FX9500 RFID Reader
As shown in Figure 1-2, the high performance FX9500 RFID Reader supports up
to eight Tx/Rx antennas (8x1 monostatic or 4x2 bistatic) and is equipped with
RS-232, USB 2.0, and Ethernet interfaces. Discrete digital inputs and outputs are
also provided.
Figure 1-2
FX9500 Power and I/O Connections
4 FX9500 RFID Reader
The FX9500 RFID Reader is equipped with four status indicators located on the
top of the enclosure. These LEDs provide indication for the following:
• Sense - Indicates RFID Reader has detected a tag in the RF field
• Transmit - Indicates the RFID Reader's transmitter is operating (RF on)
• Fault - Indicates a fault occurred
• Power - Indicates that power is applied to the RFID Reader.

Reader Software
The FX9500 is shipped with a software application called the Web Console that
can be used to configure and control the RFID Reader.The Web Console is an
embedded RFID Reader application that provides the ability to access RFID
Readers across the internet. Enter the IP address of the RFID Reader into a web
browser and the Web Console allows you to fully modify and operate the RFID
Reader. This application provides the ability to modify the RFID Reader's
communication, network, and operational parameters. Also, the ability to read
tags, review tag data, perform diagnostics, and upload new software. This
application is primarily intended for configuring and managing deployed RFID
Readers. For detailed information, refer to the FX9500 RFID Reader User Guide.

in fuel depots, chemical plants etc. and areas where the air contains chemicals or
particles (such as grain, dust, or metal powders).
Safety in Hospitals
Wireless devices transmit radio frequency energy and may affect medical
electrical equipment. When installed adjacent to other equipment, it is advised to
verify that the adjacent equipment is not adversely affected.
Warnings for Use of Wireless Devices
8 FX9500 RFID Reader
Pacemakers
Pacemaker manufacturers recommended that a minimum of 15 cm (6 inches) be
maintained between a handheld wireless device and a pacemaker to avoid
potential interference with the pacemaker. These recommendations are
consistent with independent research and recommendations by Wireless
Technology Research.
Use with Hearing Aids
When some wireless devices are used near some hearing devices (hearing aids
and cochlear implants), users may detect a buzzing, humming, or whining noise.
Some hearing devices are more immune than others to this interference noise,
and wireless devices also vary in the amount of interference they generate. In the
event of interference you may want to consult your hearing aid supplier to discuss
solutions.
Other Medical Devices
Please consult your physician or the manufacturer of the medical device, to
determine if the operation of your wireless product may interfere with the medical
device.
Safety Information
Reducing RF Exposure - Use Properly
Only operate the device in accordance with the instructions supplied.
International
The device complies with internationally recognized standards covering human
exposure to electromagnetic fields from radio devices. For information on
“International” human exposure to eletromagnetic fields, refer to the Zebra
Declaration of Conformity (DoC) located at the following web address:
http://www.zebra.com/doc.
CAUTION Persons with pacemakers should ALWAYS keep the device
more than 15cm (6 inches) from their pacemaker when turned
ON.
RF Exposure Guidelines
Regulatory Guide 9
Europe
To comply with EU RF exposure requirements, antennas that are mounted
externally at remote locations or operating near user’s at stand-alone desktop of
similar configurations must operate with a minimum separation distance of 24 cm
from all persons.
US and Canada
To comply with FCC RF exposure requirements, antennas that are mounted
externally at remote locations or operating near users at stand-alone desktop of
similar configurations must operate with a minimum separation distance of 24cm
from all persons.
Power Supply
Use ONLY a LISTED, Type no. 50-14000 or PWRS-14000 (24 Vdc/3.25 A max),
direct plug-in power supply, marked Class 2 or LPS (IEC60950-1, SELV). Use of
alternative Power Supply will invalidate any approvals given to this unit and may
be dangerous.

Radio Frequency Interference
Requirements-FCC
Note: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a
Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC rules. These limits are
designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a
residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio
frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the
instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However
there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If
this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception,
which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is
encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following
measures:
• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna
• Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver
• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which
the receiver is connected
• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
Radio Transmitters (Part 15)
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the
following 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 operation.
Radio Frequency Interference Requirements - Canada
This Class B digital apparatus complies with Canadian ICES-003.
Cet appareil numérique de la classe B est conforme à la norme NMB-003 du
Canada.
Radio Transmitters
This device complies with RSS 210 of Industry Canada. Operation is subject to
the following 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 operation.
Ce dispositif est conforme à la norme CNR-210 d'Industrie Canada applicable aux
appareils radio exempts de licence. Son fonctionnement est sujet aux deux
conditions suivantes: (1) le dispositif ne doit pas produire de brouillage
Regulatory Guide 11
préjudiciable, et (2) ce dispositif doit accepter tout brouillage reçu, y compris un
brouillage susceptible de provoquer un fonctionnement indésirable.
Label Marking: The Term "IC:" before the radio certification only signifies that
Industry Canada technical specifications were met.
To reduce potential radio interference to other users, the antenna type and its gain
should be so chosen that the equivalent isotropically radiated power (EIRP) is not
more than that permitted for successful communication.
This device has been designed to operate with the antennas having a maximum
gain of 6dBi. Antennas not included in this list or having a gain greater than 6dBi
are strictly prohibited for use with this device. The required antenna impedance is
50 ohms.
