System overview 3 SIMATIC RF200 is an inductive identification system that is compatible with the ISO 15693 standard and was specially designed for use in industrial production for the control and optimization of material flows. In contrast to SIMATIC RF300, SIMATIC RF200 is intended for RFID applications where performance requirements are not very high, for example with regard to data volume, transfer rate or diagnostics options. SIMATIC RF200 is characterized by particularly favorable prices.

RF200 system planning 4.1 Fundamentals of application planning 4.1.1 Selection criteria for SIMATIC RF200 components 4 Assess your application according to the following criteria, in order to choose the right SIMATIC RF200 components: ● Static or dynamic data transfer ● Data volume to be transferred ● Speed in case of dynamic transfer ● Ambient conditions such as relative humidity, temperature, chemical impacts, etc. 4.1.

RF200 system planning 4.1 Fundamentals of application planning From the diagrams above, it can also be seen that operation is possible within the area between Sa and Sg. 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.
RF200 system planning 4.1 Fundamentals of application planning 4.1.4 Permissible directions of motion of the transponder Detection area and direction of motion of the transponder The transponder and reader have no polarization axis, i.e. the transponder can come in from any direction, assume any position as parallel as possible to the reader, and cross the transmission window.
RF200 system planning 4.1 Fundamentals of application planning Note Note that in a metallic environment the values for the limit distance are reduced. 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.
RF200 system planning 4.1 Fundamentals of application planning The dwell time can be of any duration in static mode. 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: tv ≥ tK 4.1.

The calculation tools can be found on the DVD "RFID Systems Software & Documentation", order number 6GT2080-2AA20.
RF200 system planning 4.1 Fundamentals of application planning 4.1.8 Impact of secondary fields Secondary fields in the range from 0 mm to 30% of the limit distance (Sg) generally always exist. 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.

RF200 system planning 4.3 Installation guidelines 4.3 Installation guidelines 4.3.1 Overview The transponder and reader complete with their antennas are inductive devices. Any type of metal in the vicinity of these devices affects their functionality.
RF200 system planning 4.3 Installation guidelines Flush-mounting Flush-mounting of transponders and readers Problem 1RQ PHWDOOLF VSDFHU Flush-mounting of transponders and readers is possible in principle. However, the size of the transmission window is significantly reduced. The following measures can be used to counteract the reduction of the window: 6KHHW 0HWDO 5HDGHUV 0HWDO Remedy: Enlargement of the non-metallic spacer below the transponder and/or reader.
RF200 system planning 4.3 Installation guidelines Mounting of several readers on metal frames or racks Any reader mounted on metal couples part of the field to the metal frame. 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. Longer data transfer times or sporadic error messages at the communication module are the result.

RF200 system planning 4.3 Installation guidelines 4.3.5 Installation and connection of 2 to 6 antennas with one reader If several antennas need to be operated on one reader, this can be achieved by using the antenna splitter or the antenna multiplexer RF260X. 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).
RF200 system planning 4.3 Installation guidelines 4.3.5.1 Installation options with the antenna splitter (2-4 antennas) Possible configurations of the antennas The antenna installations described here have been designed for reading smartlabels (transponders) on goods on conveyor belts, conveyor systems or pallets. A prerequisite is that there are no magnetically conducting materials (e.g. metal) in the vicinity of the antenna or the label.

RF200 system planning 4.3 Installation guidelines ● 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.
RF200 system planning 4.4 Further information 4.3.5.3 Installation options with the antenna multiplexer (2-6 antennas) You can operate up to six antennas on one reader via the multiplexer. The data is processed sequentially. Antenna switchover is performed in time-multiplex mode, so by connecting several antennas together, the processing time / activation time per antenna is lengthened accordingly. :LGH UDQJH SRZHU VXSSO\ XQLW 9'& 5) 5 3* 3& $QWHQQD $QWHQQD Figure 4-19 4.

Appendix A.
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.
Glossary 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.
Glossary 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.
Glossary 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.
Glossary 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.
