Selection criteria for SIMATIC RF200 components
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.
Transmission window and read/write distance
The reader generates an inductive alternating field. The field is strongest close to the reader; however, a read/write distance of "zero" between reader and transponder is not recommended.
The strength of the field decreases in proportion to the distance from the reader. The distribution of the field depends on the structure and geometry of the antennas in the reader and transponder
A prerequisite for the function of the transponder is a minimum field strength at the transponder, which is still barely achieved at distance S g
from the reader.

4.1 Fundamentals of application planning
From the diagrams above, it can also be seen that operation is possible within the area between S a
and S g
. The active operating area reduces as the distance increases, and shrinks to a single point at distance S g
. Only static mode should thus be used in the area between S a

The following approximation formula can be used for practical applications:

Tracking tolerances
The width of the transmission window (B) is particularly important for the mechanical tracking tolerance. The formula for the dwell time is valid without restriction when B is observed.

Operation in static and dynamic mode
Operation in static mode
If working in static mode, the transponder can be operated up to the limit distance (S g
). The transponder must then be positioned exactly over the reader:

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 (S a
) is of primary importance.

Communication time between transponder and communication module
4.1.7
Communication between communication module, reader and transponder
Communication between the communication module, reader and transponder takes place asynchronously through the RS422 interface. Depending on the communication module
(ASM) used, transfer rates of 19200 baud, 57600 baud or 115200 baud can be selected.
Calculation of the communication time for interference-free transfer
The communication time for fault-free data transfer is calculated as follows: t
K
= +
Byte
⋅ n ( n >1)
If the transmission is interrupted briefly due to external interference, the reader automatically continues the command.
Calculation of the maximum amount of user data
The maximum amount of user data is calculated as follows: t k

In dynamic mode, the values for K and t byte
are independent of the transmission speed. The communication time only includes the processing time between the reader and the transponder and the internal system processing time of these components. The communication times between the communication module and the reader do not have to be taken into account because the command for reading or writing is already active when the transponder enters the transmission field of the reader.
The values shown above must be used when calculating the maximum quantity of user data in dynamic mode. They are applicable for both writing and reading.

Impact of secondary fields
Secondary fields in the range from 0 mm to 30% of the limit distance (S g
) 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.
When working in dynamic mode, remember that during the transition from the secondary field to the main field the presence of the tag is lost temporarily. It is therefore advisable to select a distance > 30% of S g
.

Note
Effect on inductive fields by not maintaining the minimum distances of the readers
If the values fall below those specified in the "Minimum distance from reader to reader" table, there is a risk of the function being affected by inductive fields. In this case, the data transfer time would increase unpredictably or a command would be aborted with an error.
Adherence to the values specified in the "Minimum distance from reader to reader" table is therefore essential.
If the specified minimum distance cannot be complied with due to the physical configuration, the SET-ANT command can be used to activate and deactivate the HF field of the reader.
The application software must be used to ensure that only one reader is active (antenna is switched on) at a time.

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. Some points need to be
considered during planning and installation if the values described in the "Field data
(Page 28)" section are to retain their validity:
● Minimum spacing between two readers or their antennas
● Minimum distance between two adjacent data memories
● Metal-free area for flush-mounting of readers or their antennas and transponders in metal
● Mounting of multiple readers or their antennas on metal frames or racks
The following sections describe the impact on the operation of the RFID system when mounted in the vicinity of metal.

Problem
A metal rack is located above the transmission window of the reader.
This affects the entire field. In particular, the transmission window between reader and transponder is reduced.

Problem
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:
0HWDO
Remedy:
Enlargement of the non-metallic spacer below the transponder and/or reader.
The transponder and/or reader are
10 to 20 mm higher than the metal surround.
(The value x ≥ 100 mm is valid, for example, for RF260R. It indicates that, for a distance x ≥ 100 mm, the reader can no longer be significantly affected by metal.)
Remedy:
Increase the non-metallic distance a, b.
The following rule of thumb can be used:
• Increase a, b by a factor of 2 to 3 over the values specified for metal-free areas
• Increasing a, b has a greater effect for readers or transponders with a large limit distance than for readers or transponders with a small limit distance.

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.
Mounting of several readers on metal racks Problem: Interaction between readers
Remedy
Increase the distance D between the two readers.

Insert a non-metallic spacer of 20 to 40 millimeter thickness between the reader and the iron frame. This will significantly reduce the induction of stray fields on the rack:

Effects of metal on different transponders and readers
Mounting different transponders and readers on metal or flush-mounting
Certain conditions have to be observed when mounting the transponders and readers on metal or flush-mounting. For more information, please refer to the descriptions of the individual transponders and readers in the relevant section.
4.3.4
Impact of metal on the transmission window
In general, the following points should be considered when mounting RFID components:
● Direct mounting on metal is allowed only in the case of specially approved transponders.
● Flush-mounting of the components in metal reduces the field data; a test is recommended in critical applications.
● When working inside the transmission window, it should be ensured that no metal rail (or similar part) intersects the transmission field.
The metal rail would affect the field data.
The impact of metal on the field data (S g
, S a
, L) is shown in a table in this section. The values in the table describe the reduction of the field data in % with reference to non-metal
(100% means no impact).

