3. QUICK TUNING
3.1. QUICK INSTALLATION
3.1.1. PREVIOUS
Always connect the system to clean power lines (No other electrical devices connected)
In order to avoid damaging the electronics, do not place any TURNED OFF antenna near a TURNED ON
Transceiver antenna. Please keep the minimum distance, not less than 50cm
Do not fix the system to the floor before testing its performance FIRST!
Do not place Receiver and Power line (220Vac/110Vac) cables along the same route.
Please Read this manual BEFORE installing systems!
3.1.2. SYSTEM INSTALLATION
Check cabling / connection needs according to the kind of installation. (See Section 4. CONFIGURATION).
Check all the material is ready.
Place the system in the installation area. (DO NOT fix the system to the floor).
Turn the system ON, and connect to the system (Follow Section 5. SOFTWARE)
Check Electrical Noise, Synchro, TX Status, etc.… check everything is normal.
Stabilize external electrical noise to the minimum.
Check Section 1.3. TABLE: SYSTEM / DETECTION / NOISE to define the maximum detection distance.
If any modifications, save parameters.
Disconnect your laptop and observe the system during some time making several detection tests (buzzer
can be disabled to not cause disturbance).
If OK, fix the system to the floor , if not OK, see Section 3.2. TROUBLESHOOTING
You are done!
3.2. TROUBLESHOOTING

Lower Threshold
See Section 3.4. NOISE PROBLEM
See Section 3.3. SYNCHRONIZATION PROBLEM
See Section 3.5. DEAD TRANSMITTER
See Section 3.6. DEAD RECEIVER
3.2.2. TOO MUCH DETECTION
Lower Gain
Rise Threshold
3.2.3. FALSE ALARM
Look for TAGS near the antennas
See Section 3.7. FALSE ALARM (OR UNKNOWN ALARM)
3.2.4. MAKES OTHER SYSTEMS FALSE ALARM
See Section 3.3. SYNCHRONIZATION PROBLEM
8
3.3. SYNCHRONIZATION PROBLEM
How can I recognize a synchro problem?
Externally: When you turn on your system:
•It makes other 58 kHz systems near alarm
•Your system is showing a high amount of noise in the LED bar (See Section 2. HARDWARE).
•There is no detection or it is very poor.
Laptop:
•Check Section 5.7.5. DISCOVERY TOOL
How can I know the synchro problem has been solved?
Externally all systems around will be working fine as well as yours.
Laptop: The situation in the discovery mode will be similar to this:
You are done!
9
3.4. NOISE PROBLEM
How can I recognize a noise problem?
Externally: When you turn on your system:
•The system shows a high amount of noise in the LED bar.
•The detection might be poor.
Laptop:
•In the scope you will see high amount of noise, in the 4 buffers.
How can I solve a noise problem?
Try to locate the source of noise:
•Turn off all electrical equipment in the area. If the noise disappears, start turning all the electrical
equipment ONE BY ONE till you get noise again.
•Other way to locate the source of noise is moving the Receiver antenna while at the same time you are
looking to the LED bar or the software. See how the orientation of the Receiver antenna affects the
amount of noise and you will finally find the source.
Then you have to neutralize the source of noise. (It might be related with bad synchro, please check
procedure in Section 5.7.5. DISCOVERY TOOL) Other techniques are:
•Swap Transceiver antenna by Receiver antenna position.
•Ground the noisy device correctly or try to put it as far as possible from the Receiver antenna.
•Use advanced noise techniques 'New Noise fighting algorithms'
10
New Noise fighting algorithms
Depending on the level of electrical noise, it is recommended to select different positions in the noise
selector. Each antenna is independent.
Transceiver antenna
•There are 2 active modes in noise
fighting for Transceiver antenna.
•Position 0 turns off noise fighting
algorithms in Transceiver antenna.
•Back Ground suppression
Receiver antennas
•There are 2 active modes in noise
fighting for Receiver antennas.
•Position 0 turns off noise fighting
algorithms in Receiver antenna.
•Back Ground suppression
How can I know the noise problem has been solved?
Detection will improve. The signs of noise in the LED bar and in the scope will disappear.
You are done!
11
3.5. DEAD TRANSMITTER
How can I recognize a dead transmitter problem?
Externally: When you turn on your system:
•The system does not detect.
Laptop:
•Voltage near to 0Vpp
How can I solve a dead transmitter problem?
If the Transceiver Board is not working, change it by a new one.
Please check the connection cable between the Power Supply and the Transceiver Board.
If the synchro pulse from the POWER supply is not OK, the system will stop the transmission.
If the problem persists, it can be caused by a blown fuse in the Power supply. Change the power supply by a
new one.
Check the power line frequency to be 50Hz+/- 1Hz or 60Hz +/- 1Hz.
How can I know the dead transmitter problem has been solved?
The system is working normally.
You are done!
12
3.6. DEAD RECEIVER
How can I recognize a dead receiver problem?
Externally: When you turn on your system:
•The system does not detect. (Remember that there are 6 independent receivers one for every loop).
