VP1007-B / Installation manual Version 01.000 / November 2020 / EN 4 Livestock Management 2 VP1007-B introduction The Nedap VP1007-B Transceiver is a reader and input/output controller that is used for feeding, weighing, milking, heat detection, sorting/routing, identication and so on. Connectors:

2 Antenna connections, 1 active at the time FDX sync / HDX sync HDX and other extra ID options are only available by license. If no license is purchased for the VP1007-

B, these options can be tested for a 24-hour period. 1 CAN channel with 2 connectors 5 Outputs (max 2A) 5 Inputs 1 RS485 / RS232 communication channel Features:

Identication of tags Activates and controls e.g. lights, motors, valves, relays Reads the input for e.g. sensors, switches Special serial interface (RS485 / RS232) for connecting sensors with serial interface All currently available Nedap Livestock antennas can be used. 2.1 Extended functionality The new generation V-packs (V-pack B types) are based on a new transmitter-receiver module with an improved way of animal identication based on Digital Signal Processing (DSP) technology. The V-pack B types offer the following new features:

Notch Filter (nF): This option suppresses the signals that are received from long wave transmitters near Berlin, Frankfurt and Budapest. Especially large antennas such as the Walk Through and Walk Past antennas are sensitive for this. Noise reduction antennas will not need this notch lter as they already suppress these long wave transmitter signals. These new options and the HDX mode must be activated with a license on the VPU (VP8001/VP8002). If the V-

pack is not connected to a VPU, a license for the V-pack must be purchased. Nedap: If no license is purchased for the VPU or the V-pack, the HDX and/or Notch Filter options can be tested for a 24-hour period. For more information see the menu overview of the V-pack in the Appendix. To check if the VP1007 is a B version, a "b" will appear on the display shortly after the VP1007-B is booted. If a system uses HDX tags, and a VP1007 has to be replaced with a VP1007-B, there are two options:

1. Order a special VP1007-B with HDX license pre-installed on the VP1007-B, or:

2. Order a normal VP1007-B FDX only and add a separate HDX license to the VPU for this VP1007-B. VP1007-B / Installation manual Version 01.000 / November 2020 / EN 5 Livestock Management 3 Installation Do not operate the product without rst reading this chapter and the safety section at the beginning of this manual. Warning Failure to follow safety precautions in this chapter could result in serious injury or death. 3.1 Requirements for installation 3.1.1 Electrical requirements Mains power Make sure the mains power supply for the system is easily accessible and not too far away from the barn in which the units are placed. The power sockets shall be installed near the equipment and must be easily accessible. Caution Nedap power supplies must be connected to a power socket with protective earth (PE). Always use a 3-pole connector with a PE contact. If there is no PE available, create a PE next to the power socket to be used for each power supply. The properties of a correct PE depend on local circumstances and legislation. Always comply with local rules and regulations when installing earth electrodes. Cabling Install the Velos CAN cable(s) inside a plastic (PVC) conduit. Do NOT install cables directly to metal ceiling, trusses, feed lines and power lines. Lightning protection It is important to follow closely the guidelines that are described in this section, in order to minimize risk of damage on Velos systems in case of lightning. Nedap does, however, not accept any responsibility for damage caused by high voltage (such as lightning), as described in the Warranty Policy. Protective Earth (PE) PE is meant for safety related issues such as electric shocks to humans or animals. PE will not protect devices

(sufciently) when they are struck by lightning. Normally PE is situated next to the main power source only. Grounding Grounding is a connection to the ground, but not Protective Earth, for example a metal roof that is connected to different earth electrodes in order to lead high peak currents (such as lightning) to the earth. Nedap can never be kept responsible for incorrect functioning of networks or any damage arising from the recommendations mentioned in this document. 3.1.2 Electromagnetic requirements Nedap Animal Identication uses radio waves in compliance with ISO 11784/11785 standard and local regulations. VP1007-B / Installation manual Version 01.000 / November 2020 / EN 6 Livestock Management Notwithstanding all due precaution by Nedap, Nedap Animal Identication may not function optimally due to devices that emit radio waves, such as (but not limited to) variable frequency drives, electronic ballasts of lighting systems, power supplies, electronic converters of solar panels/windmills and (long) wave radio stations, which may cause interference with Nedap Animal Identication. No claims, representations or warranties, whether expressed or implied, are made by Nedap as to the performance, reliability, durability and safety of Nedap Animal Identication used in conjunction with abovementioned or other devices. In order to achieve optimal performance of Nedap Animal Identication, the electrical installation on the farm needs to meet the conditions that are shown below. Maximum allowed environmental noise level: 10 dBA/m quasi peak, according to CISPR 16-1-1. Maximum allowed conducted noise: according to EN55032: 2015. 3.1.3 Tools requirements Screwdriver size 0.4 x 2.5 mm (0.016 x 0.098 in.) for the LAN connector of the V-pack. 3.2 Mount the VP1007-B Mount the VP1007-B in a dust and splash proof housing, preferably a Nedap V-box:

