If this equipment does cause harmfulinterference to radio or television reception, which can be determined byturning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correctthe interference by one or more of the following measures:- Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.- Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.- Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that towhich the receiver is connected.- Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help. Operation is subject to the following two conditions:1) This device may not cause interference and2) This device must accept any interference, including interference thatmay cause undesired operation of the device. This equipment complies with FCC radiation exposure limits set forth foran uncontrolled environment. End users must follow the specific operatinginstructions for satisfying RF exposure compliance. This transmitter mustnot be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna ortransmitter.
For customer in Europe This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits set outin the R&TTE Directive. Where you see this symbol on any of our electrical products/packaging inEurope, it means that at end of life the product/battery must be disposed ofin accordance with any applicable laws or requirements for the separatedisposal of electrical equipment/batteries. The manufacturer of this product is CADI Scientific Pte Ltd, 31 Ubi Road 1,#03-00 Aztech Building, Singapore 408694.PRECAUTIONS Connect only recommended power supply to the unit. Place the unit on a stable and non-slip surface.
SETUPThe diagram shows the available ports of the SMN-870. They are located onthe back of the unit.The SMN-870 can be powered in 2 ways: external powered by DC adapter orPOE (Power over Ethernet).1. DC adapter poweredPlug a suitable adapter (e.g. 12vdc 1A) such as the one shown belowinto the DC port.2. POE poweredPlug the LAN cable into the LAN port, making sure the line is astandard 802.3af POE source such as the one shown below.
Once the power is supplied and the LAN is plugged in, the SMN-870 willautomatically turn on and start searching for a server connection. To configurethe device, connect a RS-232 null-modem cable to port 1. Open a serialterminal program (e.g. Hyper Terminal for Windows) at 19200bps/N/1 andtype in the appropriate information e.g.:SS=10.0.0.64<enter> (the server IP address)PP=25004<enter> (the port to connect)NM=255.0.0.0<enter> (the netmask address)GW=10.0.0.1<enter> (the gateway IP address)DHCP=True<enter> (for dynamic IP address)OrDHCP=False<enter> (for fixed IP address)Note: for fixed IP address, the user must configure an IP address by typing e.g.:IP=10.0.0.65<enter>When the parameters are correctly entered, the Hyper Terminal will echo backthe message. Alternatively, to check if the parameters have been enteredcorrectly, use the “?” operator to query e.g.:SS=?<enter> (to display the currently configured server IP addresses)PP=?<enter> (to display the currently configured port)NM=?<enter> (to display the current netmask address)GW=?<enter> (to display the current gateway IP address)DHCP=?<enter> (to display the current DHCP status)IP=?<enter> (to display the current IP address of the device)MAC=?<enter> (to display the device MAC address)DID=?<enter> (to display the device serial number)When the server connection is successful, the left green LED will light up. Thedevice is now ready for use.
DescriptionThe SMN-870 SmartNODE is designed as part of the SmartSense suite ofproducts as an interface to communicate with tags such as TSS-870. Ittransmits LF frequencies, and transmits and receives UHF signals.The SMN-870 has a user interface consisting of a LCD display, 3 bi-colourLEDs, and 6 pushbuttons. The descriptions are as follows:1. Left wireless zone box: proximity communication surface2. Buzzer(internal): To serve as alert for positive keypress ornotification3. LCD: To display information4. Left LED: server connection status indicator5. Centre LED: Tag communication indicator6. ON button: To turn on a tag7. OFF/END button: To turn off a tag or end a process8. STATUS button: To check the status of the tag9. ISSUE button: to issue a tag10. RETURN button: to return a tag11. DISCARD button: to discard a tagIn some installations, the SMN-870 is provided with a barcode scanner tosupplement its operation. For these cases, the barcode scanner should beconnected to RS-232 port 2.
USAGEThe SMN-870 works in 2 modes: HSA mode and Hospital mode. In HSAmode, only the ON, OFF, and STATUS buttons are available. In Hospitalmode, only ISSUE, RETURN, STATUS, and DISCARD buttons are available.Note: the unit will not respond to user input if server connection is notdetected (i.e. left green LED is not lit up)HSA mode operationTurn On tagsPlace a tag (e.g. TSS-870) onto the box on the left. Press ON to turn on thetag. LCD display shows “Please wait…”, then switches to “ID:xxxxxxxxxxxx”“Logging,Batt:xx% (centre green LED lights up briefly), then to“ID:xxxxxxxxxxxx Tag is ON”Turn Off tagsPlace a tag (e.g. TSS-870) onto the box on the left. Press OFF to turn off thetag. LCD display shows “Please wait…”, then switches to “ID:xxxxxxxxxxxx”“OFF,Batt:xx% (centre green LED lights up briefly), then to “ID:xxxxxxxxxxxxTag is OFF”
Status of tagsPlace a tag (e.g. TSS-870) onto the box on the left. Press STATUS to displaythe tag’s current status. LCD display shows “ID:xxxxxxxxxxxx” “OFF,Batt:xx%(centre green LED lights up briefly), or “ID:xxxxxxxxxxxx” “Logging,Batt:xx%(centre green LED lights up briefly).Hospital mode operationIssuing tagsPress ISSUE button to start the issue process. The LCD will display: “IssuingMode”. Place a tag onto the box on the left. The LCD will display:“ID:xxxxxxxxxxxx Cur:xx Max:xx ºC”. Press ISSUE button again to confirmissue of the tag.
