EXI HALO Installation & Operation Manual 981-000003-000EXI Wireless Systems 8March 2000Revision 2.04. INTRODUCTIONThis manual serves as a guide for Installers of the HALO system. The major components of the system aredescribed, as well as the system’s intended functionality, so as to gain familiarity with its operation prior toinstallation. In order to successfully install and commission the system, it is absolutely critical tounderstand the capabilities of the system and its components prior to installation.4.1. About Halo Infant Protection SystemHalo is a premium infant protection system. Halo works in conjunction with the EXI P-tag patienttransponder that is capable of sensing if it has been removed from the infant. Halo is an electronic system,which, in conjunction with staff diligence, creates a secure perimeter to deter infant abductions.The function of the HALO system is to monitor areas within a building for the presence of HALO Tags. ATag is sensed when it either enters an RF Field that is set up using the EXI HALO Controller (referred to asa Tag in Field or TIF), or when the Tag initiates an alarm signal (referred to as Tag InitiatedCommunications, or TIC).HALO is designed to assist staff in providing a higher degree of safety for patients. It is not intended asthe sole means of protection in preventing a wanderer or infant from leaving the premises. Regularchecks to verify that your HALO system is operational is highly recommended.SYSTEM MAINTENANCE SHOULD INCLUDE THE FOLLOWING STEPS:All Tags should be checked for physical damage after each cleaning, disinfecting or sterilizationprocedure.Each Tag should be tested for correct operation before being attached to an infant. The HALOsoftware prompts for testing of Tags prior to their deployment. Please refer to the appropriatesection in this manual for the instructions.The warranty on Tags is 3 years, and the batteries within the Tags are expected to last in excess ofthe warranty period depending on the usage pattern. Do not leave Tags in the detection field forlong periods of time, and store them in the foil bags supplied. Failure to do so will result in falsealarms, and will reduce battery life.Set up a regular system check schedule to verify that the Controllers, Receivers and Tags areoperational. Controllers should have the “Ready” light illuminated to show that they are powered.Check the operation of the Controller daily by starting a bypass or triggering an alarm using a Tagto ensure that it is fully operational and protecting the egress point where it is located.Check each Receiver on a regular basis to ensure that it can receive signals from Tags in the “OffBody” condition. Failure to regularly check for this operation may lead to failure to detect a Tagthat is removed from an infant, and therefore compromising protection for the infant.Whenever you see an infant who is a patient, look for the Tag on this infant to verify that it is stillsecurely attached. This may require special knowledge as to the placement of the Tag.Conduct frequent back-ups of Activity Logs for future reference.

Overview to Installing the HALO SystemEXI HALO is designed to provide extended periods of reliable service. Once installed correctly, the systemdoes not require tuning or adjustments, and it should provide exemplary service unless the position of itscomponents is subsequently disturbed, the physical environment is altered as in a renovation, or a very strongnoise source is introduced into the environment.Figure 6 – Typical HALO System Installation5.2. SYSTEM WIRINGThe HALO network is based on the RS-485 electrical interface standard, which is 2-wire multi-node bus.The EXI HALO elements are designed such that many more than the RS-485 limit of 32 Drivers and 32Receivers can be co-exist on the same network. The baud rate used in the HALO system is 57,600 bps, andtherefore in order to avoid data corruption it is important to ensure that a clean signal is always present.Using the right type of cable, network topology, and not exceeding total cable length are critical factors inensuring that the system will operate reliably.Figure 7 - "Bus" Topology Figure 8 - "Star” TopologyRIMHALO NetworkSRA ExciterAntennaKeypadHALO ControllerSRA-E ExciterAntennae (2)HALO ReceiverKeypadMag SwitchMagLockElevatorPenthouseCPS-24Central PowerSupplyPower DistributionHALOTranspondersHALO ElevatorControllerELEVATORELECTRICALROOMElevatorTravelCableHALO ConsoleRS-485Repeater6 Lines + GND"Bus" (Series)Configuration
EXI HALO Installation & Operation Manual 981-000003-000EXI Wireless Systems 13 March 2000Revision 2.0Cable capacitance is a large factor in determining the quality of the signal on the network, and EXI recommends thatcables with capacitance of greater than 15 pf per foot should be avoided. The network should be constructed using a“multi-drop bus” type topology, avoiding any “star” type configuration. The system is designed to operate with up to4,000 ft of cable with the recommended topology and cable. The total cable length varies depending upon the cablecapacitance and nominal impedance, topology, and number of devices on the network. If the estimated total cablelength is greater than 4,000 ft, a RS-485 Repeater will be required to ensure that the system works reliably, or worksat all. It is also recommended that a Repeater be used to isolate HALO Elevator Controllers from the main system tominimize noise pick-up and loading of the system. Cables used in Elevator shafts should be stranded and not solid,and should be resilient enough to withstand the continuous flexing that it will experience for many years in theelevator shaft.Figure 9 - Typical HALO Configuration5.2.1.

