Operation Manual
High Frequency Integrated RFID Reader Operation Manual Guangdong Sygole Intelligent Technology Co.,Ltd
Note: the time mentioned in above table refers to the experimental test data read at a time and is only for
your reference. However, a certain additional time brought by 2-3 repeated tag read-write operations of the
reader may probably appear in the field application. In addition, such time is also closely related to the
communication transmission mode and the speed. The specific read-write time should follow the field test.
3.3 Installation instruction
3.3.1 Overview
RFID reader is operated on the basis of the magnetic field, so according to the magnetic field
property, any metal near to the reader can influence the function of the reader. Therefore, please
pay attention to the following contents during field installation:
1. When a tag is embedded into the metal, it is necessary to place the tag in parallel with or higher
than the metal plane;
2. In metallic environment, please pay attention to the installation distance between the reader and
the metal;
3. If a metal framework is installed with multiple readers, interference may be caused thereby;
4. Please pay attention to the minimum installation distance between two tags (please refer to the
tag instruction for details);
5. Please pay attention to the minimum installation distance between two readers (please refer to
the reader instruction for details);
3.3.2 Notice for installation in metallic environment
According the principle and characteristics of high frequency RFID, if a reader is installed on
metal, the performance thereof will be influenced, so please pay attention to the following
contents when the reader is installed in a metallic environment:
Installation on metal surface ---- it is necessary to reserve a buffer area (nonmetallic medium can
be added in the buffer area)
Buffer area ---- it refers to the distance from the reader to the metal surface
1. Buffer area = 0 cm, namely: the reader is directly installed on the metal surface, and the
read-write distance of the reader will be reduced by at least 10%; the specific data are related to
metal material, size, thickness, etc.;
2. When a buffer area is more than or equal to 20 mm, the performance of the reader is
approximate to that of the reader installed on a nonmetallic surface; it is suggested to design the
buffer area to be more than 20 mmduring installation.
Fig.3.7 Demonstration for Nut Type Reader Installation in Metallic Environment
If the shell of the reader is made of metal, it is suggested to adopt a plastic support under the
condition of poor ground connection, as shown in Fig. 3.8:
