XT-3 eu for the European market (865.6-867.6 MHz) and XT-3 us for the US market (902-928 MHz). The reader has a built-in antenna and can be expanded with an optional external antenna. The read range is five meters for XT-3 eu and six meters for XT-3 us. -
Page 5: Safety Instructions Instructions
Doc no. 11-267 02 Safety Instructions Instructions Read this manual carefully before using the XT-3 reader and take notice of warnings in order to prevent injury and product damage. Where local regulations exist, these are to be followed. The safety information in this manual is a supplement to local regulations. -
Page 6: Installation
3.1.1 Electromagnetic Interference Industrial noise is typically present in the kHz and low MHz frequency band. The XT-3 reader uses 860-960 MHz frequencies, so typical industrial noise will not affect the communication. -
Page 7: Mounting The Reader
3.2.2 Cables and Power Supply Cables and power supply are not supplied with the XT-3 reader. All cables should be shielded and suitable for the installation environment, for instance indoor or outdoor environment. Use flexible cables with stranded wire. The reader chassis should be grounded during installation. - Page 8 Hot surface! The back of the reader enclosure can become hot during continuous operation in a hot environment. The Universal Mounting Kit (Part No. 193600) from TagMaster enables the Reader to be mounted in a wide variety of positions and angles. The kit contains all parts needed ©...

The common GND connection in J2 and J41-J43 is a floating reference ground for the interface block signals. This makes it possible to operate the interface with the voltage potential set from the other party. The reference ground is internally connected to the chassis via a discharge resistor to avoid static voltage potential. -
