1. Safety Instructions / Warning - Read before start-up !
•The device may only be used for the intended purpose designed by for the manufacturer.
•The operation manual should be conveniently kept available at all times for each user.
•Unauthorized changes and the use of spare parts and additional devices which have not been
sold or recommended by the manufacturer may cause fire, electric shocks or injuries. Such
unauthorized measures shall exclude any liability by the manufacturer.
•The liability-prescriptions of the manufacturer in the issue valid at the time of purchase are valid
for the device. The manufacturer shall not be held legally responsible for inaccuracies, errors,
or omissions in the manual or automatically set parameters for a device or for an incorrect
application of a device.
•Repairs may only be executed by the manufacturer.
•Installation, operation, and maintenance procedures should only be carried out by qualified
personnel.
•Use of the device and its installation must be in accordance with national legal requirements
and local electrical codes .
•When working on devices the valid safety regulations must be observed.

2. Introduction
The software package Smartshelf Demo consists of two programs.
The first program is called Smartshelf. This program is an executable binary file for the i-scan
Readers ID ISC.LR2000 and ID ISC.LRU2000.
This program was developed as an example for registering and managing the current stock of a
warehouse. For instance an possible application is to check the availability of a product, or the
availability of books in a library.
With this program it is possible to use up to 512 antennas with max. 73 multiplexers of type ID
ISC.ANT.MUX for Reader ID ISC.LR2000 or ID ISC.ANT.UMUX for Reader ID ISC.LRU2000.
The program makes inventory commands and if there is a transponder in field it inserts this trans-
ponder with its attributes into a taglist. Furthermore there is a notification function implemented
which generates status messages if a transponder is detected or lost. The application then sends a
message to the client side Windows program called SmartShelfDemo, which is the second pro-
gram. SmartShelfDemo let’s you also change reader settings, i.e. the number of antennas and the
threshold.
The number of antennas value is (obviously) how many antennas are connected. You need to set
the number of antennas only if you use the HF-Reader ID ISC.LR2000, because it can not detect
antennas automatically. Threshold means how often a transponder could not respond until it will be
deleted from the taglist (the reader will then send a “LOST” notification). There is even a possibility
to connect FEIG’s demo application ISOSTART to change the configuration of the reader. In this
case the protocols are forwarded to the reader and the received protocols are returned to
ISOSTART.
With the SmartshelfDemo program it is possible to show the complete contents of the taglist from
the embedded program Smartshelf. Event messages are received when there is a new trans-
ponder in field or a transponder was lost. The messages are sent as standard XML documents.

3. Installation
The embedded Smartshelf function is realized inside the Application Connectivity Controller
(ACC) of the reader. Thus, only the ACC must be updated with the firmware version 1.09.00. This
can be done with the OBIDFirmwareUpdateTool and it is recommended to use the ethernet con-
nection.
After the firmware update, the ACC reboots and the Smartshelf application is started 5 seconds
later. The green LED V6 signals a running ACC, the orange LED V3 signals communication ac-
tions between ACC and RFC and the blue LED V2 signals RF communication with tags.
The Smartshelf function is initialized for 3 antennas. This can be changed with the Windows appli-
cation SmartShelfDemo. For all other settings use ISOStart.
The Windows application SmartShelfDemo consists of three files (SmartShelfDemo.exe, Smart-
ShelfDemo.ini and FETCP.DLL) and can be copied to any directory of the target PC.

4. Settings
4.1 ISC.ANT.MUX / ISC.ANT.UMUX Configuration
For detailed information see M30201-xde-ID-B.doc for ID ISC.ANT.MUX or M71100-xde-ID-B.doc
for ID ISC.ANT.UMUX
4.2 SmartShelfDemo
After the first start of the program some settings for the smartshelf reader must be executed. Press
the button ‘Settings...’ and open the settings dialog. With this dialog, the smartshelf reader can be
configured.
After configuring, the handling of smartshelf notifications are enabled with the button ‘Start’.

•Threshold must be a value between 0...255. The threshold is for lost notifications. A 5 means,
that a tag is five times re-read after absent until a lost notification is sent. The re-read is real-
ized with a Read Multiple Blocks command and costs approximately 30ms.
•No. of antennas must be a value between 1...512. The no. of antennas is needed only if the
HF-Reader ID ISC.LR2000 is used. The combination of UHF-Reader ID ISC.LRU2000 and ID
ISC.ANT.UMUX multiplexers can detect multiplexers and connected antennas automatically.
•IP is the IP address of the reader. The addressed port is set to 10005, because it is fix.
•The button ‘Set reader configuration’ establish a connection to the reader, transfers the pa-
rameters and close the connection. The reader saves the parameters in its EEPROM and re-
boots, if the number of antenna is changed. When only the lost threshold is changed, then no
reboot is executed.
By pressing the button „Get List“ all transponders which are currently in field will be displayed.
