3-2-1. Features of the wireless module
Multiple
operation modes
Easy
intersection control
The address sensor mode, RFID mode,
ground station mode, and external control mode are available as operation
modes.
The wireless units communicate
with each other to determine whether passing through the intersection is
possible or not. Therefore, the AGV
does not need to perform the
intersection control.
Radio frequency
channel change
You can select a radio frequency
from 15 channels. An optimal frequency band without interference
can be easily selected.
Antenna selection
You can select a pencil type antenna
or flanged antenna depending on the
application.
Wireless communication distance
The wireless communication
distance may vary depending on the
installation location (environment). The
following distance is used as a guide.
• Indoor placement with good visibility, About
15 m (Environment in which the antennas
can be seen together and are installed
at high positions, and there are no
obstacles around the antennas.)
Note: Field research is needed.
Easy installation
The wireless intersection module
can be installed on a Creform pipe using
the wireless intersection module box
or wireless intersection module
mounting bracket.

3-2-2. Overview of the wireless module
• The wireless module units communicate with each other to perform the intersection control.
• Instructions regarding the entrance and exit of the intersection are sent to the wireless intersection modules by the
address sensor, RFID antenna, course 30 unit, and external unit that sends various output signals. In addition, the
wireless intersection modules installed on the AGVs communicate with each other to determine whether passing
through the intersection is possible or not.
Basically, the order of passing through the intersection is set in the order of arrivals.
• If the communication status is unstable due to a long distance of wireless communication or due to effects of
obstacles caused by the layout, install the wireless intersection module on the ground and use it in the ground
station mode. The radio wave then easily reaches and avoids the effects caused by obstructions.
One ground station can control four intersections.
• You can select the intersection control by connecting signals from the wireless intersection modules installed on
the AGVs with each other or the intersection control by sending inquiries to the ground station for each intersection
address.
For the intersection control by setting the wireless intersection modules to communicate with each other, up
to eight wireless intersection modules can be used for one intersection. (Total number of units that are passing through the intersection and units that are waiting at the same time. For example, one unit is passing
and seven units are waiting at the same time.) In addition, when the intersection control is performed using
the ground station, one ground station can control up to four intersections.

through the intersection.
Intersection inquiry
Note: Do not turn ON this signal, intersection address input, or intersection
top priority input at the same time. Be sure to turn ON this signal 100 ms or
longer after turning ON the intersection address input and intersection top
priority input.
This signal is used by connecting the arrival output from the AGV. 		
When the input of the wireless intersection module that is passing through the

the ground station turns ON.
There is a waiting AGV with the intersection top priority input turned OFF
at the intersection, and then an AGV with the intersection top priority input
turned ON becomes waiting. In this case, when passing through the interIntersection top priority
section is enabled, the AGV with the intersection top priority input turned ON
passes through the intersection prior to the AGV that is waiting beforehand.
It is necessary to turn ON this signal before the intersection inquiry input.
This signal is used by connecting the battery voltage drop output from the
AGV. When the input of the wireless intersection module that is passing
Battery voltage drop
through the intersection turns ON during communication with the ground station, OUT1 of the ground station turns ON.

This antenna is used when it is installed at a position away from the wireless intersection module.
• The cable length is approximately 1 m.
• The radio wave is attenuated (lost) by the cable.
• The communicable distance is shortened approximately 15% when compared to the pencil type antenna.
• When two wireless units that communicate with each other use the flanged antennas, the communication distance
is shortened by approximately 30% due to double effects.
• For cable bending, the bending radius is 50 mm or more. If the cable is bent excessively, the insulator inside the
cable is deformed and the cable loss increases, causing the communicable distance to be shortened.

Strictly observe the following installation conditions when performing the installation.
1) Install the antennas at the highest possible positions where the antennas can be seen together.
Since the radio wave with a high frequency is used, the straightness of the radio wave is strong and it is difficult to
reach hidden places. Therefore, install the antennas at positions where the antennas can be simultaneously seen
as much as possible.
Antenna where the radio
wave can reach.

2) Install the antenna 200 mm or more away from the floor.
Since the antenna is installed in an open space where its installation height is high, it becomes difficult for obstacles
to affect the antenna and the radio wave transmits easily.
If the antenna position is extremely low, the radio wave transmitted from the antenna becomes weak.

3) Install the antenna so that it is not parallel to cables or metallic plates.
In addition, install the antenna away from any cable, metallic plates, concrete, plasterboard, lumber, and wall
surfaces as much as possible (300 mm or more).
When there are obstacles around the antenna, the radio wave becomes obstructed and is not transmitted optimally.
In particular, metallic objects affect the antenna greatly as it reflects the radio wave. When installing the flanged
antenna on a Creform pipe, install it so that the Creform pipe does not affect the antenna as shown in the figure.
Pipe must not protrude
from here.
Figure. Installation on pipe
4) When installing the antenna, adjust the antenna direction.
Install the antennas so that they face in the same direction as shown in the figure.
When the direction differs 90 degrees, the communication distance becomes short extremely.
Figure. Correct direction
Figure. Incorrect direction
5) Install the antenna at a position where an object does not hit it.
The antenna is not designed so that it can be hit by an object. If any impact is applied to the antenna, it may be
damaged. Even though the antenna may appear normal, wire breakage may occur inside the antenna, causing the
communication to fail.

To make the AGV recognize the intersection entrance, affix the address magnetic plate corresponding to the intersection address to a position where the address sensor can read it. (This description uses intersection address 1.)
Next, affix the command tape or count tape to a position where the stop command is instructed to the AGV. Make
the AGV read the address magnetic plate, and then recognize the stop command (stop count) after 100 ms. or
longer. Whether the approach to the intersection is permitted or not is determined upon completion of checking

After that, to make the AGV recognize the intersection exit, affix the address magnet (intersection address 0) that
clears the intersection address.
Install the address sensor so that it reads the address magnetic plate vertically to the traveling direction.
When there is an AGV that is passing through the intersection, the AGV remains stopped by the command tape

If the intersection positions are changed using the count change operation of the course 30 unit (2nd and 3rd

control and outputs the start command after it determines that the AGV is passing through the intersection.
A time lag occurs until the wireless intersection module recognizes the intersection, checks the wireless

ê 15-1. Warranty period
C aution
When the power is turned OFF, and then turned ON again, the intersection information of the wireless intersection module is initialized.
The waiting wireless intersection module cannot check the communication of the wireless intersection module
that is passing through the intersection. The waiting wireless intersection module enters the passing status upon
completion of checking specified by the monitoring time for permission to approach the intersection and radio
transmission count for checking the object approaching the intersection.
The intersection address is not retained when the power is turned OFF before the AGV is stopped by the
command or count after the intersection address has been recognized by the address sensor or RFID antenna.
It is necessary to travel the AGV again before the intersection address is recognized.
Regardless of AGV traveling or stopping, when the intersection address is recognized by the address sensor or
RFID antenna, the wireless intersection module recognizes that the intersection has been detected. Therefore,
turn OFF the power when moving the AGV manually.
