10BINTRODUCTION

The Prox-Booster, Smartcard-Booster and Transition-Booster are dual ID tags enabling simultaneous

identification of the inserted personal ID card and the embedded vehicle ID resulting in rapid driver and vehicle

monitoring. The Prox-Booster tacho additionally sends the tacho-counter value, which relates to the travelled

distance of the vehicle.

The Booster allows an inserted Proximity or Smartcard driver ID card and embedded vehicle ID to be read from a

distance up to 10 meters (33 feet) in combination with NEDAP TRANSIT readers. This solution substantially

enhances the level of security when controlling activities of vehicles that are regularly used by different drivers.

Additionally a fully integrated vehicle and personnel access solution can be implemented.

For more details about the NEDAP TRANSIT reader refer to the TRANSIT installation guide.

The combined vehicle and driver ID is a unique NEDAP patented feature. Optionally the vehicle-ID can be

sacrificed if more information from the personal ID card is required.

The following personal ID card types are identified with the Boosters.

Prox-Booster (tacho) NEDAP, EM and HID PROX

Smartcard-Booster MIFARE (incl. DESFIRE EV1), HID iCLASS, ISO14443A, ISO15693 and Calypso.

INSTALLATION

2.1

DIMENSIONS

The Boosters are easily mounted to the inside of the car’s windshield by means of suction cups. Users should

ensure the visual contact between the Booster and any TRANSIT reader is unobstructed with items such as

stickers or metallized windshields (see also chapter 2.3 about solar control windshields).

Note that the Booster's suction cups must be faced toward the reader to achieve maximum reading distance.

TEMPERATURE CONSIDERATIONS

The Booster is designed to operate within the extreme temperature ranges, which often occur behind a vehicle’s

windshield during the winter or summer seasons (-20°C to 85°C / -4°F to +185°F). However the personal

identification card inserted in the Booster may not be designed to withstand such temperatures and could suffer

damage as a result.

Nedap recommends to remove the personal identification card when not in use.

CAUTION: DO NOT LEAVE CARD IN ACCESS DEVICE WHEN LEAVING THE VEHICLE, AS THIS PRESENTS A SECURITY

RISK.

CAUTION: DO NOT LEAVE CARD IN ACCESS DEVICE FOR LONG PERIODS OF TIME IN EXTREME HEAT, AS THIS MAY

DAMAGE THE CARD.

2.3

SOLAR CONTROL WINDSHIELDS

From 1997 onwards several car manufacturers introduced vehicles with solar control windshields. The solar

control windshields are equipped with a metalized coating, which can block the TRANSIT signal from the

Booster mounted on the inside of the windshield of the vehicle.

Most of these windshields have a metal free zone where transponders can be mounted. The metal free zone of

metalized windshields is most often found in the middle of the windshield behind and slightly below the rear

view mirror. In vehicles manufactured after 1998 the metal free zone should be indicated on the window.

We advise the owner to contact the local car dealer if it is not clear where the aperture is exactly positioned in a

certain vehicle and where the transponder should be mounted.

BOOSTERS 2G

2.4 10BPROX-BOOSTER TACHO

The prox-booster tacho is a special booster version that should be wired to the speed pulse generator of your

vehicle. The exact wiring details and connection location very much depend upon the brand, type and model of

your vehicle. Contact your vehicle dealer for more information about the speed pulse generator in your vehicle.

Tacho input specifications:

Input voltage: 6V to 24V (max. 30V).

Polarity reversal tolerant.

Input prescaler 1:256.

Maximum pulse frequency 850Hz.

Maximum vehicle speed 255km/h (at 12 pulses/meter).

32BIDENTIFYING THE BOOSTER WITH A TRANSIT

3.1 11BHOW TO USE THE BOOSTER

Place the Booster on the inside of the windscreen of your vehicle as described in chapter 2.

The driver inserts his personal identification card and activates the Booster’s button.

A beep should indicate that the card was successfully read. A low beep indicates that card reading failed3TP0F



P3T.

The TRANSIT reader can identify your card up to a distance of 10 meters (=33 ft).

After 5 seconds the Booster returns into sleep mode. The booster will remain active when in 'always-on'-mode.

The driver should remove his personal identification card from the Booster when leaving the vehicle.

