EasyFuel Introduction Version 1.00 1 Introduction 1.1 Concept Easy Fuel combines Long-range and Proximity RF technologies offering a revolutionary solution to gasoline management. Long range RF communication between the station fueling controller and the vehicles, combined with a short range proximity RF communication between the vehicles and the fueling nozzles, enable quick and easy secured controlled refueling transactions.
EasyFuel Introduction Version 1.00 When the nozzle is removed from the vehicle's fuel inlet, RF communication between the vehicle tag and the nozzle tag is interrupted. This information is transmitted to the Site Controller that routes it to the station controller that disables the fuel flow to the specific nozzle.
EasyFuel System Block Diagram Version 1.00 System Block Diagram Station Office EasyFuel Link The SC is an RF transceiver that serves as access point to the Vehicles’ VIDs. Vehicle Vehicle Long-range Antenna Dispenser The VID is a microcontroller based in-vehicle device. It derives power from the vehicle battery. 915 MHz The NID is a selfcontained, battery operated, very low power RF transmitter that slips over the fuel nozzle spout and is hidden under the nozzle cover sleeve.
EasyFuel System Components Version 1.00 2 System Components 2.1 SC - Site Controller The SC serves as wireless access point to the vehicles VIDs. It receives information from the vehicles' VIDs in the station and relays this information to the station controller.
EasyFuel System Components Version 1.00 2.2 VID – Vehicle ID The VID is installed in the vehicle and stores relevant vehicle data The VID employs short and longer-range wireless communication systems: • • Proximity receiver reads nozzle ID during refueling. Longer-range communication transmits the VID and NID data through the SC to the station controller.
EasyFuel System Components Version 1.00 2.3 NID – Nozzle ID The NID is attached to the fuel nozzle and identifies the nozzle to the system. Its data is transmitted to the station controller through the VID and the SC.
