Introduction 4 D1685 Rev -Draft April 2015 1 Introduction DartTags are a wireless ultra-wideband (UWB) device from Zebra Technologies that are used for real-time tracking and identification of assets and personnel. DartTags transmit UWB pulses which are detected by a series of Dart UWB receivers. Dart receivers report detected tag events to the Dart RTLS location processing hub where tag location information is computed and reported. The DartTag tag family consists of the UWT-1100/1101, the UWT-1200, the UWT-1300 and the UWT-1301. DartTags provide extended range and precision that is unmatched by conventional RFID solutions. These UWB tags uniquely provide reliability and accuracy in difficult electromagnetic and multipath environments, along with superb battery life for use in demanding industrial requirements. 2 Installation and Operation DartTags are shipped with the transmitter off. With a proper Dart RTLS system in place, the installation of DartTags is complete when the tag is activated. Tag transmitters are turned on (activated) using a ZLS configuration tool. DartTags transmitting continuously at one blink per second are expected to last multiple years. Batteries are non-replaceable. 3 Orientation UWT-1100 \ UWT-1101 The UWT-1100 and UWT-1101 DartTag (asset tag) is designed to provide optimal performance when used with either the top or bottom side of the tag pointing upwards. The picture below shows the top and back side of the tag and the proper orientation.
Adjustment 5 D1685 Rev -Draft April 2015 UWT-1200 The UWT-1200 DartTag Badge (badge tag) is designed to provide optimal performance when used in a specific orientation during use. The picture below shows the front and back side of the tag and the proper orientation. UWT-1300 The UWT-1300 is designed to provide optimal performance when the top side of the tag is pointing upwards. The picture below shows the top side of the tag and the proper orientation. UWT-1301 The UWT-1301 is designed to provide optimal performance when the top side of the tag is pointing upwards. The picture below shows the top side of the tag and the proper orientation. 4 Adjustment No adjustment is necessary once a DartTag is activated. The user may choose to program the tag transmit rate with a Zebra configuration tool.
