1Introduction
The LEGIC Booster is an active dual ID tag enabling simultaneous identification of the inserted LEGIC smart card and
the embedded vehicle ID resulting in rapid driver and vehicle monitoring.
A LEGIC smart card can be placed in the device (representing driver ID). Additionally a separate ID is programmed in
the LEGIC Booster (representing vehicle ID). Once configured, the LEGIC Booster allows a driver ID badge together with
its embedded vehicle ID to be read from a distance up to 10 meters (33 feet) in combination with NEDAP TRANSIT
readers. This solution substantially enhances the level of security when controlling activities of vehicles that are
regularly used by different drivers. Additionally a fully integrated vehicle and personnel access solution can be
implemented. The LEGIC Booster Ultimate further enhances the level of security with additional communication by
checking the LEGIC Booster Ultimate authenticity.
For more details about the NEDAP TRANSIT reader refer to the TRANSIT installation guide.
The combined vehicle and driver identification is a unique NEDAP patented feature. Optionally the vehicle-ID can be
omitted if more information from the LEGIC card is required.
The LEGIC Booster supports LEGIC Advant and Prime cards.
NEDAP can also supply Booster devices that are able to read NEDAP, EM4200, HID-Prox or MIFARE/DESFIRE cards.
The LEGIC Booster was developed based upon the unique patent of the Nedap dual band technology. This technology
enables reading of the low frequency credit card sized tag by the TRANSIT microwave reader. The microwave
technology in the 2.45GHz band allows identification at a distance up to 10 meters, even at high speeding passage.
The LEGIC Booster Ultimate has an extra 433MHz band for a triple band technology for extra LEGIC Booster Ultimate
authentication.
Key features:
•Combined vehicle and driver identification
•Easy interior mounting
•Push button activation
•Expected lifetime up to 5 years.
•Replaceable batteries (2 x AAA)
•LEGIC Booster secure authentication (LEGIC Booster Ultimate only)

2Installation
2.1 Dimensions
The LEGIC Booster is easily mounted on the interior of the car’s windshield by means of suction cups. Users should
ensure the visual contact between the LEGIC Booster and any TRANSIT reader is unobstructed with items such as
stickers or metalized windshields (see also chapter 2.3 about solar control windshields).
Note: The suction cups must be faced toward the reader to achieve maximum reading distance.

2.2 Temperature considerations
The LEGIC Booster is designed to operate within the extreme temperature ranges, which often occur behind a vehicle’s
windshield during the winter or summer seasons (-20°C to +85°C). However the LEGIC card inserted in the LEGIC
Booster may not be designed to withstand such temperatures and could suffer damage as a result. Nedap advises to
remove the LEGIC card when not in use.
Caution: Do not leave card in access device when leaving the vehicle, as this presents a security risk.
Caution: Do not leave card in access device for long periods of time in extreme heat, as this may damage the card.
2.3 Solar control windshields
From 1997 onwards several car manufacturers introduced vehicles with solar control windshields. The solar control
windshields are equipped with a metalized coating, which can block the TRANSIT signal from the LEGIC Booster
mounted on the inside of the windshield of the vehicle.
Most of these windshields have a metal free zone where transponders can be mounted. The metal free zone of
metalized windshields is most often found in the middle of the windshield behind and slightly below the rear view
mirror. In vehicles manufactured after 1998 the metal free zone should be indicated on the window.
We advise the owner to contact the local car dealer if it is not clear where the aperture is exactly positioned in a certain
vehicle and where the LEGIC Booster should be mounted.

3Configuration
The LEGIC Booster is configured by means of configuration cards. This configuration card is a LEGIC Advant
transponder that contains all the information that is required to find the user's segment and read the data. The LEGIC
Booster only accepts a configuration card after configuration is enabled with a master token card.
A newly purchased LEGIC Booster will accept any master token card. Once a master token has been inserted, the
LEGIC Booster will only accept that specific master token and cannot be reconfigured with other master tokens.
3.1 Configuration card set
The configuration card set contains 3 cards that have the exact same stamp.
•The master token IAM n/31 enables the programmer to write the configuration card.
•The master token SAM n/31 enables the LEGIC Booster to accept the configuration card.
•The configuration card.
Note: Previously the set contained only 2 cards (no SAM n/31 card included).
The IAM n/31 card was accepted on the LEGIC Booster as well as on the programmer
A special master token SAM n/32 can be used to perform a 'master token withdraw'. This will release the bonded
master token information and enables the Booster to accept any master token again (just like a virgin LEGIC Booster
from the factory). The 'withdraw' master token should have the exact same stamp as the original master token. The
SAM n/32 card is not included in the master token set.
3.2 Configuration procedure
Follow the procedure below to configure the LEGIC Booster for your application.
1. Insert the master token SAM card in the LEGIC Booster and push the button.
The LEGIC Booster sounds the buzzer with an increasing frequency: ♪♪♪
The LEGIC Booster will now accept your configuration data card.
2. Insert the configuration data card in the LEGIC Booster and push the button.
The LEGIC Booster sounds the buzzer with a decreasing frequency ♪♪♪
The configuration is accepted.
Now your LEGIC Booster will read the LEGIC smart cards that meet the conditions defined in your configuration.

4Usage information
4.1 Using the LEGIC Booster
Place the LEGIC Booster behind the windscreen of your vehicle as described in chapter 2.
The driver inserts his card and pushes the button on the LEGIC Booster.
A high beep indicates that the card was successfully read.
The TRANSIT reader can identify your LEGIC card up to a distance of 10 meters now.
After 5 seconds (or authentication for LEGIC Booster Ultimate) the LEGIC Booster returns into standby mode.
The driver should remove the LEGIC card from the LEGIC Booster when leaving the vehicle.
4.2 Reading the LEGIC Booster
The LEGIC Booster is battery operated passive tag. The information from the tag is sent to the reader by a method
called modulated backscatter. This means that the reader's transmitted signal is modified by the LEGIC Booster in such
way that it can be recognized by the reader. For the LEGIC Booster Ultimate an active 433MHz transmitter is used for
secure authentication, this is done automatic.
The examples below assume that a TRANSIT reader with P81 firmware is used and show the messages transmitted on
the RS232 interface to a host system (TXD). Refer to the reader firmware manual for more details about the reader
communication protocol.
Dual-ID mode
The LEGIC Booster cannot be identified until the driver inserts his card and pushes the button. Once the button is
pushed the LEGIC Bbooster reads the inserted card and sounds the buzzer upon a successful read. Both vehicle-ID and
driver-ID are transmitted to the reader. After 5 seconds (or authentication for LEGIC Booster Ultimate) the LEGIC
Booster automatically deactivates.
Example: vehicle-id = 123, driver-id = 7100944, TXD = U00000001230007100944 <CR><LF>
If 'Extended Driver-ID length' is enabled, the following message is transmitted to the host.
Example: vehicle-id = 123, driver-id = 7100944, TXD = Y00000001230000000000000007100944 <CR><LF>
Single-ID mode
The LEGIC Booster is 'sleeping' until the driver inserts his card and pushes the button. The LEGIC smart card is read
and the data is transmitted to the host system. After 5 seconds (or authentication for LEGIC Booster Ultimate) the
LEGIC Booster automatically deactivates again.
Example: driver-id = 871111111117100944, TXD = U00871111111117100944 <CR><LF>
If 'Extended Driver-ID length' is enabled, the following message is transmitted to the host.
Example: driver-id = 871111111117100944, TXD = Z00000000000000871111111117100944 <CR><LF>