DOOR CONTROLThe controller chassis may be horizontally or vertically mounted, on a wall, ceiling or shelf and should bemounted so that the front face panel is easily accessible. Since it is preferable to leave the RX antenna attacheddirectly to the controller, the exact location of the controller will affect the reception of the tags and shouldonly be finalized after setting up the field. The RX antenna should be positioned on a vertical plane formaximum performance.Figure 11 – Door Coverage• Mount the Keypad about 10’ away from door so that it can be used before entering the detectionfield.• Maglock release should be hooked up to an unused auxiliary normally open contact from FireAlarm Panel.5.5. LOCATION FOR SRA EXCITER ANTENNASOne of the most important aspect of the entire installation is the correct positioning of the SRA ExciterAntenna. The Antenna may be installed:Ø above the doorway, laid flat on the dropped ceiling tile.Ø dropped inside a wall cavity 4’ above the floor.Ø on the side wall along the hallway 4’ above the floor.Each field needs to be fully tested to ensure adequate coverage of the protected area.HALOControllerDoor SenseMagnetic SwitchKeypadExciter AntennaMag-LockEXI ELECTRONIC SYSTEMSWinnipeg, Manitoba (204) 788-1696Made in CanadaPRODUCTMODEL NO.SERIAL NO>ROAM II/TAGRRRSEA-M1118Roam II & TagrrrRECEIVEANTENNA RBCFCC ID# HE7MAXTRANSMIT OUTPUTSEA #1 SEA #2Made in Canada . . with care ControllerbyPower1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20+24V DC InputSystem Ground+12V Ou 200 maSystem GroundWeigand 0/DataWeigand 1/GndSystem GroundMagOut 24V 200 maDoor Switch InSystem GroundUnlock InOverride InStrobe InN.OCOMN.C.N.OCOMN.CRelay #1Relay #2Alarm InOFF ONDetection Area ~ 10'RIMTAPTo otherDevicesTo ComputerPower

EXI HALO Installation & Operation Manual 981-000003-000EXI Wireless Systems 17 March 2000Revision 2.0Take note of the following:• Ensure that no tag can reach the protected area without passing through a field.• The field should not extend into other rooms or areas that are regularly occupied by tags. These tagscould keep a controller in a pre-alarm state preventing the door from opening if magnetic door locksare being used.• The tag should be detected at least 4 feet from the door in order to give the magnetic door lock time toenergize.• Proximity to other fields could also be a factor. If a Tag is able to receive communication from 2different controllers in the case of field overlap, it will try to respond to both controllers. Eachcontroller will see Tag communication when it doesn’t expect it and report it as noise, therebyinhibiting any alarms..• The antenna should be located be at least 18” away from metal objects, cables, air ducts etc. in order tobe able to create a uniform field with minimal loss of RF power.Ceiling height, door approach width and metal in the vicinity, need to be considered when planning the locationfor the exciter antennae. The field should extend to the floor and cover the entire exit way. A dropped ceilingconsisting of a grid and non-foil backed ceiling tile are the easiest construction materials to work with. Checkabove the lay-in tile to see how much space you have and the proximity of metal objects such as pipes, cablesand air plenums. The SRA may also be dropped inside a wall cavity. Sometimes it’s simpler to mount the SRAon the side of a wall above the door or along the hallway about 5 feet from the floor.Extensive metal close to the Exciter can distort the field in unpredictable ways. Metallic objects will absorband/or reflect radiated energy, which affects the field. This phenomenon can increase or decrease the fieldstrength in areas causing hot spots or holes in your field. It can even change the shape of the field with tagdetection sometimes occurring as much as 35 ft away. At times this effect can be used to advantage but thedesired result can only be determined experimentally.Although it is not possible to completely predict the performance of the field for every situation, someinformation about the field will help to shorten the process of determining the best location for the SRA. In theabsence of any site irregularities, the field is symmetrical, perpendicular to the antenna length. A cross-sectionthrough the length of the antenna is roughly oval as shown below.Although the field strength is adjustable, the maximum distance for good coverage is approximately 10 feet.Sometimes 2 exciters are necessary to get adequate coverage.5.6. LOCATING THE RECEIVER ANTENNAThe “RX” Antenna should be mounted in a vertical plane. The “RX” Antenna is provided with a removableright angle fitting that facilitates the desired mounting position. The area to be protected has to be blanketedby controllers and receivers so that all critical areas have coverage. Elevator Interfaces cannot be included inthe area calculations since the elevator is not always on the floor. Walls, equipment and excess metal couldaffect the pickup range. Although greater distances are possible, a maximum of 40’between devices isrecommended.If it’s not possible to create a proper field with the exciter inside,an SRA-E exciter antennae could be placed on an outside wall tolimit the penetration of the field into the building. Watch out for foilbacked ceiling tile!Note: The coax cable used is RG59U with a solid copper center conductor and shield. SEAexciters draw current therefore do not use ordinary RG59U cables to extend the length supplied asthey used copper clad steel.
EXI HALO Installation & Operation Manual 981-000003-000EXI Wireless Systems 18 March 2000Revision 2.0It is essential that the RX antennas have no metal barriers blocking the signals from the Tags although somemetal objects may enhance communication by reflecting the signal further than it would normally transmit.Wire glass sometimes found around nurseries can cut down the range. The only way to be sure of adequatecoverage is by testing the results. After all devices are installed and operational, ensure that the entire area hascoverage. Experience will shorten this process as the installer learns what site conditions cause problems.5.7. FINALIZE CONTROLLER INSTALLATIONFasten SRA exciter antenna. If installing the SRA above a ceiling tile, use a marker pen to draw an outline ofthe SRA in its desired position on the upper side of the tile. Once you are certain of the SRA location, usesome adhesive or caulk to cement the SRA to the tile, preventing it from falling on the floor should the tile belifted for any reason.If the SRA is to be dropped inside a wall cavity, do not let it hang on the coax cable nor hang so low that ittouches the bottom steel plate. Loop the coax cable and wrap a tie-wrap, or band of electrical tape around it asshown below. Ensure the SRA will hang at the correct height by marking the cable prior to dropping the SRAinside the wall. Secure the cable when the SRA is hanging in the correct position.Figure 14 - Securing the Exciter Antenna CableMount the Controller permanently and position the RX antenna. Place the RIM close to the Controller andconnect the three wires on the RS-485 side of the RIM to the RS-485 network. This may be done by usingcrimp type connectors, or by means of an EXI TAP box.The Keypad is designed for flush wall mounting in a standard single-gang electrical box. Should surfacemounting be necessary, an optional SMB box may be used. Should a louder local alarm be desired, either use aWire-mold box extension and break out the knock out holes before mounting the panel, or install an externalsiren or other audible device.Install door switch. Hook up Maglock and any peripheral devices. Make sure the Maglock will release in caseof a Fire Alarm. Power up and test the field again.Figure 15 - Maglock InstallationRIMs have unique serial numbers that are associated with the Controller orReceiver location that they serve.

