The field is strongest close to the reader; however, a read/write distance of "zero" between reader and transponder is not recommended. The strength of the field decreases in proportion to the distance from the reader. The distribution of the field depends on the structure and geometry of the antennas in the reader and transponder A prerequisite for the function of the transponder is a minimum field strength at the transponder, which is still barely achieved at distance Sg from the reader.

The active operating area reduces as the distance increases, and shrinks to a single point at distance Sg. Only static mode should thus be used in the area between Sa and Sg. 4.1.3 Width of the transmission window Determining the width of the transmission window The following approximation formula can be used for practical applications: % y/ B: Width of the transmission window L: Length of the transmission window Tracking tolerances The width of the transmission window (B) is particularly important for the mechanical tracking tolerance. The formula for the dwell time is valid without restriction when B is observed.

The figure below shows the active area for various directions of transponder motion: RU RU%%%/// Transmission window Direction of motion of the transponder Detection area L x W Figure 4-3 Detection areas of the reader for different directions of transponder motion 4.1.5 Operation in static and dynamic mode Operation in static mode If working in static mode, the transponder can be operated up to the limit distance (Sg). The transponder must then be positioned exactly over the reader: 7UDQVPLVVLRQZLQGRZ7UDQVSRQGHU5HDGHU6J Figure 4-4 Operation in static mode

Operation in dynamic mode When working in dynamic mode, the transponder moves past the reader. The transponder can be used as soon as the intersection (SP) of the transponder enters the circle of the transmission window. In dynamic mode, the operating distance (Sa) is of primary importance. [Operating distances, see Chapter Field data of transponders and readers (Page 28)] 7UDQVPLVVLRQZLQGRZ7UDQVSRQGHU7UDQVSRQGHU3ODQYLHZ6363 Figure 4-5 Operation in dynamic mode 4.1.6 Dwell time of the transponder The dwell time is the time in which the transponder remains within the transmission window of a reader. The reader can exchange data with the transponder during this time.

The dwell time must be sufficiently long to allow communication with the transponder. The dwell time is defined by the system environment in dynamic mode. The volume of data to be transferred must be matched to the dwell time or vice versa. In general: Kvtt≥ tV:: Dwell time of the data memory within the field of the reader tK: Communication time between transponder and communication module 4.1.7 Communication between communication module, reader and transponder Communication between the communication module, reader and transponder takes place asynchronously through the RS422 interface. Depending on the communication module (ASM) used, transfer rates of 19200 baud, 57600 baud or 115200 baud can be selected. Calculation of the communication time for interference-free transfer The communication time for fault-free data transfer is calculated as follows: =+ ⋅tKtnKByte(n >1) If the transmission is interrupted briefly due to external interference, the reader automatically continues the command. Calculation of the maximum amount of user data The maximum amount of user data is calculated as follows: tk: Communication time between communication module, reader and transponder tv: Dwell time n: Amount of user data in bytes nmax: Max. amount of user data in bytes in dynamic mode tbyte: Transmission time for 1 byte K: Constant; the constant is an internal system time. This contains the time for power buildup on the transponder and for command transfer

The communication time only includes the processing time between the reader and the transponder and the internal system processing time of these components. The communication times between the communication module and the reader do not have to be taken into account because the command for reading or writing is already active when the transponder enters the transmission field of the reader. The values shown above must be used when calculating the maximum quantity of user data in dynamic mode. They are applicable for both writing and reading.

They should only be used during configuration in exceptional cases, however, since the read/write distances are very limited. Exact details of the secondary field geometry cannot be given, since these values depend heavily on the operating distance and the application. When working in dynamic mode, remember that during the transition from the secondary field to the main field the presence of the tag is lost temporarily. It is therefore advisable to select a distance > 30% of Sg. $SSUR[65HDGHUV*DSLQILHOG'LUHFWLRQRIWDJPRYHPHQW6DPD[6JJ'LUHFWLRQRIWDJPRYHPHQW7DJ7DJ Figure 4-7 Gap in the field resulting from secondary fields

In this case, the data transfer time would increase unpredictably or a command would be aborted with an error. Adherence to the values specified in the "Minimum distance from reader to reader" table is therefore essential. If the specified minimum distance cannot be complied with due to the physical configuration, the SET-ANT command can be used to activate and deactivate the HF field of the reader. The application software must be used to ensure that only one reader is active (antenna is switched on) at a time.

