• EC Directives EN50081-2

• EC Directives EN50082

7 EN/IEC Standards

• In connection with EC unification, eighteen European countries will integrate

their conventional safety standards into EN standards. When the EN standards come into effect, they will apply as the unified European standards in place of the conventional safety standards.

• EN standards are based on IEC standards. Therefore, machines that are ex-

ported to Europe from Asia or North America must satisfy EN standards. Otherwise, the machines must satisfy IEC standards if the machines do not fall under EN standards.

xvii

Page 15

• The CE marking is provided by EC Directives. A product bearing a CE marking

meets the safety standards specified by all relevant EC Directives. If the product is a machine, it must satisfy the EC Machinery Directive, Low-voltage Directive (LVD), and EMC requirements of the EC Directives. The product must satisfy the EMC and LVD requirements of the EC Directives, if the product is a home electronics appliance or office machine. Machines bearing CE markings can be freely exported to European countries. In other words, a CE marking is the passport for export to Europe.

• EC Directives are provided for the purpose of European unification. Approxi-

mately 300 EC Directives have been passed. EC Directives for machines are called Machine Directives. According to the Machine Directives (EC Directive Document number 89/392/EEC), machines exported to Europe on and after January 1, 1995 must bear CE markings.

• EMC standards are for electro-magnetic compatibility. A machine must satisfy

the EMC requirements of EC directives by taking countermeasures against EMI (electro-magnetic interference) and EMC (electro-magnetic susceptibility).

Electromagnetic Inductive RFID System

The V700-series Electromagnetic Inductive RFID System as a combined system of Controller(s), ID Tag(s), and Antenna(s) satisfies EC Directive requirements. The following is a list of applicable V700-series products and corresponding standards.

Highly Functional RFID System

Ease of Use

The V700-CD1D incorporates an RS-232C interface, thus connecting to personal computers and Programmable Controllers (PCs) over RS-232C to process large amounts of data flexibly with simple commands.

The V700-H01 is a standard antenna that is 250 by 200 mm in size, ideal for long-distance communications, and ensuring a minimum communications distance of 250 mm. The V700-H02 is a wide-field antenna that is 650 by 200 mm in size. Compared with the V700-H01, the V700-H02 provides rough positioning and better communications with ID Tags moving at high-speed.

The V700-D23P31 Data Carrier is resistant to harsh environments and can hold data for 200 hours at 180°C. The V700-D13P21 Data Carrier is thinner (i.e.,

1.2 mm thick), making it more suitable for applications in which size is a major consideration.

The RFID System operates in either multiple, simultaneous access mode or FIFO (first-in, first-out) read/write mode. In multiple, simultaneous access mode, if there is more than one ID Tag in the communications area, the RFID System reads and writes data from and to the all ID Tags at one time. In FIFO read/write mode, the RD-ID System reads and writes data to one ID Tag after another as they come into the communications area.

The C200H-PRO27-E Programming Console (sold separately) can be connected to the RFID System over the V700-P10 Programming Console Conversion Cable (sold separately). With the Programming Console, the communications condition of the System can be monitored on-line. Furthermore, the error log of the System and the ambient noise measurement in the communications area can be read with ease. All these functions make it possible to start up the System quickly and improve the efficiency of on-site maintenance work on the System.

V700-D23P31 can be, however, in normal operation (i.e., the V700-D23P31 located in the communications area) at a maximum of 70°C. This means the temperature of the ID Tag itself in operation must not exceed 70°C. Before using the ID Tag, conduct some tests and check that the temperature of the ID Tag itself in operation is 70°C maximum. If the temperature of the ID Tag is 180°C, it normally takes a period of one minute for the temperature to drop to 70°C for an ambient temperature of 25°C. Take this into consideration when cooling down the ID Tag.

Functions

Page 36

3-1 Single, FIFO Read/Write, and Multiple, Simultaneous

Access Functions

Three communication modes are available depending on the number or state of Tags in the communication area. Commands can be used for selecting one of them. Refer to Section 5 Communications Functions for details.