livestockmanagement-portal. 2. The SYNC connector is used for the synchronization of the ISO identication between more than one ISO transceiver, such as the VP1007-B:

The SYNC connection is mandatory when using the ISO mode of the VP1007-B When using FDX only it is not necessary to connect the synchronization cable. VP1007-B / Installation manual Version 01.000 / November 2020 / EN 9 Livestock Management Use a 2-conductor cable to connect the SYNC connectors of two or more VP1007-B transceivers together. The cable type is not critical, a twin lead or coaxial cable can be used. Also the connection is not sensitive for polarization (+ and - are interchangeable). 3. Preferably, use ferrules to connect the wires. These ferrules are not supplied. VP1007-B / Installation manual Version 01.000 / November 2020 / EN 10 Livestock Management 4 Configuration 4.1 Configure the VP1007-B Caution Before conguring the VP1007-B, the system must be fully mounted and all cabling must be installed and checked. Some settings of the VP1007-B must be set prior to use. 1. Power up and check the LED indicators (see Power up check). 2. Set the required address (see Address setting). Power up check 1. Power up the VPU. 2. Check if the VP1007-B has power after power up. The "Power", "Vi" and "Vo" LEDs must light up green. 3. Check if the LED "LAST" is green at the last V-pack on the CAN bus 4. When the LEDs are green, continue with address setting. Caution If the output LEDs are red (flashing), there is an output error. Go to It > dE in the display menu to reset all errors. The LED indicators are explained in VP1007-B reader LED indicators (page 25). Address setting The parameters and use of the VP1007-B are described in VP1007-B reader menu overview (page 26).

VP1007-B / Installation manual Version 01.000 / November 2020 / EN 12 Livestock Management 5 Commissioning Caution Before commissioning and handing over the system to the user, the installer must perform several checks and tests to verify that the system functions flawlessly. Encountered issues and problems must be solved rst. 5.1 Testing inputs and outputs The inputs and outputs of the VP1007-B can be tested with three tests:

1. Input/output test for Nedap feed motors. 2. Output test to check connected equipment like lights, valves or relays. 3. Input test to check connected equipment like switches and sensors. The tests are performed using the menu options described in VP1007-B reader menu overview (page 26) Feed motor test The feed motor test is a combination of an input and output test. 1. Go to It > o1 to test the feed motor on the connector I/O 1. When the test is nished, the test results are shown as a code on the display (blinking). Code on the display Description motor test results 00 01 02 03 06 08 09 10 12 13 Motor run ok Output already in use No motor current measured No input signal seen Motor current too high for too long Current still measured after test has stopped Output voltage is stopped due to motor safeguard function Output already in use Motor current too low while running Previous motor command nished, output still active a. When the test result is not OK (higher than 00): Fix the problem and go to It > dE to reset the error. 2. If applicable, repeat step 1 for option o2, o3, o4 or o5 to test feed motors on connector I/O 2, I/O 3, I/O 4 or I/O 5. Output test The output test is used to test connected equipment like light, valves or relay on the output connectors. 1. Go to It > L1 to test the connected equipment on output 1. The output is switched on. 2. Check if the green LED of the output is on. A red blinking LED indicates an output error. 3. Go to It > dE to reset the output errors. 4. Check if the connected equipment is activated. VP1007-B / Installation manual Version 01.000 / November 2020 / EN 13 Livestock Management If not, check the wiring. 5. Press the button on the display to stop the test. The output is switched off. 6. Repeat step 1 for parameter L2 to L5 to test equipment on output 2 to 5. Input test The input test is used to test connected equipment like switches and sensors on the input connectors. 1. Go to It > i1 to test the connected equipment on input (I) 1. The input is read. 2. Check if the green LED of the input is on or off. 3. Switch the connected equipment on and off and check the values in the display. The on and off setting must show a unique value (0 or 1). When the VP1007-B is part of a complete Nedap system, the meaning of the input values (open or closed) depends on the settings of the behavior component of the Nedap system. 4. Press the button on the display to stop the test. 5. Repeat step 1 for parameter i2 to i5 to test equipment on input (I) 2 to 5. 5.2 Antenna tuning After the rst time power up, the antenna tuning must be checked. 1. Check the TUNING LED and follow the instructions in the table (see also VP1007-B reader LED indicators

