 Check the power supply and the connection cables!
 Remove the housing lid as described in
Î
Housing Without
Mounts, and check if the power LED inside the reader is lit up
(see
Î
Indicating and Operating Elements)!
 If the LED does not light up, disconnect the device from the
power supply and carefully remove the fuse (see
Î
Inside
View). Test the fuse. If it is defective, replace it with a fuse
specified by the manufacturer!
 If the above measures do not solve the problem, leave the
reader disconnected and contact the manufacturer!
 Press the tuning button.
 If the OK LED does not light up, the transponder is not within
the reading/writing range of the antenna. Install the antenna
closer to the transponder (see individual antenna ranges:
www.brooks-rfid.com). If this does not solve the problem,
contact the manufacturer!
If the tuning LED flashes:
 Check if the antenna is located too near to a strong metallic
environment. Relocate the antenna with more distance!
 Press the Tuning button for antenna tuning.
 Check if the antenna and the antenna cable are connected
correctly. Use another antenna cable if available!
 If these measures do not solve the problem, contact the
manufacturer!