The default setting is “2”.5.7.1.5. TEST CONTROLLER AND SET UP FIELDSAfter reading LOCATION FOR SRA EXCITER ANTENNAS, choose a suitable location for the SRA.Setting up a field is a matter of experience gained by trial and error. The primary considerations here arethe field shape and strength. The field has to fill the area in front of the door all the way to the floor so thatno tag can reach the door without being detected.To set up a field, start by placing the tag at the range you want for the field at the height a tag is usuallygoing to be found. The tag needs to be detected far enough from the door to allow the magnetic door locktime to energize. The tag should be placed on a non-metallic surface for testing. You might want to do apreliminary field setup by holding the SRA at the approximate location you want to install it but be awarethat your body could be affecting the field. The SRA should be temporarily placed and the field adjustedfor range using this stationary tag. Since the Tag will be read easier in some orientations with respect to theSRA, it is also necessary to test with the Tag in a variety of positions.With the SRA and tag in position use the SRA RANGE ADJUST control on the top right corner of thecontroller circuit board to set up your field strength. Turn the control shaft clockwise for maximum fieldrange and counter clockwise for minimum field range.Holding the tag, slowly pass through all the areas that you need the field to cover. DON’T FORGETDOWN BY THE FLOOR. The device should continue to beep at a steady rate. An uneven rate indicatesthat the controller is not able to read the tag successfully every time.The final step is to ensure that the field does not extend into other rooms or areas that are regularlyoccupied by tags. These tags could inadvertently keep a controller in an alarm state. 5.8. INSTALLING RECEIVERSReceivers are meant for use where only a “TIC” signal needs to be detected. The “Relay” light on the front ofthe receiver comes on to indicate relay activation when a “TIC” is detected. Receivers are not capable ofcreating a field of energy using Exciters, as Controllers can, and therefore do not have to be connected to theExciter Antennae. Install the RX Antenna onto the Receiver and swivel it so that it is in the vertical plane.Place the Receiver in the approximate location for final use, connect the power supply and power-up.

RS-485 Interface Module (RIM)Each HALO Controller, Receiver and Elevator Controller needs a RIM to interface to the RS-485 network thatterminates at the HALO Computer. The RIMs have a unique serial number that is associated to the locations onthe floor plans of the building, so that the computer can correctly show the location of an event occurring onthe system. Therefore, ensure that the correct RIM is installed at the corresponding locaton.5.9.1. RIM LED StatusThe 2 LED’s can be used to indicate a number of conditions to the installer. One LED is used to displaydevice status while the other LED is used to indicate network status.During normal operation both LEDs should be “Steady On”.LED behavior RED LED GREEN LEDOFF RIM not working, no powersource No network detectedFLASHING Poor communication due to looseor reverse wiring on Weigandlines.Communication failure – nonetwork address.ON STEADY Normal Operation.

