2 Performance Features of ID MAX.U500i
Perf ormanc e Features
2.1 Performance Features
With its compact size, its weather-resistant housing, a read range of 8 to 10 m and the circular-polarized
antenna supporting any transponder orientation, the UHF Vehicle Access Control Reader ID MAX.U500i is
ideally suited to provide efficient and secure vehicle access control. Up to 9000 users and vehicles can be
stored in the internal storage of the ID MAX.U500i.
The vehicle access control reader can be easily installed on a VESA mount next to a barrier, gate or bollard
due to its mechanical construction. To install the compact reader one cable is required for each interface and
power supply; for PoE only the network cable is required.
2.2 myAXXESS Manager
With the help of the software myAXXESS Manager user data and access rights can be easily handled via
PC. After programming the access rights into the vehicle access control reader via a temporary USB or
network connection the reader is working offline as a standalone system.
The Windows software is suitable for network based vehicle and door access control systems and is based
on a SQL database. The myAXXESS Manager is available in the FEIG download area.
In small applications without any time restrictions for the access rights new transponders can be added to
the reader by the Teach-In Mode without above mentioned software (See chapter 6.2.1 Teach-In Mode on
page 24.).

4 Installation
Installation
The ID MAX.U500i is designed to be mounted outdoors on a VESA bracket. The reader should be mounted
with the connections facing downwards to ensure tightness as shown below. Four holes for M5 screws are
provided on the backside of the housing for mounting on the VESA bracket. The screws used should have a
screw-in depth of maximum 8 mm. The housing can be opened by means of a hinge Therefore loosen the
screws marked blue in Fig. 1and swing away the front part of the reader. During installation, the dimensions
of the reader when opened should be taken into account (see Fig. 3). For secondary protection the reader
should be secured by means of an eye bolt (see Fig. 4), that should be fixed with screw locking varnish, and
e.g. a wire rope. The suitable accessory ID ANT.UEB-A can be purchased from FEIG ELECTRONIC.

CAUTION:
•The reader has to be supplied by a limited power supply according EN 62368-1 Chapter Q.1, or
with a NEC Class 2/LPS certified power supply.
•Each reader has to be supplied by a separate external power supply.
•Reversing the polarity of the supply voltage on X2 may destroy the device.
•External wiring for the power supply must fulfil the following norms/validation procedures:
Conductor Cross Section
Validation Procedure
from 0,5 mm² or bigger IEC 60332-1-2 and IEC 60332-1-3
smaller than 0,5 mm² IEC 60332-2-1 and IEC 60332-2-2

5.2.2 Power Supply via PoE (Power over Ethernet)
Optional the reader can be powered via the Ethernet interface on X1 with the use of a PoE „Power over
Ethernet“ power supply according to IEEE802.3at*, Class4 (30/25,5Watt). The DC supply can be achieved
via the free pins 4, 5 and 7, 8 (Midspan-Power). Also a “Phantom Powering” (Inline-Power) via the signal
pins 1, 2, 3 and 6 is possible. Depending on the conductor cross-section the following cable distances can
be used:
Conductor Cross Section
(CAT5…7)
Max. Cable Length for PoE
0,4 mm² ~ 30 m
0,6 mm² ~ 70 m
Table 5: Max. cable length depending on the conductor cross section
* For detailed technical information regarding the 802.3at standard, please refer to the most recent edition of the
corresponding IEEE specification.
NOTE:
•It must be ensured that the reader is supplied with 42.5 V (48 V DC – cable losses) at least.
•An operation of an ID MAX.U500i via an external power supply and PoE at the same time is not
recommended and can cause interferences during operation.
•If the reader is supplied via PoE, no DC voltage can be provided at the connection for the external
antenna.

5.3 Ethernet Interface on Connector X1
The reader has an integrated 10/100 base-T network port for an RJ-45. Connection is made on X1 and has
an automatic “Crossover Detection” according to the 100BASE-T Standard.
With structured cabling STP CAT5 cables should be used. This ensures a reliable operation at 10 Mbps or
100 Mbps. The prerequisite for using TCP/IP protocol is that each device has a unique IP address on the
network. All readers have a factory set IP address. The transmission parameters can be configured as
required.

5.4 Digital Outputs on Connector X4
There are 2 digital outputs available on terminal X4. The transistor connection, collector and emitter, of the
optocoupler output is galvanically isolated from the reader electronic and routed to the outside at terminal X4
without internal additional circuitry. The output must therefore be supplied with an external voltage. Each
output is linked fixed with an antenna. Reading of a valid transponder on the internal antenna will affect the
digital output OPTO1-OUT, a valid reading on the external antenna will affect the digital output OPTO2-OUT.

CAUTION:
•The outputs are designed for an input voltage of 12-24 V DC and an input current of max. 20 mA.
•Polarity reversal or overload of the outputs leads to their destruction!
•The output is only intended for switching resistive loads.
5.5 Relay Outputs on Connector X4
There are 2 relay outputs available at terminal X4 as normally open contacts. Each output is linked fixed with
an antenna. Reading of a valid transponder on the internal antenna will affect the relay REL1, a valid reading
on the external antenna will affect the relay REL2.

•The maximum switching current must not exceed 1 A.
•The relay outputs are intended for switching resistive loads only. In case an inductive load is
connected, the relay contacts must be protected by an external protective circuit.
5.6 Digital Inputs on Connector X5
There are 2 digital inputs available on X5. The optocouplers on X5 are galvanically isolated from the reader
electronics and must therefore be supplied with an external voltage.
