GV-RU9003 UHF RFID Reader

Introduction

GV-RU9003 is a Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) reader of ISO18000-6C (EPC GEN2)

standard. Designed for parking lot management, the reader can read RFID tag within 10 m

(32.8 ft).

Features

 Built-in antenna and RF module

 Effective identification with specially designed antenna pattern

 Compatible with access controller using Wiegand 64 interface

 Ideal sensing range within 10 m (32.8 ft)

 Special energy-saving design reducing power consumption

 Support for external sensors and controllers

 Electronic tag compliant with EPC Gen II (ISO18000-6C) standard

 R&D patent for EMI reduction

 NCC/FCC/CE certification

Notice

1. The product pattern is certified by the FCC. Unauthorized modification of the frequency,

power, or originally designed functions and characteristics of the RFID reader are

prohibited.

2. This product has a water-resistant design. Unauthorized removal of the screws and case

of the product will damage the water-resistant performance and void product warranty.

3. Cables are water-resistant. Do not damage the shield, as it will also damage water-

resistant performance.

4. The reader should be positioned so that personnel in the area for prolonged periods may

safely remain at least 20 cm (8 in) in an uncontrolled environment from the reader’s

surface.

5. Avoid the interference of other radio frequencies with the look-up table frequency-

hopping spread spectrum (FHSS).

1. Wiegand Communication Interface

1.1. Connect with access controller using Wiegand interface (one-way operation).

1.2. Support by Wiegand 64 interface.

2. DI (external control signal input)

2.1. Signal level defining: High level (H) : 3.3V / Low level (L) : 0V (GND signal)

2.2. When the external control signal input is at high level and the GV-RU9003 is in the

standby mode, the GV-RU9003 will not output any identification code to the back-

end access controller.

2.3. When the external control signal input is at low level and the GV-RU9003 is in the

working mode, the GV-RU9003 will output the identification code on the tag to the

back-end access controller.

2.4. If DI is not in use, connect it with the blue or blue-white wire.

Recommended Installation of GV-RU9003 RFID Reader

1. Secure the GV-RU9003 RFID reader on a column, pedestal, wall, or beam at a height

between 1.8 - 2.2 m (5.9 – 7.2 ft) above the ground. Be sure to leave some space to

adjust the reader’s angle to the upper, lower, left, or right position.

2. Check the antenna pattern as listed below and make sure that the tags on the passing

vehicles will be on the opposite side of the reader.

3. Although the ideal sensing range of GV-RU9003 is within 10 m (32.8 ft), the actual

sensing range varies due to weather (raining, fog, sunny) and installation method

(horizontal, inclining).

Connection of GV-RU9003 RFID Reader

1. Connect the GV-RU9003 to a Wiegand signal source based on the communication

interface of the access controller.

2. DI (brown-white) is the input signal (e.g. ground induction loop or photo interrupter)

controlling the operating mode of the GV-RU9003 with external control. If external

control is not in use, please connect it with the blue or blue/white wire.

Installing GV-RU9003

You can install the reader on a pole or a pillar. Two types of pole mounts are recommended,

as indicated below.

Note: Make sure the diameter of the pole is within 53 mm (0.17 ft).

1. Secure the L-bracket with four screws (supplied) on the rear side of the UHF RFID

Reader.
