http://go.deister.com/ce Approved for use in all European countries. FCC 15.105 Statement:

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. 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 interfer-

ence by one or more of the following measures:

Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna. Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver. Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected. Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help. Changes or modifications not expressly approved by Deister could void the users authority to operation the equipment under FCC 15.21 requirements. Industry Canada Statement:

This must be done if the device is on either end of the bus. Most RS-485-buses require termination resistors across the conduc-

tor pair. The need for termination has to be checked for each installation. Especially for high data rates or long cables, the resistors are absolutely necessary. Only the ends of the main cable require termination resistors, additional resistors load the driver excessively. The resistor value matches the cable's differential-

mode characteristic impedance (100-120 Ohm). On the RS-485-bus you need a controller with fail-safe biasing, meaning a pull-up and a pull-down resistor on the cable. The fail-safe biasing provides a known state in case there is no active driver on the bus and therefore it is essential, independent from data rates and length of the cable. Controller

(with fail-safe biasing incl. termination resistor) Example:

(680R+680R) || 130R = 119R

Recommendation for the cable:

1200m (4000 feet) twisted pair, cable-cross-section at least 0,22mm (AWG 24) Differential-mode characteristic impedance 100-120 Ohm 6. Signalization (Factory settings) 1) Yellow LED: Line voltage indicator After connecting the power supply, the device shows that it is ready to operate by permanently activating the yellow LED. The yellow LED is off for 200ms, when a transponder has been read. The yellow LED is off during configuration via DeisterConfig. The yellow LED is off during a firmware update. 2) Green LED: Read indicator The green LED activates after connecting the power supply during initialization phase. The green LED is permanently off in operating mode. The green LED is on for 200ms, when a transponder has been read. The green LED is flashing during configuration via DeisterConfig. 3) Red LED: Status indicator The red LED activates after connecting the power supply during the initialization phase. The red LED is permanently off in operating mode. The red LED is flashing during configuration via DeisterConfig. The red LED is on during a firmware update. preliminary_fcc_lca-500_manual_en_896322_v200428_rev_3.docx 9 4) Beeper After connecting the power supply, the beeper gives a 30ms beep when operational mode is reached. The beeper is on for 200ms, when a transponder has been read (this may be changed in configuration). All signalization devices are configurable. 6.1 Configuration via DeisterConfig Autotrim is automatically triggered on every startup of the reader. Connect the LCA 500 to a communication adapter (e.g.: SNG 3). Connect the communication adapter to a PC. Supply LCA 500 with DC Voltage 1224V. Launch DeisterConfig.exe The following start screen appears:

The content of the start screen depends on the connected devices. In this example the LCA 500 is connected to COM8. Double click with left mouse button on corresponding COM PORT. 10 preliminary_fcc_lca-500_manual_en_896322_v200428_rev_3.docx The configuration data of the device is loaded from the device and will be displayed:

6.2 Device Info Field Device Info contains information about the device:

preliminary_fcc_lca-500_manual_en_896322_v200428_rev_3.docx 11 6.3 Basic Setup The following parameters may be changed from the Basic Setup panel:

Field ID: Changing the Field ID is only necessary, if more than one device is mounted within the Radio Range of the transponders. This requires the field ID to be unique. Reading range control: This will adjust the read range from 10% to 100%

Wait for guard timeout (ms): This is the time it takes for the locator to respond when a Need Guard transponder enters the field without its Guard. Signal not polled: If this option is activated, the locator signals by flashing yellow when it is not polled. 6.4 Brightness The brightness of the individual LED colours can be adjusted. LED test can be used to check (first click on test, then the color). 6.5 Trigger Setup 12 Use input 1 of locator as trigger: The locator field can be triggered by an external signal on input 1. Trigger time after edge (ms): For edge controlled triggering, the time has to be specified. preliminary_fcc_lca-500_manual_en_896322_v200428_rev_3.docx If the external triggering is deactivated again, the locator must be restarted after saving in order for the option to be accepted. preliminary_fcc_lca-500_manual_en_896322_v200428_rev_3.docx 13 7. Firmware update via DeisterConfig Connect the locator to a communication adapter (e.g.: SNG 3). Connect communication adapter to a PC. Supply locator with DC Voltage in the range of 1224V. Launch DeisterConfig.exe. The following start screen appears:

The content of the start screen depends on the connected devices. In this example the locator is connected to COM8. Double click with left mouse button on corresponding COM PORT. 14 preliminary_fcc_lca-500_manual_en_896322_v200428_rev_3.docx The configuration data of the device is loaded from the device and will be displayed:

In order to update the firmware of the device, select Update firmware from the menu Device. Select the folder where the firmware is stored. After double clicking on the file, the update process starts:

After the firmware is updated successfully, the following dialog appears:

preliminary_fcc_lca-500_manual_en_896322_v200428_rev_3.docx 15 8. Installation Instructions 8.1 Possible interference sources It is possible that external interference sources will influence the read range, e.g. CRT monitors, switching power supplies, power cables parallel to data cables, mounting on metal etc. In particular, the reader should be mounted on non-metallic material, such as plastic or wood. Metal screws

(M6 - ISO 1207, 4762 or 7045) for mounting the reader have an insignificant influence on the read range and may thus be used. With growing distance between reader and an interference source, the influence decreases. Use only regulated power supplies. deister electronic GmbH offers suitable power supplies. To reduce the influence of external electrical interference, connect the cable shield to ground (GND) of the power supply. 8.2 Field Characteristics The following diagram shows the read range of the LCA 500. Please note that the read range varies de-

pending on the position of the transponder as shown in the diagram below. The presence of any magnetic material such as steel changes the given shape. 100 % Performance 80 % Performance LCA 500 16 preliminary_fcc_lca-500_manual_en_896322_v200428_rev_3.docx 9. Dos and donts Do not place transponder in short circuit coil or in metal frame!

Install transponder in front of or behind the short-

circuit coil or metal!

Do not install reader directly on metal!

One meter distance to a metal sheet results in a ne-

glectable effect on the field. preliminary_fcc_lca-500_manual_en_896322_v200428_rev_3.docx 17 Do not use near devices that interfere in the range of 125 kHz / 868 MHz (e.g., old forklifts). No interference in the range of 125 kHz / 868 MHz guarantees optimal performance.
