  • Page 4: Introduction

    Typical applications include hands-free door access in hospitals, office buildings, gated communities, care homes and universities. The uPASS Access is ideal for door post mounting at a height of about 1.5 meters ( ). It can be installed directly 5 feet onto a wall next to a door, without requiring additional mounting accessories.
  • Page 5: Supported Tags

    These tags are especially programmed in the same format as our TRANSIT tags (Compact-Tag, Window-Button and Heavy-Duty-Tag). The tags will have a customer-code and id-number. The reader will modulate the tag-info onto the Nedap antenna interface output, which can be connected to NEDAP AEOS access control hardware such as the AP1001.

    Access | installation guide 2.3 Antenna coverage The uPASS Access antenna has a detection coverage area as shown in the picture below. The read range, which is up to 2 meters, can be adjusted by means of UHFTOOL software setting. See chapter 5.3.5.
  • Page 10: Connections

    Shield connected to DC-ground. Connect to metal case of the external device. 3.1 Power supply The uPASS Access requires DC power supply in the range from 12 – 24V. Maximum current consumption is 1A @ 12VDC, 1A @ 24VDC. Connections Power supply 12 - 24VDC.

    Rev. C Figure 4: RS485 point-to-point communication (uPASS Access Rev. C) The uPASS Access reader models before 2020 (Rev. A/B) have a fixed termination resistor. This means you don’t need to install a separate termination resistor. See Figure 5. uPASS HOST 120 Ω...
  • Page 12 Figure 6: RS485 multi-drop communication Notes The uPASS Access reader models before 2020 (Rev. A/B) have a fixed termination resistor, which cannot not be • disabled. This means that these readers should only be used in point-to-point communication. Use shielded twisted pair cable when extending the RS485 wiring beyond the standard 5 meter cable.

    Access | installation guide 3.6 Nedap antenna interface The Nedap antenna interface is used to connect the uPASS Access to NEDAP AEOS access control hardware such as the AP1001. Instead of proximity antenna the uPASS Access can be connected.
  • Page 20: Uhf Frequencies

    4 UHF frequencies 4.1 Radio regulations The uPASS Access reader operates on the 860 – 960 MHz band. Regulations in this band are not standardized world- wide. Generally the regulations can be divided into several regions. Per region a specific frequency band is available. This frequency band is divided into frequency channels. If local radio regulations require frequency hopping (FHSS), then the uPASS Access automatically selects and uses the available channels.
  • Page 21: Reader Configuration

    Access | installation guide 5 Reader configuration The uPASS reader settings can be configured easily using the UHFTOOL software. Software developers can find the communication protocol description in the firmware manual. 5.1 UHFTOOL software Figure 9: UHFTOOL software 5.2 Settings Click 'View', 'Show config sidebar' or press F11 to show the configuration sidebar.
  • Page 22: Read Data

    By default, the reader is configured to select ANY TAG and read its EPC number. Select NEDAP to read only Nedap tags. NEDAP DUAL-ID enables the uPASS to search for Nedap vehicle-id tags. When a vehicle-id tag is found, the uPASS searches for driver-id tags.
  • Page 23: Decode Nedap-Xs

    Enable decode Nedap-XS when you do not want to use the NEDAP antenna interface. The uPASS will decode the Nedap-XS tag data and output its tag-number in readable format. You can also enable to output or verify the customer code.
  • Page 24: Relay / Timing

    The 'Vehicle hold time' setting is the time, after a vehicle-id tags has been found, for which the reader will search for driver-id tags. This setting is only used in the NEDAP DUAL-ID mode. The Random off time parameter can be used to enable time sharing between multiple readers on the same frequency.
