Getting Started 1-3 Introduction The DC600 portal system is a fully assembled turn-key solution that uses Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) for asset identification and tracking goods movement in manufacturing plants, cargo logistics, distribution centers, warehouses, and stores. The DC600 includes an integrated RFID reader and high-performance antennas for fast, accurate reading of RFID tags. All internal antenna-to-reader connections are included to reduce procurement time and installation effort.

Installation 2-3 Introduction This chapter describes how to install the DC600 and accessories. Before beginning the installation refer to the Facility Power Requirements on page 1-3 and confirm that the DC600 power requirements have been satisfied. The chapter is divided into 3 sections: • Installation Configurations Provides an overview of some of the DC600 installation configurations. • Mounting the DC600 Provides mounting instructions.
2-4 DC600 Portal Integrator Guide One Dual with Two Singles This configuration is appropriate for two dock doors positioned next to each other. Single Dual Single Figure 2-2. One Dual with Two Singles Configuration Multiple Duals with Two Singles This configuration is appropriate for multiple dock doors positioned next to each other. Single Dual Dual Figure 2-3.
Installation 2-5 Two Slim Singles This configuration is appropriate for internal doors with limited space. Figure 2-4.
2-6 DC600 Portal Integrator Guide Mounting the DC600 to the Floor The DC600 includes a base plate with six holes for bolting the DC600 to the floor (four holes for the Slim Single model). After selecting a location for the DC600, drill bolt holes into the floor that align with the holes in the base plate. Insert six (or four for the Slim Single model) 0.5 in. (1.27 cm) diameter ground fastening bolts through the base plate and into the bolt holes to secure the DC600 to the floor.
Installation 2-7 Installing Power and Ethernet Cables The DC600 electronics module contains input points for power and Ethernet cables. To power the DC600 and connect the Ethernet cable: 1. Remove the four screws that secure the cable entry module to the top of the DC600. Communications Cable Opening Power Cable Opening Cable Entry Module Figure 2-6. Cable Entry Module 2. Remove the cable entry module. 3.
2-8 DC600 Portal Integrator Guide Powering the XR400 If replacing the XR400 Reader within the DC600 for any reason, shut off power to the DC600 system before disconnecting power from the reader. Note Applying power to the XR400 reader before establishing proper grounding can cause a benign spark. Adhere to the following procedures to ensure proper grounding. To power the reader: 1. Insert the power supply's barrel connector into the XR400's power port. 2.