•You can try if a dual system to change the receiver cable to red connector or grey connector
Laptop:
•The signal is near 6 dB or less in all receiver buffers.
How can I solve a dead receiver problem?
The problem may come from the Transceiver-Receiver connection cable. It may be broken during the
installation.
The problem may come from the Receiver Board. It might be damaged. Try another Receiver Board
The problem may come from the Transceiver Board. It may have one Receiver channel damaged. Try
another Transceiver Board or test with the other Receiver channel.
How can I know the dead receiver problem has been solved?
The system is working normally.
You are done!
13
3.7. FALSE ALARM (OR UNKNOWN ALARM)
How can I recognize a false alarms (or unknown alarm) problem?
The system is alarming when not expected to alarm. USS 58 kHz systems are very false alarm restrictive.
It is almost impossible that a USS 58kHz system is alarming except when:
There is a tag in the detection area
There is another 58 kHz system not in synchro.
How can I solve a false alarms (or unknown alarm) problem?
Look for tags near the system. Look in the scope in the software. If you see something similar to this:
Please Stop the TX system. If the alarm disappears, there are at least some LABEL/TAG near.
If not, there might be another 58 kHz system out of synchro affecting our system. Follow procedure in
Section 5.7.5. DISCOVERY TOOL
How can I know the false alarms (or unknown alarm) problem has been solved?
The system is working normally, no unexpected alarms.
You are done!

5.6.7. CONFIGURATION OPTIONS
Detection:
•This should be left as from factory settings.
Others:
•Alive Signal: Activates or deactivates “alive light”,
which shows that the system is running correctly
and it is not “hung”
•Master & NET (ONLY INFO)
•Ignore switches (option available for systems with
versions lower than V3.B4 and V4.B4). With this
function selected, the system will ignore any change
or parameter introduced from the switches. This is
to prevent unauthorized access even from the
hardware / switches
•Alarms RS232 (option only available for systems
with versions V4.BD or higher). Enable Beeper
alarms in order to receive alarm events via Rs232
45
5.7. TRANSMITTER TAB
5.7.1. START / STOP TX
From here the Transmission can be stopped, this can be used to confirm
if an alarm is coming from tags / labels.
If the Transmission is stopped and the alarm stops, then the alarm was
caused by a tag.
5.7.2. TX LOOPS
Turn ON/OFF any of the 2 independent Transceiver loops in the
Transceiver antenna. (Default ON).
TX Loops states can be saved.
5.7.4. DISCOVERY TOOL
46
Main tool to synchronize the system.
In 99% of cases this adjustment is not necessary. Anyway, it is always good to take a look at the
environmental electric noise throughout the ' Discovery Mode' feature.
When Discovery Tool is ON, the transmitter is then turned off, and the system ONLY receives.
Standard Synchro delay value is 0.2ms
For Slave systems, 'Follow Master' enabled will set the same delay than the Master.
This option is available for systems with version 3.A0 and 4.A0 or higher.
Once the Discovery Tool is ON, transmission loops on the selected system are stopped and electrical noise
and other possible systems out of phase are shown on the screen. In the scope is represented the amount
of noise in 58 kHz through the 0º to the 360º phase in the mains. (From 0 ms to 20 ms in one 50 Hz period).
47
THE FOLLOWING POINTS SHOULD BE CONSIDERED BEFORE USING DISCOVERT TOOL:
Discovery can be made with transceiver or receiver antennas (Red and Grey Channels).
Recommended order is:
•1. Red Channel (In case you have receiver antenna on this channel):
1.1 Disable Transceiver receiver loops
1.2 Enable Red Channel receiver loops
1.3 Disable Grey Channel receiver loops
•2. Grey Channel (In case you have receiver antenna on this channel)
2.1 Disable Transceiver receiver loops
2.2 Disable Red Channel receiver loops
2.3 Enable Grey Channel receiver loops
•3. Transceiver
3.1 Enable Transceiver receiver loops
Furthermore, Discovery should be done with the Master system as long as you have more than one
transceiver antenna in a net (slave systems). For these cases, DISABLE “Follow Master” option on every
Slave system. Otherwise you could see transmission loops from slave systems which may confuse the
scope.
48
When you click on 'ON' button , a new scope window will appear:
•System transmission blocks (A, B, C) will be represented in the negative area in green colour
•Other transmission blocks are represented in red colour.
•Noise is yellow colour
•Signal detection blocks are represented in purple colour in the negative area (always after system
transmission blocks)
Zoom for AXIS Y.
Select Auto or fixed to set the Y maximum level.
Zoom for AXIS X.
Select Normal to display 3 blocks (A, B and C) or Blocks in case you want to display one
only Block (A, B or C) with more resolution. (This option is available for versions 4.C0 or
higher)
AM 58kHz Timing
Delay:
Change the delay manually to synchronize the transmission with other systems
around. (0.2ms is default time)
TX Blocks
Enable/disable transmission blocks. It is recommended to have three blocks
enabled unless you have tag detection signal on any of these blocks too high. In
this case, you can disable the involved block.
