Page 5: Introduction
The EX3210 extends the AeroScout suite to provide robust and sophisticated RFID detection capabilities, using the same AeroScout tags that can also be accurately located in real time by the AeroScout system. The EX3210 triggers AeroScout’s tags as they pass through a choke point or when they are located near an Exciter and they transmit a message to AeroScout Location Receivers or compatible Access Points in range. -
Page 6: Application And Industry Examples
Health care facilities and general enterprises can tag valuable assets that are intended to stay within a certain area. The AeroScout system can track the location of those assets, and if they leave through an exit or enter a restricted area, the EX3210 triggers a tag message. -

to transmit one of 15 pre-stored messages; to transmit and store up to 15 bytes of data sent to it by the EX3210. Network connectivity Enables remote programming, monitoring and software updates by the AeroScout Engine. In addition, the EX3210 can work in offline mode disconnected from the network, thus eliminating the need for a physical network feed. - Page 8 Orange LED blinking indicates that data is moving across the LAN interface. Orange LED constantly lit or off indicates that the LAN interface is idle. Connectors Panel Figure 4 describes the EX3210 connector panel (bottom panel). Figure 4.

Page 9: Connecting The Ex3210 To The Network And Power Source
Master. 6. Control Switch – The position of this determines the position of EX3210 in the chain: on the first and last EX3210 in the chain, set the switch to EXT. On in-between devices, set the switch to INT. - Page 10 The PoE Single Port Injector converts 110/220VAC to 48VDC. In addition, it can receive a network connection. When using this injector, do not connect a power supply to the power jack of the EX3210. Use only certified POE injector with limited power source.
- Page 11 The injector can be used for both networked and non-networked EX3210s. In case of a non-networked EX3210, the IN connector on the injector is not used. Note that an injector can provide enough power for two EX3210 only. When using the injector with chained EX3210s, an injector must be connected to every second EX3210 in the chain.

Page 12: Chaining Ex3210S
110 or 220 adaptor 50-60Hz The EX3210 port cannot support power required by more than three EX3210s as it is limited to a current of 1.5A. Chaining EX3210s When an EX3210 solution needs to be applied at a point where the required coverage is more than a single EX3210 can actually cover, you can chain several EX3210s to each other, thus extending the coverage area. - Page 13 Up to 8 EX3210s can be connected to each other in a chain, as follows: The first EX3210 in the chain that is directly connected to the LAN is called the “master”. The others are called “slave”. Any EX3210 can be master or a slave.

Page 14: Resetting The Ex3210
Resetting the EX3210 You can reset the EX3210’s IP address to the factory defaults by pressing the IP Reset button using a thin, pin-like object. The Reset button is located on the LAN side of EX3210. The default IP address is 192.168.1.178. After a successful IP reset the red LED will lit for two seconds. -

If you wish to later change the IP settings (IP, subnet, gateway or ports) you can do so by right-clicking on the EX3210 and selecting IP Settings. Check that the EX3210’s status is OK by right clicking on the EX3210 icon and selecting Status. Also verify in the status window that the firmware versions (DSP and Second Boot) are compatible with the current installed Engine version and EX3210 hardware version. -
Page 16: Mounting The Ex3210
The recommended screw diameter is 4mm. On a Narrow Support Use the following procedure to fasten EX3210 to a fixed support such as a pole: Fasten the mounting plate that comes with EX3210 to the pole, threading the strap through the vertical, rectangular holes. - Page 17 AeroScout EX3210 Exciter Exciter Figure 10. Mounting plate Fasten EX3210 to the mounting plate using through screws. On the Ceiling Install the ceiling mount. Figure 11. Ceiling Mount Fasten the mounting plate to the ceiling mount by inserting a screw through the central hole of plate.
