Read range adjustment The reader efficiently resolves typical multi-lane, entry and exit reader challenges. The read range of the TRANSIT Ultimate can be adjusted to offer secure and reliable identification in demanding applications. Housing & mounting The TRANSIT Ultimate is intended for outdoor installation. The weatherproof TRANSIT Ultimate reader features an IP66 certified housing. The reader operates reliable under harsh environmental conditions and is able to withstand exposure to rain, snow and ice. Wall mounting equipment is included. Interfaces & protocols The TRANSIT Ultimate is designed for seamless and flexible integration into existing management systems in the industry, such as security, parking, and logistics. Several communication interfaces to the host system are available such as RS232, RS422, RS485, Profibus-DP and TCP/IP. Also open industry-standards protocols such as Wiegand, Magstripe and Barcode are supported. Customer specific protocols can be implemented on request.
TRANSIT ULTIMATE | INSTALLATION GUIDE INTRODUCTION 4/36 1.2 ULTIMATE FEATURES Encrypted tag authentication The TRANSIT Ultimate enables encrypted tag authentication for the Ultimate tags: Smartcard Booster Ultimate, LEGIC Booster Ultimate and Window Tag Ultimate. The authentication uses encryption based upon AES 128-bit keys. Key diversification is used to ensure that a unique encryption key is used for every tag. Data storage Thanks to the bi-directional tag communication feature and in combination with Smartcard-Booster Ultimate it will be possible to write information on the drivers’ access control card when the car enters or leaves a perimeter. This will enable write actions like changing credits, offline access rights or other information changes dynamically upon perimeter access. Implementation The Ultimate-mode features are implemented in the TAB board. The TAB-board performs the authentication or other Ultimate function using the bi-directional tag communication channel at 433MHz. Figure 1: TRANSIT Ultimate block diagram Authentication procedure The encrypted tag authentication is performed when both antennas (433MHz and 2.45GHz) receive the same id-number. This ensures that the tag to be authenticated is located in the well-defined directional beam in front of the reader. 1. Receive Ultimate tag id-number. 2. Send encrypted challenge to the tag. The challenge is generated by the Security Key Pack based upon random numbers encrypted with a diversified AES128 key. 3. Receive, decrypt and verify the encrypted challenge response from the tag. 4. When the authentication is successful, the id-number is transmitted on the communication output(s).

TRANSIT ULTIMATE | INSTALLATION GUIDE INSTALLATION 5/36 2. INSTALLATION 2.1 SAFETY PRECAUTIONS The following safety precautions should be observed during normal use, service and repair:  The TRANSIT Ultimate shall be connected to safety ground.  Disconnecting from (mains) power supply before removing any parts.  The TRANSIT Ultimate shall only be installed and serviced by qualified service personnel.  To be sure of safety, do not modify or add anything other than mentioned in this manual or indicated by NEDAP N.V. 2.2 INSTALLATION GUIDELINES The TRANSIT Ultimate can be installed in any position. The normally expected read range is up to 10 meters. Usually the reader is mounted in the horizontal position. In this case the coverage area in the horizontal plane is maximized. The horizontal beam is 80 degrees. Horizontal mounting: 80 degrees wide read coverage. In some applications a vertical installation is required to make use of the smaller beam width in the vertical plane. The vertical beam is 40 degrees. This can be very useful in applications with multiple driving lanes to prevent cross readings. Vertical mounting: 40 degrees narrow read coverage. The Wall Mounting Set, which make rotation in the vertical and horizontal plane possible, is standard included with every TRANSIT Ultimate.

TRANSIT ULTIMATE | INSTALLATION GUIDE CONFIGURATION 24/36 4. CONFIGURATION 4.1 FIRMWARE OPTIONS The TRANSIT Ultimate supports the same firmware versions as the TRANSIT Standard. Different firmware versions are available to support different features and communication protocols. For each firmware version a separate installation guide is available. Switches SW1-1 to SW1-8 are used to select various options within the actual loaded firmware. They can be used for example to select the serial baud rate, wiegand output options, etc. Refer to the specific firmware manual for details. The firmware can be changed or updated using the TRANSIT Firmware Upgrade software tool. Make sure that the serial communication select switch is set to TRANSIT (PIC). See chapter 4.2. Figure 19: TRANSIT Firmware Upgrade Utility 4.2 SERIAL COMMUNICATION SELECT By default the USB or communication interface board connections will allow communication with the TRANSIT processor (PIC). The communication protocol is determined by the TRANSIT firmware. See also chapter 4.1 above. The USB or communication interface board connections can also be used to communicate with the processor located on the TAB board. This is for test purposes and will not further be explained in this manual.

TRANSIT ULTIMATE | INSTALLATION GUIDE CONFIGURATION 26/36 4.5 FREQUENCY SELECTION The TRANSIT Ultimate reader operates in the 2.45GHz ISM frequency band. When two or more readers are within a range of 15 meters (50 feet), these readers should be set on a different operating frequency. It may also be required to select a different frequency to avoid disturbance between the TRANSIT Ultimate and other 2.45GHz equipment, such as Wi-Fi access points. Please also read chapter 4.7 when experiencing interference. The frequency channel is selected on the transceiver board which is located in the front cover of the reader. Select the frequency channel using a display & push-buttons (see chapter 4.5.1) or using dip-switches (see chapter 4.5.2). Note: the TAB board uses 2 frequency channels in the 433 MHz band, which cannot be changed. 4.5.1 FREQUENCY SELECT DISPLAY & BUTTONS Only for TRANSIT Ultimate FCC ID: CGDTRANSITULT2 (IC: 1444A-TRANSITULT2) Press the RST button to activate the display.

TRANSIT ULTIMATE | INSTALLATION GUIDE CONFIGURATION 27/36 4.6 READ RANGE CONTROL The read range of the TRANSIT Ultimate can be controlled with the embedded squelch function. The squelch references the received signal strength against the squelch level setting. When the received signal strength is below the squelch level no identification is possible. The received signal strength becomes higher when the transponder comes closer to the reader. When the received signal strength exceeds the squelch level the transponder will be identified. Distance Received signal strength 0 m 5 mmax read range for this level squelch level setting Tag signal < squelch level: no read Tag signal > squelch level: read Squelch level Tag signal Figure 20: Squelch principle Adjustment of the read range is done by enabling the squelch and setting the squelch level with its potentiometer. To achieve the maximum read range, disable the squelch function completely with the enable/disable squelch switch. Two LEDs indicate the status of the squelch. When the squelch is enabled LED SQ-ENA will be on. LED SQ-ACT is on when the transponder signal is below the squelch level (red area in Figure 20). In chapter 5 all LED indicators are described.

TRANSIT ULTIMATE | INSTALLATION GUIDE CONFIGURATION 28/36 4.7 MICROWAVE TIME-SHARING The microwave antenna of the TRANSIT Ultimate is continuously on. This will ensure the fastest identification times. However it may cause interference on other 2.45GHz equipment. Enable the microwave time-share mode to only use the selected frequency periodically (the reader automatically switches on and off). During the periods that the TRANSIT reader is off, other equipment can use the same frequency undisturbed. The reader will be on for 300 milliseconds, which is long enough for a reliable identification of a tag. The off-time is between 0.5 and 5 seconds. This is configurable with the TX-PER potentiometer.
