1. Introduction Dear Customer, We want to thank you for purchasing this Standalone Reader. With this unit you have acquired a product built to the latest state of engineering. Its operation is simple and easily understood. Nevertheless please read this Operation Manual carefully for optimum utilization of all of its features. 2. Intended Use The intended use of this Standalone Reader is the acquisition of transponder data by use of an Antenna Module.
. Device Description The RF-reader Leser 2plus with RS232 interface is a plug-in module, which builds together with the power module POW a reader unit. The connection to the power module POW is simply done with pin connectors (2,54mm grid), as both pcbs have congruent pinnings.

. Functional Description The RF reader Leser 2plus with serial RS232 interface is a reader, which can be used both as a stand-alone reader or as a reading head just sending the decoded transponder numbers to the PC. Up to 50 transponder numbers can be stored in an on board EEPROM. The reader switches an output, if the decoded transponder is stored in the memory of the reader. The “ON”-time of the output can be set from app. 0,5 sec to 15 sec in steps of 1 sec.
8. Operation Following operation is based on the assumption, that the reader is connected to the power module 2002 POW. This is especially referring to input 2, for which a push button is placed on the power module and for the open-collector output 3, to which a relay is connected on the power module. • Programming the Master Transponder When configuring the Reader at first the Master Transponder has to be programmed.
• Setting the Switching Time for the Relay ATTENTION: The output switching times are approximate values which can deviate from the nominal values depending on the status of the reader. The Reader allows the setting of the relay’s switching time. During this process no Transponder should be close to the Antenna.
9. Operation through serial interface with PC Software „LeserPlus Manager“: The software “LeserPlus Manager” is available for downlaod from the Codatex homepage under www.codatex.com. We recommend to use this software for configuring the reader as it offers comfortable data management and backup. • System requirements: o o o o o o Windows 2000, XP App. 5 MB free hard disk memory 16 MB RAM memory Processor min. 100 MHz Display resolution min.
Is there no transponder the reader will respond M 4. Setting the number of transponders to be programmed For programming transponders to the memory of the reader, there must be set the numbers of transponders to be programmed. The number to be set must include the master transponder.
9. Enable/Disable the serial transmission of transponder numbers The transponder numbers are sent on the serial interface by default with following format [data] [data] is showing a capital R followed by the 5 byte transponder number, e.g.
. Care, Maintenance and Disposal Besides providing the specified voltage and its intended use as a device for acquisition, storage and interpretation of Transponder Data the Standalone Reader does not require any special care or maintenance. An RF Reader that highly unexpected has become unusable must be disposed of observing all relevant legal regulations. 12.
