3.3Read and write techniques
RFID devices with working frequency of 13.56MHz (HF) form a spherical, homogeneous
electromagnetic field around the antenna. The operating range varies depending on the
device type. The transponder that is used (antenna geometry) also has a significant
influence. For exact data, please refer to the specifications of the read/write systems (see
also "Typical reading behavior" from page 11).
The front of the device (black) or the active side (equipped with LEDs, depends on model)
must not be enclosed by metal. A metal surface in the read field will likewise reduce the
operating range.
Notice!
The antenna surfaces of transponder and read/write system should be as parallel with one
another as possible at the read/write position.

Device description RFM - HF RFID Series
Figure 3.8:Reading from below (skid)
The detection field can only be attenuated, and the function thus impaired, by metal surfaces
and/or fluids on the transponder or RFM housing.
For this reason, we recommend the use of a nonmetal spacer between transponder and
base (e.g., spacer 50 HT which fits the disc transponders with a diameter of 50mm),
whereby a spacer height of 10mm is sufficient for a range of approx. 50mm.
For the read/write system, it is recommended that a space in front of and along the sides
equal to the "device dimensions + half the operating range" be kept completely free of metal
in order optimize performance (reading speed and operating range).
If, due to structural reasons, a metal surface is to enclose most of the device, a slit should
be sawed into one side of the surface in order to interrupt the metal short circuit for the
detection field.
Acceptable function and operating range can be achieved in this way even in metal.

3.5Networking - Leuze multiNet plus
Up to 30 RFM read/write systems can be networked via one MA 31 network master. For
this purpose, an MA 21 100.2 with unique station address is connected to each RFM read/
write system. Networking is via a parallel connection of the individual RS 485 interfaces of
the respective MA 21 100.2 units.
Leuze multiNet plus
In Leuze's proprietary multiNet plus network, the individual network devices transmit their
data upon request through the MA 31 network master in sequence. In addition, each
network device (MA 21 100.2) declared as a slave receives a device address which is set
with the aid of the rotary switch on the MA 21 100.2.
The master then transmits the data of all network devices to a primary PLC or a computer
via its host interface, i.e., it "collects" the data in the network and transmits it via an interface
to the host computer. This reduces interface costs (CPs) and time spent programming the
software.

Two-wire RS 485
The Leuze multiNet plus is optimized for fast transmission of scanner data to a primary
host computer. Physically, it consists of a two-wire RS 485 interface that is controlled by a
software protocol, the Leuze multiNet plus protocol. As a result, wiring of the network is
simple and economical, since the network connection is simply looped from one slave to
the next.
For the Leuze multiNet plus, a shielded, double-strand cable with twisted strands should
be used. This makes possible a total network length of up to 1200m. The M12 connection
technology simplifies wiring here.
3.6Leuze multiScan
The multiScan operation mode is based on the Leuze multiNet plus and links individual
readings from multiple RFID devices into a single read result. This is used, for example, on
a packet conveyor system on which the transponder can be affixed on the right side, on the
left side or on top, thereby requiring three read stations. So that the host does not need to
process one decoding result and two "No Reads", i.e. three readings for each package, a
multiScan arrangement is used to ensure that the multiScan master passes only one
reading from the three read stations to the host. As a result, the read/write system network
looks like just one RFID device to the host on the outside!
For this purpose, a multiScan master and one or more multiScan slaves are connected
together via the RS 485 interface. The multiScan function on the RS 485 interface is
possible for a minimum of 2 and a maximum of 30 devices.
The protocol set on the RS 485 interface is the multiNet protocol. As a result, during
multiScan operation on the RS 485 interface, the multiNet master also becomes a
multiScan master and the multiNet slaves become multiScan slaves (all multiNet slavesare, thus, integrated in multiScan operation).

5.3Mounting of the transponders
Self-adhesive transponder
When affixing, the surface must be dry, grease-free and clean in order to ensure secure
bonding. In the vicinity of the chip, the self-adhesive transponders must not be mounted
around corners or edges as damages could result. Recommended distance to metal/metal
foils: > 5mm. Intended for use in mechanically protected environments.
Disc transponder
Screw connection of the disc transponders only with sufficient play. Excessive tightening
of the fastening screw may result in damage to the transponder. Recommended distance
to metal/metal foils: > 5 mm. Also suitable for areas with slight mechanical loading.
High temperature transponder
High material expansions are possible due to high temperature differences that may occur
by using these transponders. The fastening of these transponders must, thus, absolutely
be loose.

