Page 6 / 33- Revision 01
ARE I2 / RS 232 – Installation Guide
The connection of the cables (power supply and data transfer) is done inside of the connection
cab (SAB Cab). Together with an sealing element a protection classification of IP 65 is guar-
anteed.
By means of the integrated antenna the reader generates an alternating magnetic field, which
powers the transponder. Coded signals sent back from the transponder are received and de-
coded by the reader
The reader is fully controlled by an Master with RS 232 data port, while using the integrated
serial RS 232 Interface of the reader.
The side of the housing showing the antenna symbol must not be brought next to a metal sur-
face. This could lead to a significant change of the properties of the antenna circuit, which in
turn reduces the reading range considerably.
Environmental electromagnetic noise may also reduce the specified reading performance.
Special hints to overcome these problems are documented in Chapter 8.

Start-up Procedure
The start-up procedure of the reader system is split up to following steps:
• mounting of the reader and pin connection (cabling), see Chapter 4
• operational instructions, see Chapter 7
To get a feeling how the IdentSystem will work, first start the reader controlled by the se-
rial interface (RS 232) of an isolated PC.
The next step is to integrate the reader to the operating network.

Installation
To get the specified reading performance it is necessary to do the installation carefully step by
step as it is described in the following Chapters. All the work must be done by well educated
people.
4.1 Mounting of the Housing
The reader can be mounted to any other mechanic construction. It is recommended to protect
the housing against heavy mechanical interactions.
Attention!
The side of the housing showing the antenna symbol must not be brought next to a metal
surface. This could lead to a significant change of the properties of the antenna circuit,
which in turn reduces the reading range considerably.
With the help of the plastic bars, the reader can mounted or screwed on to the most fastening
elements without open the housing of the device.
4.2 Grounding of the Reader
To get reliable reading results, the reader must be grounded. The connector is place at the side
of the housing (6.35 mm flat contact).
To avoid EMV-problems, the cable to ground ought to be very short with low impedance.
Attention! The topology of the ground wires must be done in the right way (according state of
art).
4.3 Assemblage of the Line Connectors
The connection of the power supply and data transfer cables are done by using the connectors
of the SAB Cab. The Assemblage inside of the SAB Cab is described in Chapter 4.3.1 to
4.3.7.

Settings of the Reader / Most Important Parameters
The default value of the operating mode parameter is 2..
• MD 2
• MD 0
triggered by an software command – default value
continuos mode
6.1 General
The command set described below defines the transfer of data on the serial interface.
The commands consist of a command code and optionally of a parameter value. Commands
are terminated by the control character <CR> (13h). The control character serves as com-
mand line terminator.
Command codes and parameters, that means all letters and numerical values, are princi-
pally transmitted as a sequence of ASCII characters (the value 255 (decimal) consequently
as 32H, 35H, 35H; the command RST as 52H, 53H, 54H).
The protocol format is as follows
command <SP> parameter <CR>
The space character <SP> separates commands from parameters and the <CR> character
acts as command line terminator.
For commands without parameter values (e.g. GT ) the <SP> character and parameter val-
ues are omitted. The command line is as short as this:
command <CR>.
Generally, every input terminated by <CR> is acknowledged by the reader. The following
response protocols are different:

Manual
Page 16 / 33- Revision 01
ARE I2 / RS 232 – Installation Guide
After entering a valid command together with a parameter value, the system answers by
sending the parameter value and <CR>. Example:
Command: MD <SP> 2 <CR>
Output:
2 <CR>
After entering an invalid parameter value, the system answers with the corresponding error
code
Parameter settings can be queried by sending the command without adding an parameter
value. Example:
Command: MD <CR>
Output:
1 <CR>
If a single <CR> is input, the reader answers with a single <CR>. Example:
Command: <CR>
Output:
<CR>
Please note: If echo mode is active, a single <CR> forces the reader to output <CR> <CR>
(echo plus output).
6.2 Error Codes
If a command is not entered correctly, the reader sends one of the following error codes:
Wrong command: <NAK> #00 <CR>
Wrong parameter: <NAK> #02 <CR>
6.3 CID – Suppression of ID Codes
With CID=1 only the first of in succession identical transponder numbers is output on the
serial interface. The possibly following identical transponder numbers are suppressed, as
long as no new valid transponder number is received, processed and output. NoReads do
not influence the data filtering.

Caution:
The internal reference number is deleted in the following conditions:
• after a cold start
• after a warm start
• after entering the command line CID <SP> 1 <CR>
This causes that the next transponder code is output definitely.
The filter function CID picks up the results of the complete reading
cycles, while the parameter NID proceeds from the results of single
readings! The filter function CID has effect on the serial interface
only.