CONTROLLER CABINET INSTALLATIONMount the HALO Elevator Controller Cabinet inside the elevator car. A suitable location for mounting thecabinet would be bolted securely with locking hardware above the ceiling tile of the elevator car, or on topof the elevator car roof. The cabinet may be mounted in any orientation, depending on what the spaceallows. Ensure that the cabinet can be opened easily to allow you to make the various connectionsnecessary, and to be able to make adjustments to the controls within the Elevator Controller inside theCabinet.Figure 20 - HALO Elevator Controller InstallationShould any extra holes be required to mount the cabinet, ensure that no steel cuttings fall into the cabinet,as this may cause the system to malfunction. A 120 VAC duplex plug is required in the proximity of thecabinet so as to be able to supply power to the cabinet.The RIM is built into the Cabinet. With the assistance of the Elevator Company, the three wires from theRS 485 side of the RIM should be pulled to the Elevator Control Room, or Penthouse, from which theyControllerCabinet(Bolted on top ofelevator roofor on ceiling )KeypadSRA-EAntenna(2)AntennaCableKeypadCableRX AntennaDroppedCeilingAudibleAlarmModuleRS-485 Connectionto Elevator ControlRoomthroughtravel cable
EXI HALO Installation & Operation Manual 981-000003-000EXI Wireless Systems 25 March 2000Revision 2.0should be routed back to the HALO RS-485 Network. It is highly recommended that you employ an RS-485 Repeater, available from EXI, in the Elevator Control Room to separate the Elevator connections fromthe main HALO network. The Repeater isolates the noise that may be picked up during elevator operation,boosts the RS485 signal, and reduces the total capacitance on the network to ensure reliable operation.5.10.2. LOCATION FOR SRA-E EXCITER ANTENNASOne of the most important aspects of the entire installation is the correct positioning of the SRA-EAntennae. The two antennae are to be mounted under each side rail in the center position of the elevatorsidewall, opposite each other. This is the recommended location and you may improvise depending on thedesign of the elevator car.• Place the SRA-E template, or an antenna, on the center of the elevator wall, at least 1” below thehandrail. Use the screw holes on the template to mark the location of the mounting screws and hole forcoax cable entry, and drill holes as required.• Remove the cover from the SRA-E, thread screw anchors (not provided) into the elevator wall to thecorrect depth, insert the screws into the SRA-E nylon foot, then thread the screws into the anchorreceptors so the SRA-E mounts securely to the elevator wall.• Repeat this procedure for the opposite side.• Once the Antennae are mounted, run the Antenna Coaxial cables down from the Controller Cabinet oneach side of the car. Draw the cables through the ½” holes on the nylon foot on each side and connectthe mating coax fitting on each of the SRA-E antenna. Then replace the cover on each antenna.Figure 21 - SRA-E InstallationHandrailElevator WallSRA-EFront ViewTop Cross-section
EXI HALO Installation & Operation Manual 981-000003-000EXI Wireless Systems 26 March 2000Revision 2.05.10.3. Elevator Receive (RX) AntennaLocate a suitable position for the RX Antenna. Should the elevator have a dropped ceiling which isaccessible, this area may be used for the antenna provided that the insulation between the antenna and thecab is not treated with a foil backing. Should such a foil backing be present, you may strip the foil from thefiberglass and discard it. Do not locate the RX Antenna above a metal or metalized plastic egg-crateceiling, as this would render it ineffective.It is recommended that the RX Antenna be mounted in the horizontal plane, parallel to the elevator floor, toreduce noise pick-up.• Place the RX Antenna on the surface to which it will be placed and mark the point through whichthe coax cable will exit.• Drill a suitable hole at the location marked and place a grommet into this hole to protect the coaxcable from getting frayed.• Clean the surface where the antenna is to be mounted with alcohol or similar cleanser. Remove theprotective strip from the double-sided tape at the back of the RX Antenna and mount the antennato this surface.• Thread the coax cable through the grommet and connect it to the Controller within the HALOElevator Cabinet.5.10.4. Audible Alarm ModuleThe Audible Alarm module can be mounted on the elevator “COP” panel. If the elevator car has an egg-crate style ceiling, a dropped ceiling or a lighting valance, the Audible Alarm module may be mounted inthis location as well. An open area should be chosen so as to allow the alarm sounds to be clearly heard.The switch on the module is to select between “Exciter Field Test Mode” and “Normal Operation”. With“Exciter Field Test Mode” selected, the beeper on the module will sound momentarily each time a validresponse is received from a Transponder. This helps to determine the outside limits of the detection field,and whether any null areas exist within this field.• Identify the location where the Audible Alarm Module will be located, ensuring that easy access canbe gained for the 6-conductor cable that connects it to the Elevator Cabinet.• Secure the Audible Alarm Module with the metal self-tapping screws provided, to the elevator carceiling or the wall above a suspended ceiling, or the “COP” panel.• Connect one end of the Audible Alarm Cable to the module and the other end to the connector marked“P4” on the Elevator Interface Module (EIM) within the cabinet.5.10.5. KeypadIt is recommended that the Keypad be mounted on the elevator “COP” panel at a height that allows easyaccess for the nursing staff who must enter a 3-7 digit code to enable the Bypass mode. If there is no sparespace available on the “COP” panel, the Keypad may be mounted in a suitable location on the elevatorwall.• Cut a hole in the “COP” panel to accommodate the rear of the Keypad assembly that will be inserted.• Drill holes for the screws, using the Keypad as a template to locate the correct positions for theseholes.• Thread the Keypad Cable supplied through the “COP” panel and up to the cabinet.• Plug one end of the cable to the Keypad and the other end to the EIM within the cabinet.