Any type of metal in the vicinity of these devices affects their functionality. Some points need to be considered during planning and installation if the values described in the "Field data (Page 28)" section are to retain their validity: ● Minimum spacing between two readers or their antennas ● Minimum distance between two adjacent data memories ● Metal-free area for flush-mounting of readers or their antennas and transponders in metal ● Mounting of multiple readers or their antennas on metal frames or racks The following sections describe the impact on the operation of the RFID system when mounted in the vicinity of metal. 4.3.2 Reduction of interference due to metal Interference due to metal rack Problem 6KHHW0HWDOUDFN6D1RQPHWDOOLFVSDFHU0HWDO7UDQVSRQGHU5HDGHUV A metal rack is located above the transmission window of the reader. This affects the entire field. In particular, the transmission window between reader and transponder is reduced. Remedy: 7UDQVSRQGHU5HDGHU The transmission window is no longer affected if the transponder is mounted differently.

However, the size of the transmission window is significantly reduced. The following measures can be used to counteract the reduction of the window: Remedy: PP [!PP5HDGHU Enlargement of the non-metallic spacer below the transponder and/or reader. The transponder and/or reader are 10 to 20 mm higher than the metal surround. (The value x ≥ 100 mm is valid, for example, for RF260R. It indicates that, for a distance x ≥ 100 mm, the reader can no longer be significantly affected by metal.) Remedy: DDEE5HDGHU Increase the non-metallic distance a, b. The following rule of thumb can be used: • Increase a, b by a factor of 2 to 3 over the values specified for metal-free areas • Increasing a, b has a greater effect for readers or transponders with a large limit distance than for readers or transponders with a small limit distance.

There is normally no interaction as long as the minimum distance D and metal-free areas a, b are maintained. However, interaction may take place if an iron frame is positioned unfavorably.

For more information, please refer to the descriptions of the individual transponders and readers in the relevant section. 4.3.4 Impact of metal on the transmission window In general, the following points should be considered when mounting RFID components: ● Direct mounting on metal is allowed only in the case of specially approved transponders. ● Flush-mounting of the components in metal reduces the field data; a test is recommended in critical applications. ● When working inside the transmission window, it should be ensured that no metal rail (or similar part) intersects the transmission field. The metal rail would affect the field data. The impact of metal on the field data (Sg, Sa, L) is shown in a table in this section. The values in the table describe the reduction of the field data in % with reference to non-metal (100% means no impact).

Note that the antenna splitter is a purely passive device that splits the power at the input to two outputs and therefore halves it. This is possible both in PC mode (RS-232) and CM mode (RS-422). You can cascade the antenna splitters in such a way that up to 4 antennas can be connected at the same time. The antenna multiplexer RF260X works only in PC mode (RS-232) in time division multiplex mode. This means that each antenna operates with full power for a certain time before the device moves on automatically to the next antenna. The antenna multiplexer normally operates in scan mode or buffered read mode which add the information about the antenna number to the reply of the transponder. With the antenna multiplexer, you can connect up to 6 antennas.

Depending on the installation (antennas exactly opposite each other or offset in parallel), the label is aligned in parallel with the antennas or arbitrarily. The size of the sensing range depends on the label alignment: Note Remember that the entire acquisition range of the antenna is larger than the transmission window in which the transponder is normally configured. This means there can be label alignments where even labels outside the transmission window will be identified. Labels aligned in parallel with the antennas, for example, can also be detected at larger distances beside or outside the antenna range. For this reason, goods with labels must not be stored within a distance of up to 0.5 m from the installation. If this cannot be complied with, the antennas must be shielded. To achieve three-dimensional detection of the labels in the sensing range, the following requirements must be met: • The gate width must be less than or equal to 800 mm. • The antenna size of the labels should be at least the size of an ISO card (85 mm x 54 mm). • The distance from label to label must be greater than 100 mm. The distance from label to label can be reduced if the gate width is correspondingly reduced. This applies especially for distances under 50 mm. • There should be no more than 16 labels within the sensing range of the antennas at the same time. The number of labels can be increased if the gate width is correspondingly reduced and the maximum speed suitably adapted. • The maximum speed of the labels must not exceed 1 m/s. (This depends on the number and alignment of the labels, the number of data blocks to be processed, the data protocol required and the label type). • To the front and sides of the antenna, there must be a distance of more than 150 mm to metal parts. • There must be no interference to the write/read device from other electrical equipment in the surrounding area. Note The RF290R reader is not capable of multitag operation in the CM mode.

