The connection of the cables (power supply and data transfer) is done inside of the connection
cab (SAB Cab). Together with an sealing element a protection classification of IP 65 is guaranteed.
By means of the integrated antenna the reader generates an alternating magnetic field, which
powers the transponder. Coded signals sent back from the transponder are received and decoded by the reader
The reader is fully controlled by an Master with RS 232 data port, while using the integrated
serial RS 232 Interface of the reader.
The side of the housing showing the antenna symbol must not be brought next to a metal surface. This could lead to a significant change of the properties of the antenna circuit, which in
turn reduces the reading range considerably.
Environmental electromagnetic noise may also reduce the specified reading performance.
Special hints to overcome these problems are documented in Chapter 8.
3 Start-up Procedure
The start-up procedure of the reader system is split up to following steps:
• mounting of the reader and pin connection (cabling), see Chapter 4
• operational instructions, see Chapter 7
To get a feeling how the IdentSystem will work, first start the reader controlled by the serial interface (RS 232) of an isolated PC.
The next step is to integrate the reader to the operating network.
To get the specified reading performance it is necessary to do the installation carefully step by
step as it is described in the following Chapters. All the work must be done by well educated
people.
4.1 Mounting of the Housing
The reader can be mounted to any other mechanic construction. It is recommended to protect
the housing against heavy mechanical interactions.
Attention!
The side of the housing showing the antenna symbol must not be brought next to a metal
surface. This could lead to a significant change of the properties of the antenna circuit,
which in turn reduces the reading range considerably.
With the help of the plastic bars, the reader can mounted or screwed on to the most fastening
elements without open the housing of the device.
4.2 Grounding of the Reader
To get reliable reading results, the reader must be grounded. The connector is place at the side
of the housing (6.35 mm flat contact).
To avoid EMV-problems, the cable to ground ought to be very short with low impedance.
Attention! The topology of the ground wires must be done in the right way (according state of
art).
4.3 Assemblage of the Line Connectors
The connection of the power supply and data transfer cables are done by using the connectors
of the SAB Cab. The Assemblage inside of the SAB Cab is described in Chapter 4.3.1 to
Inside of the SAB Cap there are the pins of following connections:
• power supply
• data link to the serial interface RS232
The codes to order the SAB Cabs and preassembled cables are listed below:
ID 70212SAB-Cab incl. one PG9 cable pipe and 5 wire cable (standard cable)
ID 70213SAB-Cab incl. one PG9 cable pipe and 5 wire cable / Sub D 9 Connector
(Service Cable)
ID 70221SAB-Cab incl. one PG9 cable pipe
ID 70215SAB-Cab incl. two PG9 cable pipes
ID 70219SAB Cab without any cable pipe. The cabling is done by the customer himself.
4.3.1 Allowed Diameter of the Used Cables
The allowed diameters of the cables used for data link and power supply must be in the range
from ∅3,5 to ∅8mm. For this case, IP 65 is reached.
4.3.2 Assembling of the Cable Pipe
If no preassembled SAB Cab are used (Best-Nr. ID 70214), the assembling must be done in
following way:
• Breakthrough the prepared areas at the surface of the SAB Cabs. There are two prepared
areas seen at the SAB Cab: central and at one side of the cab.
• The sealing must be done in the correct way O-Ring (3) at the cable pipe (4) (see also
Figure 4-1.

• Bring the nut (2) of the cable pipe inside of the SAB Cab (1).
• To fasten the nut please use the right tool (17mm)..
4.3.4 Assembling of the Power Supply and Data Cable (Single Cable Pipe)
The connection of the cable is also done inside of the SAB Cab. Instead of an 2-wire power
supply cable there is now an 5-wire data cable needed. The diameter of the inner wires must
be big enough to keep the voltage drop in the specified range.
The steps to mount the cable is decried in Chapter 4.3.3.