EXI HALO Installation & Operation Manual 981-000003-000EXI Wireless Systems 27 March 2000Revision 2.0• Secure the Keypad to the “COP” panel.Figure 22 - Elevator Keypad Installation5.10.6. “Door not Closed” ContactIn order for the system to operate correctly, the contacts supplied with the elevator controls that indicatewhen the elevator door is open or closed, have to be monitored by the HALO Elevator Controller. Thesecontacts have to be normally open when the doors are open, and closed when the doors are closed. If such apair of contacts is not available, a suitable set of contacts will need to be installed, as without these theHALO Elevator Controller will not shut off when the elevator doors are closed.• Run a pair of wires from the Form-C contacts on the EIM within the cabinet to the elevator door opencontrol contacts within the elevator control panel.• If necessary, run a pair of wires from the elevator control “Fire Condition” contacts to the “SystemOverride In” and “Common” inputs of the Elevator Controller within the cabinet.5.10.7. Door Control and Fire Alarm SupervisionThe elevator doors are held open in alarm conditions so that the elevator cannot move. The EIM within thecabinet has Form-C Normally Open (N/O) and Normally Closed (N/C) contacts that can be used to controlthe door.In the event of a fire alarm, a “system override” input is available on the Elevator Controller within thecabinet. When this input is shorted to ground, the system, and the door control function, will be inhibited soas to render the elevator operational. Only a few elevators require this function to be implemented as mostelevator systems have their own “Fire Condition” operating mode that seizes control of the elevator duringa fire condition. If in doubt, check with the elevator company.• Run a pair of wires from the Form-C contacts on the EIM within the cabinet to the elevator doorcontrol contacts within the elevator control panel.• If necessary, run a pair of wires from the elevator control “Fire Condition” contacts to the “OverrideIn” and “Common” inputs of the Elevator Controller within the cabinet.CLOSECLOSEDOORDOOR OPENOPENDOORDOORLOBBYLOBBY
EXI HALO Installation & Operation Manual 981-000003-000EXI Wireless Systems 28 March 2000Revision 2.05.10.8. System Adjustment and TestingUpon completion of the installation, follow this procedure for testing the system operation:• Power on the system, and set the Test Switch on the Audible Alarm Module to “Test”.• Expose a Transponder within the elevator cab. The pre-alarm beeper will beep as the system senses theTransponder within its field. The closer the beep intervals, the greater the sensitivity of theTransponder to the exciter field. Try various orientations and positions of the Transponder within thecab (don’t forget the floor!), to ensure adequate coverage.• In the event that the field appears to be too strong, indicated by the fact that a Transponder is sensedwell outside the elevator cab, adjust the “Range Adjust” setting within the HALO Controller locatedinside the Cabinet to optimize the exciter field (see Threshold setting instructions for HALO Controllerin Section 5.7.1.5)• Set the Tests Switch on the Audible Alarm back to Normal Operation.• Enter the elevator with a Transponder, which should immediately trigger a pre-alarm beeper tonelasting for 11 seconds. The Alarm light on the Keypad will flash momentarily during this time.• Leave the elevator cab within the 11 seconds, or place the Transponder within its metal foil bag(making sure it is tightly sealed). The system should reset itself and release the doors for normaloperation at the end of the 11-second pre-alarm period.• To test the Bypass function, expose the Transponder within the cab. The pre-alarm beeper will trigger.Enter “1938” on the Keypad, which should now allow normal operation of the elevator.• Test the “full alarm” mode by exposing a Transponder within the cab for greater than 11 seconds.After the pre-alarm beeper is heard for the 11-second duration, a loud alarm will begin. If theTransponder is removed from the cab during the full alarm period, the system should reset itself within6 seconds.5.11. SYSTEM GROUNDING CONSIDERATIONSThe difference between successful installations that are free of noise versus those that are plagued withunreliable operation is often poor grounding of the system elements. Ensure that no ground loops exist in thesystem, and that all the system components are adequately grounded.The figure below shows ground requirements for Controllers in the system. The chassis of the Controller isconnected to the building ground. The Receiver is also and the power supply and RS-485 grounds areconnected together for both the Controller and Receiver so that the signal at the RS-485 interface is referencedcorrectly.Controller(Top View)Device 1 Central Power SupplyCPS-24To Device 2 To Device 3To Device NRS485AWG14 (Ground) whichruns through entire ROAM II Network-+20-pinConnectorBuildingGroundRIMRS485+-

