Perf ormanc e Features
2.1 Performance Features
With its compact size, its weather-resistant housing, a read range of 8 to 10 m and the circular-polarized
antenna supporting any transponder orientation, the UHF Vehicle Access Control Reader ID MAX.U500i is
ideally suited to provide efficient and secure vehicle access control. Up to 9000 users and vehicles can be
stored in the internal storage of the ID MAX.U500i.
The vehicle access control reader can be easily installed on a VESA mount next to a barrier, gate or bollard
due to its mechanical construction. To install the compact reader one cable is required for each interface and
power supply; for PoE only the network cable is required.
2.2 myAXXESS Manager
With the help of the software myAXXESS Manager user data and access rights can be easily handled via
PC. After programming the access rights into the vehicle access control reader via a temporary USB or
network connection the reader is working offline as a standalone system.
The Windows software is suitable for network based vehicle and door access control systems and is based
on a SQL database. The myAXXESS Manager is available in the FEIG download area.
In small applications without any time restrictions for the access rights new transponders can be added to
the reader by the Teach-In Mode without above mentioned software (See chapter 6.2.1 Teach-In Mode on
page 24.).

5.7 USB Mini Interface on Connector X6
The reader is equipped with an integrated USB on-the-go interface. This can be used either to connect the
reader to a host system or, by means of a special on-the-go adapter cable, for connection of a USB memory
stick to the reader. In both cases, the connection is carried out via terminal X6. The pinout is standardized.
A standard shielded USB cable can be used to connect the reader to a host system. The data rate of the
reader is limited to 12 Mbit (USB full speed).
NOTE:
The length of the USB cable must not exceed 5 m (200 inch). It is not allowed to use longer cables.
5.7.1 USB Flash Drive Service Functions
Via an optionally available USB On-The-Go adapter cable, the interface can be converted to a USB host
interface. The adapter cable allows the connection of a USB memory stick to the reader. The USB memory
stick can be used to carry out various service functions, such as reading log and service data and uploading
a configuration file.
5.7.2 Reading of Log and Service Data
When connecting the USB flash drive during a running operation, the reader will create a subdirectory in the
root directory named after the device ID of the connected reader (see label on the back side of the reader)
and store device information such as firmware status and IP address in the INFO.LOG file within this
directory. If a corresponding file already exists for this reader the file will be updated with the new information
and the current date and time.
IDENTIFICATION
ID MAX.U500i
5 Terminals
Page 22 of 36
In addition, the files ACTION.LOG and SERVICE.LOG with further information for service and maintenance
for the devices will be generated and stored on the USB flash drive. The function of the CONFIG.INI is
described in the following chapter.
As vehicle access control reader the ID MAX.U500i stores the event table in the same subdirectory. This
table contains the last recorded access control events and is stored as file EVENT.LOG in CSV format. An
existing file will be overwritten.
After plugging in the USB flash drive the green and red status LEDs will light up permanently. After
successful completion of the USB actions the red LED will go out and the green LED will start flashing again.
The USB flash drive can be disconnected from the device after the red status LED goes out. In case of an
error, the red status LED will start flashing until the USB flash drive is removed.
NOTE:
• After plugging in the USB flash drive the status LEDs of the reader should be observed.
• The USB flash drive may only be disconnected from the reader if the USB actions have been
completed!
• The USB on-the-go adapter cable may only be used in conjunction with a USB flash drive. When
used for a PC connection the reader may be destroyed or work with strange behavior!
5.7.3 Storing the Reader Configuration on a USB Flash Drive
When connecting the USB flash drive during running operation, the reader will store the readable
configuration as an editable and readable CSV file (CONFIG.INI) on the USB flash drive. This file will be
stored in the root directory of the USB flash drive for easy copying of the configuration (See chapter 5.7.4
Copying the Configuration onto a Reader (Config-Cloning) on page 23.). In addition, the same file will be
stored in a subdirectory named after the according device ID (see label on the back side of the reader).
Thereby it is possible to save the configuration files of several readers e.g. from one system/installation to
the same USB flash drive.
All non-locked configuration pages (CFG pages) including the interface parameters of a device will be copied
onto the USB flash drive. Password protected configuration pages will not be copied.
As vehicle access control reader the ID MAX.U500i stores the access control data (list of access rights, time
zone list and holiday table) within the file ACCESS.INI in the root directory of the USB flash drive. An existing
file will be overwritten.
After plugging in the USB flash drive the green and red status LEDs will light up permanently. After
successful completion of the USB actions the red LED will go out and the green LED will start flashing again.
The USB flash drive can be disconnected after the red status LED goes out.
In case of an error the red status LED will start flashing until the USB flash drive is removed.
NOTE:
• If a configuration file CONFIG.IN already exists in the main directory of the USB memory stick,
the old file will be overwritten.
• Password-protected configuration pages (see CFG 0) are not written to the USB memory stick.
No error message appears.
• After connecting the USB memory stick to the reader, the reader LEDs should be observed.
• The USB memory sticks may only be disconnected from the reader after the USB actions have
been completed.

5.7.4 Copying the Configuration onto a Reader (Config-Cloning)
In order to copy the configurations and access control data stored in a USB flash drive to a reader, the
reader must be switched off before connecting the USB flash drive. After switching on the reader, the reader
will search for a USB flash drive during the boot process and copy the configuration and access control data
from the root directory to its memory.
It must be ensured that no configuration page (CFG page) is password protected in the reader. If
configuration pages are password protected, the configuration file will not be copied onto the reader. This
also applies if individual configuration parameters contain values out of the permissible range.
After successful completion of the USB actions the red status LED will go out and the green status LED will
start flashing again. After the red status LED went out the USB flash drive can be disconnected. In case of
an error the red status LED will start flashing until the USB flash drive is removed.
NOTE:
Connecting a USB flash drive during a running operation of the reader may overwrite an existing
configuration file stored on the USB memory stick (See chapter 5.7.4 Copying the Configuration onto
a Reader (Config-Cloning) on page 23.).

