this manual is for exclusive operation by trained employees. Only qualified personnel that know the potential dangers involved should perform the installation, settings, maintenance and repair of the units used. Operational Safety The correct and safe use of these systems assumes that operating and service personnel follow the safety measures described in the manual alongside the generally acceptable safety procedures. If there is a possibility that safe operation cannot be guaranteed the system must be switched off and secured against accidental use. Then the service unit responsible must be informed. Safety Documents This ILR system was designed, tested and supplied in perfect condition according to document IEC348 Safety Requirements for Electronic Units of Class 1. Condensate / Change of Temperature Moving the systems from a cold to a warm environment could lead to dangerous situations due to condensation. Therefore it must be ensured that the system can adjust itself to the warmer temperature. Do not open the housing There is no need to open the housing in order to set any ILR unit. No unit has any internal setting elements or displays. The i-PORT M350 is not configured directly. It is managed via the master unit on the i-BUS, the i-HUB. Earthing Before establishing any connections the housing of the system must be earthed. Connections / Power Supply The supply circuits must comply with the conditions set out for the SELV circuits (see EN 60950). The signal circuits must comply with the conditions set out for the SELV circuits (see EN 60950). Use screened cables for the power supply. This is the only way to achieve the prescribed EMC. During maintenance damage could occur if printed circuit boards or cables are connected or disconnected whilst the power supply is still on. Therefore only work on the connection and the components when they are not live. Page 8 of 30 i-PORT M350 Fuses Only experts who are aware of the dangers involved may replace the fuses. It must be ensured that only fuses of the required current rating and the correct type are used for replacement. The use of repaired fuses and/or short-circuiting the fuse holders is prohibited. Spare Parts We recommend that only personnel, original products, spare and replacement parts authorized by IDENTEC SOLUTIONS be used for installation, service and repair. Otherwise IDENTEC SOLUTIONS does not accept any responsibility for materials used, work carried out or possible consequences. Electrostatic Discharge Semi-conductors of the type MOS or CMOS as well as two-pin types and precision resistance are sensitive to ESD. All components, printed circuit boards and auxiliary systems should therefore always be classed as sensitive to electrostatic discharge. Before opening the cover the unit should be placed onto an ESD-protected surface. As with all work on modern electronic modules the use of ESD clamps and ESD mats during work on the unit is recommended. Sufficiently protect all printed circuit boards that were removed from the unit from damage. Observe all normal precautions for the use of tools. Use ESD-protected packaging material. Never use measuring units with low impedance for measuring or testing systems with semi-conductor components. Never use high voltage testing units or dielectric test units to test systems with semi-
conductor components. If it is necessary to check the isolating properties of the field wiring, the assemblies (electronic units and sensors) should be disconnected. Earth the test units. IDENTEC SOLUTIONS does not accept returns of products where the regulations concerning the ESD precautions and protective packaging materials were not followed.