(page 25)):

Tuning LEDs Description Action Green Various Red On Antenna 1 tuned correctly. Blinking Antenna 1 identied tag. On Antenna 2 tuned correctly. Blinking Antenna 2 identied tag. Red on Red on Red on Red on Antenna 1 not tuned correctly (turn left). Antenna 1 not tuned correctly (turn right). Antenna 2 not tuned correctly (turn right). Antenna 2 not tuned correctly (turn left). Red blinking Antenna 1 not connected or low antenna signal. Red blinking Antenna 2 not connected or low antenna signal. 5.3 Antenna adjustment The Antenna Power (AP) and Antenna Squelch (AS) can be adjusted manually to optimize the detection of the animal tags. The Adjust Antenna (AA) option can be used to manually tune the antenna. The tests described in this section can be activated using the menu options described in VP1007-B reader menu overview (page 26). VP1007-B / Installation manual Version 01.000 / November 2020 / EN 14 Livestock Management Antenna power (AP) 1. Go to HF > H1 or H2 > AP in the menu to check the antenna power setting. The default antenna power level is 99 (maximum value). 2. If necessary, adjust the setting of the antenna power AP. Decreasing the antenna power level will reduce the reading distance of the antenna. Increasing the antenna power level will increase the reading distance of the antenna, but the reading distance is also dependent on conditions like external noise, tag quality and antenna conguration. Antenna squelch (AS) With Antenna squelch you can set a threshold for the ID level of an EID tag. There is a relation between ID strength (RSSI) of a tag and the squelch level, and both values range from 0 to 99. Tags read with an RSSI value lower than the squelch level will not be identied. RSSI: The Received Signal Strength Indication is an indication of the signal strength received by the receiver. The higher the RSSI value, the stronger the signal. Squelch: The traditional squelch circuit is an audio switch controlled by the radio signal level using a xed or manually adjustable threshold (level). When the received signal strength falls below this, the receiver is muted. When the VP1007-B reads the tag with an RSSI level below this threshold, the tag will not be read. Figure2:Antenna squelch (AS) diagram 1. Received tag numbers are not transferred. 2. Received tag numbers are transferred. A. Antenna Squelch (0 to 99%) AS. Antenna Squelch setting (between 0% and 99%) 1. Go to HF > H1 or H2 > AS in the menu to check the antenna squelch setting. The default antenna squelch value is 0% (most sensitive setting). At the lowest value there is no threshold and all received tag data will be identied. 2. If necessary, adjust the antenna squelch value AS to set the correct threshold. The maximum value is 99%. At this value no received tag data will be identied. Antenna tuning with option "AA"

With the option Adjust Antenna (AA), you can follow the antenna tuning on the display of the VP1007-B. The antenna can also be tuned using the TUNING LED on the display (see Tune the antenna). 1. Go to HF > H1 or H2 > AA in the menu to check the antenna tuning setting. A value will appear on the display. The highest display value is the optimum adjustment. 2. Turn the antenna trimmer slowly. The display value will change. 3. If the value decreases, turn the antenna trimmer the other way. VP1007-B / Installation manual Version 01.000 / November 2020 / EN 15 Livestock Management 4. Turn the antenna trimmer until the highest value is found. Antenna reading distance The antenna squelch and antenna power settings can be used to adjust the reading distance of the antenna for an optimal detection of the animal tags:

1. Check if the antenna is set up correctly:

a. Check that the antenna is tuned correctly: see Antenna tuning with option "AA". b. Check that the antenna power (AP) is set to the desired level (usually 99): see Antenna power (AP) (page 15). Increase the antenna squelch when the antenna eld interferes with other transmitting elds or metal frameworks in the barn. If this is not sufcient, reduce the antenna power. 2. Check the maximum reading distance of the antenna with an EID tag (e.g. 120 cm for a neck tag in a walk through antenna). a. Move the tag to and from the antenna and use one of the following options to determine the maximum distance for tag identication:

