Important: Proper labeling for end-products using Brady BDCi5100 RFID Assembly: 1) When incorporating BRADY BDCi5100 PCB into a host device and the FCC & IC identification numbers are not visible, the outside of host device must display a label referring to the enclosed certified BDCi5100 RFID Assembly.
BRADY Warranty Our products are sold with the understanding that the buyer will test them in actual use and determine for him or herself their adaptability to his/her intended uses. BRADY warrants to the buyer that its products are free from defects in material and workmanship, but limits its obligation under this warranty to replacement of the product shown to BRADY’s satisfaction to have been defective at the time BRADY sold it.
1. Introduction 1.1 Description The Brady BDCi5100 RFID Assembly consists of a qty 1 BDC IP (PCB), qty 2 Media Antennae (PCBs), qty 1 Ribbon Antenna (PCB), Coaxial cables connecting BDC IP to Media (qty 2) and Ribbon (qty1) loop antenna PCBs. The diagram below shows the Brady BDCi5100 RFID Assembly and its connection to a host such as a printer’s main control board.

1.2 Specification The Brady BDCi5100 RFID Assembly specification is provided in Table 1. Table 1. Specification of Brady BDCi5100 RFID Assembly BDCi5100 RFID PCB Radio Fundamental Frequency 13.56 MHz ISO Standard ISO 15693 Type of Modulation Amplitude Antenna Type PCB Loop Antenna 50 OHM Antenna Impedance 50 OHM Number of Channels Three Operation Range (M) 0.
2. Installation Figure 2. Photo of the Brady BDCi5100 RFID Assembly Application requirements for installing the BDCi5100 modular approval circuit board assembly into final product. 1. The power supply from the host device must have a voltage output of between 9 to 24 VC and must be capable of supplying 200 mA. 2. The wiring to the 10 pin header (J2) must conform to the published pin descriptions. 3.
These LEDs will dim when an RFID tag is being successfully decoded by BDCi5100 and the respective antenna. 5. The BDCi5100 circuit board assembly must be mounted in a metallic shield can which totally encloses the assembly.The board assembly must be mounted into the shield using metal stand-offs between the circuit board assembly and the metal shield can surface to establish a ground connection between the circuit board and the shield can. The use of plastic stand-offs is not acceptable. 6.
3.0 Operation The Brady BDCi5100 RFID PCB reads ISO15693 compliant tags and converts and transmits the data to the Host upon request from the Host. Firmware read out from the BDCi5100 RFID PCB is inhibited. Attempting to read out firmware will result in automatic erasure of flash program memory. RFID configuration uses hard coded constants. Settings are locked down and are not configurable.
