1 Introduction
1.1 Functions
1.1.1 Working principle
Transmitter Solutions DOLCWIUHFP directs the RF module to generate an RF signal, which is broadcast through the internal antenna. Entering the Transmitter Solutions DOLCWIUHFP s reading range, a Transmitter Solutions RFID tag installed on a vehicle or other object to be tracked adds its programmed identification information to the signal and reflects the signal back to the Transmitter Solutions DOLCWIUHFP . The Transmitter Solutions DOLCWIUHFP receives this modified or modulated signal, and decodes the tag data carried by the reflected signal and transmits this data to a local host computer or process through specified the communication port.
1.1.2 Working Mode
has two working mode. one is Interval Scan Mode ,In this mode ,if reader Power on ,it will scan the tag intermittently The other mode is Trigger Mode, in this mode, only if the voltage of the Trigger Pin is logic 0,the reader begins to scan the tag automatically.
When reader enters into the scanning status, it will capture the programmed identification information of the tags which within DOLCWIUHFP s read range automatically, and transmits the data to a local host computer or process through the specified communication interface ( Wiegand 26/34, RS232 or RS485).
The default working mode of Transmitter Solutions DOLCWIUHFP is Interval Scan Mode and specified Wiegand 26 as the communication interface. if need preconfigured to Trigger Mode or other communication interface, please consult with the Transmitter Solutions before purchasing.

Remark: 1. The SN label is the identification of each reader, don t tear off during using. 2. Please check the interface configuration with the Interface Label, if not correct, please contact with Transmitter Solutions. 3. Don t install two hosts with the same Capital Letter Label within 20 meters scope. 4. Trigger Pins reserved for Trigger Mode only.
1.3 Cautions before Using
1. Please use the 12V 4A DC Power for connecting the host with the power. 2. If the DC Power is not waterproof, it is suggested to insert into the Ticket Box or be covered. 3. The power cord which connected DC Power and the 120V AC Power needs to be connected the ground wire to prevent lightning strikes. 4. When extending power:
· Up to 100 feet, use 18 AWG, 600 volt insulated wire · Up to 200 feet, use 16 AWG, 600 volt insulated wire
THE PROPER WIRING IS CRITICAL! 5. Wiegand wire runs are 500 feet maxium. Use 6-conductor stranded wire with overall shield. 18, 20, 22 or 24 gauge is preferred.

User Manual of DOLCWIUHFP When the site meets following conditions, we suggest choosing the Overhead Installation way, otherwise choosing the Side Installation way: 1. There are many types of car, especially with both large vehicle and small car; 2. The position of the tag is different from different type of vehicles; 3. The drive position is available for both left and right side
2.3 Side Installation
2.3.1 Overview
Take a simple parking lot for example: the width of the lane is 3.5 M, while the distance between Gate and Ticket Box is 5 M. The reader is expected to be placed to allow time for the gate to open so the car can roll through without stopping while not allowing room for an untagged car to be between the car being read and the gate. There 2 opinions position for installing Reader, for the details please refer to the Figure 2.3.1-1

3.2.1.2 Installation for Tags For the vehicles without metalized windshield, you can choose one of six places showed on
the figure 3.2.1-1 to install For the vehicles with the pre-configured metalized windshield, it should have a reserved area
with 120(L) * 70(W) mm that not metalized for RFID tags according to the European Standard, usually in the place B, so you can install the tag on this reserved area.
For the vehicles with the after-sale metalized windshield, you can choose one of six places showed on figure 3.2.1-1 to cut off the metallic coat with a 120(L) * 70(W) mm area
For optimum performance, choose the placement A or E if the antenna of the reader in the left position of the windshield; choose the placement C or D if the antenna in the right position of the windshield; while choose placement B or F if the antenna in the overhead of the traffic lane.

Appendix 1 How to check the performance simply?
Purpose: When a malfunction occurs during the using, the follow steps will help you to check the performance of the reader simply. 1. Test Sites: Open area without any barrier or block. 2. Reader Install Height: Over 2 Meter and power the reader with Power Adapter & Power Code enclosed the package. 3. Test Tag: use the tag enclosed the package 4. Tag Install: by hand, use the correct way as figure 3.2-3 5. Test Method: Keep the front surface of the tag parallel to the front surface of the reader. Move the tag from the near to the distant by the horizontal line (see as the figure Appendix-1) until the tag can not be detected by the reader. The line distance between the reader and the tag is the MAX Distance. 6: When the MAX Distance is over 9 meters, and the reading signal of the reader is stable & continuous, the read performance of the reader is OK.
