GENERAL INFORMATION 1.1 INTRODUCTION This manual provides information pertaining to the installation and operation of the Model 1880 Combo Reader/Antenna, PCB only, (RFID, Inc. Part No. 710-0005-00) or Model 1880E (the E signifying enclosure) (RFID, Inc. Part No. 800-0006-00). 1.2 DESCRIPTION...
If the shipping carton is damaged or shows evidence of abusive handling, inspect the Reader for visible damage including dents, scratches, etc. If the unit appears damaged, contact the carrier and RFID, Inc. Sales or Customer Service Departments immediately. Keep the shipping and packaging material for the carrier's inspection.
Disabled: 30 mA (max.) RFID, Inc. can provide transformers and power supplies suitable for use with the Model 1880. If you provide your own power supply, it is recommended that you avoid switching power supplies. These supplies produce electromagnetic interference (EMI) that WILL interfere with the operation of the Combo Reader.
AC/DC POWER SELECTION The Combo Reader contains an on-board bridge rectifier for conversion of floating AC power input to DC. For operation with DC input, this full-wave bridge can be bypassed with jumper J2. AC Operation - Select the full-wave bridge by removing shorting jumper J2 from the printed circuit board.
REMOTE ENABLE CABLING Combo Reader operation may be controlled from an Interface or remote unit via the enable inputs (EN, EN BAR) at TB2 locations 1 and 2. Disabling the Combo Reader shuts off the Antenna’s 148 kHz transmissions and reduces current draw to 30 mA (max). If the remote enable feature is not used, a shorting jumper must be placed across J1 and the EN/EN BAR inputs may be left unconnected.
RFID, Inc. products are warranted against defects in materials and workmanship for one (1) year from date of shipment. RFID, Inc. shall, at its option, either repair or replace products that prove to be defective and are returned with freight prepaid to RFID, Inc.’s plant within the warranty period. The foregoing warranty shall not apply to defects resulting from abuse, misuse, accident, alteration, neglect or unauthorized repair or installation.