In this case a special“Crossover Cable” is required that attaches transmit pair of one station to the receive pair of the otherstation, and vice versa. When using a hub the cross over function is performed inside the repeatinghub.NOTE: It is recommended to use a hub to connect two Computers.• ADVANTAGES: a) Star Wiring topology supports easier maintenance & troubleshooting. Provides a modular approach to network construction. b) Inexpensive cabling & easy to install. c) Ethernet packets are routed more effectively & efficiently than the traditional Bus design.• DISADVANTAGES: 10Base2 supports longer segment lengths.• 5-4-3 RULE: With 10Base-T wired networks, a maximum of 5 wiring segments is allowed betweenany connected computers within the LAN and only 3 of the segments can be populated with consolesor server.• Therefore the maximum distance between two computers is 500 meters.• 10Base-T cable is susceptible to EMI. Try to keep cables away from Elevator motors, florescentlighting fixtures, uninterruptible power supplies, & other sources of EMI. Coiling up cables can alsocause interference.

EXI HALO Installation & Operation Manual 981-000003-000EXI Wireless Systems 31 March 2000Revision 2.07. Theory of OperationThe EXI HALO system uses Radio Frequency waves for communications between the HALO system componentsand the Tags. The HALO Controller continuously emits a 307 kHz RF frequency via the Exciter Antenna, setting upa field in its local area. When a Tag enters this field, a Radio Receiver within the Tag senses the 307 kHz RF fieldand transmits its identification information to the HALO Controller using a low level Radio Signal at frequency of434 MHz.Figure 23 - Controller Operation7.1. Tag CommunicationsAll Halo tags will transmit their serial number whenever they first enter a field created by a HALO controller.We refer to this type of communication as a TIF (tag in field) for the purpose of brevity. The HALO controlleris able to communicate directly with one Tag even if there are multiple Tags in the field since thecommunication is bi-directional. The Tag will not retransmit its serial number again until it is reset by thecontroller or out of the field for at least 6-18 seconds.If a Tag is able to receive communication from 2 different controllers in the case of field overlap, it will try torespond to both controllers thereby inhibiting any alarms. Each controller will see Tag communication when itdoesn’t expect it and report it as noise. While in the field, the Tag continues to communicate with the controllerbut in a limited way in order to conserve battery power. Because of this limited communication, the controllerhas no way of knowing when each Tag leaves the field. It can only tell that there is still at least 1 Tag in thefield. It takes 6-18 seconds of all the Tags being out of the field before the controller will recognize that thefield is empty.Some types of tags will also transmit their serial number when certain events occur to the tag. We refer to thistransmission as a TIC (tag initiated communication). All HALO Controllers and Receivers can pick up thesetransmissions. P-Tags transmit a TIC whenever the Tag is first removed from the body and again after variableintervals, the longest being 4 minutes. The Tag has to be put back on the body for 10 seconds to reset it beforeit will repeat its pattern.7.2. HALO System CommunicationsHALO Controllers and Receivers connected to the network report any events to the HALO PC Console, inaddition to responding to such events locally. A HALO Controller, if configured as such, will independentlycontrol its associated door in the presence of a Tag at its door, in addition to reporting such an event to theHALO PC Console. This ensures that local control and security is maintained regardless of the state of theHALO network or PC Console.

HALO CONTROLLERFigure 24 – Halo Controller Front PanelThe HALO controller handles all communication with the Tags, provides audible and visual indicators ofwhat state its in and prevents egress when necessary. This device is fully capable of operating in stand-alone mode although it does provide for communication to several different types of central reportingsystems. The front panel provides easy access to a number of different output formats as well as allowinginputs to alter some of its automatic functions as necessary. Local alarm and bypass annunciation isavailable through the DKX Keypad.The Tag serial numbers as well as status information is output in Weigand format on 2 of the output pins.This is a standard format used by many Card Access Systems. The MagOut line will engage a MagneticDoor Lock when Tag’s are detected in the field. Due to NFPA 101 regulations being adopted in manylocations, it may be mandatory to provide an automatic door release with 15 seconds after a door has beenlocked up. The controller provides 2 Form-C dry contacts rated at 1 Amp @ 30VDC. They will providenormally open or normally closed contacts and will change state to indicate the 2 different alarm conditions– Tag In Field (TIF) and Tag Initiated Communication (TIC). These Relays can be used to turn on remotesignaling devices such as:- Nurse Call system annunciators (should have latching function)- EXI model “SSM” 2-zone audible alarm with selectable tone sequences- EXI model “ANN-6L” Audible-Visual 6-zone, LED type non-supervised AnnunciatorSee Appendices for details.The HALO controller uses the Door Switch input to disable alarm reporting, when the door is closed. Thisis known as the Nurse Saver Feature. Although Tags are still detected and reported to a central system, noalarms are annunciated until the door opens. At that time, all the Tags are re-read by the controller so thatonly the Tags that are still in the field will cause an alarm. The door switch is also useful during bypass asthe controller will detect the door opening and then terminate the bypass as soon as the door closes. In theevent that a Tag is detected at the door with the door being closed, and the Tag remains at the door for aperiod exceeding 70 seconds, an Alarm condition is created. This is known as the Loiter Feature,preventing a patient from waiting at the door for an opportunity to exit when the door is bypassed, orotherwise opened.A remote system or switches can use three input lines to alter the normal operation of the controller.Unlock In provides a temporary release of the door, for a system override such as that from a fire alarmcontrol.. Alarm in will cause an immediate lockup of the door with the local and remote alarmannunciators on. Override In will disable the controller so that no tags are read and nothing will bereported to the Host computer.

