Objective

To ensure quality of the Biomark FS2020 readers, an incoming QA procedure has been established.

Scope

Describes the limits of this procedure. That is, does this procedure only apply to a certain type of location or file type or installation or department? Is there a limit to the capacity of the system, volume, or throughput?

Responsibilities

This procedure is to be performed by PSMFC Kennewick personnel.

Procedure

Incoming Inspection

  • Check packing box for damage.
  • Unpack box and verify contents include the transceiver, power cord, traveller with test documents, and reader mounting template.
  • Check the transceiver for physical damage and blemishes.
  • Check that all screws are present and tight.
  • Check that all connectors are properly seated.
  • Check that all jumpers are present.
  • Verify that the transceiver serial number matches the packing box serial number and the traveller/testing documents serial number.



Operational and Performance Tests

  • Set jumpers on main PCB.
    • SP3 in - SP1, SP2, SP4 out.
  • Connect the reader to the Klikitat prototype antenna.
  • Connect the power cord to the transceiver and AC.
  • Turn the transceiver power supply voltage to maximum (fully clockwise).
  • Turn on the transceiver.
  • Verify that the transceiver auto-tunes and doesn't have any error conditions.
  • Perform a transceiver full tune.
    • Setup/Antenna/Antenna Full Tune

  • Turn on the detection efficiency test.
    • Setup/Detection/Det. Efficiency Test
  • Using a SST-1 test block, verify that the maximum read distance in the center of the Klikitat prototype antenna is 15.5" (+/- 1/2").
  • Verify that the 100% detection efficiency read range is 13" (+/- 1/2"). Note: Shop lights must be off.
    • If the read range performance levels are not met, perform a reader fine tuning procedure and repeat the test. Refer to the Users manual for instructions.
  • Turn on HDX detection
    • Setup/Detection/HDX Detection
  • Using a HDX test block, verify that the HDX maximum read distance in the center of the Klikitat prototype antenna is at least 15"
  • Verify that the HDX 100% read range is at least 13".
  • Turn off HDX detection.
  • Turn off the detection efficiency test.
    • Setup/Detection/Det. Efficiency Test
  • Turn on the virtual tag test.
    • Setup/Detection/Virtual Tag Test
  • Turn the VTT level fully clockwise using the VTT pot (RV?).
  • Verify a hit rate of 100%.
  • Verify that the virtual tag level is 99% to 100%.
    • Status/Diagnostics/Virtual Tag Level
  • Turn down the VTT level using the VTT pot until the hit rate is less than 100%.
  • Verify that the virtual tag level is less than 90%.
    • Staus/Diagnostics/Virtual Tag Level
  • Turn unique mode off.
    • Setup/?????????
  • Verify that the beeper is functional.
  • Turn unique mode back on.



Synchronization Tests

Use direct statements.

Environmental Tests

  • Place the transceiver in the ESPEC LHU-113 temperature chamber.
  • Route the Klikitat prototype antenna exciter cable through the chamber test port and connect to the transceiver.
  • Route fiber optic communication cable through the chamber test port and connect to the transceiver.
  • Route the AC poer cord through the chamber test port and connect to transceiver.
  • Install the chamber test port plugs.
  • Plug the AC ord into an AC outlet.
  • Connect the fiber optic cables to a fiber optic converter (wall wart version).
  • Connect the fiber optic converter to a PC or laptop serial RS232 port or USB/RS232 converter.
  • Turn on the transceiver.
  • Turn on the tag efficiency test.
    • Setup/Detection/Det. Efficiency Test
  • Set remote port protocol to ASCII
    • Setup/Communication/Remote Port Protocol
  • Close the transceiver and chamber door.
  • Place a SST-1 test block in the center of the Klikitat prototype antenna at a distance of 13". (make sure that shop lights are off)
  • Set the chamber temperature to -10C and start chamber (refer to chamber users manual).
  • Start a terminal emulation program on the PC (i.e. Hyperterminal).
  • Configure the terminal software with the correct comm port and set the baud rate to 115200.
  • Monitor the hit rate on the terminal screen as the temperature changes. The hit rate should stay at 100%.
  • Monitor the chamber temperature. When it hits -10C, continue to soak for 1 hour while monitoring the hit rate.
  • Send a RFS command to the transceiver and check that the reported transceiver temperature is within an expected range.
  • Set the chamber temperature to +60C and repeat the previous 3 steps.
  • Turn off the chamber and open the chamber door.
  • Allow the chamber and transceiver to cool down a few minutes before removing the transceiver.



Communications Tests

Ethernet

  • Connect the transceiver to the network ethernet connection.
  • plug the Transceiver into AC receptacle and turn reader on.
  • On a network attached PC, run the Lantronix DeviceInstaller utility.
  • In the utility program, search for the attached transceiver and configure a static IP address using an unused IP on the network.
    • (refer to the transceiver users manual for instructions)
  • Start a Telnet client (i.e. Hyperterminal) and configure the same IP with a port address of 10001.
  • In the Telnet client, send an RFS command and verify a full status response from the transceiver.

USB

  • Connect a USB cable between the transceiver and a PC.
  • Start a terminal program (i.e. Hyperterminal).
  • Configure the correct port with a baud rate of 115200.
  • In the terminal program, issue an RFS command and verify a full status response from the transceiver.

Fiber Optic

  • Set remote port protocol to BPA
    • Setup/Communication/Remote Port Protocol
  • Connect the fiber optic connection to the test lab platform.
  • Set the reader ID to match a configured reader ID on the test platform.
    • Setup/Reader/Reader ID ???????????????
  • Configure Minimon on the test PC for the correct settings if needed.
  • using the Minimon test PC, issue a RFS command and verify a full status response from the transceiver.



Failure Disposition

  • Contact Biomark for problem resolution suggestions.
  • If problem can't be resolved, obtain a RMA number from Biomark and ship the transceiver back to Biomark.
  • Generate a QA failure report.
  • Contact appropriate PSMFC personnel regarding the failure and disposition.



Completion

  • Reinstall all jumpers.
  • Replace F/O connector protective covers.
  • Screw connector protective covers in place.
  • ?? Place QA sticker on inside of front cover.
  • ?? Place asset tag on transceiver.
  • Repack transceiver with power cord, traveller, and template in original box.
  • ?? Notify appropriate personnel that testing is complete.
