  • Page 4: Section 1 - Introduction & Specifications

    1.1.1 - GENERAL DESCRIPTION AWID's LR-3000 reader is a rugged, weather resistant, long-range Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) reader that works with a selection of hands-free and vehicle mounted credentials. This reader comes with a unique combination of long read range, small size, and low power consumption.

  • Page 5: Specifications

    1.2.2 - CABLE EXITING FROM LR-3000 READER The cable that is integrated into the LR-3000 is 22 gauge, 10 conductors, multi-conductor wire, color-coded insulation, not twisted pairs, overall 100% shielded, 32 inches long. (The 10-pin connector on the reader's cable is used for factory testing only. The installer removes the connector and strips the insulation.)
  • Page 6 LR-3000 reader. • The ideal power supply has a DC voltage and current rating of 12V at 3.0A or more for the LR-3000 reader. This helps to assure that the current remains quiet and steady.

  • Page 7: Section 2 - Planning

    2 feet of shrubbery or metal columns/posts. • Weather: The LR-3000 has an IP65 rating. The LR-3000 reader can be installed outdoors; if ambient temperatures are very high, use a vehicle presence sensor to arm the reader.
  • Page 8 2.2.6 - POWERING THE READER • For each LR-3000 reader, provide an independent DC power supply that is not used to power any other equipment. • Quality: The power supply should be regulated, switching power supply.

  • Page 9: Section 3 - Installing

    These installation instructions are for the LR-3000 reader's Wiegand interface, using Data-0 and Data-1 wires. Note: LR-3000 wiring is not the same as a 125 kHz proximity reader. Follow the instructions in Section 3.2.2. If a serial interface using RS-232 protocol will be used, please download AWID’s Technical Reference on RS-232 Reader Interface.
  • Page 10 Do not ground the drain. 5. Grounds —the LR-3000 and its power supply have no ground connection. Do not connect black, blue and drain wires together. 6. Unused wires — keep the reader's orange wire available to connect the LR-Sounder during set-up and testing. Cap the unused violet and brown wires separately.

  • Page 11: Installing The Credentials

    Plan the installation considering these factors before installation starts. 2. Start by testing the LR-3000 reader using the LR-TEK's LR-Sounder unit and the hand-held test credentials, with no vehicle present at the reader. When good read range has been proved, proceed to mounting the credentials in or on the vehicles.

    4.1.3 - ITEMS FOR TESTING AWID's long-range reader and credentials can be tested easily using the built-in LED and the items listed below. It is not necessary to interface the reader to an access control panel or reader-input module while conducting this test.

  • Page 14: Trouble-Shooting

    • If the credential remains in the reader's effective RF field, reads repeat at about 3 per second (factory default rate). • By moving the test credential in the space in front of the LR-3000 reader, the installer can map the extent of the effective RF field that is plotted in Figure 1.
  • Page 15 • Current rating for a 12 volt switching power supply, at least 2.0A. • AWID's PS-12-3.3A plug-in power module (in the LR-TEK) is recommended for a single LR-3000 reader. Calculate voltage drop between the power supply and the reader: The 4-point test is —...
  • Page 16 4.2.4 - WIRING Wiring an LR-3000 reader is not the same as wiring other reader types For the Wiegand interface, Data-0 and Data-1 lines are the same, but all other wires are different. Refer to the wiring diagram for additional support.
  • Page 17 Wiegand-style encoding that AWID has programmed into the credentials. Therefore the systems monitor may display the code data in the same data fields, and the same number system (decimal), that AWID uses for its encoding. Testing may be as simple as reading the decimal values of the credential's data fields on the monitor.
  • Page 18 Leave the aluminum foil open in front of the reader so that the reader can communicate with the test tags. Remove power from other LR-3000 readers that are less than 8 feet from the tested reader if they are aimed parallel (as in neighboring lanes at the gates), or less than 30 feet from the tested reader if they are aimed head-on toward the tested reader.
  • Page 19 • Keep the screws that fasten the aluminum plate to the reader's plastic housing in place. Do not drill holes in the plate. • Remove heavy snow from the face of the LR-3000 reader and from the windshield over tags inside the vehicle.

  • Page 20: Glossary

    Desired Read Zone - The space in front of the LR-3000 reader where most credentials in a given installation are read. This is typically about 10 feet to 15 feet direct measurement from the face of the reader.