The GREEN light willalternately flash with the RED light when the unit is in Bypass.During Bypass mode:• you have 8 seconds to bring the transponder into the field after entering the Bypass code on theKeypad, or the system will re-arm• once the Tag is in the field, bypass will end 8 seconds after all Tags leave the field or the doorcloses, or the maximum Bypass time is exceeded. Bypass can also be terminated by a Reset from aKeypad.• once you enter the field you have 90 seconds to pass through the detection zone• if you passed through within 90 seconds the system will rearm within 8 seconds or the system willgo into alarm after 90 seconds.• Any Tags still in the detection area 10 seconds after the door closes will be reread so they cantrigger an alarm if necessary.RESET request will turn off the TIC-alarm relay or terminate the Tag Alarm if the Continuous Alarm modewas selected and there are no more Tags in the field. It takes the controller 6 seconds to recognize that the Taghas actually left the field.STANDBY: The YELLOW light indicates the system power supply is ON.ALARM: The RED light flashing indicates that the controller is in Alarm. A beeper also provides an audiblealarm indication when this light is on. If the door is open, the Alarm light and beeper will beep with a long ONtime and the Alarm Relay will turn ON. This alarm will also be reported at the HALO PC Console.Pre-Alarm (Nurse Saver Feature)If the door is closed and there is a door switch installed, the Alarm light and beeper on the keypadassociated with that door will turn on and off with a short ON time, when a Tag enters the field.This is a known as a pre-alarm condition as a bad Tag is in the detection area but the door hasn’topened. Such an event is indicated at the HALO PC Console by a change in the appropriate floorbutton, and the device icon, from their normal color to yellow.Loiter AlarmIf the Tag remains in this field for 70 seconds, a “Loiter” alarm is reported at the HALO PC Consoleand the associated floor button, and device icon, turn red.READER MODE: A constant GREEN light indicates that the associated Controller is in “Reader Mode”. Thatis, the HALO system software has disabled that particular Controller for normal Tag communications, and hasenabled the Controller to detect the presence of Tags not in the Database inventory, for the purpose of addingsuch Tags into the Database inventory.The Keypads allow a unique programmable code for both reset and bypass. The Keypads come preset withdefault codes of “1938” for Bypass and “1939” for Reset. Refer to Keypad programming sheet forinstructions on how to change these codes.

HALO RECEIVERFigure 26 - HALO Receiver Front PanelThe HALO Receiver is used for detecting “off body” or Tag Initiated Communication (TIC) conditions, withina building. The Receiver does not have the capability of generating an Exciter Field, as does the HALOController.7.6. ELEVATOR CONTROLLERAlthough an Elevator Interface looks like a controller placed inside a box with added sirens and switch inputs,with the elevator firmware installed in the controller chassis, the Interface behaves much differently. This unitrequires a door switch be installed in order to operate properly. With the Elevator Door disable, the unit willprevent the elevator door from closing during Pre-Alarm and Full-Alarm. The Elevator Interface can bebypassed with a Keypad, if a Tag is present in the Elevator. Bypass is used to take Tagged patients onto theelevator. There is no local annunciation of a TIC alarm however the serial number is sent to the HOSTcomputer for remote annunciation.Figure 27 - Inside the HALO Elevator Cabinet7.6.1. Pre-AlarmThe Elevator Interface enters a Pre-Alarm state as soon as it detects a Tag in its field. The flashing Alarmlight on the Keypad and the Pre-alarm beeper indicate this state locally. This alarm will end when theuser requests a bypass or 6 seconds after all Tags leave the field.

Full-AlarmFull-Alarm is indicated locally by a steady Alarm light on the Keypad and the Full-Alarm siren. Thisalarm will continue until all the Tags leave the detection field or the user requests a Bypass.7.6.3. Elevator BypassBypass is initiated locally with the Keypad. The Bypass will only apply to the Tags that are currently in thefield. Any new Tags detected after the Bypass request will cause the Pre-Alarm to start again. If there areno Tags in the field at the time of bypass, there will be nothing to Bypass. If any Tags are bypassed, theBypass light on the Keypad will be on and will remain on until all the bypassed Tags have left the elevator.

