WARNING - This product should be installed by personnel trained in installation of
equipment in industrial environments and meet the representative country’s
National Electrical Code.
Electrostatic Discharge
This product contains components that are sensitive to electrostatic discharges. Please observe
the special instructions for their protection. Incorrect handling can damage the unit and cause
the invalidation of the warranty.
Minimum safety precautions against electrostatic discharge:
Establish earth contact before you touch the unit. (For example, touch the earthing screw on the unit.) Best
practice is to use an antistatic ribbon and earth yourself permanently for the time you handle the unit.
Avoid unnecessary contact with the unit connectors and assemblies inside the unit.
Only open the unit if the operational settings (as described in the manual) expressly requires it.
Use antistatic tools for the setting of the unit. (Warning: Do not touch life-threatening voltages with these tools).
Do not store unit and components without protective packaging.
Remove unit and components from the packaging only prior to installation.
These notes are not sufficient to guarantee complete protection from electrostatic discharges! We
recommend the use of suitable protective equipment.
IDENTEC SOLUTIONS does not accept the return of products where the regulations concerning the ESD
precautions and protective packaging materials were not followed.

Safety Instructions
The equipment can be installed in restricted areas.
The system described in this manual is for exclusive operation of trained employees. Only qualified personnel that
have knowledge of the potential dangers involved should perform the installation, settings, maintenance and repair
of the units used.
Operational Safety
The correct and safe use of these systems assumes that operating and service personnel follow the safety
measures described in the manual alongside the generally acceptable safety procedures.
If there is a possibility that safe operations cannot be guaranteed, the system must be switched off, secured against
accidental use and the service unit responsible immediately informed.
Safety Documents
The iPOINT was designed, tested and supplied in perfect condition, according to document IEC/EN 60950-1 Safety
Requirements.
Condensate / Change of Temperature
To avoid condensation in the system, the unit must be allowed to slowly adjust itself to warmer temperatures after
removal from cold and cool environments.
Do not open the Main housing
The Connection Chamber can be opened for required cabling needs, but there is no need to open the main
housing (crews from bottom side) in order to set the iPOINT unit. The unit does not have any internal setting
elements or displays.
Connections / Power Supply
The supply circuits must comply with the conditions set out for the SELV circuits (see EN 60950-1).
The signal circuits must comply with the conditions set out for the SELV circuits (see EN 60950-1).
Use shielded cables for the Ethernet/PoE & RS422 cables. This is the only way to achieve the prescribed EMC.
During maintenance damage could occur if printed circuit boards or cables are connected or disconnected whilst
the power supply is still on. Therefore, only work on the connection and the components when they are not live.
Spare Parts
We recommend that only personnel, original products, spare and replacement parts authorized by IDENTEC
SOLUTIONS be used for installation, service and repair. IDENTEC SOLUTIONS does not accept any responsibility
for materials used, work carried out or possible consequences from unauthorized third party vendors.

2. Introduction
2.1 iPOINT and System Description
The iPOINT device provides a functional combination of: The “zone location” system of an i-MARK, the long-range
Reader functionality of an i-PORT as well as close proximity NFC functionality, encased in an attractive, rugged,
IP67 housing.
The Housing contains:
- 5 Status LEDs (see Section 3.1)
- a Connection Chamber where the wired interfaces can be accessed
- Relevant cable glands, as wired access points, depending on the device setup
- Mounting Plate and securing screw (see Section 4)
For a detailed description of how to correctly open the connection chamber and other mechanical information,
please refer to Section 4.1.
The iPOINT can used as a standalone device or in a daisychain of devices. See Section 2.3 for more details.
Following is a description of the wireless technologies that are available within the iPOINT Device.

2.1.1 UHF Interface
The UHF interface is a wireless communication interface using the UHF ISM frequency band and IDENTEC’s
protocols.
The iPOINT X has two internal UHF antennas built in and can communicate up to a range of 500 meters with its
Tags.
The main benefit of two antennas is the elimination of RF dead spots in static systems.
2.1.2 LF Interface
The LF Interface uses IDENTEC’s LFBOOST Marker technology. Zone location at Low Frequency can be achieved
with a configurable field range up to 5 Meters. This allows Tag detection in a specific area.

2.1.3 NFC Interface
The NFC Interface is a Near Field Communication interface. The iPOINT can be used as an entry terminal or for
other NFC communication. The range to the Tag is around 10-15cm and is compatible with the i-Q355 Series of
Tags as well as standard NFC cards.