Installation information The cables on the antennas and the antenna splitter are 3.3 m or 10.5 m long. The write/read device must be installed in the vicinity of the antennas. If there are greater distances between the write/read device and the antennas, the antenna cable can be increased by 7.2 m with the extension (6GT2 691-0DH72). This results in shorter ranges.

Serious loss of sensing range must be expected above 50 mm. There is no discernible influence at distances greater than 150 mm from the metal. ● The influence of the metal depends heavily on its size and shape. Thin metal rods have less influence on the magnetic field than large surfaces. ● Larger metal surfaces (edge length > 50 mm) in parallel with the antennas or labels result in a short-circuit of the magnetic lines of force. As a result, the labels cannot be read. ● Metal parts under the conveyor belt change the direction of the magnetic lines of force. Serious loss of sensing range must be expected as a result. Horizontally aligned labels cannot be read in such cases. ● The metal parts must not form closed loops or circuits. If necessary, these must be electrically interrupted at one point.
RF200 system planning 4.3 Installation guidelines SIMATIC RF200 58 System Manual, 03/2013, J31069-D0227-U001-A7-7618 ● The metal parts in the immediate vicinity of the antenna must be grounded in a mesh with a good HF connection. ● Since the write/read device is installed in a metal housing, and the antennas can couple into the cables to the write/read device, it must be installed at a distance of at least 500 mm from the antennas. Notes on installing and laying the antenna cable To suppress possible interference, an EMC hinged ferrite choke must be fitted to the antenna cables (as well as the antenna cable between the reader and the antenna splitter). The coaxial cable must be wound tightly at least four times through the EMC ring core. The maximum distance between the connecting plug for the reader or the antenna splitter and the ring core must be 100 mm. The antenna cable must always be run vertically from the antennas. A minimum distance of 200 mm to the antennas must be observed as the cables continue. Otherwise, performance losses must be expected. There must be a distance of at least 300 mm between antenna cables and parallel power cables. Unrequired cable length must be secured in a bundle with a diameter of 100 to 150 mm. If the standard antenna cable is too short, it can be increased by 7.20 m with the extension. Slight range losses must be expected here. To achieve optimal read ranges, the antenna cable should not be shortened or lengthened.

