Installation Manual

Single or Double Reader Architecture
The connection shown below can be done with 1 or 2 readers connected on RS-485 to the same interface unit. Each reader is pre-programmed with a unique RS-485 address. The interface automatically assigns the right value to the parameter Address. The default value of this parameter is 000. During the installation, the first time a UHF card is read, the system changes the default value assigning the address of the activated antenna.

Example 2: Double Reader Configuration
In a double reader installation, the system assigns Address 1 to the parameter as the address of the first reader activated (250) and likewise assigns Address 2 to the parameter as the address of the second reader activated, assigning the value 251.

Example 3: Double Reader and Double Interface

Configuration
In case of more interfaces connected to an Access Control Panel, it is necessary to assign each a different address, which will be sent on the bus wiegand (see par.25). This is done by setting the parameter Code on the menu Settings to each device. The factory wiegand address is 1.

Introduction UHF READER

General description
The DOLCWIUHF-ER-902 is a high-performance UHF RFID integrated reader. It supports fast tag read/write operation with high identification rate. It can be widely applied in many RFID application systems such as logistics, access control, anti-counterfeit and industrial production process control systems.

Working principle
This reader generates a continuous RF signal in the band from 902 – 928 MHz.

• When a passive tag (card, sticker or car plate type), carried by a user or fixed on a vehicle enters into the RF field, generated by the reader, a small perturbation occurs: the tag then replies with an encrypted signal, that includes its s/n and more information. These are then detected by the reader which transmits the signal to the decrypting I/F device, that makes them available in Wiegand format or activates a relay.
• The Wiegand signal can be read by an Access Control System that that gives the final authorization to the user final authorization to the user.
• The reader comes with the corresponding I/F device which has a built-in RF receiver, operating at 433.92 MHz, with a memory for 100 Erone Keeloq type remote controls.
• The remote control can be used as an alternative means of identification from longer range, with the high security level provided by our Keeloq  hopping code.

Side installation

Overhead Installation

Getting started

When the antenna installation is complete, it is necessary to determine whether the interface device must activate the relays or simply sends, in Wiegand, the serial numbers of the tags.

• Relay output : The serial numbers of the tags must be stored (see “Add Card”). the memory can hold up to 7560 cards
• Wiegand output : if the interface device is connected to an access control panel through the Wiegand bus, pairing the cards is not necessary and therefore there is no memory limit. However, if the SELECTIVE OPERATION MODE is set, the memorization of a single tag will affect the Wiegand communication, so only tags where the s/n has been memorized will be allowed to pass.
  Furthermore, if the installation requires the use of Erone Keeloq remote controls, which will be decoded by the built-in receiver, the remote controls must be memorized. The memory contains 100 transmitters.

Programming / Navigation menu

• Select the operating output mode of the RF receiver as WIEGAND or RELAY
• Add the tag s/n to the memory ( individually or by blocks )
• Delete the tags ( single, by blocks, by list, all tags
• Add remote controls to the memory
• Delete remote controls from the memory (can be done individually, only one button, by blocks, by list, or all Tx )
• Set the interval time or dead time ( see proper chapter)
• Configure the operating mode of the relays and the settings of the Wiegand signal
• Makes a backup of the memory to an external memory device or restores the database from an external memory device
• Gives information about types of outputs, No. of Tx or Tags, and current firmware version
• Password

Add Tag [ Single ]

The memorization of even a single tag, enables the SELECTIVE OPERATING MODE. This mode means that from that time on, the interface device filters and sends on Wiegand only the serial numbers of stored tags, and the memory is limited to 7560 tags.
To operate without any filter, with unlimited memory, it is necessary to delete all memorized tags from the memory.
For adding a tag ( card, plate, sticker ) enter the option “Add Tag” of the main menu and “Add Tag again”.

Add Tag [ Block ] For adding a block of tags ( card, plate, sticker ) enter the option “Add Tag” of the main menu and “Add Tag Block”.

Delete Tag [ Single ] For deleting a tag ( card, car-plate, sticker ) enter the option “Add Tag” of the main menu and “Delete Tag”.

Delete Tag [ Multiple ] For deleting many tags you can do it by block, selecting them from a list, or delete the full memory.

Add Tx
ATTENTION : The memorization of a single Transmitter (Tx), enables the SELECTIVE OPERATING MODE.
This mode means that from the time that first Tx is memorized, the interface device filters and sends on Wiegand only the serial numbers of memorized Tx (Limit of 100 TX )
Add RF transmitters to the memory ( up to 100 )

Del Tx
Delete RF transmitters from the memory ( single or multiple

Single or Double Reader Architecture
The connection shown below can be done with 1 or 2 readers connected on RS-485 to the same interface unit. Each reader is pre-programmed with a unique RS-485 address. The interface automatically assigns the right value to the parameter “Address” The default value of this parameter is 000. During the installation, the first time a UHF card is read, the system changes the default value assigning the address of the activated antenna.