The objective is wireless and automated data collection over large distances. HOW RFID WORKS Data is transmitted via high frequency radio waves between a tag and an interrogator. Information stored on the tag can be read and processed. Data can be exchanged over large distances, even in extreme environmental conditions such as dust, dirt, paint or oil. The core element of the system is the active ILR tag, which can communicate its unique ID at a rapid rate of transmission over very large distances (up to 500 meters/1500 feet). The reader (i-PORT M350) can decode data simultaneously from hundreds of these tags within seconds. Connection of the reader to a host computer system enables global data accessibility via a variety of software platforms (Internet). CHARACTERISTICS OF ILR GEN300 System Overview Variable read/write range from just a few meters up to 500 meters (1500 feet) Large read/write range of up to 500 meters (1500 feet) Long transponder battery lifetime (up to 3 years) Anti-collision process and multi-tag handling UHF Frequency (850 928 MHz) IDENTEC SOLUTIONS ILR-System consists of 4 main components:
Active tags (also called transponders) with internal power supply, which are used to identify goods or assets Reader (i-PORT; fixed-mounted) or handheld devices (mobile) which exchange information with the tags and host computer systems Various antenna types/characteristics for different applications A central computer system as basis for control and monitoring Page 11 of 30 Installation and Hardware Manual 3.2 Component Overview i-CAL Software i-HUB ILR Gateway i-PORT M350 ILR Reader Module i-Q350 ILR Transponder ILR System Components Tags from the i-Q350 series monitor, record and transmit stored data over large distances. The high data transmission rate ensures optimal communication. Data can be written to or read from the tags by means of the fixed interrogator (i-PORT) and then transmitted via LAN (or WLAN, PPP, etc.) to a host computer network. Application software as well as all IDENTEC SOLUTIONS products can be seamlessly integrated into existing software environments by means of standard interfaces (TCP/IP, FTP, HTTP, etc.) Data can also be written to or read from tags by a mobile handheld interrogator. Thanks to the i-CARD CF, an RFID interrogator in a Compact Flash format, a flexible and adaptable, practically hardware independent application is created. The i-CARD can be used in third-party handheld devices from a variety of manufacturers (Symbol, Latschbacher, Teklogix) Handheld readers, based on the Compact Flash i-CARD CF, can also be used to receive transmissions from the tags over distances up to 30 m. After decoding this data can either be processed locally or transferred to a network via optional radio cards (WLAN, GPRS). Page 12 of 30 i-PORT M350 3.3 System ComponentsData Tags 3.3.1 i-Q350 Tags Identification Tracking and Tracing This active tag is particularly suited for:
Temperature Monitoring Localization Using ILR technology, distances of up to 500 meters can be achieved with this tag. Used in combination with the i-PORT, several hundred tags can be interrogated nearly simultaneously, thanks to a sophisticated anti-collision algorithm. i-Q350 tags are available in a variety of configurations, i.e. with 32 Kbytes of memory, an optional LED for visual recognition, push-button and optional temperature logging function. Furthermore, they are available at 868 and 920 MHz (dual frequency) for use in Europe and America for transcontinental applications (dual frequency). 3.3.2 i-Q350 WAM Identification Tracking and Tracing This active tag is particularly suited for:
Using ILR technology, distances of up to 500 meters can be achieved with this tag. An operation lifetime of up to 3 years (at 600 128-bit readings per day) can be expected due to the tags minimal energy requirement. System Monitoring Localization Used in combination with the i-PORT, several hundred tags can be interrogated nearly simultaneously, thanks to a sophisticated anti-collision algorithm. i-Q350 tags are available in a variety of configurations, i.e. with 32 Kbytes of memory, an optional LED for visual recognition, push-button and optional temperature logging function.

Page 14 of 30 i-PORT M350 3.4 System ComponentsReaders 3.4.1 i-HUB Readers from the i-HUB series are part of the newest generation of IDENTEC SOLUTIONS Intelligent Long Range (ILR) RFID readers. The i-HUB collects, filters and edits data from transponders and sends them to a Host System via GPRS or Ethernet. Systems equipped with ILR tags and readers provide identification and real-time data collection with maximum accuracy and minimal effort in wireless applications such as:
tracking, and localization of assets and personnel. identification Power Supply The i-HUB is supplied a local 24 VDC supply. Additional daisy-chained i-PORTs are also supplied via the i-BUS. i-HUB i-PORT M350 i-PORT M350 i-PORT M350 i-PORT M350 i-BUS (RS422) Host (Ethernet) Example of i-HUB with up to 8 i-PORT M350 Page 15 of 30 Installation and Hardware Manual 3.4.2 i-PORT M350 The i-PORT M350 is a reader for the i-Q350 series of ILR Response Tags. Built into a compact metal housing, the i-PORT M350 reads data from and writes data to the i-Q350 tags at distances of up to 500 meters
(1500 feet). Connection to the host system is established via a RS422 interface, resulting in the capability to connect up to 8 readers in a Daisy Chain using commercially available CAT 5 cables and connectors. A simple master/slave protocol enables data exchange. Not only does the protocol contain the data received from the tag but it can also provide information about the time of data reception, field strength and information about the number of times the tag has been received by the reader. Page 16 of 30 i-PORT M350 3.5 System ComponentsAntennas IDENTEC SOLUTIONS antennas are distinguished by their compact design. A variety of antennas can be used, depending on application. The antennas are differentiated by characteristics such as polarization, apex angle, and gain. Optimal fit to the read zone is achieved by the right choice of antenna (characteristics) and receive sensitivity. As the antennas are passive system elements, no tuning is required, which facilitates installation and maintenance. 3.5.1 Elliptical Polarized Antennas Because of the wide apex angle (120), a large read zone is achieved, which is desirable when a large quantity of tags need to be read at one time, or when tags moving at great speeds need to be interrogated. Since the polarization is elliptical, orientation of the tag relative to the antenna is not important; if the tag is in front of the antenna the tag may be polarized horizontally or vertically along the line of sight of the antenna. Due to its small size and weight, this antenna is very easy to integrate. Orientation Diagrams: Elliptical polarized antenna Elevation For this antenna this is the maximum transmit power setting:

-8 dBm Azimuth Page 17 of 30 Installation and Hardware Manual 3.5.2 Linear Polarized Antennas Because of the smaller apex angle (60), this antenna is more suited to selective data collection and restriction of read zones. Depending on the direction of mounting, the antennas field is either vertically or horizontally polarized, requiring the tag to have the same orientation. Because of the greater gain, longer read ranges can be achieved with this antenna compared to the elliptical polarized type above.

