SFISZ100SCHOOL ZONE FLASHING BEACON

School Zone Flashing Beacon Description and Installation Instructions Introduction JSF Technologies’ School Zone Flashing Beacon is the most efficient system available on the market. Being solar powered, the system installs in minutes on any pole with no electrical connection. The school district is able to create an annual usage schedule or make immediate changes to the schedule from any location over the Internet. The schedule is transmitted wirelessly to the units with the click of a mouse and the user receives e- mail confirmation that the schedule was received. The system is made up of one Primary unit (SZ 100) and any number of Satellite AB500 units ( FCC ID:SFIAB500) for each school. The Primary receives and stores an entire years schedule information via wireless “Narrow-Band PCS” communications across North America. Each time the system is scheduled to flash, the Primary transmits “Turn On” and “Turn Off” messages to the Satellites, via 902-928 MHz spread spectrum radio signal within a range of 1 kilometer. Each field adjustable network of school zone flashers has 8 addresses to ensure that systems at adjacent schools do not interfere with eachother. The system is available with 8” or 12” signal lights. Each School Zone (SZ100) unit consists of key parts: 1. The Solar Panel housing that contains • Solar Panels: 4.5W, 6V, 12 ¾” x 5 1/8” per solar panel. Multiple panels used on some models. • Antennas: Primary contains two antennas, Satellites contain one antenna. SZ100 units utilize a unique reverse polarity SMA connector. The antenna is ANT-916-CW-HD ¼ wave Whip from Linx Technologies. Gain of 3dBi. Primary and Satellite beacons communicate in a local RF network situated up to 1000 metres from eachother. • Batteries: 2V, 25Ah, BC cell. Multiple batteries used on some models. • Control circuitry. Satellites contain one control box. (It is a actually standard AB500 Active Beacon unit that are working only in receive mode.) Primary contains two control boxes. One of them is a standard AB500 module and the second one is a School Zone Flasher unit that has a FCC approved Advantra pager module and a CC1010 based spread spectrum 900Mhz transmitter. When SZ100 unit transmits the signals ON or OFF the AB500 receives the signal through the leakage of RF energy from SZ100 unit. The satellite units receive the signal through the antennas. The Printed Circuit Board (SZ100) controller, which includes a CC1010 complete RF System-on-Chip solution, Narrow-Band PCS module, real time clock (RTC) and memory chip. Memory holds a one-year school schedule. The memory can be transferred through a serial port or by the Narrow-Band PCS system. The CC1010 integrates a low- power 300-to-1000 MHz RF transceiver and an 8051-compatible micro-controller. The PCB is installed inside of aluminum housing to reduce EMI. Switches installed on the PCB allow the installer to configure the network address and LED flash pattern. DC-to-DC circuitry converts energy from Batteries, Solar Panels to provide voltage levels compatible with the multiple LED Arrays and battery charging. The CC1010 microcontroller runs on two clock frequencies 32.768 kHz and 14.7456 MHz and controls all functions required to integrate RF communication, charging and LED flashing. The CC1010 is equipped with fully programmable, fast-settling frequency synthesizer. The two frequency registers are designed such that the “next” frequency can be programmed while the “present” frequency is used. The switching between the two frequencies is done through the special register. During synchronization when Rx receives a “right” signal it knows what the next frequency will be looking at the frequency table. The receiver and the transceiver from the moment of the capturing synchronously follow the frequency table. The 51 frequencies are used in a unique predefined pseudo-random sequence. In the simple example below, the five frequencies are used in the sequence 902.5, 914.0, 914.5, 910.0, 919.5 MHz. For communication to take place, the transmitter and receiver must use the same frequency: 902.5MHz 914MHz 914.5MHz 910MHz 919.5MHz 910.5MHz 913.5MHz 925MHz 911.5MHz 912MHz 917.5MHz 907.5MHz 903.5MHz 927MHz 926MHz 922MHz 909.5MHz 905.5MHz 919MHz 911MHz 915MHz 913MHz 918.5MHz 925.5MHz 905MHz 909MHz 921.5MHz 915.5MHz 924.5MHz 903MHz 916MHz 904.5MHz 916.5MHz 917MHz 920MHz 918MHz 908.5MHz 923MHz 907MHz 927.5MHz 920.5MHz 921MHz 904MHz 906.5MHz 908MHz 926.5MHz 922.5MHz 906MHz 924MHz 923.5MHz 912.5MHz The receiver IF bandwidth is 175 kHz matching the transmitted signal of 64 kHz-frequency separation. The maximum output power of transmitter is 20dBm. The Primary Beacon is installed on the top of 2 - 3meter pole so the distance between the antenna and people satisfy power RF density limit. Long-life battery capacity. The system is trickle charged during daylight hours, even in cloudy conditions. On a full charge, the system will operate at the rated usage for over one month without any solar charging. 2. One or two individual 8” or 12” light heads: “A” and “B” containing high efficiency LED light modules. The activation signal ON is received by Satellite beacons in the vicinity of the Primary with the same address. The beacons will flash until OFF signal is received. Installation Each unit is packaged in separate boxes, with a number of individual parts: • Bundle of individual batteries • Upper light head “A” with mounting bracket • Lower light head “B” with mounting bracket • Solar panel housing • Light face bonnets 1. We will start by installing the batteries into the Solar Panel Casing on your workbench. Remove the bolts on the solar panel casing and remove the top. Be careful because there are wires from the solar panels on the top of the casing to the control box on the bottom of the casing. Next, pull the batteries, AS A GROUP, out of the battery box. Lay the batteries down flat on your workbench so that you have all batteries in an orderly row. In the middle of the …
