10 Priva B.V. Product description The FS Cradle is part of the labour and production registration system of Priva FS Performance. The FS Cradle has several functionalities, of which the most important is serving as docking and charging station for the FS Readers. One FS Cradle can contain up to 10 FS Readers. Functions and intended use Functions The FS Cradle should be used to activate new FS Readers that will be operated for the first time. Placing the FS Reader in the FS Cradle triggers the FS Reader: To awake from its transport mode. To pick up wireless communication that can be understood; this allows the FS Reader to select the correct frequency used for the wireless communication. To get its battery fully charged. And, if the FS Reader has been registered already: o o o The FS Reader will switch to the Linked status. The internal clock will be synchronised. The latest firmware version will be loaded if this is different from the preloaded firmware version in the FS Reader. The FS Cradle serves, most importantly, as the charging station for the FS Readers. When the FS Reader is placed in the FS Cradle, it will automatically start charging its battery. Finally, the FS Cradle serves as a docking station for FS Readers not in use. As such, it provides a platform in which the FS Readers can be placed so that any remaining registrations in the FS Reader will be uploaded automatically and necessary updates to the firmware of the FS Readers can take place. Intended use The FS Cradle is intended to be located in a central place where employees start or gather in the morning or end the working day, to ensure easy access for employees. The unit should be placed in a highly visible location, again for easy access. The intended practical use of the FS Cradle is to provide a platform on which employees can leave and charge their FS Readers after they finished working. They will then take the FS Readers from the FS Cradle when they start working again. 10 FS Cradle Installation manual 1.2

11 Transport and storage Dimensions Dimensions (including packaging): Weight (including packaging): 8 cm x 9 cm x 102 cm. 1,7 kg Contents of the package The package of the FS Cradle contains the following items: 1 FS Cradle. 2 plugs and 2 screws for mounting the FS Cradle to a wall. 4 rubber base sticky feet for positioning the FS Cradle on a flat surface. Separate from the package, a power cord is delivered with the FS Cradle. Conditions during transport and storage The ambient conditions must remain within the following limits during transport and storage: Temperature: C. Relative air humidity: maximum 95 % (non-condensing). Rain: the packaged equipment must be kept dry and must therefore not stand outdoors. Sunlight: the packaged equipment must not stand in bright sunlight. Otherwise, the internal temperature may become too high causing deformation in the plastic components. Vibrations: avoid exposure to strong vibrations. FS Cradle Installation manual

12 Priva B.V. Installation - positioning the unit Location and environmental conditions The FS Cradle has been tested and can operate in greenhouse environmental conditions; however it should not be placed under direct spray of water, maximum humidity or under direct influence of abrasive or aggressive chemicals. Direct sunlight should also be avoided, because it can reduce the battery condition of the FS Readers during the charging process. Basic facility requirement The FS Cradle requires a standard power socket to plug in and become operational. The FS Cradle will be delivered with a power cord designed for the region in which the equipment can be used and therefore no further equipment is needed to use the FS Cradle. Positioning the unit The FS Cradle should be positioned in a central place where employees start or gather in the morning or end the working day and should be positioned so that it is clearly visible to employees coming in for work. The cradle can stand on itself, on a flat horizontal surface or can be mounted on a flat vertical surface (i.e. a wall). For positioning the FS Cradle on a flat horizontal surface, the 4 rubber base sticky feet that are included in the package should be glued to the four corners on the bottom of the unit, at 1 cm from the surrounds. For mounting the FS Cradle to a wall: Select a wall that is amply strong enough to hold the weight of the FS Cradle and that can withstand the repeated pressure of putting FS Readers into the charging positions of the FS Cradle. Use a proper drilling machine to drill two holes (8 mm wide, 45 mm deep) at the correct horizontal distance (check the rear side of the FS Cradle). Put the plugs that are provided with the FS Cradle into the holes and drive the provided screws into the plugs. Place the FS Cradle over the screws. 12 FS Cradle Installation manual 1.2

13 Installation - electrical part Electrical connection In the European Union (including the UK), the United States and Australia, the FS Cradle is delivered with a power cord and connector suited for the country in which the customer is located. Commissioning Only Priva approved service engineers/installers who have received productspecific training from Priva are allowed to commission the unit (for the first time). Preparations The FS Cradle is delivered with all the equipment necessary to make it operational. Commissioning The following steps are to be taken in order to properly install the FS Cradle: 1. The installer selects the best location, preferably in a central place. 2. The installer connects the power cord to the socket. 3. The installer makes sure that the led on the FS Cradle is on. 4. The installer places the FS Reader in each of the docks on the FS Cradle, to ensure that each of the docks can charge an FS Reader. 5. The installer checks the quality of the wireless network on that location to guarantee the upload of registrations and download of firmware updates. Operation The FS Cradle works automatically once installed and therefore does not need any actions during operation. FS Cradle Installation manual

14 Priva B.V. Taking out of operation In order for the FS Cradle to be taken out of operation, the following steps need to be undertaken: 1. The installer disconnects the power cord. 2.