By means of the push button T1 the reader can be switched to Teach-In mode or a complete configuration
reset can be performed. The push button is located between the DIP switches and connector X1 on the
circuit board. Fig. X shows the position of the push button. To press the button T1 it is necessary to open the
housing by means of the hinge after loosening the screws.
6.2.1 Teach-In Mode
The Teach-In Mode can be used for easy programming of new authorized transponders if the configuration
software myAXXESS Manager is not or cannot be used. In Teach-In Mode it is not possible to configure time
restrictions for the different users. This means transponders registered via Teach-In Mode are valid and have
access 24/7.
Activation of the Teach-In Mode:
• Activate the Teach-In Mode by briefly pressing the push button T1 twice within a short time
IDENTIFICATION
ID MAX.U500i
6 Operating and Display Elements
Page 25 of 36
• As long as the Teach-In Mode is active, the yellow LED (V4) is switched on. Access will be granted
immediately to all transponders which are read and stored in the reader during this time.
• At first the new authorizations will be stored temporarily in the reader. If the Teach-In Mode is disabled
again by pressing the push button T1 briefly twice again, all new authorizations will be stored
permanently in the reader. These transponders will now have permanent access. Authorizations stored
permanently in the reader will still be available if the system was powered off, while temporarily stored
authorizations will be lost in the event of a power loss.
NOTE:
• In case of power down during activated Teach-In Mode all temporarily stored authorizations are
lost and have to be read again.
• In case of power down during deactivation of the Teach-In Mode (after pressing the push button
T1 twice within short time the second time) all authorizations stored in the reader may be lost.
A stable power supply must be ensured!
• The use of the Teach-In Mode is only recommended for small systems with a manageable
number of authorized transponders and users.
• It is possible to import access control data to the reader by connecting a USB flash drive.
• Please note that in some vehicles RFID transponders may already be installed by the
manufacturer or other system provider. These transponders could also be detected by the reader
in Teach-In Mode.
6.2.2 Configuration Reset
By means of the push button T1 a complete configuration reset can be performed. Push the button for at
least 5 s until the reset LED below the button is switched on continuously. After releasing the push button the
reader performs a restart.
During a complete configuration reset all parameters of the reader will be reset back to factory default and
need to be configured again. Access authorizations stored in the access control reader are not affected.
6.3 Buzzer
The buzzer is located above the digital inputs on terminal X5. It is used to notify the service personnel of
events during maintenance and service.
6.4 Reader Power Adjustment
In order to achieve high reading ranges, it is necessary to set the reader output power to the highest allowed
level. This depends on the reader type used (EU/FCC) and the applicable radio regulations at the installation
site. The output power is adjustable in 100 mW steps from 0.1 W to 1 W.
NOTE:
• Both in the EU version and in the FCC version of the reader the output power of the internal
antenna must not exceed 0.8 W.
• The admissible max. output power is 2 W e.r.p. for EU versions and 4 W e.i.r.p. for FCC versions.
The output power depends on the antenna gain. For calculating the reader output power the
Excel file “Calc-RF-Power.xls” is available from FEIG ELECTRONIC GmbH. If a circular polarized
antenna is used the antenna gain [dBic] can be reduced by 3 dB. If using a linear polarized
antenna the max. antenna gain [dBi] must be used.

Vehicle Type Recommended Mounting Height
cars only approx. 2.0 m
lorries and busses only approx. 2.5 m
cars, lorries & busses approx. 2.0 m
Table 12: Recommended mounting height depending on vehicle type
The antenna should be mounted at an angle of approx. 45° to the roadway.
If the vehicle access control reader is used to control a barrier, the antenna should be mounted at a sufficient
distance in front of the barrier. The distance depends on the permitted or desired speed of the vehicles. In
this way, it is possible for the individual vehicles to access the respective area smoothly and without delay.
In case an access from two different directions is possible, or in case of difficult environmental conditions at
the point of installation, a second additional antenna can be installed and connected to the reader.

8 Mounting of the Transponder
Mounting of the Tr ansponder
Passive UHF transponders operating at a frequency of 865–928 MHz are used for identification of vehicles
with the vehicle access control reader. To ensure a reliable identification of the transponder and to reduce
interfering environmental influences such as metal, it is recommended to mount the transponder label in the
middle of the windshield behind the interior mirror. The transponders optionally available from
FEIG ELECTRONIC GmbH are self-adhesive labels. To mount these transponders, simply remove the
protective foil on the back and attach the transponder to the windshield.
Before mounting the transponder the windshield should be thoroughly cleaned to ensure optimum adhesion
of the self-adhesive labels.
Vehicles with integrated windshield heating require special mounting of the transponder. In this case the
transponder should be mounted in an area of the windshield where no wires of the windshield heating run.
Usually corresponding information can be found in the manual of the vehicle. Otherwise, the information can
be obtained from the manufacturer.
Vehicles with tinted, vaporized or metallized windshields may occasionally experience problems identifying
the transponder. These vehicles usually also have an area in the windshield where no coating has been
applied to enable radio systems to communicate with the exterior. If possible the transponder should be
mounted at such an uncoated position. The position of the uncoated area can usually be found in the manual
of the vehicle or can be obtained from the manufacturer.
