1. Introduction
omlox Marker Mini is a TRUMPF product which can be used in
the core zone of any omlox compatible real-time locating system
(RTLS) which uses Ultra-Wideband (UWB) pulses for real-time
3D location of objects in buildings in various industries.
omlox Marker Mini are mainly used as mobile devices while
omlox Satellites are used as fixed bases in the RTLS. In this
case, the omlox Satellites are synchronized with each other. The
mobile devices, such as omlox Marker Mini or SmartAntennas
are tracked in two modes which can coexist: Multi-Tag Tracking
(server-centric; position is calculated by server) and GPS-like
Positioning (device-centric; device calculates its own position).
While the SmartAntenna can be tracked in both modes, Marker
Mini can only be tracked in Multi-Tag Tracking Mode.
System architecture overview Fig. 116078
Marker mini meets the standard of omlox air interface and with
that is useable in any omlox core zone (marked in red).
The omlox core zone contains:
■satellites (e.g. omlox satellites)
■location server (e.g. TRUMPF location server)
■tags (e.g. Marker mini)

2. Safety and compliance information
2.1 FCC - safety and compliance
This device complies with Part 15 of the Federal Communica-
tions Commission (FCC) Rules. Operation is subject to the fol-
lowing two conditions: (1) this device may not cause harmful
interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference
received, including interference that may cause undesired opera-
tion.
This equipment may only be operated indoors.
ØOperation outdoors is in violation of 47 U.S.C. 301 and
could subject the operator to serious legal penalties.
This equipment may only be operated as a fixed instal-
lation.
ØMobile operation is in violation of 47 U.S.C. 301 and could
subject the operator to serious legal penalties.
UWB devices may not be employed for the operation of
toys.
ØOperation onboard an aircraft, a ship or a satellite is prohib-
ited.
Changes or modifications
ØAny changes or modifications not expressly approved by
TRUMPF could void the user's authority to operate this
equipment.
The Satellites only operate (i.e. receive and transmit UWB sig-
nals) within a complete UWB real-time location system TRUMPF
RTLS, which must be professionally installed. The installed sys-
tem is configured to cover only the area inside the building, pre-
venting the Satellites and other UWB devices of the system
from emitting UWB signals outdoors. Contact your system admin-
istrator if you are unsure as to the extent of coverage. .
