Introduction The VP1103 Panel reader identifies RFID ear tags attached to individual animals. The identification can be used for registration of the animals that have passed the Panel reader unit

(VP1103). A weight scale can optionally be connected to the Panel reader. This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules and to RSS-210 of Industry Canada. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation. 1.1. Description The VP1103 Panel reader system consists of a Panel reader unit that is connected to a VPU using CAN communication or a connection to a PC or a weight scale through RS232. 1.

Overview VP1103 Panel reader system VP1103-200PM-00GB-Panel reader Manual version 1.1 / Page 1 1.2. Functioning The VP1103 Panel reader creates a magnetic field around the antenna that is used to identify the tags on ISO frequency 134.2 kHz. The Panel reader is connected to a VPU using CAN communication or to a PC or a weight scale through RS232. The Panel reader identifies animals that pass the Panel reader unit. When an animal is identified by the Panel reader, the tag number will be dumped. 3 1. VP1103 Panel reader unit 2. Responder number

Connection between the Panel reader and the dumped tag numbers The tag numbers are stored via CAN communication in the VPU or dumped according to the ISO protocol 11784/11785 via an RS232 connection in e.g. the Windows Hyper Terminal communication program. VP1103-200PM-00GB-Panel reader Manual version 1.1 / Page 2 2. Installing the VP1103 Panel reader 2.1. Mounting the VP1103 Panel reader Installation and service should be done only by trained personnel. Always turn off the main power when working on the de electrical installation. Keep animals away from the antenna during installation and service. Close all covers when ready with installation or service. See Appendix A for technical specifications before mounting. See Appendix B for corridor requirements. Mount the Panel reader unit firmly on a wall or at a (non metal) frame. Mounting requirements:

1. The Panel reader must not be mounted close to any iron. This will influence the performance of the antenna. 2. The Panel reader must not be mounted close to electrical equipment with background noise. This can disturb the antenna. 3. The Panel reader must be mounted on a wall close to a stable power supply. 4. The Panel reader must be mounted > 1.5 m. from electrical cables or power supply. 5. The Panel reader may not be exposed to direct sunlight. Example mounting positions Drill zone at least 4 cm from the sides Figure 3. Mounting positions on rear view VP1103 Panel reader Mount the Panel reader in 4 positions with screws, bolts, and plugs etc. suitable to support the Panel reader. Use a large washer behind the bolt/screw to give extra support. Use a screw or washer with a minimum head diameter of 18 mm. The size of the holes in the antenna must be corresponding with the size of the bolts or screws that are used. Dont damage the antenna when drilling holes for mounting the Panel reader. This could damage the electronics and affect the functioning of the Panel reader. Keep a minimum drill distance of 4 cm from the sides. Install cables and power supplies / transformers > 1.5 m. from the Panel reader if possible. VP1103-200PM-00GB-Panel reader Manual version 1.1 / Page 3 2.2. Connecting to a PC or a weight scale via RS232 2.2.1. Connecting RS232 via a Sub-D connector Connect a PC or a weight scale to the VP1103 Panel reader RS232 Sub-D connection from the connector. Use an extension cable (art. nr 7707037) of 4 meters to extend the cable if necessary. 1 3 OR Weight scale 2 4 Figure 4. VP1103 Panel reader RS232 connection 1. RS232 connection to PC 2.

Starting up operation The Panel reader is pre-tuned and ready for use. 3.1. Turn on the power For an RS232 connection: Put the adaptor into an electric socket. For CAN communication to a VPU: Turn on the Power supply VP2001. 3.2. Checking the VP1103 Panel reader 3.2.1. Checking the CAN connection to the VPU Check the status of the Panel reader that is connected to a VPU in the Velos VPU program web page Maintenance > V-packs Overview. 3.2.2. Checking the RS232 connection to a PC Check the operation of the VP1103 Panel reader that is connected to a PC with the Hyper Terminal program. Set the baud rate of the Hyper Terminal communication program to 9600. The other settings are default. The tags numbers that are identified by the Panel reader will be displayed in the screen according to the ISO protocol 11784/11785. VP1103-200PM-00GB-Panel reader Manual version 1.1 / Page 7 4. Maintenance, malfunction and disposal 4.1. Maintenance Check the operation of the Panel reader regularly. No regular maintenance is required. The Panel reader can be cleaned with water and sponge. Avoid (aggressive) cleaning liquids. 4.2. Malfunction If the Panel reader VP1103 is connected to a VPU, view the actual state of the Panel reader in the webpage Maintenance > V-packs Overview. A reduced antenna performance may be caused by a strong electrical background noise. Install cables and power supply / transformers > 1.5 m. from the Panel reader. 4.3. Disposal At discard dispose of materials from the Panel reader in accordance with the current environmental rules of the state or local governing authorities.

Make sure the corridor is not too wide at the Panel reader location. The maximum width of the corridor is essential to achieve a proper working system. Animals should never be able to pass each other, turn around or walk in the wrong direction. Maximum width 1 animal wide IN g n o l l i a m n a 1 h g n e t l m u m n M i i Maximum corridor entrance width:

Allow passage of 1 animal at the time. Keep the corridor as narrow as possible. RFID Eartags : Attach all ear tags on same side of animals (left in this example). The antenna must be mounted at the side where the tag is attached. The identification distance of the antenna field The identification distance of the antenna varies per installation. It depends on the iron and the background noise in the ISO-

reader area. VP1103-200PM-00GB-Panel reader Manual version 1.1 / Page 10