RX Signal Level
This is the level for tag signal for each TX Block (A, B C)
49
FIELD SITUATIONS
1. Systems perfectly in phase (99% of times), NO NEED TO SYNCHRONIZE
•Transmission loops are displayed in the negative area. The presence of another system which is
correctly synchronized with yours, can be seen right over system transmission blocks (For versions 4.C0
or higher)
2. Systems out of synchro, NEED TO SYNCHRONIZE, Only one external reference
•When another 58 kHz transmitter is transmitting out of synchro, it can be easily seen from the scope
screen. The positive area is reserved for these situations. In the following picture, the presence of
another 58 kHz transmitter can be easily seen on that area. Only one external reference means that
only 3 TX blocks from other system can be seen in the upper side of the screen.
50
•Change the delay manually to synchronize with the system out of synchro and match the system
transmission blocks with the other systems around
•As it can be seen on the picture above, our TX blocks (green blocks) are being moved until the position
matches with the other system TX blocks. The synchro can be followed and verified visually.
•After a good synchronization process, press “OFF” button
3. Systems out of synchro, NEED TO SYNCHRONIZE, More than one external reference
•When there is more than one reference to synchro, then a correct synchronization is not possible. This
means that previous to the installation, there were already at least 2 systems out of synchro, probably
these systems are already not working. In order to fix the problem it is necessary to previously
synchronize between them the existing systems.
•3 blocks of abnormal duration, means at least 2 previously not synchronized systems
51
•After synchronizing ALL external systems, the situation will be as follows:
•Then the system can be correctly synchronized using this unique and only external reference.
•Please follow step 2, to synchronize de system in accordance.
5.7.5. TRANSCEIVER STATUS
Transceiver Voltage
•Shows the Voltage in the TX loops. It should be
always in the range of 1200 to 1400V (GREEN)
•If it is lower, it might be because a defective
transmitter or bad resonance. Then it might be
necessary to retune the Transceiver resonance
(Hardware).
Transceiver Temperature
•Shows the current Temperature in the
Transmitter Board.
•Should be always in the green area (10° to 55°).
52
5.8. RECEIVER TAB
Transceiver antenna is also a Receiver antenna, so it has its own receiver side.
Each Transceiver antenna is able to support 2 Receiver antennas.
Selecting 'Transceiver' allows selecting parameters for receiver side of Transceiver antenna
Selecting 'Red Channel' allows selecting parameters for the Receiver Antenna connected to the red
connector on the Transceiver board.
Selecting 'Grey Channel' allows selecting parameters for the Receiver Antenna connected to the grey
connector on the Transceiver board.
5.8.1. GAIN
Gain feature is used to adjust the receiver sensitivity to get the best reception signal.
In order to adjust Gain, simply select the value until you get the required detection.
5.8.2. THRESHOLD
Threshold feature is the signal level at which each receiver will trigger an alarm.
If you need higher threshold, then increase the Multiplier. With higher threshold detection is reduced. The
system is less sensitive and more quantity of signal will be needed from the tag to trigger an alarm.
It is recommended, for maximum sensitivity to keep the Threshold at minimum (18 dB) & Multiplier=1.
In order to adjust Threshold, simply select the value until you get the required detection
53
5.8.3. START/STOP RECEIVER LOOPS
From here, each Receiver loop can be independently turned on and off. If there is a high disturbance in any
of them, it can be disabled. Receiver Loops states be saved.
5.8.4. ANTI NOISE ALGORITHMS
Anti Noise algorithms are used to minimize the electrical noise. Depending on the level of electrical noise,
it is recommended to select different positions in the noise selector. Each antenna is independent.
There are 2 active modes in noise fighting.
Position 0 turns off noise fighting algorithms in mono-antenna.
Back Ground suppression is also OFF by default.
54
5.8.5. SIGNAL AND NOISE
In the scope area there is a digital oscilloscope display that will help to analyse the noise and signal. Real
time electrical noise signals icon will show current electrical signal (Noise and tags if there is any).
There are 4 different reception areas shown on the Signal Bars / Digital Scope:
Upper Loop Signal (S1)
Upper Loop Noise (N1)
Lower Loop Signal (S2)
Lower Loop Noise (N2)
SITUATION 1 (When there is no tag near)
In the 4 different reception Bars/Areas, only electrical noise in the environment is shown, as
there is no tag near.
All 4 reception Bars/Areas MUST HAVE SIMILAR values
The reception areas shown on the Signal Bars / Digital Scope should look as follows:
SITUATION 2 (When there is a tag near)
The reception areas shown on the Signal Bars / Digital Scope should look as follows:
In the 4 different reception Bars/Areas, the 2 reception Bars/Areas reserved for noise keep
the same as in SITUATION 1 BUT the 2 Bars/Areas reserved for tag signal, show higher values
than the ones reserved for noise.
This way, an alarm caused by tags can be easily identified
