Chapter 3 Product Specifications 3.2 Description of the components Component Description Power LED If the correct voltage is applied to the device, the Power LED is green and the device is operational. Reset button Pressing this button initiates a power-reset of the device. The reset button must be pressed for at least three seconds until all the LEDs of the foil keypad simultaneously start and the hardware reset is executed.
Chapter 3 Product Specifications Component Description I/O ports 1 to 4 A digital input and output can be connected to each antenna port. A 3 wire sensor or dry contact is possible as the input. The output can operate a LED without a series resistor or directly switch 5 V DC (Imax = 100 mA). RS232 interface Communications with the device can be made via the serial interface (9 pin sub-D socket). Baudrates of 1,200 Bd up to 57,600 Bd are possible.

Chapter 4 Installation 4 Installation This chapter gives you an overview of the following topics: ■ Safety instructions ■ Qualified installation personnel ■ Unpacking ■ Assembly of the device ■ Antenna installation ■ Power supply ■ Terminal connection ■ External input and output (optional) ■ Commissioning Follow the instructions in the safety chapter Follow the general safety instructions in the chapter Safety Instructions. 4.
Chapter 4 Installation CAUTION Never expose the device to extreme temperature fluctuations, since otherwise condensation develops in the device and causes damage. Do not install the device in the vicinity of voltage lines or other power lines with which they could collide (for example, when drilling), which could result in serious injuries or even death.
Chapter 4 Installation ATTENTION When determining the installation site, keep in mind the length of the antenna wire and the read/write range of the antenna used. 4.2 CAUTION Qualified installation personnel Installation is to be carried out by specially trained personnel only. If you are uncertain about their qualification, contact the manufacturer. CAUTION Installing the device without special training can result in damage to the reader and/or connected devices. 4.
Chapter 4 Installation 4.4 ATTENTION Assembly of the device The mounting surface must be stable, non-flammable, dry and clean. If necessary, clean it before installing the device. The device must be installed so that air can freely circulate vertically through the heat sink, and the operating and environmental conditions specified under Technical data are met at all times.
Chapter 4 Installation 4.5 ATTENTION Antenna installation Consider the required read and write ranges when installing the antenna. The reader can only be used properly if the transponder is located within the individual reading/writing range of the respective antenna. If the transponder is very close to the antenna, the transponder may be detuned by the metal of the antenna and a reading/writing is not possible. We recommend keeping a minimum distance between transponder and antenna of about 10 mm. 4.
Chapter 4 Installation 4.7 Terminal connection The serial interface is a Sub-D socket (9-pin). A normal RS232 extension cable can be used.
Chapter 4 Installation 4.8 External input and output (optional) The following I/O versions are possible: A digital input and output can be connected to each antenna port. A 3 wire sensor or dry contact is possible as the input. The output can operate a LED without a series resistor or directly switch 5 V DC. 4.9 Commissioning 4.9.1 Required operating conditions To operate the reader, the following requirements must be met: An antenna must be connected correctly to the reader.
Chapter 4 Installation 4.9.3 Parameters of the Ethernet interface The Ethernet is connected via an Ethernet module. Tools are available that allow the Ethernet settings to be configured. By using Discovery Tools, all Ethernet devices located in the network can be found. The respective device can be configured via a web server and a web browser via a double click. If the TCP / IP address is known, the web server can also be directly opened in a browser also follows: http://xxx.xxx.xxx.
Chapter 4 Installation Configuration IMPORTANT The "Factory Default Settings" must not be set under any circumstances as they are not the factory settings of Brooks. Any other settings of the Ethernet device (exept the IP address) must not be changed. Otherwise a fault-free communication cannot be guaranteed by Brooks.
