UHF RFID READER 1- Connect UHF antennas, Ethernet Connector, 5 decibel Wi-Fi antenna and other input/output devices, if any, to their associate connectors on the reader. It is highly recommended that you get done with all hardware connections before powering UHF RFID Reader up. Failure to do so, your device may be damaged due to voltage fluctuations. 4 1 e g a P 2- Plug in the DC adaptor to UHF RFID Readers power socket. It takes about 30 seconds for UHF RFID Reader to load completely. Meanwhile, all LEDs show a chasing effect, announcing that the device is booting. 3- When UHF RFID Reader loads completely, the Power LED changes to solid light and you will hear a double beep. 4- If the boot process fails due to any reasons, UHF RFID Reader makes 5 long beeps. 5- Restate UHF RFID Reader to its default factory settings. 6- After the device boots successfully, Power and Status (Network) LEDs illuminate. You will also hear a double beep. 7- If you hear 5 short beeps, there is definitely a hardware problem with the device or its connections. Check troubleshooting for more information. UHF RFID Reader is by default in Access Point mode with its SSID in this format:
RSWR-400_XXXXXX and no password is needed. UHF RFID Reader is by default in Access Point mode, you can connect to it via Wi-Fi or Ethernet connection. 2015 Radiant Sensors. All Rights Reserved.

Contact us for availability. Settings UHF RFID READER In this page, user can set UHF RFID Readers time and working mode, Figure 7. UHF RFID Reader works in two different modes; Reader and Anti-Theft. Each mode has its own capabilities and thus specific configuration settings. We will delineate the specific features of each mode in this sections. 7 1 e g a P Figure 7, UHF RFID Reader Settings Page Reader Mode In this mode, UHF RFID Reader works like a server and waits for clients to connect to it. For example suppose that you have an inventory management software in your store which is already working with barcode. You may want to elevate your current system to work with RFID. To achieve this goal, your current software should connect to UHF RFID Reader as a client. UHF RFID Reader acts as a pathway between inventory software and RFID tags. In Reader mode, user should select one of the following options;
LLRP Radiant Sensors API LLRP Reading In this mode UHF RFID Reader reads RFID tags and sends their EPC to a host as while as they are in-range. It means that EPC of a tag may be sent to the host over and over. The protocol used in this mode to exchange data between UHF RFID Reader and the host is LLRP. In LLRP Reading mode, UHF RFID Reader supports just one client at each time, excess clients are rejected automatically. If you select Save Bandwidth checkbox, UHF RFID Reader will filter duplicate tags; in the other word, UHF RFID Reader sends duplicate RFID tags each 5 seconds by default. This leads to a drastic cut down in network traffic which in turn results in much more effective use of bandwidth. 2015 Radiant Sensors. All Rights Reserved. This information is subject to change without notice. Contact us for availability. Radiant Sensors API Radiant Sensors API mode entirely looks like LLRP Reading mode in its functionality. The difference is just in its implementation. In this mode communication occurs according to Radian Sensors protocol. UHF RFID READER In Radiant Sensors API mode UHF RFID Reader supports up to 10 clients simultaneously, excess clients are rejected automatically. Anti-Theft Mode This mode, as the name implies, is used to prevent unauthorized removal of tagged items. UHF RFID Reader has three paradigms to approach the task. When selects Anti-Theft mode, user can see the following options, Figure 8;
8 1 e g a P Anti-Theft Anti-Theft with stray tag filtering Anti-Theft with port 3 & 4 stray tag filtering Anti-Theft In this mode UHF RFID Reader makes an alarm whenever reads a tag. UHF RFID Reader is commonly installed at the exit to warn leaving of any items. Depending on the required reading rate and scan range, any combinations of four UHF antennas may be used in this mode. Anti-Theft with Stray Tag Filtering When boots completely, UHF RFID Reader starts appending all in-range tags to an Ignore List for 60 seconds, this time interval is called Learning Time. After the 60th second, two situations may arise;
1- Some tags show up in the read range of UHF antennas and stay there for more than 5 seconds, in this situation the tag is added to the ignore list. 2- Some tags show up in the read range of UHF antennas and leave it before the 5th second, in this situation UHF RFID Reader gives rise to an alarm. Anti-Theft with Port 3 & 4 Stray Tag Filtering In this mode UHF antennas are divided into two groups; 1, 2 and 3, 4. After booting, antennas 3 and 4 start appending all in-range tags to the Ignore List for 60 seconds (Learning Time). After the Learning Time, two situation may come up;
1. Some tags may leave the reading range of antennas 3 & 4 and remain out-of-range for more than Ignore Time (Refer to Action section). These tags are removed from Ignore List. 2. Some tags may leave the reading range of antennas 3 & 4, remain out-of-range for more than Ignore Time (Refer to Action section) and show up in the reading range of antenna 1 & 2. These tags are known as theft ones and bring about an alarm. 2015 Radiant Sensors. All Rights Reserved. This information is subject to change without notice. Contact us for availability. UHF RFID READER Regardless of the selected mode, user has to set some parameters to put UHF RFID Reader in Anti-Theft mode. 9 1 e g a P Figure 8, Configuring UHF RFID Reader in Reader or Anti-Theft Mode UHF Reader Setting Table 6, UHF Reader Settings Field Region Power Antennas Description Channel frequency of the workspace region Power of UHF Antenna Select which UHF antennas is connected to UHF RFID Reader. The Region field must be filled in accordance with the country/region of operation to comply with local laws and regulations. The user is responsible to confirm operation with the correct RF settings and are solely responsible for any fines and other damages due to incorrect or non-compliant country/region settings on your Reader. UHF RFID Reader may be damaged if you dont connect antenna to a port and try to send data to that port!
Matching Condition As a preamble for this section, it is reminded that each code number on RFID tags is composed of 2 parts;
16 bits long PC and 96 bits long EPC, the abbreviation for Product Code and Electronic Product Code respectively, Figure 9. The code is represented in hex, and each group of digits act for something. For 2015 Radiant Sensors. All Rights Reserved. This information is subject to change without notice. Contact us for availability. example the first 8 bits is called Header, incorporating the length, type, structure, version and generation of the EPC. For more information about RFID tags refer to Related Documents section. UHF RFID READER 0 15 16 PC 111 EPC Figure 9, RFID Code Number It was mentioned earlier that the most prominent feature of Anti-Theft mode is that, in this mode the system can distinguish the sold items from unsold ones. To achieve this goal, the seller changes some bits of code number to a predefined pattern when they sell an item. At the exit, those bits are checked to match with the pattern. If not, the system alarms. A filter with three parameters is designed to check the leaving tags. 0 2 e g a P Filter Start Bit This parameter determines index of the bit that the filter will start from. Actually we specify the bit position, which the seller starts changing from, when the item is sold. For example if you set this bit to 0, it begins from the first bit of PC, and if you set it to 16, it starts from the first bit of EPC (The 16th bit of the code), Figure 9. Filter Length Specifies the number of bits that the filter will use for pattern matching (64 bits at most). In fact we set out how many bits change when the item is sold. Filter Pattern In this field we determine the pattern that the filter bits must be compared with. When you set the filter length to 4 for example, a 4 bit pattern must be given to UHF RFID Reader. Hence, four boxes appear on the page to be filled. You can fill each box by 0, 1 or x. Note that the pattern must be completely different with tags initial code number, unless unsold items are misrecognized as sold. Examples are better than thousands of words! We end this section with some examples to give a better understanding of Anti-theft mode. Example 1 Consider a filter with the following parameters:
Filter Start Bit Filter Length Filter Pattern 7 4 1001 2015 Radiant Sensors. All Rights Reserved. This information is subject to change without notice. Contact us for availability. When items are sold, bits 7-10 of their tag number is changed to 1001. At the exit, bits 7, 8, 9 and 10 are checked to be 1, 0, 0 and 1 respectively. Unless, system alarms!
UHF RFID READER In the Filter Pattern field, x means dont care; it is compatible with either 0 or 1. In example 1, if the filter pattern is 100x, both 1000 and 1001 pass through the filter, i.e. they are allowed to exit!
Example 2 Consider the following filter:
Filter Start Bit Filter Length Filter Pattern 0 1 x 1 2 e g a P The starting bit of the leaving tags is tested to be either 1 or 0. If we configure the system to beep whenever an item exits, we hear a beep as each tag is read. This example is an interesting application of using x in filter patterns, when we want to just make sure that the Reader is reading tags. Example 3 As a more comprehensive example, suppose that you have 3 tags with their code as Table 7:
Table 7, Sample RFID Tag IDs Tag 1 Tag 2 Tag 3 PC 3000 31fa 3256 EPC 8030a00829000000000950d2 8030a0082900000000092a42 8030a00829000000000947c2 These numbers are in HEX.

