolution and a 50-Ohm cable terminated at the oscilloscope input.
6.4.1 Using the Antenna Tuning Kit
To access to the antennas remove the top cover of the L-SP2 pedestals (See section 4.3.3
“Installing the Pedestal”) and slide out the side panels from the L-SP2 pedestals chassis then set
up the components and connections as shown in Figure 32.

The center antenna always remains fixed in position and connected to the antenna-tuning device.
The other two antennas should be slightly loosened so they can be moved with relative ease but
do not move on their own (Figure 33)
The isolation should be checked as follows:
1. Adjust the position of the bottom antenna with respect to the center antenna.
2. Adjust the vertical position of the bottom antenna so that a minimum is seen on the
oscilloscope.
3. Repeat with the top antenna.
The central antenna remains fixed in position and the top and bottom antennas are moved,
one at a time, to adjust the isolation.
While the top antenna is connected to the oscilloscope the bottom antenna should remain
connected to the antenna connection board, and visa versa.

Antenna Tuning
Note that the isolation adjustment process often requires repeating the procedure several times
between the top and center antennas and between the center and bottom antennas. This means
that it is normally more difficult to achieve good results of isolation between the center and bottom
antennas. Therefore, it is important to check and minimize the isolation between the center and
bottom antennas before moving to the top and center antennas. Typically, an isolation value equal
to or less than 600 mVpp should be obtained between the center and bottom antennas and also
between the top and center antennas.
Once the antennas have been correctly tuned for optimal impedance and isolation, it is best to
verify their synchronization with the mains power supply and the trigger threshold levels.

7 Operation
7.1 Theory of Operation
The RF motherboard in the electronics unit produces radio frequency (RF) electromagnetic
signals that are transmitted via the antennas in each pedestal. Each antenna transmits for a short
period, receives for a short period, and is inactive for the remainder of the time.
When a TAGSYS RFID tag enters the electromagnetic field between two pedestals, some of the
RF energy (AC) is converted to DC energy and used to power the TAGSYS RFID tag’s microchip.
The remainder is used to carry the TAGSYS RFID tag’s EAS signal code back to the electronics
unit via the antennas.
7.2 Starting the System
There is no ON/OFF switch. The system operates when power is applied.
7.3 Normal Operation
No operating procedures are required. The system continues to operate as long as power is
supplied.
7.4 Shutdown
Once the system is set up and running, we recommend that all pedestals remain turned on at all
times.

CAUTION: These distances are subject to site variables. Distance may be smaller under
some conditions. Metal frames on furniture and fixture items may interfere with the EAS
system if they are too close. This is because energy from the antenna can couple into the
metallic frame and be transmitted to TAGSYS RFID tags and antennas several meters away.
9.1 Sources of Interference
The following devices may cause interference with EAS systems if they are close to the pedestals:
TAGSYS RFID tag readers and programming devices
computer monitors or screens (cathode ray tubes)
radio transmitters
short-wave radios
high power music systems with D-class amplifiers
some industrial vacuum cleaners
high-frequency fluorescent lights (if very close to pedestals)
neon or halogen lights such as advertising signs
