RF 2.4GHz Link and Planar
Antenna
• The RF emitter is built into the trolley CPU and
the receiver into the PowerRail (see PowerRail
section).
• This RF system has five channels to address
potential interference with other 2.4GHz devices
such as bar code scanners.
• The trolley also supports 5.8GHz. The optional
5.8GHz antenna kit is for use in countries that
authorize this frequency.
PowerRail
The PowerRail module:
• Provides power and data to the rail
• Supports power conversion from 90-240Vac
50/60HZ to 24Vdc/5A
• Supports data conversion from RS-422 to RS-
232
• Includes the RF video link receiver and planar
receiving antenna
• Direct connection through the DB29 plug
enables product configuration and
troubleshooting, using a laptop and AD
SensorRail Control software
• Main power connection is through an IEC
connector that includes an AC filter
• Data connects through a standard 4-position
terminal (RS-422) and a 3-position terminal
(RS-232).
Vision Area, Dead Zone, and
Maintenance Area
Vision Area: Is the area in which the trolley will be
able to move. It is equal to the total length of the
rail minus the “dead zones”.
Dead Zone: Is the 1.5m (5ft) zone at each end of
the rail. This zone allows the trolley to safely stop
in case of a positioning management system
failure.
Maintenance Area: Is the 0.6m (2ft) area at each
end of the rail. This area enables the trolley to be
removed from the rail for repair or replacement.
