This product contains components that are sensitive to electrostatic discharges. Please observe the special
instructions for the ir protection. Incorrect handling can dam age the unit and cause the invalidation o f t he
warranty.
Minimum safety precautions against electrostatic discharge:
• Establish earth contact before you touch the unit. For example, touch the earthing screw on the unit.
Even better: Use an antistatic ribbon and earth yourself permanently for the time you handle the unit.
• Avoid unnecessary contact with the unit connectors and assemblies inside the unit.
• Only open the unit if the operational settings (as described in the manual) expressly require this.
• Use antistatic tools for the setting of the unit. (Warning: Do not touch life-threatening voltag es with
these tools).
• Do not store unit and components without protective packaging.
• Only remove unit and components from the packaging immediately prior to installation.
These notes are not sufficient to guarantee complete protection from electrostatic discharges!
We recommend the use of suitable protective equipment.

1. SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
The system described in this manual is for exclusive operation of trained employees. Only qualified personnel
that have knowledge of the potential dangers involved sh ou ld perfo rm th e insta llation, settings, maintenance
and repair of the units used.
Operational Safety
The correct and safe use of these systems assumes that operating and service personnel follow the safety
measures described in the manual alongside the generally acceptable safety procedures.
If there is a possibility that safe operations cannot be guaranteed, the system m us t be sw itche d o ff, secure d
against accidental use and the service unit responsible immediately informed.
Safety Documents
The i-Q350 tag was designed, tested and supplied in perfect condition according to document IEC348 Safety
Requirements for Electronic Units of Class 1.
Condensate / Change of Temperature
To avoid condensation in the system, the unit must be allowed to slowly adjust itself to warmer temperatures
after removal from cold and cool environments.
Do not open the housing
There is absolutely no need to open the systems housing during set up. Configuration is done with built in
interface wirelessly .
Earthing
Before establishing any connections the housing of the system must be earthed.
Battery Inside
All system tags contain a battery; therefore the following warning should be heeded:
WARNING - Fire, explosion and burn hazard risk of explosion if battery is replaced by a n
incorrect type. Do not recharge, short circuit, crush, disassemble, heat above
100 °C (212 °F)
Do not incinerate, or expose contents to water
Fuses
Only experts who are aware of the dangers involved may replace the fuses. It must be ensured that only
fuses of the required current rating and the correct type are use d for re place m en t. The use o f repaired fuses
and/or short-circuiting the fuse holders is prohibited.

Spare Parts
We recommend that only personnel, original products, spare and replacement parts authorized by IDENTEC
SOLUTIONS be used for installation, service and repair. IDENTEC SOLUTIONS does not accept any
responsibility for materials used, work carried out or possible consequences from una uth orized third party
vendors.
Electrostatic Discharge
Semi-conductors of the type MOS or CMOS as well as two-pin types and precision resistance are sensitive to
ESD. All components, printed circuit boards and auxiliary systems should therefore always be classed as
sensitive to electrostatic discharge.
Before opening the cover the unit should be placed onto an ESD-protected surface. As with all work on
modern electronic modules, the use of ESD clamps and ESD mats during work on the unit is recommended.
• Sufficiently protect all printed circuit boards that were removed from the unit from damage.
• Observe all normal precautions for the use of tools.
• Use ESD-protected packaging material.
Never use measuring units with low impedance for measuring or testing systems with semi-conductor
components. Never use high voltage testing units or dielectric test units to test systems with semi-conductor
components.
If it is necessary to check the isolating properties of the field wiring, the assemblies (electronic units and
sensors) should be disconnected.
Earth the test units.
IDENTEC SOLUTIONS does not accept th e retu rn of pro du cts w h ere the reg ulation s con ce rning the ES D
precautions and protective packaging materials were not followed.
ESD – Electrostatic Discharge
EMC – Electromagnetic Compatibility

2. INTRODUCTION
2.1. Fundamentals
The IDENTEC SOLUTIONS’ SensorSMART Platform is the latest development in asset management,
localization and pro cess optimization. Developed to deliver t he last mile in industria l communication, the
SensorSMART Platform fulfills a niche not previously addressed by available networks.
The SensorSMART Platform takes the complexity out of managing assets, personnel safety monitoring and/or
the tracking of valuable cargo and the need for multiple techn o logies. T he un ique combination of active RFID,
RTLS and WSN in one platform eliminates the necessity for complex deployments of multiple technologies, or
the need to compromise with one techno logy ’s spe cific function alities. The pinn acle o f the Sen so rSM A R T
Platform is that it captures the best of RFID, WSN, and RTLS while also avoiding the less desirable features of
each technology. Third party application development is also simplified for added flexibility.