4.3 Installation guidelines
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). You can cascade the antenna splitters in such a way that up to 4 antennas can be connected at the same time.
The antenna multiplexer RF260X works only in PC mode (RS-232) in time division multiplex mode. This means that each antenna operates with full power for a certain time before the device moves on automatically to the next antenna. The antenna multiplexer normally operates in scan mode or buffered read mode which add the information about the antenna number to the reply of the transponder. With the antenna multiplexer, you can connect up to
6 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.

4.3 Installation guidelines
Antenna installation
Configuring instructions
The antenna installation described below enables detection of transponders moving horizontally through the installation. Depending on the installation (antennas exactly opposite each other or offset in parallel), the label is aligned in parallel with the antennas or arbitrarily.
The size of the sensing range depends on the label alignment:
Note
Remember that the entire acquisition range of the antenna is larger than the transmission window in which the transponder is normally configured. This means there can be label alignments where even labels outside the transmission window will be identified. Labels aligned in parallel with the antennas, for example, can also be detected at larger distances beside or outside the antenna range.
For this reason, goods with labels must not be stored within a distance of up to 0.5 m from the installation. If this cannot be complied with, the antennas must be shielded.
To achieve three-dimensional detection of the labels in the sensing range, the following requirements must be met:
• The gate width must be less than or equal to 800 mm.
• The antenna size of the labels should be at least the size of an ISO card (85 mm x 54 mm).
• The distance from label to label must be greater than 100 mm. The distance from label to label can be reduced if the gate width is correspondingly reduced. This applies especially for distances under 50 mm.
• There should be no more than 16 labels within the sensing range of the antennas at the same time.
The number of labels can be increased if the gate width is correspondingly reduced and the maximum speed suitably adapted.
• The maximum speed of the labels must not exceed 1 m/s. (This depends on the number and alignment of the labels, the number of data blocks to be processed, the data protocol required and the label type).
• To the front and sides of the antenna, there must be a distance of more than 150 mm to metal parts.
• There must be no interference to the write/read device from other electrical equipment in the surrounding area.
Note
The RF290R reader is not capable of multitag operation in the CM mode.

Installation information
The cables on the antennas and the antenna splitter are 3.3 m or 10.5 m long. The write/read device must be installed in the vicinity of the antennas. If there are greater distances between the write/read device and the antennas, the antenna cable can be increased by 7.2 m with the extension (6GT2 691-0DH72). This results in shorter ranges.

Metal in the vicinity of the antennas
If metal in the vicinity of the antennas cannot be avoided, the following must be noted:
● There must be a minimum allround gap of 100 mm between the antenna and metal.
Serious loss of sensing range must be expected above 50 mm. There is no discernible influence at distances greater than 150 mm from the metal.
● The influence of the metal depends heavily on its size and shape. Thin metal rods have less influence on the magnetic field than large surfaces.
● Larger metal surfaces (edge length > 50 mm) in parallel with the antennas or labels result in a short-circuit of the magnetic lines of force. As a result, the labels cannot be read.
● Metal parts under the conveyor belt change the direction of the magnetic lines of force.
Serious loss of sensing range must be expected as a result. Horizontally aligned labels cannot be read in such cases.
● The metal parts must not form closed loops or circuits. If necessary, these must be electrically interrupted at one point.

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.
Notes on installing and laying the antenna cable
To suppress possible interference, an EMC hinged ferrite choke must be fitted to the antenna cables (as well as the antenna cable between the reader and the antenna splitter).
The coaxial cable must be wound tightly at least four times through the EMC ring core. The maximum distance between the connecting plug for the reader or the antenna splitter and the ring core must be 100 mm.
The antenna cable must always be run vertically from the antennas. A minimum distance of
200 mm to the antennas must be observed as the cables continue. Otherwise, performance losses must be expected.
There must be a distance of at least 300 mm between antenna cables and parallel power cables.
Unrequired cable length must be secured in a bundle with a diameter of 100 to 150 mm.
If the standard antenna cable is too short, it can be increased by 7.20 m with the extension.
Slight range losses must be expected here.
To achieve optimal read ranges, the antenna cable should not be shortened or lengthened.

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.

Digital output (DO):
At the relay output, a NO contact is available. The output is electrically isolated from the reader electronics and therefore needs to be supplied externally.
NOTICE
Reader may be damaged
If you exceed the maximum permitted voltage of 24 V / 1 A at the relay output, the reader may be damaged. Make sure that the voltage does not exceed 24 V.
The output is intended only for switching resistive loads. If it is used to switch inductive loads, the reader may be damaged. Make sure that if inductive loads occur, the relay contacts are protected by an external suppressor circuit.

Principle of operation
You can operate up to six antennas on one reader by using the multiplexer RF260X. 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.

