iSCAN™
User’s Manual
Background.
The iSCAN™ is 2.4GHz bi-directional radio transceiver equipped with a CCD barcode scan engine and
status LCD screen. A User may configure the device to execute a number of commands based on the
type and content of Code-128 or Code-39 encoded barcodes. The iSCAN™ may interact with iControl
iTAG™ or iCHIME™ products through the Marine Asset Tag Tracking System (MATTS) communication
protocol to build a sensor network, the purpose of which is to support tracking shipping containers in a
worldwide supply chain. An iSCAN™ utilizes a low power, wireless, radio operating in the 2.4 GHz band
as its primary mode of communication. The wireless radio operates in compliance with IEEE Standard
802.15.4-2006. The iSCAN™ utilizes the same radio, processor, and User interface software as iControl’s
iTAG™ and iCHIME™ products. The iSCAN™ also supports the same command list as iControl’s iTAG™.
The iSCAN™ features two pushbuttons that cycle through and select menu options on the LCD screen, as
well as a push-and-hold trigger to initiate a barcode scan. There are no other connections except the
battery charging contacts. All iSCAN™s should use an iControl provided charger.

Other Features.
In addition to the wireless radio, the iSCAN™ provides other features for system integration and use.
1. Various LED indicators reveal status information to a User, such as power on, low battery, active
radio communications, and good or bad barcode scan.
2. An LCD screen reveals in-depth information to a User, such as scanned device barcode ID for
verification, warehouse location, battery level, barcode scan status.
3. A push button trigger on the bottom of the iSCAN™ activates the barcode scan beam. This beam
is active as long as the trigger is held but will deactivate on successful barcode scan.
4. There is an onboard temperature sensor integrated with iSCAN™. The default iSCAN™ status
data packet includes the device temperature, radio signal strength, and battery status.
5. The iSCAN™ has non-volatile on board data storage which may collect data for later upload.
6. iSCAN™ provides date time stamps for all data. The onboard clock for the iSCAN™ is set to UTC
by readers in the network.

Functional Block Diagram.
The iSCAN™ module integrates a low power microprocessor and a 2.4Ghz radio. The iSCAN™ includes a
software user interface for radio control and data transmission.
Please note that the iSCAN™ uses the same command list as the iTAG™ command list. For iSCAN™
command and control, please refer to the iTAG™ Command List for a complete description of commands
that control the iSCAN™ wireless barcode scanner.
The iSCAN™ is equipped with an integrated trace antenna rated at 3.5 dBi. All mobile applications will
utilize either the integral antenna provided with the iSCAN™ or an internal omni-directional antenna
rated on 4.4 dBi.
NOTE: Users may not modify the antenna or its connection in anyway or risk violating radio law.

Module Unique Address Identification.
Each iSCAN™ is assigned a unique 8 byte MAC address by iControl Incorporated. The MAC address is
used for radio network address identification. The MAC address can not be modified by the User and is
located in protected flash memory. Figure 5 depicts the communication protocol between iControl
iSCAN™ and the iGATE™ reader. The communication protocol utilizes a unique 8 byte MAC address
defined by the IEEE 802.15.4 standard.
In Figure 5,
The iSCAN™ address is (0x0035A92300000002).
The iGATE™ address is (0x0035A9230A010203)

FCC Compliance:
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant
to Part 15 of the FCC rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful
interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency
energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference
to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular
installation.
Troubleshooting:
If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be
determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference
by one or more of the following measures:
1. Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
2. Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
3. Connect the equipment to an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.
4. Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician.
Conditions:
Operation is subject to the following two conditions:
1. This device may not cause harmful interference
2. This device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired
operation.
