1 Introduction The reader is designed to read trovantm transponders. It is a robust device for industrial applications. It is especially suited for large reading ranges. The adaption to the individual needs can be performed by selection of the most optimal antenna. The wide range of applications for this device includes for example: Production control in car assembly and paint shop, barrel logistics, bin identification, skilift management, etc.

3 Firmware The reader supports ASB (AEG ID standard set of instructions). When delivered the reader´s configuration is set into the operation mode 2 (readings triggered by serial interface). The reader can be set to the operation mode 0 (continuous operation) or to the operation mode 1 (triggered by external input). The parameters NRD and NID should only be changed after consulting the manufacturer.
4 Putting into operation 4.1 Putting into operation for the first time a) Connect the device to a 24 V DC source which is able to provide a minimum of 1 A. Connect the antenna with the device. Connect a Personal Computer or equivalent to the device via the RS 232 interface. Please assure the interface is set to the right baud rate. b) Establish a connection to the reader (parameter: 19200 baud, 8N1) by using an appropriate software (for example Windows terminal program).
5 Antennas The following antennas are suitable for this reader: a) high power plate antenna AAN FK6 (only choice for USA) b) high power plate antenna AAN FK2 / FK3 c) rod antenna AAN FK0 The reader with above antennas was tested against the requirements according ETS 300683 and EN 55022 class B. It is possible that antennas of other manufacturers may fit to the device. However, if connecting such non original manufacturer antennas to the device, the warranty will get lost.
