1. Introduction

The Contactless Product consists of PCD module, also known as SIRIUS contactless reader SR128, integrated with a 7″ LCD display. The PCD module uses the latest NXP front end NFC IC PN5190 for improved RF performance to meet latest EMVCo L1 and L2 VISA/MasterCard specifications. Its antenna is integrated around the PID making the display as the touch point for validating the Fare Media.

This document aims to describe how to operate the Contactless Product and the connectivity of the reader to the host.

4. Reader Connection

The SR128 reader interfaces with the host via the 10pin serial and power connection when operating host-reader configuration.

STYL SR128 - Reader Connection 1

In PCSC/CCID mode, the host can connect to the reader using the USB-C2 interface. The reader will present itself as a standard PCSC reader to the Operating System.

6. Operational Precautions
6.1. General Safety Instructions

The SR128 reader contains ESD sensitive components. When handling with the device, avoid in contact with components especially the ICs on the boards. The operating voltage of the SR128 reader has 12VDC. The 10pin connector accepts 12VDC. Operating the SR128 reader other than the rated voltage will experience performance deterioration or damage the reader.

6.2. Installation

The SR128 Reader uses inductive coupling to communicate with contactless cards. Therefore, the reader is highly sensitive to ferrous or non-ferrous metal alike. Installation near to metal may affect operating distance. It is important to keep a comfortable distance away these metal surfaces for optimum performance.

6.3. Reader Status Indicators

There are LED indicators and DC Buzzer located on Reader module APP/SAM boards for various Reader status indicators.

6.4. Battery Safety Information

CAUTION
RISK OF EXPLOSION IF BATTERY IS REPLACED BY AN INCORRECT TYPE.
DISPOSE OF USED BATTERIES ACCORDING TO THE INSTRUCTIONS

a. Use only CR1220, BATTERY LITHIUM COIN 3V 20MM. Observe the following guidelines for safe use of Li Ion batteries.
b. Do not expose the battery to excessive heat or cold. Do not short-circuit. It may explode.
c. To avoid risk of fire, burn or damage to your battery, do not allow a metal object to touch battery contacts.
d. Do not disassemble the battery. There are no user serviceable parts inside.
e. If battery leakage is observed, avoid any contact with affected area and properly dispose of the battery.
f. If you come in contact with battery leakage, rinse exposed area with soap and water. If it contacts the eye, flush the eye with water for 15 minutes and seek medical attention.
g. When discarding a battery, contact your local waste disposal provider to understand local restrictions for disposal or recycling of batteries.

6.5. Fuse Information

This product contains Fuses in its circuit. The Fuse part numbers are 1206L150/12SLYR; PTC RESET FUSE 12V 1.5A 1206 (Littelfuse).

7. FCC Compliance Statement

This device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.
Note: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the 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 to which the receiver is connected.
  • Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

Important: Caution: Any changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance to this equipment would void the user’s authority to operate this device.
