Prevention of interference by optimum configuration
Good interference suppression can be achieved by installing SIMATIC PLCs on conducting
mounting plates (unpainted). When setting up the control cabinet, interference can be
prevented easily by observing certain guidelines. Power components (transformers, drive
units, load power supply units) should be arranged separately from the control components
(relay control unit, SIMATIC S7).
As a rule:
• The effect of the interference decreases as the distance between the interference source
and interference sink increases.
• The interference can be further decreased by installing grounded shielding plates.
• The load connections and power cables should be installed separately from the signal
cables with a minimum clearance of 10 cm.

Filtering of the supply voltage
External interference from the mains can be prevented by installing line filters. Correct
installation is extremely important, in addition to appropriate dimensioning. It is essential that
the line filter is mounted directly at the cabinet inlet. As a result, interference is filtered
promptly at the inlet, and is not conducted through the cabinet.

4.6.6 Prevention of interference sources
A high level of immunity to interference can be achieved by avoiding interference sources.
All switched inductances are frequent sources of interference in plants.
Suppression of inductance
Relays, contactors, etc. generate interference voltages and must therefore be suppressed
using one of the circuits below.
Even with small relays, interference voltages of up to 800 V occur on 24 V coils, and
interference voltages of several kV occur on 230 V coils when the coil is switched. The use
of freewheeling diodes or RC circuits prevents interference voltages and thus stray
interference on conductors installed parallel to the coil conductor.

Note
All coils in the cabinet should be suppressed. The valves and motor brakes are frequently
forgotten. Fluorescent lamps in the control cabinet should be tested in particular.

4.6.7 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. If the plant components are connected
across signal cables, transient currents flow across the signal cables. These transient
currents can corrupt the signals.
Proper equipotential bonding is thus essential.
• The equipotential bonding conductor must have a sufficiently large cross section (at least
10 mm2).
• The distance between the signal cable and the associated equipotential bonding
conductor must be as small as possible (antenna effect).
• A fine-strand conductor must be used (better high-frequency conductivity).
• When connecting the equipotential bonding conductors to the centralized equipotential
bonding strip (EBS), the power components and non-power components must be
combined.
• The equipotential bonding conductors of the separate modules must lead directly to the
equipotential bonding strip.

Figure 4-27 Equipotential bonding (EBS = Equipotential bonding strip)
The better the equipotential bonding in a plant, the smaller the chance of interference due to
fluctuations in potential.
Equipotential bonding should not be confused with protective earthing of a plant. Protective
earthing prevents the occurrence of excessive shock voltages in the event of equipment
faults whereas equipotential bonding prevents the occurrence of differences in potential.

4.6.8 Cable shielding
Signal cables must be shielded in order to prevent coupling of interference.
The best shielding is achieved by installing the cables in steel tubes. However, this is only
necessary if the signal cable is routed through an environment prone to particular
interference. It is usually adequate to use cables with braided shields. In either case,
however, correct connection is vital for effective shielding.
Note
An unconnected or incorrectly connected shield has no shielding effect.
As a rule:
• For analog signal cables, the shield should be connected at one end on the receiver side
• For digital signals, the shield should be connected to the enclosure at both ends
• Since interference signals are frequently within the HF range (> 10 kHz), a large-area HF-
proof shield contact is necessary

4-56 System Manual, Release 04/2006, J31069 D0166-U001-A2-7618
The shielding bus should be connected to the control cabinet enclosure in a manner allowing
good conductance (large-area contact) and must be situated as close as possible to the
cable inlet. The cable insulation must be removed and the cable clamped to the shielding
bus (high-frequency clamp) or secured using cable ties. Care should be taken to ensure that
the connection allows good conductance.
Cable tie
5HPRYHSDLQW
Figure 4-29 Connection of shielding bus
The shielding bus must be connected to the PE busbar.
If shielded cables have to be interrupted, the shield must be continued via the corresponding
connector housing. Only suitable connectors may be used for this purpose.