1. Check the TUNING/ID LED on the VP1007-B (see VP1007-B reader LED indicators (page 25)). 2. Go to HF > H1 or H2 > AS > id and check if the last two digits of the tag ID appear in the display. Figure3:Antenna reading distance adjustment 1. Maximum before adjustment (e.g. 120 cm) 2. Maximum after adjustment (e.g. 80 cm) 3. Put the tag in the antenna eld at the desired maximum reading distance (e.g. 80 cm) and read the RSSI value:

a. FDX: Go to HF > H1 or H2 > AS > dF and note down the value (e.g. 60). b. HDX: Go to HF > H1 or H2 > AS > dH and note down the value (e.g. 60). 4. Set the squelch value:

a. FDX: Go to HF > H1 or H2 > AS > SF and set the value noted in step 3a. b. HDX: Go to HF > H1 or H2 > AS > SH and set the value noted in step 3b. 5. Repeat step 2. The maximum reading distance of the antenna should now be found at the desired distance of step 3 (e.g. 80 cm). 5.4 Identification tests The tests are performed using the parameters described in VP1007-B reader menu overview (page 26). Tag identification When a tag is detected by the antenna of the VP1007-B, the green TUNING/ID LED will automatically blink. The identication (id) test can be used to identify the tag number. 1. When the green TUNING/ID LED blinks, go to It > id on the display. The last two digits of the tag number are shown. VP1007-B / Installation manual Version 01.000 / November 2020 / EN 16 Livestock Management FDX/HDX signal strength indication The signal strength received by the reader of the VP1007-B can be tested. The FDX (dF) and HDX (dH) signals are tested separately. 1. FDX test:

a. Go to HF > AS > dF on the display. b. Press the button until the display starts to blink. A value (0 - 99) will appear on the display. c. Move an FDX tag slowly into the antenna eld. The display value will normally increase when getting closer to the antenna. If there is already a high value when the tag is not in the antenna eld, this is an indication that an external source is causing noise (see Troubleshooting). 2. HDX test:

a. Go to HF > AS > dH on the display. b. Press the button until the display starts to blink. A value (0 - 99) will appear on the display. c. Move an HDX tag slowly into the antenna eld. The display value will normally increase when getting closer to the antenna. If there is already a high value when the tag is not in the antenna eld, this is an indication that an external source is causing noise (see Troubleshooting). For the VPU or V-pack with an ethernet connection, the RSSI values are shown on the Overview page of the web interface. VP1007-B / Installation manual Version 01.000 / November 2020 / EN 17 Livestock Management 6 Troubleshooting Errors and malfunctioning of the VP1007-B are indicated by the indicator LEDs or codes on the display. Indicator LED Indicator LEDs are normally green (except the blue Status LED) or switched off. A red or orange indicator LED usually means there is something not functioning correctly. See VP1007-B reader LED indicators (page 25) for the explanation of the various colors. Display code Codes on the display are normally controlled by the VPU. The error will be indicated in the Velos web interface. If the VP1007-B is part of a complete Nedap system, see the Troubleshooting section in the installation manual of this system.

Behavior component (BC) The behavior of a standard hardware component and / or the total management system, set by Velos software. CAN bus DHCP Ethernet FDX HDX LAN Controller Area Network. A standard serial bus to connect electronic controllers and to allow the controllers to communicate with each other. Dynamic Host Conguration Protocol Network communication standard for PCs in a LAN Full Duplex is a bidirectional data communication system, where at both ends data signals are sent and received at the same time. Half Duplex is a bidirectional data communication system, where data signals are sent and received in one direction at the time. Local Area Network Nedap product The device or software of which the installation or use is described in this manual. Router RSSI Squelch Networking device that forwards data packets between computer networks The Received Signal Strength Indication is an indication of the signal strength received by the receiver. The higher the RSSI value, the stronger the signal. The traditional squelch circuit is an audio switch controlled by the radio signal level using a xed or manually adjustable threshold (level). When the received signal strength falls below this, the receiver is muted. When the VP1007-B reads the tag with an RSSI level below this threshold, the tag will not be read.
