    This document Wireless Tag Reader Overview The Wireless Tag Reader (WTR) is one component of a Stanley Healthcare Solutions Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) system. The WTR detects tags and then wire- lessly transmits the tag identification data to the RFID system.
  • Page 4: Installation Tips

    • The WTR must be installed within 15’ (4.5m) of a receiver, so that the signals can be relayed to the RoamAlert server. The WTR is often located in view of facility visitors and personnel. To maintain secure operation in this environment, the WTR case was designed so that it cannot be opened once installed.
  • Page 5 Figure 2: WTR Mounted Beside a Door to Illustrate Maximum LF Field The LF detection field is approximately spherical and has a maximum 6 ft. (1.8 m) radius. The range remains the same regardless of the WTR’s physical orientation. The LF Field radius can be varied as described in “Setting the LF Field Strength” on page 8.
  • Page 6 Open the WTR using a Number 1 Phillips screwdriver to remove the 4 screws. Note the settings on the two red DIP switches, but do NOT adjust them. Push the power wire through the WTR backplate and work it towards the wiring connector.
  • Page 7 Configuring the WTR WTR configuration involves four steps: • Setting the LF field strength (the WTR must be in Test Mode), • Selecting the operating mode, • Setting the unique address for the WTR, and • Setting the indicator LEDs and buzzer.

  • Page 8 Options DIP Switch Settings The Options DIP switch block is used to enable or disable End of Line (EOL) resistors and annunciation, and to set edge selection and the operating mode. Figure 6: Switches on the Options DIP Switch Block Setting the LF Field Strength Varying the LF Field strength changes the size of the tag detection zone.
  • Page 9: Selecting The Operating Mode

    Check along the floor and near the ceilings to ensure that the entire space is filled with the LF Field. If the LF Field is inconsistent, turn the field adjustment slightly clockwise. If you have increased the LF Field strength, repeat Step 5 to ensure that the field does not extend beyond the detection area.
  • Page 10: Standby Mode

    Standby Mode In Standby Mode the WTR can be triggered by an opening or closing contact to generate an LF Field for a 10 second interval. During this interval, tags in the LF Field are scanned and the tag data transmitted to the RFID system. •...
  • Page 11 To use EOL resistors, move switch 1 of the Options DIP switch block to the position. See Figure 6 on page 8. For a definition of EOL, see “Using End Of Line Resistors in Standby Mode” on page 10. Setting the WTR Address Each WTR must have an address unique within the system.