Figure 4-30 Interruption of shielded cables
If intermediate connectors, which do not have a suitable shield connection, are used, the
shield must be continued by fixing cable clamps at the point of interruption. This ensures a
large-area, HF-conducting contact.

5.1 5.1 Overview
The reader ensures inductive communication with the transponders, and handles the serial
connection to the communication modules/interface modules and 8xIQ-Sense module.
Communication between the transponder and reader takes place over inductive alternating
fields.
The transmittable data volume between reader and transponder depends on:
• the speed at which the transponder moves through the transmission window of the
reader.
• the length of the transmission window.
• the transponder type (FRAM, EEPROM).

ANT 1
The ANT 1 is an antenna in the mid performance range and can be used to the customer's
advantage in production and assembly lines due to its manageable housing shape. The
antenna dimensions make it possible to read/write large quantities of data dynamically
from/to the tag during operation. The antenna cable can be connected at the reader end.
ANT 18
The ANT 18 is designed for use in small assembly lines. Due to its small, compact
construction, the antenna can be easily positioned for any application using two plastic nuts
(included in the package). The antenna cable can be connected at the reader end. With the
RF320T and RF340T tags, communication with the data storage unit is only possible in static
mode.
ANT 30
The ANT 30 is designed for use in small assembly lines. In comparison to ANT 18, the
maximum write/read distance is approximately 60 % larger. Due to its compact construction,
the antenna can be easily positioned for any application using two plastic nuts (included in
the package). The antenna cable can be connected at the reader end. With the RF320T,
RF340T and RF350T tags, communication with the data storage unit is only possible in static
mode.

Transponders 6
6.1 6.1 Overview
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.

Figure 6-12 Memory configuration of the RF300 tags
The memory configuration of an RF300 tag always comprises an EEPROM memory that has
20 bytes for user data (read/write) and a 4 byte unique serial number (UID, read only). For
reasons of standardization, the UID is transferred as an 8 byte value through a read
command to address FFF0 with a length of 8. The unused 4 high bytes are filled with zeros.
A high-speed FRAM memory (read/write) is available as an option. Depending on the tag
type, this is 8 KB (0-1FFC) or 32 KB (0-7FFC) in size.
The EEPROM memory area (address FF00-FF13) can also be used as a so-called "OTP"
memory (One Time Programmable). The 5 block addresses FF80, FF84, FF88, FF8C and
FF90 are used for this purpose. A write command to this block address with a valid length (4,
8, 12, 16, 20 depending on the block address) protects the written data from subsequent
overwriting.
Notice
This operation is not reversible.

Note
The OTP area cannot be used for the IQ-Sense reader variant.
When the OTP area is used, it must also be ensured that the blocks are write-protected
starting from Block 0consecutively.
Examples:
3 blocks (with write command), Block 0, 1, 2 (FF80, length = 12): valid
2 blocks (consecutive), Block 0 (FF80, length =4), Block 1 (FF84, length = 4): valid
2 blocks (consecutive), Block 0 (FF80, length =4), Block 2 (FF88, length = 4): Invalid
1 Block, Block 4 (FF90, length = 4): Invalid
The EEPROM user memory (address FF00-FF13, or FF80-FF90) requires significantly more
time for writing (approx. 11 ms/byte) than the high-speed FRAM memory. For time-critical
applications with a write function, it is therefore recommended that FRAM tags are used (e.g.
RF340T, RF350T, RF360T).

Field of application
The 8xIQ-Sense module is the link between the RF310R with 8xIQ-Sense interface and
SIEMENS S7-300 and functions in the same manner as the communication module
(interface module). It can be operated centrally in an S7-300 or decentrally in an ET200M.

7.1.4 Addressing
The address range of the 8xIQ-Sense module is 16 bytes I/O.
This is independent of the choice of channel profiles on the connected device
(i.e. the IQ profile IDs in HW Config).
Access to memory areas
A direct association exists between the number of the channel to which the IQ-Sense device
is connected (terminal) and the input and output data area of the module. Based on the
address range, the following addresses can be used to access the memory areas:
Address = module initial address + (channel no. x 2)