5.4Device arrangement
5.4.1Selecting a mounting location
In order to select the right mounting location, several factors must be considered:
• Size, alignment (parallel to the read/write system) and position tolerance of the
transponder with respect to the object to be detected.
• The minimum and maximum reading distances determined from the read field of the
devices (see read field curves from page 11) are also transponder dependent.
• The reading location should be as free of metal as possible or at a defined distance
to metal.
• The transponder temperature at the reading location must be within the operating
temperature range.
• The distance between two adjacent devices should be twice as large as the maximum
operating range in order to avoid interference.
• The distance between the RFM / MA and the host system with respect to the permissible cable length of the interface.
The best read results are achieved if
• the transponder is moved over the middle of the antenna (device middle) with an
angular deviation less than ± 10 … 15° to parallelity
• at the reading location, the temperature of the transponder is less than 60°C and the
transponder is not wet
• the reading distance is in the middle part of the read field
• the transponders pass by the device individually

7Commissioning and configuration
With the Leuze RF-Config software program, a Windows-based graphical user interface is
available for configuring the RFID devices of the RFM series. Operating systems: Windows
2000, Windows XP, Windows Vista, Windows 7.
You can download the RF-Config software program from the Leuze website at –>
Download –> identify –> Stationary RFID read/write systems.
7.1Antenna tuning at the installation site
RFM 12 and RFM 32
The RFM 12 and RFM 32 devices are tuned so that the full operating range is ensured when
mounted in the standard manner or in a mounting holder with no metal in the area around
the active surface. The RFM32 can also be mounted directly on metal, though this results
in an approx. 10% reduction of the max. operating range.
RFM 62
With the RFM 62, a check and, if necessary, antenna tuning must always be performed after
mounting. To do this, first connect the device to the voltage supply, open the housing cover
and use the "environment" slide switch to set whether the distance of the RFM 62 to metal
surfaces is greater or less than 20mm.
Figure 7.1:RFM 62 antenna tuning
Leuze electronicRFM - HF RFID Series39
TNT 35/7-24V
Commissioning and configuration
Then push the "Initialize Trimming" button located on the lower edge of the electronics
cover once. One of the LEDs (yellow, green, red) begins to flash, indicating antenna tuning:
Yellow LED flashes:turn antenna tuning to left until the green LED illuminates.
Red LED flashes:turn antenna tuning to right until the green LED illuminates.
Green LED illuminates: no antenna tuning necessary.
Now push the "Initialize Trimming" button again. The device exits tuning mode and is again
ready for operation. By means of this tuning process, the device is optimally adjusted to the
environment of the installation location and the maximum operating range for data transmission to/from the transponder is enabled.
7.2Configuration via the service interface of the MA…
Device configuration using the service interface of the MA… connector unit (9-pin, Sub-D
connector) simplifies the configuration.
To configure, the PC with installed RF-Config software (administrator permissions not
required) is simply connected to the 9-pin, Sub-D plug connection of the MA… service
interface using a null modem cable (cross-wired cable with Sub-D connectors).
Configuration can also be performed by means of appropriate ASCII commands via the
serial process interface (host interface). The devices also use the process interface as a
service interface. It may be necessary to adjust the baud rate for downstream devices or
for service access!
7.3Commands and messages of the devices
The factory settings of the serial interface correspond to those of the other Leuze electronic
RFID devices.
The interface parameters are:
9600 baud, 1 start bit, 8 data bits , no parity, 1 stop bit.

Commissioning and configuration
Notice!
• The RFM 12 can only process 1 transponder in the field at a time.
• The RFM 32 can process up to 4 transponders simultaneously in the field
(commands ’N’ and ’W’).
• The RFM 62 can process up to 8 transponders simultaneously in the field
(commands ’N’ and ’W’).
Attention!
Any settings that are made do not take effect until transferred to the device!
Operation mode tab
The operation mode setting is important for automatic operation of the device. Here, you
set the function after activation/trigger (operation mode) and memory access (block
number).
Figure 7.3:RF-Config – Operation mode tab
Start block, number of blocks and block size are transponder dependent (see table 7.1). If
selected but not present, an error message is output.
For the "Write" online command, the Precharge function can also be set. In this case, the
write data are transferred to the read/write system before the transponder to be written is
located in the field. When the transponder does enter the field, it is automatically written
with the precharged data.

The configuration options range from activation or type of activation to the function of the
switching output to the setting of the code filter.
Attention!
Some parameters and functions are dependent on others, others are mutually exclusive.
Listed below are some of the most important configuration constellations for which such
dependencies exist:
•If the Precharge function = "Active" (address 01, bit 6), Tr i gg er must also = "Active"
(address 01, bit 4).
•If

"Not active" (address 01, bit 4) and
If these dependencies are not observed either in whole or in part, the "E10" error message
is returned by the device without any changes having been made to the device configuration.
Notice!
During the propagation time of the output signal (if activated), no transponders can be read.