It is intended to always use the mounting kit. If mounting on a DIN rail is desired, the additional clamp is mounted on the back side of the mounting kit. Use the two mounting holes (diameter 4,5 mm) to attach the i-PORT M350 mounting kit to a suitable mounting surface. Once the mounting kit is fixed, clipped in the i-PORT M350 reader. Please add to the i-PORT M350 dimensions approximately 70 mm on the antenna side and 40 mm on the cable side to calculate the required mounting space. The i-PORT M350 weights approx. 310 g in total including all mounting parts. Enclosure rating is IP40 without the end cap and IP64 with. If greater enclosure rating is required, the i-PORT M350 must be placed in an additional protective housing, in this situation the end cap could be removed.

The signal circuits must comply with the requirements of the SELV circuits (see EN 60950). Use a ferrite rod for all cables and place it close to the units. A screened cable must be used for the power supply. Only then is the required EMC achieved. The device uses RS422 levels on its RX and TX Pins, although Ethernet jack/plugs mechanically fit, the device is not Ethernet compatible!

If the basic check of the operational behavior is to be carried out using a (portable) PC a final check via the intended user control system should also be carried out. Detailed operational check Page 26 of 30 i-PORT M350 6 Troubleshooting 6.1 General This chapter covers how faults can be recognized and rectified. There are potentially four main problem sources:
The user control system, including task requirements, communication cables, peripheral units with possible object recognition switches. The ILR system including peripheral units and their cables, also potential object recognition switches. The environment including large objects between antenna and tag, electrical disturbance sources, intervention by persons, etc. The quality of the technical design, including alignment between antenna, data, ratio of task requirements/available communication time etc. The information about system performance is contained in the relevant datasheets. When planning the total system do not forget these problem sources and Fault finding procedures on system level should possibly be included in the host system. How this could look in detail depends on the relevant system concept and very likely varies from one system to another. 6.2 Status Display (LEDs) ANT 1/ANT 2 LED blinks green when a telegram preamble has been detected. It blinks RED when a tag telegram has been decoded correctly. RUN Device is running properly (LED blinks at approx 1Hz) BUS Blinks GREEN when data is received from the host. Blinks RED when sending data to the host ERR Blinks RED when an error occurs Page 27 of 30 Installation and Hardware Manual 7 Maintenance 7.1 General In principle, the ILR system is maintenance-free. When correctly installed it operates for many years without any problems. 7.2 Precautionary Maintenance Are all casing intact?
Regular checking of all ports and cables belonging to the system is recommended. Unstable connections could lead to damage and malfunctions of the system and therefore should be repaired as soon as possible. A Brief Checklist Is there suddenly a malfunction at a specific unit?
Are all connectors securely fastened?
Are all connectors intact?
Are all screws still tight?
Are all cables intact?
7.3 Exchanging an i-PORT within the i-BUS daisy chain Exchange only one unit after another, not several in one step. Exchange the reader with one of the same type. The i-PORT automatically scans the i-BUS every 10 seconds, so it will automatically recognize the exchanged device. 7.4 Firmware Update The firmware is stored in a FLASH memory and can be updated if needed. Page 28 of 30 i-PORT M350 7.5 Spare Parts 7.5.1 Recommended spare parts stock In order to keep the down time of the system during malfunctions as short as possible it is recommended to have certain spare parts in stock. At least one central unit, one antenna and one antenna cable should be available. With larger systems with more than approx. 15 i-PORTs the doubling of the recommended stock quantity should be considered. Furthermore, it is recommended to have several spare tags in stock, corresponding to approx. 0.5 1 % of the total number of tags. 7.5.2 Preparing the spare parts In general all spare parts can be used immediately after delivery from IDENTEC SOLUTIONS. However, for the compact communicator there are various settings of the communication parameters. In order to keep the down times short it is recommended to set these parameters before the component is entered into the spare part stock system.
