2 MULTIREADER HARDWARE INSTALLATION
2.1 MultiReader Cabinet Installation
The Q-FREEMultiReader (MD 5850) has two connector options, 10-pin circular and Han-
Modular connector.
Four M8x40 screws at the rear of the cabinet make it easy to design a mechanical interface to
gantries, walls, bridges, etc.
An optional Universal mounting bracket may be delivered as shown in fig.2.1.1.
This chapter is a guide to the mechanical and wiring installation of the MD 5850 MultiReader.
The instructions in this manual are based upon the use of the stainless steel 2-piece universal
bracket made by MD, MD part no. 11000013. This bracket is not included in the MD 5850, and
must be ordered separately.

Mounting Bracket
Fig.2.1.1 Optional Universal-Mounting bracket for MD 5850.
Q-Free can on request provide a special designed mounting bracket. The bracket is made of stainless
steal and allows the MultiReader to be adjusted both sideways and vertically for maximum Flexibility.

2.2 Installation site
2.2.1Toll plaza superstructure
The normal configuration at toll plaza with separate lanes, is to have the MR installed hanging
from the toll plaza superstructure. Mounting the MR under the superstructure also provides
protection from rain, snow, sun heat radiation etc.
In some cases, a gantry or pole will be more suitable for mounting the MR, but then there is no
protection from, rain, snow, sun heat radiation etc.
2.3 Basic installation
2.3.1Mounting height and angle
The normal mounting height is 5.5 to 6m above the road, and the normal mounting angle is 45°
down from vertical (fig.2.3.1). Optimum performance is obtained when the MultiReader (MR)
is mounted above the middle of the lane.
If the centre of the antenna lobe must correspond with the centre of a magnetic loop, it is
preferred that magnetic loop is installed in a position, which gives a normal MultiReader angle.
In vehicle access control systems with physical barrier where the magnetic loop vehicle
detection and OBU transactions has to be matched, the optimum-mounting angle could be
between 25°and 45°relative to the vertical plane through the MR. It is not recommended to
have a mounting angle (pointing angle) below 25°because then it is possible that overhanging
roof of special vehicles could shadow the tag.
An angle below 45°will reduce the communication zone length. This must be considered when
the vehicles are passing at a high speed.

2.4 Square tube from customers construction
2.4.1Requirements for using the Uni-bracket
The bracket accepts 2x2" or 50x50mm square tube. The customer must obtain the square tube
and fix it to the suitable superstructure, gantry or pole. At the end of the square tube, there must
be drilled holes with 11mm diameter for the bolts that fix the Uni-bracket to the tube.

Figure 2.4.1 Square tube construction
2.4.2Fixing the square tube
The customer should assure that the square tube is rigidly fixed and will not sway or yaw in
wind and will not deflect from original position over time.
2.4.3Square tube angles
The square tube can be mounted in different angles, from vertical to horizontal in the
longitudinal axis of the lane. The Uni-bracket is fixed to the MR with 4 M8 bolts that are in a
200mm square pattern. The bracket can therefore be inverted on the MR in order to accept
different angles of the square tube.
2.5 Square tube sideways angles
The Uni-bracket also provides for sideways adjustment.

3 MULTIREADER CABLE INTERFACE
3.1 MultiReader Power Supply and Data Interface
The cable interface to the MultiReader is dependent on which option and version that is
delivered. 24VDC, with 48VDC and 12VDC as options can power the MultiReader.
The normal data interface is as follows:
Circular connector:
RS422 (RS232)
Han-Modular connector:
RS422 combined with twisted pair, optical or coaxial Ethernet.
Information on how and where the different signals are located in the interface connectors is
given below (Fig. 3.2.1 and 3.3.1).
