The basic item is a transponder that works as a forgery-proof electronic identity disk. The reading unit of the system sends an energy impulse via the antenna. The capacitor of the passive, battery-free transponder is charged by this impulse. After that, the transponder returns a signal with the stored data. The total reading cycle takes less than 100 ms. As a sight connection between the transponder and the reader is not absolutely necessary, the transponder can also be identified through non-metallic material. The BROOKS CF-Card Transponder Reader is a device to read and write to TIRIS transponder. The card can be used in connection with a notebook or a PDA. 1 INTRODUCTION 6 Transponder Reader – CF-Card, Release 1.1 1.2 About this Manual This manual contains information about installing, operating and error handling the BROOKS CF-Card Transponder Reader. It consists of seven chapters: ƒ Introduction ƒ Safety Instructions ƒ Product Description ƒ Installation ƒ Operation ƒ Service and Error Handling ƒ Transportation, Disposal and Storage SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS 2 7 Transponder Reader – CF-Card, Release 1.1 2 SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS This product is manufactured in accordance with state of the art technology and corresponds to recognized safety regulations.
