Configuring the Reader in accordance with national RF regulations
Configuration of the RFID Readers and the maximum transmitting power of the antennas are
affected mainly by the country-specific RF regulations. For the entire EU the limits are set forth in
the R&TTE Directive and EN 300 330.
The ID ISC.ANT1700/740 antenna with the ID ISC.LRM2000 Reader, when used as intended,
complies with the basic requirements of Article 3 and the other relevant clauses of the R&TTE
Directive 1999/5/EG of March 1999. This means that operation in the 27 EU countries and the
EFTA countries (EU countries plus Switzerland, Norway and Iceland) is possible with a maximum
field strength of 60 dBµA/m at 10 m distance.
RF approval in accordance with EN 300 330 is still possible in all 46 CEPT countries.
The CEPT countries are:
Albania (ALB), Andorra (AND), Austria (AUT), Azerbaijan (AZE), Belarus (BLR), Belgium (BEL),
Bulgaria (BUL), Bosnia and Herzegovina (BIH), Croatia (HRV), Cyprus (CYP), Czech Republic
(CZE), Denmark (DNK), Estonia (EST), Finland (FIN), France (F), Germany (D), Greece (GRC),
Hungary (HNG), Iceland (ISL), Ireland (IRL), Italy (I), Latvia (LVA), Liechtenstein (LIE), Lithuania
(LTU), Luxembourg (LUX), Malta (MLT), Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia (MKD), Moldova
(MDA), Monaco (MCO), Netherlands (HOL), Norway (NOR), Poland (POL), Portugal (POR),
Romania (ROU), Russian Federation (RUS), San Marino (SMR), Slovak Republic (SVK), Slovenia
(SVN), Spain (E), Sweden (S), Switzerland (SUI), Turkey (TUR), Ukraine (UKR), United Kingdom
(G), Vatican City (CVA) and Yugoslavia.
The following restrictions are in effect (as of: October 2006):
1. Outside the EFTA countries RF approval must in all cases be applied for. The existing
measuring protocols in accordance with EN 300 330 are generally sufficient.
When placing the antennas in service, the systems integrator must ensure that the prescribed
mounting instructions are followed, the necessary Reader settings are made and permissible limits
according to the national regulations are not exceeded.
