Extra Purchase
Reader hood, bargate, loop coil and speed bump are extra purchase. (IDTECK doesn’t offer these
contents)
Reading Angle of NEO RF245
The reading angle of RF245 is approximately 90 degree at the front side of the reader. However the reader has
about 10% of the maximum reading distance at the rear side of the reader.

Applications
F.1 Parking Control (Island) F.2 Multiple Gates with OTR & HOLD Control
1. NEO RF245 is applicable in a various way as it shows in F.1 and F.2. However, because of the
characteristic of a long range reader, we recommend to have enough space between each of them when
installing multiple RF245 (ex: F.1 : 3m, F.2 : 5m at least).
2. In case of not being able to keep enough distance between two or more readers due to the spatial
constraints, a user can set desire reading range by adjusting the angle. If it is difficult to have enough
space between the NEO RF245 due to the spatial constraints,
3. Using a reader hood will diminish the reading range; therefore, set a speed bump at the crossing gate
ramp to extend the reading range, if desired. A speed limit has to be restricted to 20 Km/h or below.

7. Cable Color
1. BARGATE output (a transistor output) that directly controls a car circuit breaker is used for circuit
breaker control relay operation. The maximum current drain rate is 1 Amps.
2. HOLD input is used to force NEO RF245 to read a tag when loop sensor detects any approaching
vehicle. When a vehicle is detected, NC contact should be used, and the input should also be
disconnected from GND completely. In OTR mode, the reader will only output tag ID (1 time).
CAUTION: Nothing should be connected to this input unless loop sensor is in use.
3. OTR cable (yellow) is used to limit the reading time to 1 (OTR = One time reading).
4. When BOOT_INPUT is connected to GND during firmware upgrade, the system changes into
applicable mode.
CAUTION: Nothing should be connected to this input during normal operation.

NEO RF245 Wire Connection
# Notice
- Connect both yellow (OTR, one time reading) and white (WIEGAND-1) cable to the ON/OFF switch (the switch
must be ON when setting up reading range).
- Turn ON the switch when setting up reading range. Make sure to turn it OFF after a desired range is setup.

10. Operation
- Normal Operation Mode
10-1 Apply power to the reader. When power is supplied, the RF245 reader will automatically set its
frequency and site code, and go into standby mode. The red LED will be turned on after successful
initialization.
10-2 If a tag (IDA245N & IDA245) or IDA245N-H2 & IDA245H2) approaches the reader, the reader will
generate a beeping sound in every second. The green and red LED will blink on and off alternatively.
The reader will send 26bit Wiegand output, RS232, and BARGATE output to the controller at the same
time.
10-3 Bargate output:
When the reader detects a tag, it will generate 1s BARGATE control output through the Gray wire. The
BARGATE output is a transistor (open collector) output, with the maximum current drain of 1 A.
10-4 One time reading(OTR) control Input:
Connect OTR (yellow) cable to GND to activate One-Time-Reading mode. During this state, the reader
will only generate output signal when a tag is detected for the first time.
If a user needs to scan the same tag again, the particular tag must be completely out of the reading
range for at least 5 seconds, and scanned to the reader again. (The maximum number of cards that the
reader can detect at the same time during OTR more is 12. From the 13th tag, it will be detected as
“Continuous.”)
10-5 HOLD Control Input: (NC contacts required)
When the HOLD Control Input (Blue wire) is grounded, it will prevent the reader from reading the tag.
This can be used for vehicle detectors such as Loop Coil Sensor.
Hold Input with OTR function will only detect on tag ID. Please refer to the following figure.

- Reading range setting method
☞ NEO RF245 is suitable for any installation environment that the users can freely set the reading range
at the desired distance.
10-6 Power off NEO RF245.
10-7 Connect yellow (OTR, one time reading) and white (Wiegand_D1) cables together.
(You can use a enclosed switch to connect two cables together, as shown below. The switch must be
turned on before setting up reading range. Make sure to turn off when finished).

User Manual
10-8 Power up NEO RF245.
10-9 Green and red LED will light up as shown below. The device will generate 10 beeping sounds for 10
seconds.
10-10 During those 10 seconds, scan a tag from a desired location. The tag should be scanned 10 straight
times. For the first 5 times of the scanning, a single sound (Bee) will be generated. From the 6th to 9th
times of scanning, double sound (Bee Beep) will be generated. At the last 10th time of scanning, triple
sound (Bee Bee Beep) will be generated. Now the distance of that 10th time of scanning will be
programmed as a new reading distance. When finished, the reading range setup will be finalized and
green LED will turn off.
15 December. 2016 Copyright IDTECK Co., Ltd.
User Manual
10-11 Power off the device, and disconnect yellow and white cables (If used switch, simply turn OFF the
switch).
10-12 Power on the device. You can now scan the tag from the distance that has been programmed.
Scenario
- Current reading range is 2 meters, and you want to maximize the reading range. How?
1) Follow the steps above (5-6 and 5-7).
2) Wait until green LED turns off (DO NOT scan any tag until it fully goes off).
3) Follow the steps (5-9 to 5-10). Recognition distance shall be set with the maximum reading
range.
※ Note:
1. Reading range can have a margin of error that depends on installation circumstances.
2. The default reading range of NEO RF245 is set to maximum.
(Reading Range is definable according to each site's properties.)
