LEGIC Booster (representing vehicle ID). Once configured, the LEGIC Booster allows a driver ID badge together with its embedded vehicle ID to be read from a distance up to 10 meters (33 feet) in combination with NEDAP TRANSIT readers. This solution substantially enhances the level of security when controlling activities of vehicles that are regularly used by different drivers.
2.1 Dimensions The LEGIC Booster is easily mounted on the interior of the car’s windshield by means of suction cups. Users should ensure the visual contact between the LEGIC Booster and any TRANSIT reader is unobstructed with items such as stickers or metalized windshields (see also chapter 2.3 about solar control windshields).
LEGIC Boosters | installation guide 2.2 Temperature considerations The LEGIC Booster is designed to operate within the extreme temperature ranges, which often occur behind a vehicle’s windshield during the winter or summer seasons (-20°C to +85°C). However the LEGIC card inserted in the LEGIC Booster may not be designed to withstand such temperatures and could suffer damage as a result.
Booster only accepts a configuration card after configuration is enabled with a master token card. A newly purchased LEGIC Booster will accept any master token card. Once a master token has been inserted, the LEGIC Booster will only accept that specific master token and cannot be reconfigured with other master tokens.
LEGIC Boosters | installation guide 3.3 Configuration software NEDAP has developed a software application that allows system integrators to create configuration cards. This software can be downloaded from our partner portal website https://portal.nedapidentification.com. A LEGIC Advant programmer based upon LEGIC SC-2560 or SM-4500 chipset is required.

LEGIC Boosters | installation guide 3.4 Testing the configuration The configuration can be tested on your read/write unit with the LEGIC cards that should be supported. This test can be performed before the configuration cards are created and without any LEGIC Boosters. 3.4.1 Start testing Start reading by clicking 'Configuration', 'Test' and 'Start Reading' (or press F9).
4.2 Reading the LEGIC Booster The LEGIC Booster is battery operated passive tag. The information from the tag is sent to the reader by a method called modulated backscatter. This means that the reader's transmitted signal is modified by the LEGIC Booster in such way that it can be recognized by the reader.
