Product Documentation
1 Overview
SYMEO Industrial Local Positioning Radar (LPR®) is a system for contactless, real-time
determination of distances between two devices by means of radio signals.
All components are integrated in one casing. The compact unit can therefore be mounted
very easily and operate maintenance-free, even under harsh conditions. Dust, fog, or similar
impacts do not influence the system.
The Local Positioning Radar System LPR®-1DXi consists of equal units, which are
configured with the software Symeo-Wizard (via Windows PC with USB connection):
Figure 1 – LPR®-1DXi unit
The LPR®-1DXi unit has different interfaces. The unit has IP65 protection class.
1.1 Safety Instructions
LPR® systems are purely tracking and assistance systems. They therefore
do not satisfy special requirements for personal safety, e.g. performance
level c.
Follow the safety instructions in this documentation!
Keep these safety instructions and other documents together with the device.

Overview
1.2 Installation
All installation, repair and servicing work must be carried out by qualified
and trained technicians!
1.3 Repairs
Repairs to the device must be carried out by authorized technicians.
Unauthorized opening and incorrect repairs could result in severe danger to
the user (danger of electric shock, radiated energy, fire hazard).
1.4 Transport and Storage
Use the original packaging or other suitable packaging for returns and
whenever the system is to be transported. This ensures protection from
crushing, impacts, moisture and electrostatic discharge.
During setup and before operation, refer to the instructions for
environmental conditions included in the operating instructions for the
device.
Route the wires in such a way that they do not cause a hazard and are not
damaged. When connecting the wires, refer to the corresponding
instructions in the operating instructions for the device. Do not drop the
device.

1.5 Power Supply
A safety-inspected power cable that satisfies the regulations of the country
of use is required for the device.
The device must not be operated unless the nominal voltage of the device
matches the values in the data sheet, described below. Check the supply
voltage of the device in stationary devices.
When connecting and disconnecting wires, refer to the instructions in the
operating instructions for the device.
Do not use any damaged wires (damaged insulation, exposed wires). A
faulty wire poses a risk of electric shock or fire hazard.
1.6 Setup and Operation
During installation, make sure that no objects or fluids get inside the device
In emergencies (e. g. if there is damage to the housing, control elements or
the mains cable, if fluids or foreign bodies have infiltrated the equipment),
switch off the power supply to the device immediately and notify your
SYMEO Service.

Product Documentation
Protect the contacts of all of the device's sockets and plugs from static
electricity. Do not touch the contacts. If it is ever necessary to touch the
contacts, take the following precautionary measures: Touch a grounded
object or carry a ground strap before touching the contacts. This will divert
static charges.
Proper operation (in accordance with IEC60950/EN60950) of the device is
only assured if the housing is fully installed (electric shock, cooling, fire
protection). If necessary, refer to the corresponding instructions in the
operating instructions for the device.
In the case of high outside temperatures and intense, direct solar radiation
or other radiant heat, it may be necessary to provide a sun or heat shield.
1.7 System Extensions and Accessories
Data links to peripheral devices must be provided with adequate shielding.
The warranty shall be voided if you cause defects to the device by installing
or exchanging system extensions.
1.8 Additional Instructions
The LPR®-1DXi unit must not be opened except for installation. The LPR®-
1DXi unit contains no serviceable components.
When opening, ensure that no fluid gets into the housing. When sealing the
unit, ensure that the seal is included in the cover and that the LPR®-1DXi
unit is completely closed. Otherwise, moisture can penetrate the unit and
damage it.
Please take note of the safety and operating instructions in the operating
instructions for the system in which you want to install the component.

2 System Description
2.1 Mode of Operation
The distance is determined by measuring the transit time of radio signals. One unit initiates
the measurement and the second unit replies.
With the software Symeo-Wizard (via Windows PC) the distances for adjustable switching
points are determined and transferred to the LPR®-1DXi device. Upon reaching a switching
threshold, on-board relays open dry contacts. Relays are available on both units. Remote
units can be configured via the built-in radio interface. Optional the distance reading is also
available on both of the units.
LPR®-1DXi units use the same frequency band and the same hardware for communicating
as for measuring distance. This means that no external WLAN or cable networks are needed
for transmitting measurement values and setting switching relays.

2.3 System Configuration
The LPR®-1DXi system consists of two LPR®-1DXi units. For distance measurement and
collision-avoidance, the two units are arranged as shown in Figure 2. The distance readings
and relays are available at both of the paired units.
Figure 2: LPR®-1DXi system
2.4 System Design
Each LPR® 1DXi unit has parameters to provide an explicit allocation to a system and also to
ensure the functionality of a system. These parameters are explained in the following:
Parameters may only be set with the commissioning tool Symeo Wizard as
described in chapter 5.4. Do not change parameters manually in the
configuration files.
2.4.1 Station-ID (SID)
Each unit has an explicit identification Number in one system. A system consists of 2 units.
The first unit has the station number 1 (SID 1), the second unit has the station number 2 (SID
2).
2.4.2 Group-ID (GID)
A pair of LPR®-1DXi units is identified clearly by its group number. The two units in one
system have the same group number. If there is used a second, a third or more system in
your environment, all additional systems must have a different group number.

2.4.3 Frequency Channel
The measurement takes place in a frequency band width of 5,725 to 5,875 GHz. In this band
width a frequency channel is assigned to the LPR®-1DXi system. 30 different frequency
channels are available. Two units in one LPR®-1DXi system need the same frequency
channel.
If there are more LPR®-1DXi systems in your environment each further
LPR®-1DXi system needs different frequency channels. The frequency
channel is linked to the group ID. Therefore it is required to use different
group IDs for different LPR®-1DXi systems in the same environment. You
can set the group IDs with the commissioning tool LPR®-1DXi Symeo
Wizard (see chapter 5).
2.5 Versions of LPR®-1DXi Units
For the LPR®-1DXi units several different versions are available:
*1
in compliance with part 15 off FCC rules and with RSS-210 of Industry Canada
Copyright © Symeo GmbH 2014
Page 10 of 38
Please take care that the distances for the switching points in your
application are within the maximum possible distance range of your version
of LPR®-1DXi.
The distance for positive signal control, monitoring the functionality of two
units, is possible up to 1800m.
