Check the TUNING LED, green is OK and means the antenna is correctly tuned. When the green LED is not ON the antenna must be tuned.  Antenna tuning 1.  Turn the trimmer on the antenna until the green LED is ON See also the manual of the antenna being used for information about tuning       Green on Antenna tuning ok      Red on Antenna out of range, turn the trimmer to the right until green LED is on      Red on Antenna out of range, turn the trimmer to the left until green LED is on      Red blinking No antenna connected or low antenna signal      All off Antenna switch off by the software  If there is no antenna LED on, the software has set the antenna field off. For tuning set the antenna in ID test mode by using the display/push button (see also appendix C).
   VP1006-200PM-00 OEM ISO Reader Manual version 2.6 / Page 7   5.5  Antenna tuning with EWA antenna transformer In case a stainless steel loop antenna is used.  Jumper position in the EWA Measure the circumference of the antenna-loop. Set jumpers to the combination as described in the table on Antenna-Transformer PCB. Note that the highest possible number should be chosen.  EWA connection to the VP1006  9 : 1 11 : 1 13 : 1 15 : 1  Use connection 9 :1 to start  Tuning Use a plastic screw driver to tune. Tune the coil inside the EWA until the green LED of the antenna tuning is on. When green the antenna tuning is ok. See also instructions on previous page. When it is not possible to get a green LED use another connection and try again.   5.6  Software setup The software in the connected controller determines how the inputs and outputs on the VP1006 are controlled. See manual with the relevant settings to configure the software for this VP1006. When the software setup is done the VP1006 is ready for use.
   VP1006-200PM-00 OEM ISO Reader Manual version 2.6 / Page 8   6  Advanced Tests and adjustments described in this chapter are not used for a standard startup and configuration of the VP1006.  6.1  Testing inputs and outputs There are two types of output tests. An output test to switch the output on and off, and an output test especially for Nedap feed motors. There is also available an input test for checking connected equipment like switches and sensors. Use the display and push button for testing, see appendix B how to use it. Feed motor test Use the motor test o1, o2, o3 or o4 to test a feed motor.  This is a combination of an input and output test. When the test is finished the test results are shown as code on the display (blinking). Test all outputs ”0A” will test all outputs one by one.       Code on the display Description motor test results  00 Motor run ok  01 Output already in use  02 No motor current measured  03 No input signal seen  04 -  05 -  06 Motor current too high for too long  07 -  08 Current still measured after test has stopped  09 Output voltage is stopped due to motor safeguard function  10 Output already in use  11 -  12 Motor current too low while running    Example of a feed motor test (connected to output 1) 1.  Short press on the button until “It” appears.  2.  Now hold the button until the display starts blinking. “dE” will appear. 3.  Short press on the button 2 times. “o1” will appear. 4.

Example of a light test (connected to output 6) 1.  Short press on the button until “It” appears.  2.  Now hold the button until the display starts blinking. “dE” will appear. 3.  Short press on the button until “L6” appears. 4.  Now hold the button until the display starts blinking. Output 6 will be switched on. To switch off, a short press on the button.  Input test Use the test i1, i2, .. i6 to test the connected equipment e.g. switches and sensors. This test will read the selected input. The results are indicated with a “0” or “1”. Open or closed depends on the settings from the behavior component. The test is stopped by a short press on the button. Example of a switch test (connected to output 5) 1.  Short press on the button until “It” appears.  2.  Now hold the button till the display starts blinking. “dE” will appear. 3.  Short press on the button until “i5” appears. 4.  Now hold the button until the display starts blinking. Input 5 will be read. 5.  Activate the switch on and off. If ok, the display value will show zero and one
   VP1006-200PM-00 OEM ISO Reader Manual version 2.6 / Page 9   6.2  Advanced antenna adjustment  Antenna power The antenna power default is set to maximum (99) and needs no adjustments. Lowering the antenna power will reduce the reading distance of the antenna.  Check the antenna power The antenna power level is shown on the display in the service menu at HF option AP (Adjust Power) 1.  Select menu option AP (Adjust Power) on the display by using the push button 2.  Push the button until the display starts to blink, a value will appear on the display 3.  The value on the display is the actual power setting. 99 is the default factory setting. 4.  To leave the menu without modifying the settings press the button until the display goes blank (press about 4 seconds)  Modify the antenna power 1.  Select the actual antenna power on the display (see above antenna power check) 2.  Short press on the button and the first digit of the value will change  3.  Continue to press until the desired value, then hold the button until blinking 4.  The second digit can be changed in the same way 5.  When the desired value is on the display, press until the display blinks 6.  The next menu item AS is now indicated. 7.  To leave the service menu and return to normal operation, press the button until the display goes blank (press about 4 seconds)   Antenna squelch Antenna squelch is a possibility to set a threshold for the ID level of a tag. It means the antenna power is still the same, but the software will not transfer weak received tag numbers. The antenna squelch default is set to minimum (-0). This means no threshold. Maximum is -9.  Check the antenna squelch level The antenna squelch level is shown on the display in the service menu at HF, option AS (Adjust Squelch) 1.  Select menu option AS (Adjust Squelch) on the display by using the push button 2.  Push the button until the display starts to blink, a value will appear on the display 3.  The value on the display is the actual setting. -0 is the default factory setting. 4.  To leave the menu without modifying the settings press the button until the display goes blank (press about 4 seconds)  Modify the antenna squelch level 1.  Select the actual antenna squelch level on the display (see above squelch level check) 2.  Short press on the button and the value will change  3.  Continue to press until the desired value, then hold the button until blinking 4.  The next menu item “df” is now indicated. 5.  Hold a tag in the antenna and determine the maximum reading distance 6.  If reading distance is ok leave the menu. If not ok try another level. 7.  To leave the service menu and return to normal operation, press the button until the display goes blank (press about 4 seconds)