Parameterization
Parameter settings can be performed using the tool "RF290R-Set" (V9.5.2).
This tool is primarily used for parameterization and commissioning, and is not designed for productive operation.
The relevant parameters of the RF260X can be set in the "Configuration" menu under
"SystemParameters > CFG15: Antenna Multiplexing" ①
Figure 7-3 Menu "Configuration" MOBYDSet"
● For operation with RF260X, you need to activate the "Multiplexing" function ② .
● The number of occupied channels must be specified under "Number of Output Channels"
② .
● In "Multiplexer Valid Times" ③ , the maximum time available for the antenna to read a transponder is entered. Following this time, the device switches to the next antenna automatically. If the read was successful, the time may be significantly shorter than specified here.

Note
Changing the parameter assignment
• Note that if you change the parameter settings of the reader or the RF260X in scanner mode, this may lead to frame collisions. These collisions result when the frame is sent while a transponder is present.
• The "Transponder response time" (setting: "CFG2: COM interface") during operation of the RF260X must be higher than the total delay time for all the connected antennas
(CFG15: MUX-VALD-TIME × Number of Output Channels ≤ Transponder Response
Time)

RF260X commands
Using the tool "RF290R-Set" (V9.5.2), certain commands can also be sent to the RF260X. In the "Commands" menu under "RF260X", the following commands can be sent:
● Detect (detection of the RF260X by the reader)
● Channel Select (set to a static channel)
● CPU-Reset (restart the RF260X software)
● Software Version (read out software and hardware versions)

Note
Validity of the error codes
The following error codes apply only to RF200 readers with an S-422 interface (CM mode)
You can determine the error code in two ways:
● directly on the reader/CM by counting the flashing pattern of the red error LED
● Through the FB45 variable "error_MOBY".

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.
Byte
A group of eight bits forms a byte
CE marking
Communauté Européenne (product mark of the European Union)
Communication modules
Communication modules ensure the integration of the MOBY and SIMATIC RF identification systems into SIMATIC, SINUMERIK, SIMOTION, PROFIBUS, PROFINET and TCP/IP.
Once supplied with the corresponding parameters and data, they handle data communication. They then make the corresponding results and data available.
Corresponding software blocks (FBs/FCs for SIMATIC) guarantee simple and quick integration into the application.
Data transmission rate
Unit of measurement for the volume of data transmitted within a unit of time, e.g. bytes/s
Detection area
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.
Dwell time
The dwell time is the time in which the transponder dwells within the transmission window of a read/write device. The read/write device can exchange data with the transponder during this time.

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.
Electromagnetic compatibility
Electromagnetic compatibility is the ability of an electrical or electronic device to operate satisfactorily in an electromagnetic environment without affecting or interfering with the environment over and above certain limits.
EMC Directive
Guidelines for electromagnetic compatibility This guideline relates to any electrical or electronic equipment, plant or system containing electric or electronic components.
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. It is necessary to compensate for these differences by equipotential bonding: this is done by combining the equipotential bonding conductors of power components and non-power components on a centralized equalizing conductor.
ESD Directive
Directive for handling ESDs.
Frequency hopping
Frequency hopping technique Automatic search for free channels.
In frequency hopping, data packets are transferred between the communication partners on constantly changing carrier frequencies. This makes it possible to react to interference from devices transmitting signals in the same frequency range. If an attempt to send a data packet is unsuccessful, the packet can be transmitted again on a different carrier frequency.
Interface modules (ASM)
See communication modules
Limit distance
The limit distance (S g
) is the maximum clear distance between the upper surface of the read/write device and the transponder at which transmission still functions under normal conditions.

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.
Mobile data storage units (MDS)
See transponder
Multi-tag capability
Multi-tag capability means the ability to use several read/write devices which communicate simultaneously with different data carriers.
Programmable logic controller (PLC)
The programmable logic controllers (PLC) of the SIMATIC S5 system consist of a central controller, one or more CPUs, and various other modules (e.g. I/O modules).
Read/write devices (SLG)
See readers
Read/write distance
See transmission distance
Readers
Readers ensure fast, secure data transfer between mobile data storage units and higherlevel systems (PLCs, PCs, etc.). The data, energy included, are transmitted inductively across an electromagnetic alternating field or by radio. This principle enables contact-free data transmission, ensures high industrial compatibility and works reliably in the presence of contamination or through non-metallic materials.

Operating distance between transponder and reader
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.
Secondary fields should not be used in configuring.

See limit distance
Static mode
In static mode the transponder is positioned at a fixed distance (maximum: limit distance) exactly above the read/write device.
Tag
See transponder
Telegram cycles
The transfer of a read or write command takes place in three cycles, known as message frame cycles. 1 or 2 bytes of user data can be transferred with each command. The acknowledgement transfer (status or read data) takes place in 3 further cycles.
Transmission distance
Distance between communication module (read/write device) and transponder (mobile data storage unit)
Transmission window
Area in which reliable data exchange between transponder and read/write device is possible due to a particular minimum field strength.

Transponder
Glossary
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.
Because of their wireless design, transponders can be used, if necessary, at individual work locations or manufacturing stations, where their data can be read and updated.
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.