Contact us for availability. 2 2 e g a P There are usually some common digits between codes, the filter is better to be selected from the most common digits. There are 16 common digits between these tags which can be selected as filter bits. The maximum length of this filter can be 64 bits (16 hex numbers). UHF RFID READER For this example we can set these values:
Filter Start Bit Filter Length Filter Pattern 16 8 10011001 Bits 16-23 of the leaving tag is checked to comply with 10011001. If we change the parameters as:
Filter Start Bit Filter Length Filter Pattern 7 3 101 Bits 7, 8, 9 of the code number are checked to be equal to 101.

Answer: Restore your device to factory settings. Refer to Reset Button for more explanation. Question: The Reader is turned on but I cannot connect to it, what is the problem?
Answer: First of all, check to see if the Status (network) LED is illuminated. If so, it means that UHF RFID Reader is connected to your network or is on Access Point mode. You can ping your readers IP using windows command prompt from c:\windows\system32\cmd.exe and type this command: ping <device IP or device ID>. If the Reader replies, it means that it is in connection with your computer. Otherwise check your firewall or antivirus. If the status (network) LED is off, please restart the device to its factory setting. If UHF RFID Reader boots and makes double beep, search the Wi-Fi network with SSID name like RSWR-400_XXXXXX and connect to it. 2015 Radiant Sensors. All Rights Reserved.
