Sargas User Guide 6

Sargas User Guide

Introduction

This document applies to Sargas readers with firmware version 5.1.2 or later.

This document explains how to set up the Sargas readers, how to configure them for

network operation, and how to use the browser-based interface. See the corresponding

Sargas Firmware Release Notes for operational differences that what is in this User

Guide specific to a firmware version.

Separate appendices contain specifications and antenna information that are specific to

the Sargas reader.

Applications to control the Sargas from an external host can be written using the high level

MercuryAPI. The MercuryAPI supports Java, .NET and C programming environments.

Applications to control the Sargas using its internal processor can be written via the C

programming environment. The MercuryAPI Software Development Kit (SDK) contains

sample applications and source code to help developers get started demoing and

developing functionality. For more information on the MercuryAPI see the MercuryAPI

Programmers Guide and the MercuryAPI SDK, available on the ThingMagic website.

This document is broken down into the following sections:

Hardware Overview - Provides detailed specifications of the Sargas hardware and

physical interfaces.

Introduction

Sargas User Guide 7

Programming Interfaces - Describes the programming interfaces, including on-reader

applications, where to find code samples, and the LLRP interface.

The following sections explain the methods available for connecting to the Sargas

over the ethernet, and USB interfaces.

– Setting Up the Reader - Connect using a direct ethernet connection from a

Host PC to the Sargas.

– Networking Settings - Connect over ethernet LAN using DHCP, self-

allocated, or static IP settings.

– Connecting to the USB Console Port - Connect to the Sargas console for

command-line interface access and troubleshooting.

Using GPIO - Details the GPIO physical interface specs and how to control it via the

MercuryAPI.

Controlling the Reader - Describes the browser-based interface and the configuration

and testing options available through it.

– Protocol Support - Provides descriptions of the Sargas advanced protocol

specific configuration options that ares supported through the use of the

MercuryAPI

Reader RF Power - Provides guidelines and limitations for setting the RF Power of the

Sargas.

Mounting the Reader and Appendix B: Sargas Dimensions - Provides details of the

physical dimensions of the Sargas.

Sargas Specifications - Table of Sargas specifications.

Compliance and IP Notices - Regulator notices.

Appendix A: Sargas Antenna and Cable Information - Lists the authorized Antennas

and cables which can be used with the Sargas in FCC regions.

Appendix C: Advanced Administration - Provides the steps for some advanced

administration settings, such as changing reader passwords.

Appendix D: Troubleshooting - Provides recommended debugging steps for common

problems and instructions for gathering log data when submitting a problem case to

ThingMagic support.

Sargas Reader Dev Kit

– AC Power Adapter with interchangeable plugs (PWRADP-S6-MR)

Ports and Connectors

Antenna Connections

The Sargas supports two monostatic bidirectional RF antennas through two Reverse

Polarity SMA (abbreviated to “RP-SMA”) connectors: labeled ANT1 and ANT2 on the

Sargas - Figure 1.

The maximum RF power that can be delivered to a 50 ohm load from the external port is

1.0 Watts, (+30.0 dBm). Depending on the antenna used and the regulations for the

region of operation, the maximum permitted level may be lower than this.

The RF ports can only be energized one at a time, but can be configured to alternate

many times per second, often resulting in the appearance of continuous reading on both

antennas.

Sargas User Guide 9

Figure 1: Sargas RFID Antenna Ports

Antenna Requirements

The performance of the Sargas is affected by antenna quality. Antennas that provide

good 50 ohm match at the operating frequency band perform best. The degree of

antenna match is measured as a return loss in negative dBm units, with a higher

numerical (more negative) value being a better match. Specified sensitivity performance

is achieved with antennas providing -17 dB return loss or better across the operating

band. Damage to the reader will not occur for any return loss of -1 dB or greater.

WARNING!

Damage may occur if antennas are disconnected during operation or if the

Sargas sees an open or short circuit at its antenna port.

WARNING!

To comply with FCC’s RF radiation exposure requirements, the antenna(s) used

for this transmitter must be installed such that a minimum separation distance

of 22 cm is maintained between the radiator (antenna) & user’s/nearby people’s

body at all times and must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with

any other antenna or transmitter.