Operating Modes of the Reader
There are two operational modes defined:
• Mode 2
The reading process is triggered by an software command coming
from the serial interface.
• Mode 0
Continuos read.
If there is an read/write transponder used, the serial number of
the transponder is always read.
.
7.1 Mode 2 – Triggered by an Software Command
In operating mode 2, the exciter is always turned off. Triggered by the software command
(GT; RD ; WD), the exciter is activated. After successful reading or writing of a transponder
number the exciter is turned off automatically.

Figure 7.1.1- Software triggered reading operation
If the first reading cycle yields no result (NoRead), the on-time of the exciter is limited by
the parameter TOR (time out reader): Reading cycles are continuously started until either a
transponder is read successfully or the time span corresponding to the value of the pa-
rameter TOR has expired. The reader will not interrupt the last running readout cycle. If no
transponder number has been read, a NoRead is output.

7.1.2 Basic Data Exchange Process
The master has to send an software command to start an read or write process of the reader.
After doing all the necessary work at the readers site, the result of the reading or writing proc-
ess or an failure code is sent back to the master.
If there is used an read/write transponder, only the serial number of the transponder will be
read if the basic read command „Get Tag“ („GT <CR>“) is applied.
The data exchange of the whole memory can only be done, if the reader is set to the Mode 2 (
„selective Read (RD) “ and „write (WD)“).
7.1.3 ReadOnly-Transponder
• Start the reader with the command GT (plus <CR>)
• Wait for the answer( max. time to wait is given by the value of TOR Parameter)
• Analyse the received answer:10 characters plus <CR>

7.1.4.2 Selective Read RD
•
Start the reader with the command RD plus Parameters ( plus <CR>). see example
below.
- You can read out one block of the transponders memory, if the address of only one
. block is sent to the reader.
– You can read out several blocks, if the first and the last block to read is sent to the
reader. So it’s also possible to read out the whole memory of the transponder.
Wait for the answer
Analyse the received answer: 8 characters plus <CR>. Allowed characters 0 to F.
The NoRead Code is set to ( „XXXXXXXX“) ..
•
•
The result of the reading process may also be seen at the LED’s.
•
•

LED L3 lit, if there was a No Read.
Example
RD <SP> 20 <CR>

7.1.4.3 Writing Process WD
The memory of the transponder is organised in blocks, containing 32 bits. The data’s of every
single block must be changed separately.
•
Start the reader with the command WD plus Parameters ( plus <CR>). See also example
below.
The sent parameter consists of the block address and writing data’s (8 ASCII characters).
Note! There must be a blank between the block address and the writing data’s..

7.2 Operating Mode 0 - Continuous Reading
When operating continuously the exciter is switched on permanently. The reading cycles
are initiated periodically.
After an accomplished reading cycle the reading information is evaluated. After that data (ei-

Instructions
8.1 General Instructions
To avoid any reduction of the reading distance of the reader, the housing must not be brought
next to a metal surface. This could lead to a significant change of the properties of the antenna
circuit, which in turn reduces the reading range considerably!
To get reliable readings, the distance between reader and transponder must be within the speci-
fied reading volume.
The reading characteristic in front of the reader is not isotropic. It depends also strongly on the
orientation between Reader and Transponder. To get the maximum reading distance, the ori-
entation between reader and transponder must be well suited. The best orientation depends on
the type of antenna inside of the housing ( ferrite – type or plane coil type) and the applied
transponder (disc or glass transponder)
To get a reliable readings or writings, the time of transponder while crossing the sensitive area
of the antenna must be co-ordinated to the data transfer characteristics of transponder
In general the time depends on the speed of the transponder, the size of the transponder and
the way the transponder is mounted on the vehicle and must be verified by field tests.
Environmental electromagnetic noise may also reduce the read and write range considerably.
Arrangement to eliminate such troubles must be done specific to the application by the help of
engineers of the manufacturer.

8.2 Special Instructions for Using a Read / Write System
To transfer the data to the transponder or to control the selective read process, all standard
transponder types uses a 100%-pulse-gap-modulation technique.
The modulation of the magnetic field comming from the transponder and the write pattern do-
ne by the base station, shows a lot of similarities. Therefore, read write systems may interfere
each other.
The minimum distance between two antennas mounted next to each other and the size of the
interference must be determined for each application itself.
Below there are listed several parameters that will influence the size of the interaction:
•
•
•
•
size of the antennas
orientation of the antennas (f.e. parallel or rectangular to each other)
size of transponder; distance between transponder and antenna
the chronological orders for reading or writing.