   VP1006-200PM-00 OEM ISO Reader Manual version 2.6 / Page 10   Antenna tuning with option “AA” With HF menu option “Adjust Antenna (AA)”, it is possible to see the antenna tuning on the display. The highest display value is the optimum adjustment.  How to tune 1.  Select option “AA” on the display and press the button until the display starts to blink. A value will now appear on the display. 2.  Now turn the antenna trimmer slowly (on the antenna). The display value will change. If the value is going down, turn the other way. Turn till the maximum display value is found.  Neutrodynisation between two antennas Two large antennas can have coupling with antenna fields. Result : tag is identified in both antennas. A solution is to install a neutrodynisation unit to reduce cross talk caused by antenna coupling.  How to tune 1.  Set reader A in neutro transmit mode (HF menu option nc - nt).  2.  Set reader B in neutro receive mode (HF menu option nc - nr) 3.  Turn the wheels apart to the highest display value at reader B The display value and wheel distance apart can vary. Low display value means usually low coupling. Always use a sync cable between the readers. It is used during normal operation and also used for the tuning to switch of transmitter of the receive unit. If one unit is set to neutro transmit, it will switch off all other readers connected to the same sync cable.  Antenna tuning visible by a light With HF menu option “Adjust Antenna (AA)” output 6 is also switched on. By connecting a light to output 6 the status during tuning can be monitored. When the light is blinking it is indicating the optimum adjustment point and is corresponding with the highest display value.     6.3  Identification test options  Identification test with option “id” When a tag is in the antenna field, the green LED used for the antenna tuning will be blinking. There is also a test in the internal test menu called “id”. This test will also show the green LED blinking but also shows the last two digits of the tag number on the display.     Signal level indication option “SF” and “SH” There is a test available to give an indication about the signal received on the reader of the VP1006. This test is separated in a FDX (SF) and HDX (SH) noise indication test. This test is mainly used for HDX because at HDX there is a greater risk of external influence on the antenna field.  How to use the signal level test 1. Select option “SH” on the display and press the button until the display starts to blink. A value will appear on the display.  2.  Now move a HDX tag slowly into the antenna field. The display value will normally increase when getting closer to the antenna. If there is negligible or little increase in display value this is an indication something external is causing noise.  The possible cause of  noise can be frequency controlled electric motors or a transmitter operating on or close to 134.2 kHz
   VP1006-200PM-00 OEM ISO Reader Manual version 2.6 / Page 11   7  Trouble shooting Errors / malfunctioning is indicated by the indicator LED’s or the display.  Error by indicator LED Indicator LED’s are normally green or switched off. A red or orange indicator LED means normally there is something not ok. See Appendix D for the explanation of the different colors.  Errors indicated at menu option “dE” In menu option “dE” it is possible to see actual error codes. When entering the display menu option “dE” the errors code will be shown and the error will be cleared. If the error is not cleared it means there is still an error. There can be more than one error. Further errors are displayed one after another with a short delay between each code.   “dE” code on the display Description  00 No errors  01 Max time for motor exceeded   02 Max motor current error  03 -  04 -  05 Outputs switched off due to high motor current  06 Software switched off due to current and time  07 Output switched off due to current, time and also output active  08 Input of motor output seen X times while motor is not active  09 Motor 1 error  10 Motor 2 error  11 Motor 3 error  12 Motor 4 error  13 Vout overload  14 Output 5 shut off due to overload  15 Output 6 shut off due to overload  16 Software switched off due to max current and time  17 CAN–bus over voltage  18 Voltage to next module switched off  Identification performance and disturbance  Identification performance can be reduced by disturbance caused by variable-frequency drives used for ventilation, milk pumps, vacuum pumps, etc. Also ballasts used for fluorescent tube lighting may interfere. If there is interference one can locate the source by switching off all the equipment on a farm and then switch them on again one by one. Most of the time when a variable-frequency drive is causing a problem it is due to bad installation or without the mandatory main filters. 8  Maintenance, cleaning and disposal  Maintenance No regular maintenance required.  Software update A VP1006 is equipped with software to activate inputs and outputs, display / push button and a motor safeguard. This software is called firmware. During manufacturing the firmware is programmed and ready for use. In case of an update it is possible to download new firmware thru the CAN-bus. In the Velos system the web browser interface of the VPU (VP8001) is used to handle this. For more details about downloading new firmware see also the manual of the VPU (VP8001).  Cleaning A VP1006 must be installed in a suitable housing (V-box) so cleaning of the VP1006 is not required.  Disposal Discard according to the regulations prevailing at the time of disposal