HALO Console (Single Station)For Networked version see Halo Networked Dealers Manual: 984-000003-000The HALO Console is a Pentium based Host Computer with a Color Monitor, a Keyboard, mouse, and Speakers foraudible feedback. A ZIP drive is built into the computer to allow for periodic backup of data. The ZIP disk isremovable, allowing for off-site archiving of the backed-up database. The computer also has a built-in RS-485Interface card to which the HALO system components are connected.The Color Monitor comes in two flavors and may be a CRT based 17” monitor or a 15” LCD Flat Panel. AnUninterruptable Power Supply (UPS) is highly recommended to ensure that the computer is not affected in the eventof AC brown-outs, or in the case of loss of AC power.The Host Computer runs the HALO Application Software that provides the following major user functions:§ Management of the database that stores the identities of all the system components and Tags thatare deployed within the system§ Management and storage of logs of all the events that occur during use§ Annunciation of any of the alarm conditions that may exist, showing location of such an alarmcondition in a graphical format overlaid over the floor plan of the building in which the system isinstalledFor stand-alone HALO systems that only require localized alarm and control, the Host Computer may not berequired. The computer comes pre-loaded with the Microsoft Windows 98 Operating System, and the EXI HALOConsole. The EXI HALO Console application is the primary interface for the user, annunciating Alarm informationat the same time as logging all activity on the network. The Halo system has three separate security access levels,namely “USER”, “SUPERVISOR” and “DEALER”.As an installer, you will be interested primarily in the Dealer mode for installation purposes, and the other modes fortraining purposes. When the computer is first powered up, the “User” screen is automatically launched, and thedefault floor plan will be seen. Pressing “ALT” “D” simultaneously accesses dealer mode, while the Supervisormode requires “ALT” ”L”. To exit the HALO Console, press “ALT” ”Q” twice while in Dealer mode and type in“Dealer” for the user and password fields.

Connecting to the Host ComputerUnpack the Host Computer and the Monitor and place them in approximately their permanent location. If aUPS has been supplied, place the UPS next to the Computer. Ensure that there is a suitable power outlet in thevicinity of the location, and connect the UPS to this output. Attach the Monitor Cable, Keyboard, Mouse andthe Power Cable to the Computer, and connect the Power Cable plug to the output of the UPS.Connect the 3-pin RS-485 connector on the Network Cable to the RS-485 Interface Card socket at the back ofthe Computer, and connect the DB-9 connector at the other end of the cable to the PC Terminator Box. The useof a Terminator Box is not necessary, but is highly recommended so as to enable relocation of the Computerwithout having to also relocate the RS-485 line that runs to the networked devices. In the event that the PCTerminator Box is not used, the 3-pin RS-485 connector can be spliced directly to the RS-432 network line,and the DB-9 connector may be discarded.Figure 32 - Host Computer Connections Turn the UPS power switch to ‘ON”, and then power up the computer.

The maximum allowablesize for a floor plan is 1010 pixels in the horizontal plane, and 660 pixels in the vertical plane. This imageshould be stored along with other floor plan images in the directory named “C:\ProgramFiles\eXI\Halo\floor plans\” which is the default directory for floor plans set up at the factory.Once a bitmap has been stored in the above location, click on the “Add” button in the Dealer Toolbar. Apanel appears as shown below. Type in the name of the floor, and then click on the “Browse“ button tolocate the floor plan in the default directory described above. The floor plan will be placed under a newbutton that has the name of the floor as you had entered.8.2.3. Adding System DevicesNew System Devices such as Controllers, Receivers and Elevator Controllers can be added to the system ifnecessary. Remember that all devices in the original installation plan are already added into the applicationat the factory, and therefore there should be very little need to add more in the field. This may only becomenecessary because of substituting a RIM device, or adding more nodes.In order to add devices, click on the “Dealer Only” tab and click on “Add”. Fill in the appropriateinformation in the “Add Node to System” panel and click on “OK”. Note that the “Node Number” is theserial number of the RIM associated with the device added.Figure 40 - Adding a Node to the SystemIf you try and leave the “Dealer Only” screen after changes are made, a warning pane appears.

ANN-6L SIX ZONE ANNUNCIATORFor situations that warrant using the HALO Controller in a stand-alone configuration, without theComputer Console, the ANN-6L may be used as the annunciator panel. The ANN6L is a six-zone centralalarm panel, usually mounted at the nursing station, reception or a guard station to monitor the status of upto 6 alarm zones. Each additional ANN-6L will allow six more zones to be monitored. The reset switchescan be ganged so that only one reset switch needs to be pressed to reset all the panels.Alarms can also be monitored at separate locations with additional ANN-6L panels. These secondarypanels provide either common or local alarm status. Reset can be performed on any ANN-6L when used forcommon alarm indication.• Six Bi color LEDs indicate alarm priority.(red = latching : yellow = non-latching)• Two distinctive piezo alarms indicate alarm priority. These may be disabled during install.• Latching and non latching alarms.• Alarm inputs accepted via N/O or N/C dry contacts or a voltage transition (switch selectedfunction)• Reset function can be ganged with other annunciator resets for remote operation• Silence button deactivates audible alarm, new alarms activate audible alarm• Onboard Form C relay for auxiliary output.• Mounts in a standard 2 gang electrical box.

Data is sent to the HALO Computer, but Relays #1 and #2 are not activated (Pins 15 to 20). The outboard relay is energized and input 1B of ANN-6L is grounded so that the ANN-6L displays a flashing yellow light (1B is a non-latched input).However, if the door is sensed to be open when a Transponder enters the field, the alarm will be instant and alarm data will be sent to the Computer, and both Relays #1 and #2 will be activated for the duration set within the Controller. Input 1A of the ANN-6L is grounded through Relay #1 of the Controller, resulting in a flashing red light and audible alarm (if enabled). As input 1A is a latching input, the ANN-6L requires to be Reset for the alarm condition to be silenced.Low Input forcesANN-6L to Reset
