Not all of the options can be used on the same Orion Reader due to conflicts between the connectors.
Orion Reader System Guide Digital Input/Output Modules The digital input/output (I/O) assembly is used to interface the Orion Reader with external inputs and outputs. Inputs can be devices such as light curtains or loops, and outputs can be devices such as gates or lights. The digital I/O circuit board can accommodate up to four OPTO 22 G4-model input or output modules and screw terminal connectors for connecting the Orion Reader to external interfaces. These modules are optional.
Orion Reader Options • Assortment of 14-22 AWG wires to connect modules to mounting rack. Installation/Mounting/Grounding of the Reader Connect the stainless steel backplate used to mount the NEMA enclosure to earth ground using a ground cable and stake. Follow the National Electric Code for lightning protection for the locale where you are installing the Orion Reader. Figure D-2 shows an example of a site installation using a NEMA enclosure.

Table D-2 lists the acceptable OPTO 22 input modules and Table D-3 lists the acceptable OPTO 22 output modules to be used with the Orion Reader.
Orion Reader System Guide You can configure the I/O assembly with any combination of the four modules; for instance, four inputs, four outputs, three inputs and one output, three outputs and one input, and so on.
Orion Reader Options This GPS timing option permits a GPS-equipped Orion Reader in one plaza to be synchronized with another GPS-equipped Orion Reader in another plaza without being physically connected by a Sync data cable (Figure D-6). This configuration is useful when physical barriers or long distances prevent a Sync data cable between plazas to be used.
Orion Reader System Guide Star Systems recommends using the cable shielding and grounding scheme shown in Figure D-7 to reduce the risk of electromagnetic interference disrupting or damaging the Sync circuitry in the Orion Reader. GPS Power and Data Connector Figure D-7 shows the power and data connector and Table D-4 lists the connector pin assignments and descriptions.
Orion Reader Options The GPS antenna mounts outside the plaza structure (Figure D-8). The antenna connects to the GPS assembly with a coaxial cable. Figure D-8 Example of GPS Used to Connect Separate Parking Sites Before Installing the GPS Antenna Before installing the GPS for the toll plaza, you need to ensure that the antenna will be visible to GPS satellites. You should choose an antenna location that has clear, 360degree visibility to the sky.
Orion Reader System Guide Required Components/Tools Once you are sure that the antenna reception will be unobstructed, you can begin installing the antenna. Make sure you have the following -supplied items: • GPS timing accessory kit (GPS assembly, power/data cable, antenna, and mounting hardware, P/N 19100-02) You need the following additional equipment and tools to complete the installation: • Fifty-ohm antenna coaxial cable with attenuation loss of less than 12 dB @1.575 GHz.
Orion Reader Options Note: The GPS antenna installation must comply with applicable structural and building codes for the locale where it is being installed. 1. Select a location for the GPS antenna that provides maximum visibility to the sky. 2. Secure the antenna pole mounting hardware to the site structure. 3. Connect the antenna pole to the mounting hardware. 4.
Orion Reader System Guide . Figure D-9 GPS Antenna Assembly Caution To prevent damage to the SMA connector, Star Systems strongly recommends that you provide a strain-relief bracket or other means of securing the GPS antenna coaxial cable that terminates at the GPS timing assembly. Note: The antenna mount must be grounded in accordance with National Electrical Code regulations for the locale where the Orion Reader/GPS antenna system is being installed.
Orion Reader Options Note: As the GPS system activates, the Sync error LED lights on the Orion Reader. This error indication usually clears in about 1 minute, but it can take as long as 15 minutes. Using the TCP Command Set Configure and test the GPS timing option using the TCP command set by sending the appropriate TCP command (“Set Master/Slave Mode” on page 6-109).
