Connect only recommended power supply to the unit.
Place the unit on a stable and non-slip surface. SETUP The diagram shows the available ports of the SMN-870. They are located on the back of the unit. The SMN-870 can be powered in 2 ways: external powered by DC adapter or POE (Power over Ethernet). 1. DC adapter powered into the DC port. Plug a suitable adapter (e.g. 12vdc 1A) such as the one shown below 2. POE powered Plug the LAN cable into the LAN port, making sure the line is a standard 802.3af POE source such as the one shown below. Once the power is supplied and the LAN is plugged in, the SMN-870 will automatically turn on and start searching for a server connection. To configure the device, connect a RS-232 null-modem cable to port 1. Open a serial terminal program (e.g. Hyper Terminal for Windows) at 19200bps/N/1 and type in the appropriate information e.g.:
SS=10.0.0.64<enter> (the server IP address) PP=25004<enter> (the port to connect) NM=255.0.0.0<enter> (the netmask address) GW=10.0.0.1<enter> (the gateway IP address) DHCP=True<enter> (for dynamic IP address) Or DHCP=False<enter> (for fixed IP address) Note: for fixed IP address, the user must configure an IP address by typing e.g.:
IP=10.0.0.65<enter>
When the parameters are correctly entered, the Hyper Terminal will echo back the message. Alternatively, to check if the parameters have been entered correctly, use the ? operator to query e.g.:
SS=?<enter> (to display the currently configured server IP addresses) PP=?<enter> (to display the currently configured port) NM=?<enter> (to display the current netmask address) GW=?<enter> (to display the current gateway IP address) DHCP=?<enter> (to display the current DHCP status) IP=?<enter> (to display the current IP address of the device) MAC=?<enter> (to display the device MAC address) DID=?<enter> (to display the device serial number) When the server connection is successful, the left green LED will light up. The device is now ready for use. Description The SMN-870 SmartNODE is designed as part of the SmartSense suite of products as an interface to communicate with tags such as TSS-870. It transmits LF frequencies, and transmits and receives UHF signals. The SMN-870 has a user interface consisting of a LCD display, 3 bi-colour LEDs, and 6 pushbuttons. The descriptions are as follows:
1. Left wireless zone box: proximity communication surface 2. Buzzer(internal): To serve as alert for positive keypress or notification 3. LCD: To display information 4. Left LED: server connection status indicator 5. Centre LED: Tag communication indicator 6. ON button: To turn on a tag 7. OFF/END button: To turn off a tag or end a process 8. STATUS button: To check the status of the tag 9. ISSUE button: to issue a tag 10. RETURN button: to return a tag 11. DISCARD button: to discard a tag In some installations, the SMN-870 is provided with a barcode scanner to supplement its operation. For these cases, the barcode scanner should be connected to RS-232 port 2. USAGE The SMN-870 works in 2 modes: HSA mode and Hospital mode. In HSA mode, only the ON, OFF, and STATUS buttons are available. In Hospital mode, only ISSUE, RETURN, STATUS, and DISCARD buttons are available. Note: the unit will not respond to user input if server connection is not detected (i.e. left green LED is not lit up) HSA mode operation Turn On tags Place a tag (e.g. TSS-870) onto the box on the left. Press ON to turn on the tag. LCD display shows Please wait, then switches to ID:xxxxxxxxxxxx Logging,Batt:xx% (centre green LED lights up briefly), then to ID:xxxxxxxxxxxx Tag is ON Turn Off tags Place a tag (e.g. TSS-870) onto the box on the left. Press OFF to turn off the tag. LCD display shows Please wait, then switches to ID:xxxxxxxxxxxx OFF,Batt:xx% (centre green LED lights up briefly), then to ID:xxxxxxxxxxxx Tag is OFF Status of tags Place a tag (e.g. TSS-870) onto the box on the left. Press STATUS to display the tags current status. LCD display shows ID:xxxxxxxxxxxx OFF,Batt:xx%
(centre green LED lights up briefly), or ID:xxxxxxxxxxxx Logging,Batt:xx%
(centre green LED lights up briefly). Hospital mode operation Issuing tags Press ISSUE button to start the issue process. The LCD will display: Issuing Mode. Place a tag onto the box on the left. The LCD will display:
ID:xxxxxxxxxxxx Cur:xx Max:xx C. Press ISSUE button again to confirm issue of the tag. Remove the tag and place another tag onto the box. Press ISSUE button again to confirm issue of the tag. Repeat by placing new tags onto the box and pressing ISSUE. End the process by pressing END button. Returning tags Place a tag onto the box on the left and press RETURN button. LCD display briefly switches to Returning, then to ID:xxxxxxxxxxxx Cur:xx Max:xx C

Discarding tags Place a tag onto the box on the left and press Discard button. LCD display shows ID:xxxxxxxxxxxx Scan Reason (centre green LED lights up briefly). Use the barcode scanner to scan a valid discard reason from the supplied barcodes sheet. LCD switches to ID:xxxxxxxxxxxx Discard Success, then back to Date: xx/xx/xx Time xx:xx:xx Repeat the whole process for the next tag. Status of tags Place a tag (e.g. TSS-870) onto the box on the left. Press STATUS to display the tags current status. LCD display shows ID:xxxxxxxxxxxx OFF,Batt:xx%
