41 Preliminary noteThis document is part of the device and contains information about the correct handling of the product.This document is intended for specialists. These specialists are people who are qualified by their training and their experience to see risks and to avoid possible hazards that may be caused during operation or maintenance of the device.Read this document before use to familiarise yourself with operating conditions, installation and operation. Keep this document during the entire duration of use of the device.1.1 Symbols used►Instructions→Cross-referenceImportant noteNon-compliance can result in malfunction or interference.InformationSupplementary note2 Safety instructions2.1 GeneralObserve the operating instructions. Non-observance of the instructions, operation which is not in accordance with use as prescribed below, wrong installation or incorrect handling can affect the safety of operators and machinery.The installation and connection must comply with the applicable national and international standards. Responsibility lies with the person installing the device.The device must only be installed, connected and put into operation by a qualified electrician as the safe function of the device and machinery is only guaranteed when installation is correctly carried out.Disconnect the unit externally before handling it.In case of malfunction of the device or uncertainties please contact the manufacturer. Tampering with the device can seriously affect the safety of operators and machinery. This is not permitted and leads to an exclusion of liability and warranty.
5UK2.2 Radio equipmentIn general, radio equipment must not be used in the vicinity of petrol stations, fuel depots, chemical plants or blasting operations. ►Do not transport and store any flammable gases, liquids or explosive substances near the unit.2.3  Interference of electronic and medical devicesOperation can affect the function of electronic devices that are not correctly shielded. ►Disconnect the device in the vicinity of medical equipment. ►Contact the manufacturer of the corresponding device in case of any interference.3  Functions and featuresIn connection with the evaluation unit DTE10x the read/write head ANT512 enables non-contact reading and/or writing of the RFID transponders (ID-TAGs) conforming to the system.The data is converted into digitally coded values and provided to the evaluation unit.4 Functions4.1 Operating principleThe ID tags are operated passively, i.e. without battery. The energy required for operation is supplied by the read/write head.The physical principle of the energy transfer is based on inductive coupling. The integrated antenna coil in the read/write head generates a magnetic field which partly penetrates the antenna coil of the ID tag. A voltage is generated by induction that supplies the data carrier with energy.

The immediate vicinity of powerful HF emission sources such as welding transformers or converters can affect operation of the read/write heads.Information on the available mounting accessories is available on our website at:www.ifm.com  → data sheet search → ANT512 → Accessories5.2  Notes on ID tag mountingIf the ID tags are mounted in/on metal, the read/write distance is reduced. For positioning the ID tags the read/write heads are marked with an an-tenna symbol on the active face. It designates the middle of the integrated antenna coil and has to correspond with the middle of the ID tag.The orientation of the read/write head antenna axis must correspond with the axis of the ID tag coil.You can find out about the best way to position the available ID tags and on mounting in metal on our website:www.ifm.com  → data sheet search → ANT512 → Additional data(General information about mounting and operation)
7UK5.3 Avoiding interferenceThe device generates a modulated electrical field with a frequency of 125 kHz. To avoid interference of the data communication no other devices generating interference emission in this frequency band must be operated in its vicinity. Such devices are for example frequency converters and switched-mode power supplies.5.4 Mechanical designOn delivery the sensing face is facing the front.211:  Antenna head (can be aligned)2: Fixing elementFactory setting 5.5  Alignment of the sensing face180° 90°1.  Loosen the screw. 2.  Remove the antenna head from the fixing element and turn it.3.  Attach the fixing element to the antenna head.4.  Tighten the screw.