3.2 12BREADER OUTPUT BOOSTER INFO

The Prox/Smartcard-Booster is a battery operated passive tag. The information from the tag is sent to the reader

by a method called modulated backscatter. This means that the 2.45GHz signal coming from the reader's

antenna is modified in such way that it can be recognized by the reader.

The examples below assume that a TRANSIT PS270 reader with P81 firmware is used and show the messages

transmitted on the RS-232 interface to a host system (TXD). Refer to the TRANSIT firmware manuals for more

details about the reader communication protocol.

Combi-Booster mode (Vehicle-ID + Driver-ID)

The Booster cannot be identified until the driver inserts his personal identification card and pushes the Booster’s

button. Once the button is pushed the Booster reads the personal identification card and beepsP

43BSMARTCARD CONFIGURATION

The Smartcard-Booster and the Transition-Booster can be configured by means of a configuration card. This

configuration card is a Mifare Classic 1K or 4K card that is programmed with the configuration settings.

Configuration is only required if the factory default settings are not sufficient. The default settings are described

in chapter 4.2.3.

4.1 14BCONFIGURATION PROCEDURE

Every Booster used in the application should be configured with the configuration card. The simple

configuration procedure is described below.

Insert the configuration card in the Booster and push the button. The Booster sounds the buzzer with an

increasing frequency (♪♪♪) to indicate that the configuration card is accepted3TP1F

4.2 15BHOW TO CREATE A CONFIGURATION CARD

NEDAP has developed a software application that allows system integrators to create configuration cards. This

software can be downloaded from our website 1TUwww.nedapavi.comU1T.

4.2.2 20BCREATION PROCEDURE

Follow the procedure below to create a configuration card with application specific settings.

1. Specify OPERATING MODE (see chapter 4.2.2.1)

2. Specify FRAME LENGTH (see chapter 4.2.2.2)

3. Specify ACTIVE_MODE (see chapter 4.2.2.3)

4. Specify RFID CONFIGURATION settings (see chapter 4.2.2.4)

5. Save the configuration settings into a file.

6. Write the configuration into a blank Mifare Classic 1K or 4K card.

4.2.2.1 24BOPERATING MODE

Booster (only Driver-ID)

Up to 16 bytes of data from the personal identification card is read. The Vehicle-ID is omitted.

Combi-Booster (Vehicle-ID + Driver-ID)

Vehicle-ID combined with up to 11 bytes from the personal identification card is read.

Tacho-Booster (Vehicle-ID + Driver-ID + Tacho-Counter)

Vehicle-ID and Driver-ID combined with Tacho-Counter value. If this option is selected than automatically

extended-length is selected.

4.2.2.2 25BFRAME LENGTH

This affects the length of the message sent to TRANSIT reader.

Extended length (longer Driver-ID)

Select extended-length in order to support all transponder types and maximum amount of data. The

extended-length may be not compatible with older firmware versions in the TRANSIT reader. You might

need to upload new firmware into the reader.

The identification speed is a bit slower compared to applying standard-length.

Standard length (backwards compatible, faster identification)

Select standard-length in applications where compatibility with older types of transponders or where fast

identification is important.

Please note that when reading low-frequency cards with a Transition-Booster this setting is not used.

For NEDAP and EM cards the extended-length is not required and therefore the Booster will automatically use

standard-length (even if extended-length is selected in the configuration).

For HID PROX the extended-length is required so extended-length is used automatically if such a card is

identified (even if standard-length is selected in the configuration).

BOOSTERS 2G

4.2.2.3 26BACTIVE MODE

Two activation modes are possible: Switched or Always-on.

The setting can only be changed when the Booster originally was in switched mode !!!

Switched mode is selected when the operating mode is Booster (only Driver-ID).

Switched mode (active for approx. 5 seconds)

In switched mode the booster is active for approx. 5 seconds after the booster's button is pushed and

then autmatically returns into sleep mode.

Always-on (continuously active)

In always-on mode the booster remains active. When the booster's button is pushed the booster will read

the inserted card. If a card is identified, the booster will check every few minutes if the inserted card is still

present.

4.2.2.4 27BRFID CONFIGURATION

ISO14443-A / MIFARE

Enable or disable the reading of ISO14443-A / MIFARE cards.