Example 3 : Double reader and double interface configuration
In case of more interfaces connected to an Access Control Panel, it is necessary to assign each a different address , which will be sent on the bus wiegand ( see par.25). This is done by setting the parameter “Code” on the menu Settings to each device. The factory wiegand address is 1.

Despite having a different wiegand address, it is advisable to use different input ports on the access control to avoid overlaps caused by simultaneous activations.

Settings

• Sets the interval time between 2 next trains of bits carrying the S/N of the tag detected by the reader, as long as the tag stands in the field generated by the UHF reader.
• Values available : [0, 5, 10, 20, 30 Sec.]
• Set the “deadtime” that is the time in which a tag, once carried out, must remain outside the detection field to be detected again.
• Available values [0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 , 9 Sec.]
• Set the address of the reader [1 – 254] on RS-485. See the sticker on the reader or make the reading of a card
• Set the address of the interface [1 – 9] on bus Wiegand ( see par. 25)
• Set the transmitting power of the reader. Power settings control the detection range of the UHF reader. See table at left of this page. (Detection range may be affected by obstacles in the detection area)
• Enable/disable the buzzer of the reader while detecting the tag

NOTE : the manual assignment of the parameters for Address1 and Address2 is necessary in case of replacement of the antenna as the automatic assignment takes place only if the parameter is 000, factory setting.

Settings ( continue)

• Set the address of the reader 1 [1 – 254] on RS-485. See the sticker on the reader or make the reading of a card
• Set the address of the interface [1 – 9] on bus Wiegand ( see par. 25)
• Set the transmitting power of the reader 2. Power settings control the detection range of the UHF reader. See table at left on page 10. (Detection range may be affected by obstacles in the detection area)
• Enable/disable the buzzer of the reader 2 while detecting the tag
• Set the communication baud-rate of the bus RS485
• Enable/disable the buzzer of the Receiver
• Sets the receiver to the factory defaults.

Config

If the output is “Wiegand”, set the Wiegand protocol ( 26, 30 or 44 bit ) and a filter on the Tx buttons If the output is “Relay” set the operating mode of the 2 relays as Pulse, Step, Timed or

• Set a filter for the Wiegand signal : this means that a signal is generated only if the button of the transmitter being used has been properly set. Example : A – – D , means that the Wiegand signal will be generated only if buttons A or D are set and if buttons B or C are used no signal is generated
• Set the buttons that activate the 2 relays
• Set the release time of the relay after the first activation: use P1,P2 to increase the values, P3 to confirm and shift left, P4 to shift back

Backup

The Backup function allows saving the full internal data-base into an external memory device or the restoration of the data-base from an external memory device

1. Plug-in the memory into the connector as shown below
2.  Enter the backup menu and select the option desired.

ATTENTION : Restoring the database from an external memory device will overwrite all data in the internal memory at the time of the restoration.

Wiegand Output
The I/F – receiver converts in Wiegand format both the S/N of the tags UHF and the S/N of the radio transmitters Erone keeloq. The architecture of the Wiegand signal is different according to the number of bits set ( 26, 30 or 44 bit).

To obtain the PUK code, send an email to sales@transmittersolutions.com or call 866-975-0101.Once the PUK code is set, the password returns to the factory default value.

 Installation of UHF Card tags

Vehicles without metalized windshields allow the choice of one of the six positions shown on the figure below (A – F)to install the UHF tag.
Vehicles with pre-configured metalized windshields should have a reserved area that is not metalized for RFID tags so choose position B.

For optimum performance

• Choose position A or F if the reader is located to the left of your vehicle.
• Choose position C or D if the reader is to the right of your vehicle.
• Choose position B or E if the antenna is in the overhead, above your vehicle

PLEASE NOTE : If your windshield is metalized, the read range of the reader will be affected. Please test the read range before installing the UHF tag.

Parking garage application

Hand-held cards

The best position of the reader can be searched, in the first step holding the card by hand.
PLEASE NOTE : The card is very sensitive and card detection can change greatly depending on how the card is presented to the reader. Refer to the images Below to understand the best way to hold the card.

Hold the card with your arm outstretched and away from your body. If the card is held near to your body, the detection will be significantly decreased. A card in a wallet or a pocket may not be detected.

Installation of UHF stickers AT49.TS / AT49P.TS
The sticker position placement should be similar to the placement of the card tag, as described in Section 27 above. It is best to apply to the surface of a vehicle’s windshield or headlights.

IMPORTANT : UHF stickers are thin and fragile. Once applied, they cannot be removed and reused, so please test the performance and detection of the tag in different locations to see what works best before installation.

Installation of the License plate Tag PT49.TS
Apply only to a vehicle’s license plate. Use screws to fix the tag on the bottom edge of the license plate. Please test to ensure performance before installing.
