The COBAS-Reader 8000 is a customer specific adopted RFID reader based on TagStar's TS1415 reader technology. It is designed for the use in a Roche / Hitachi C701/702 system.

1.1 Supported RFID chips

Following ISO 15693-3 compatible chips are supported by the COBAS-Reader 8000 RFID reader.
Due to the project definition the COBAS reader supports the following RFID chip:
NXP I-Code SLI, the following documents are attached:
I-Code SLI SL2 ICS20, Smart Label IC, Short Form Specification, April 2002 (Appendix 1) I-Code SLI SL2 ICS20, Smart Label IC, Functional Specification, January 2003 (Appendix 2)

1.2 Functional description

The COBAS-Reader 8000 has a two channel detection system consisting of a RFID antenna and two optical sensors each. The optical sensors are used to detect the rotational orientation of a cassette placed below the reader unit. Therefore the cassettes are labelled with a black/white coloured RFID label. At the detection process the RFID reader reads the data of the transponder which is inserted into the RFID label. To control the cassette orientation both optical sensors measure the reflected light, which indicates the black and white label area. Depending on the reflection value the host system could decide if the cassette is inserted in the correct orientation or turned at 180°.

1.3 Model, Manufacturer

The COBAS-Reader 8000 can be ordered at etifix at the following order code:
COBAS-Reader 8000
The reader electronic unit consists of a two channel RFID reader main board, with two external detection units. These detection units carry an adopted RFID antenna and two optical sensors for the position detection of labelled cassettes. The electronic unit is assembled into a housing provided by etifix.
The whole production of the COBAS-Reader 8000 unit will be done under the responsibility of etifix and a subcontractor which are ISO 9001:2000 certified. The subcontractor is qualified and trained to meet the special requirements of RFID reader production. (Appendix 12, 13)

1.4 Labelling

Each COBAS-Reader 8000 is labelled with different identification and security labels. The following picture shows the position of each label:

Attention: Supply voltages higher than 5,5 V might permanently damage the circuitry of the COBAS-Reader 8000 and have to be avoided.
The COBAS-Reader 8000 has no internal fuses or any inrush current limitation. It is recommended to integrate an appropriate protection circuit into the power supply line to protect the reader and surrounding hardware against damage in case of failure or over voltage. A suppressor diode is integrated into the power supply circuitry. Specific data of the suppressor diode see appendix “1.5SMC6.8AT3-D” (Appendix 6).
The circuitry is operates with an internally stabilized voltage for optimum and stable operation.
Behaviour of the COBAS-Reader 8000 at different supply voltages see at Appendix 7.

5 Embargoed countries

According to the information given from Mr. Martin, Head of division for Electronics, Optics and Sensors (phone: 06196 / 908 – 788) at the Federal Office of Economics and Export Control in Germany are the COBAS-Reader 8000 not restricted in any countries if they are used for medical applications as they are designed for. The end user has to ensure that the COBAS-Reader 8000 are only used for their intent application in the COBAS 8000 systems.

6 Installation notes

No special ESD prevention is required to assemble the COBAS-Reader 8000. It is recommend to use a ESD wristband when you unpack the reader and connect it to the host system. The system power has to be switched off prior to the assembly.
Be aware of the following possible environmental effects when your are installing the COBAS-Reader 8000 into a device. Also the transponders might be effected by:
Nearby existing metal objects like housings, shielding and also PCB-boards with large ground
plates.
EMC effects from cables
EMC effects from magnetic fields.
Metal surface in direct vicinity of the active internal antenna will detune the antenna and thus have a direct influence to the operating distance. Increase the distance between the antenna and the metal layer to the possible maximum for least influence.
Communication between the reader and a transponder can never pass through a metal layer.
The optical sensors might be influenced (reduced) by condensed water on the housing of the LED / detector components. A transparent medium should be placed on the rotor jacket cover for preventing water condensing at the optical sensor area. The medium should be selected carefully and has to be transparent for red light emitted by the LEDs.
Contamination by deposition of reactants on the optical sensors will reduce the reflection values for the white and black label surface until no distinction can be made. Please take care that the sensors are periodically cleaned.
The COBAS-Reader 8000 housing is designed to protect the reader electronics against humidity and water condensation from the reagent rotor side. Please take care for a good sealing of the COBAS housing against the rotor cover to prevent moisture / condensed water getting into the housing through the cable outlet.

Based on several tests done at Roche Mannheim and Roche Penzberg the following procedure for cassette position detection is recommended. This algorithm is able to distinguish between different states.:

Depending on further evaluation the decision criteria for valid sensor signals and valid differences might have to be adopted.

7 Possible interactions between the COBAS-Reader 8000 and the host
system
Several different failure modes could have an impact on the functionality of the host system. The COBAS­Reader 8000 is designed according to best knowledge to avoid any negative interactions with an host system. All electrical interfaces to the host system are designed in conformance to existing standards. The following table lists possible failure modes and methods to prevent defects on the host system.
Failure mode / possible influence Protective measures
Short circuit on reader board at the power supply
Failure at the RS232 interface, like short or open wires
Data failure inside the COBAS machine due to EMC / EMV
Impact of the emitted RFID field to the measurements
Malfunction of the optical detection due to humidity condensation
Malfunction of the optical detection due to contamination by reactants
Malfunction of the optical detection due to HF field
Integration of an appropriate protection circuit into the power supply which limits the supply current to 350mA during operation
The COBAS-Reader 8000 uses an RS-232 interface driver which is according to industrial specifications
The reader will be qualified according to international standards as listed in chapter 2 to minimize the risk of potential influences.
This effect can't be estimated and depends strongly on the measurement methods used. Switch off the RFID antennae of the reader before starting the measurements
Condensed humidity reduces the responses values of the black and white label area. Therefore software could distinguish between both colours by measuring the relation/difference of both responses values.
Threshold values for contrast and absolute sensor values for black and white label areas have to be defined.
Periodical manual cleaning of the optical sensors by service personal or operators
Threshold values for contrast and absolute sensor values for black and white label areas have to be defined.
Due to the mechanical design of the detection channels a powered HF field has a direct influence to the response values. For save measurements it is strongly recommended to switch the appropriate HF channel off before the optical sensors are read out.
Interference of optical sensors The interferences between the optical sensors CH0/CH1 or CH2/CH3
are at an absolute minimum and have no impact to the measurement.
