Fast Tagging Station User's Guide 3. Introduction The Fast Tagging Station is a device used to carry on library tagging operations in an accurate and fast way. 3.1 Main Features The Fast Tagging Station is placed on a desk. It consists of a roll dispenser and a TAGSYS RFID read/write device all in one. When used with TAGSYS RFID Tags, the Fast Tagging Station is able to dispense and program the tag automatically. The Fast Tagging Station can process all TAGSYS RFID Tags. 3.
Installation 4. Installation 3.1 Overview 3.1.1 Connections Figure 1: Connections area Main supply cable Serial connector CAUTION: Only RS232 shielded serial cable must be used Figure 2 : Power adaptor October 2007 Revision 2.
Fast Tagging Station User's Guide 1. Plug the main power connector of the Fast Tagging Station to the main power supply (this cable is not supplied as power supply cable depends on country standard) CAUTION: If 110V, then use the power adaptor supplied. Figure 2 2. Connect the serial connector of the Fast Tagging Station to any serial port of the host PC (use the serial cable provided) 3. Position the label roll as explained below: 3.1.
Installation Figure 4: Pieces of the Fast Tagging Station Fixing bar Ring stop Pin 4.2 Position RFID tag roll on Fast Tagging Station Before positioning the label roll, make sure the Fast Tagging Station is switched off. Figure 5: Fast Tagging Station Fixing bar White reel Cell October 2007 Pin Revision 2.
Fast Tagging Station User's Guide 1. Position the label roll on the bear axe Every TAGSYS RFID Tags type can be used in the Fast Tagging Station (except VHS and CDs form factors) Unwind 20 cm (8 in.) of the label roll and take off 3 to 4 labels to get a free-label strip Paper strip with no label 2. Pass the paper following arrows direction as shown Figure 5 Use adhesive tape to make a loop as shown Loop 16/27 Revision 2.
Installation Slide the pin into the loop Insert the pin into the white reel slot and the pin-curved part in the hole Slide the red ring on the axis to prevent the strip to shift away Hole Reel Slot Red ring to guide the paper strip Wind the paper band around the white reel to tighten it. Fix the bar on the bear axe to maintain the roll. October 2007 Revision 2.
Fast Tagging Station User's Guide 4.3 Cell configuration 4.3.1 Function It allows the main axis to rotate when the Fast Tagging Station is ON and it stops only when the optical cell detects a TAGSYS RFID tag to be peeled off. The cell must be positioned with accuracy to ensure the TAGSYS RFID tag that coming out from the roll to be detected. When the TAGSYS RFID tag is peeled off a new one is provide. The cell configuration is crucial for efficient use of the Fast Tagging Station.
Installation If not, adjust the position of the cell by unscrewing the black roller. Screw it back after. October 2007 Revision 2.
Fast Tagging Station User's Guide 5. Operations 5.1 What tagging consists of? Tagging consists of the following operations: Scanning the barcode or typing either Code or Title of the item and the retrieval of its associated data in the database. Programming the TAGSYS RFID Tag with data extracted from the database. Attaching the label to the item.
Fast Tagging Station Use 6. Fast Tagging Station Use 1. Power up the Fast Tagging Station • Make sure the cell is well positioned. • Connect the Fast Tagging Station to your PC 2. Each time a tag is provided, program it with the software 3. Peel off the tag. a - The label to peel appears as shown Label’s part unstuck b - Put your finger under the Label’s part unstuck as shown and pull it back October 2007 Revision 2.
Fast Tagging Station User's Guide 7. Fast Tagging Station Demo Software 5.1 Purpose of the Fast Tagging Station Demo software TAGSYS provides demonstration software to illustrate the tagging operation sequence. It writes into the tag all the permanent data defined in the ISO Library Mapping Software Guide. It shows the differences of memory mapping between the Folio20 and the Folio320 and the Folio370. Please refer to ISO Library Mapping Software Guide for more information.
Fast Tagging Station Demo Software 7.2.2 Converting operation This operation involves RFID manipulations. In order to carry on fast and efficient operation, all data to be programmed into the tag must be set in the database and available by entering the barcode, a code or the title. A communication with the reader is opened at the beginning of the process and closed at the end. As many tags as use can be processed as long as the communication is opened. • First, position the tag on the antenna.
Fast Tagging Station User's Guide 8. • Please refer to Return station Guide • Make sure the cell is well positioned. 24/27 Revision 2.
