Communication modules 7.8 RF180C 7.8 RF180C 7.8.1 Description Area of application The RF180C communication module is a module that can be used on any controller for operating RFID components over PROFINET IO. Figure 7-44 RF180C communication module When operating the RF180C on a SIMATIC S7, a convenient function module is made available to the user (FB 45). When using it on other controllers, please follow the appropriate instructions for parameterization and integration in the system.
Communication modules 7.8 RF180C Features Up to two readers / SLGs can be operated on the RF180C at the same time. The user can issue a command to 2 readers / SLGs simultaneously (FB 45 when operating on a SIMATIC S7). The tag data are accessed by means of physical addressing of the tag. In SIMATIC S7, the FB 45 is available for this purpose.
Communication modules 7.8 RF180C Layout The RF180C has the same housing as the distributed I/O system ET 200eco. For connecting to PROFINET IO, the RF180C communication module has a connection block of the M12, 7/8" type. The following figure shows the basic design of the RF180C.

Communication modules 7.8 RF180C 7.8.3.2 Assigning device names to the I/O device Introduction Each PROFINET IO device is assigned a unique device ID by the manufacturer (MAC address). Each RF180C IO device is addressed by its device name in the configuration and user program. For detailed information on addressing in PROFINET IO, refer to the PROFINET System Description.
Communication modules 7.8 RF180C Station flash test If you use more than one IO device, the dialog also displays more than one IO device. In this case, you should compare the MAC address of the device with the indicated MAC address and select the proper IO device. The identification of IO devices in a system is facilitated by a node flash test. The flash test is activated as follows: 1. In the Edit Ethernet Node dialog, select one of the indicated IO devices. 2. Press the button .

Glossary Active surface 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. 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.
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 Limit distance The limit distance is the maximum clear distance between the upper surface of the read/write device and the transponder, at which the transmission can still function under normal conditions. 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. 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.
