4.0 V-Track System Setup and Checkout
The Setup and Checkout process requires the use of an LRT-5 Transponder. The LRT-5 is equipped with an LED that
flashes Red when in the coverage area of the Exciter. The Red flashing LED indicates that it is in the Exciter field and is
shipping data to the RXR-10 Receiver.
Perform the following steps after you have installed and wired the V-Track system equipment:
1. Short together the Arming Input Low and High lines (the Brown and Blue wires) on the EX-10 Exciter.
2. Remove the cover from the RXR-10 Receiver and maximize Receiver sensitivity by rotating the range potentiometer
(RV1) fully clockwise (see Figure 6).
3. Power up the Receiver and the EX-10 Exciter.
4. Hold the LRT-5 Transponder in your hand. By walking the area you can quickly determine the area of coverage.
When the Red LED is blinking, you are in a covered area. If the LED stops blinking, you are out of the covered area.
Proper orientation of the Exciter/Antenna can be quickly accomplished by using the LRT-5 as your test equipment
(see Figure 7).
5. Correspondingly, while the Transponder is in the vehicle travel lane, the Receiver’s green LED will blink off/on to
indicate the Receiver recognizes the Transponder is with in range and the Receiver’s red LED will flash off every 20
seconds to indicate the Transponder’s ID code was transmitted by the Receiver to the access control panel.
NOTE: In standard operation the Receiver sends Transponder ID data to the access control system every 20 seconds for
as long as a Transponder remains in the Exciter’s field. This feature, called Last Card Lock Out (LCLO), prevents the
Receiver from overwhelming an access control system with repeated submissions of the same Transponder ID. In standard
operation, when a new ID is received (when a new Transponder enters the vehicle travel lane), the Receiver will send the
new ID immediately and apply LCLO to the new ID.
6. If the LED functions between Transponder and Receiver are not consistant, there is a problem with signal coverage in
the vehicle travel lane. Verify the Receiver is within 100 feet of the desired coverage area (see Figure 5) and the
Exciter is properly oriented (see Figure 2 and Figure 3) to cover the vehicle travel lane.
7. If the LED functions between Transponder and Receiver are consistant, you can further verify proper operation by
presenting an LRT-5 Transponder into the vehicle travel lane and verifying the ID code being sent by the Receiver to
the access control system is correct by comparing the ID code on the Transponder to the ID code displayed by the
access control system software.
8. Remove the short between the Arming Input Low and High lines (the Brown and Blue wires) on the EX-10 Exciter.