SIMATIC RF200 System Manual, 03/2013, J31069-D0227-U001-A7-7618 151 Glossary Automation system (AS) A programmable logical controller (PLC) of the SIMATIC S7 system, comprising a central controller, a CPU and various I/O modules. Battery-free data storage unit Mobile data storage units which operate without batteries. Power is supplied to the data storage unit across an electromagnetic alternating field. Byte A group of eight bits forms a byte CE marking Communauté Européenne (product mark of the European Union) Communication modules Communication modules ensure the integration of the MOBY and SIMATIC RF identification systems into SIMATIC, SINUMERIK, SIMOTION, PROFIBUS, PROFINET and TCP/IP. Once supplied with the corresponding parameters and data, they handle data communication. They then make the corresponding results and data available. Corresponding software blocks (FBs/FCs for SIMATIC) guarantee simple and quick integration into the application. Data transmission rate Unit of measurement for the volume of data transmitted within a unit of time, e.g. bytes/s Detection area Area with minimum field strength containing the transmission window, as well as the areas in which the field strength is no longer sufficient for data exchange. Dwell time The dwell time is the time in which the transponder dwells within the transmission window of a read/write device. The read/write device can exchange data with the transponder during this time.
Glossary SIMATIC RF200 152 System Manual, 03/2013, J31069-D0227-U001-A7-7618 Dynamic mode In dynamic mode, the data carrier moves past the read/write device at a traversing rate which depends on the configuration. Various checking mechanisms (listen-in check, CRC, ECC, etc.) ensure error-free data transfer even under extreme environmental conditions. A serial connection (up to 1000 m) is used to connect the read/write device directly to an interface module, PC, or any other system. Electromagnetic compatibility Electromagnetic compatibility is the ability of an electrical or electronic device to operate satisfactorily in an electromagnetic environment without affecting or interfering with the environment over and above certain limits. EMC Directive Guidelines for electromagnetic compatibility This guideline relates to any electrical or electronic equipment, plant or system containing electric or electronic components. Equipotential bonding Potential differences between different parts of a plant can arise due to the different design of the plant components and different voltage levels. It is necessary to compensate for these differences by equipotential bonding: this is done by combining the equipotential bonding conductors of power components and non-power components on a centralized equalizing conductor. ESD Directive Directive for handling ESDs. Frequency hopping Frequency hopping technique Automatic search for free channels. In frequency hopping, data packets are transferred between the communication partners on constantly changing carrier frequencies. This makes it possible to react to interference from devices transmitting signals in the same frequency range. If an attempt to send a data packet is unsuccessful, the packet can be transmitted again on a different carrier frequency. Interface modules (ASM) See communication modules Limit distance The limit distance (Sg) is the maximum clear distance between the upper surface of the read/write device and the transponder at which transmission still functions under normal conditions.
Glossary SIMATIC RF200 System Manual, 03/2013, J31069-D0227-U001-A7-7618 153 Lx Length of a transmission window in the x direction Ly Length of a transmission window in the y direction M Centerpoint of a field of a transmission window Metal-free area Distance/area which must be maintained between the transponder and metal in order to prevent interference during data transfer between the transponder and read/write device. Mobile data storage units (MDS) See transponder Multi-tag capability Multi-tag capability means the ability to use several read/write devices which communicate simultaneously with different data carriers. Programmable logic controller (PLC) The programmable logic controllers (PLC) of the SIMATIC S5 system consist of a central controller, one or more CPUs, and various other modules (e.g. I/O modules). Read/write devices (SLG) See readers Read/write distance See transmission distance Readers Readers ensure fast, secure data transfer between mobile data storage units and higher-level systems (PLCs, PCs, etc.). The data, energy included, are transmitted inductively across an electromagnetic alternating field or by radio. This principle enables contact-free data transmission, ensures high industrial compatibility and works reliably in the presence of contamination or through non-metallic materials.
Glossary SIMATIC RF200 154 System Manual, 03/2013, J31069-D0227-U001-A7-7618 RFID systems SIMATIC RF identification systems control and optimize material flow and production sequences. They identify reliably, quickly and economically, use non-contact data communication technology, and store data directly on the product. They are also resistant to contamination. Sa Operating distance between transponder and reader Secondary fields The strength of the secondary fields, which exist in addition to the transmission window, is usually lower than that of the transmission window and depends on the metallic environment. Secondary fields should not be used in configuring. Sg See limit distance Static mode In static mode the transponder is positioned at a fixed distance (maximum: limit distance) exactly above the read/write device. Tag See transponder Telegram cycles The transfer of a read or write command takes place in three cycles, known as message frame cycles. 1 or 2 bytes of user data can be transferred with each command. The acknowledgement transfer (status or read data) takes place in 3 further cycles. Transmission distance Distance between communication module (read/write device) and transponder (mobile data storage unit) Transmission window Area in which reliable data exchange between transponder and read/write device is possible due to a particular minimum field strength.
Glossary SIMATIC RF200 System Manual, 03/2013, J31069-D0227-U001-A7-7618 155 Transponder An invented word from transmitter and responder. Transponders are used on the product, the product carrier, the object, or its transport or packaging unit, and contain production and manufacturing data, i.e. all application-specific data. They follow the product through assembly lines, transfer and production lines and are used to control material flow. Because of their wireless design, transponders can be used, if necessary, at individual work locations or manufacturing stations, where their data can be read and updated. Transponders consist predominantly of logic, FRAM and/or EEPROM. If a transponder moves into the transmission window of the reader, the necessary power for all of the circuit components is generated and monitored by the power supply unit. The pulse-coded information is prepared in such a way that it can be processed further as pure digital signals. The handling of data, including check routines, is performed by the logic, which also manages the various memories.