3-1SectionSingle, FIFO Read/Write, and Multiple, Simultaneous Access Functions

Single Mode

FIFO Read/Write Mode

In this mode, only a single ID Tag can be in the communications area, otherwise a communications error will result.

In the FIFO (first-in, first-out) read/write mode, the RFID System reads and writes data to and from each ID Tag coming into the communications area one after another. Since every ID Tag finished with communications is set to access prohibit, communications will be possible if only one ID Tag newly arrives in the communication area of the Antenna where more than one ID Tag exists. An error, however, results if two or more ID Tags arrive in the communications area simultaneously. When the access-prohibited Tag moves out of the communications area, communications will become possible again.

Multiple, Simultaneous Access Mode

In this mode, communications with all ID Tags in the communications area can be made on receipt of the command.

Page 37

Note In FIFO read/write mode, make sure that multiple ID Tags do not arrive in the

communications area together, otherwise a communications error will result and further communications will not be possible until there is only a single ID Tag in the communications area.

3-2 Memory Check Function

3-4SectionMutual Interference Preventive Function (Synchronous Function)

Memory Check from Controller

The MEMORY CHECK command is available for checking if the memory of the ID Tag is destroyed or accidentally overwritten. Refer to 5-9-7 MEMORY CHECK (MC) for details.

3-3 Write Protect Function

The WRITE PROTECT command is available independently on each page (i.e., eight bytes), which prevents important data in the ID Tag from overwritten by mistake. Refer to 5-9-9 WRITE PROTECT (WP) for details.

3-4 Mutual Interference Preventive Function (Synchronous

Function)

This function can reduce the mutual interference distance of each Antenna.

If two or more Antennas are close to one another, they will not operate properly due to mutual interference. It is possible to reduce the mutual interference distance of each Antenna by connecting the Controllers together over synchronous cables through the SYNC terminal as shown below. In this example, one of the Controller connected in series is set as the Master and the others are set as Slaves. Be sure to set the termination resistance of the Controller at each end to ON and that of other Controllers to OFF. A maximum of 32 Controllers including the Master and 31 Slaves can be connected within a total cable distance of 300 m maximum. Refer to page 31, DIP Switch Settings, page 39, SYNC signal Wiring, and 8-6 Mutual Interference of Antenna for the settings, cable connec- tions, and mutual interference distance in detail.

Page 38

3-5SectionEnergy-saving Mode

There are two types of synchronous functions to reduce the mutual interference distance of each Antenna. These functions are called R/W (read/write) synchronous and RO (read-only) synchronous functions. Both READ and WRITE commands are available to the R/W synchronous function. Only the READ command is available to the RO synchronous function. The RO synchronous function requires a shorter communications time than the R/W synchronous function. Refer to 8-4 Communications Time and page 31, DIP Switch Settings for details.

Precautions

Make sure that all Controllers connected are in the same synchronous type (i.e., in R/W synchronous operation, OR synchronous operation, or not in synchronous operation), otherwise the communications of all Controllers may be affected.

3-5 Energy-saving Mode

The RFID System can be set to energy-saving mode.

In case commands can be issued only during communications, the Antenna power can be shut down to reduce the total power consumption of the RFID System. In energy-saving mode, the power consumption of the RFID System is approximately 30% of that in normal operation.

If the Controller is set to energy-saving mode, the Antenna will have output only at the time of communications. This mode is available while a communications command is issued to select the single trigger, single auto, or multi-trigger option.

3-6 Long-distance Mode and Stable Communications Mode

(Communications Distance Setting)

3-8SectionError Logging Function

Long-distance Mode

Stable Communications Mode

In order to perform long-distance communications, the RFID System automatically selects the amplification factor when the Antenna receives signals from the ID Tag. If the ID Tag is far, the amplification factor increases automatically in order to receive the weak signal of the ID Tag.

If there is excessive noise (particularly, air-conditioner noise), the automatic selection of the amplification factor should be suppressed. If this automatic selection is suppressed, the RFID System cannot communicate with far ID Tags but the RFID can perform stable communications even under an environment where noise is prevalent.

The RFID System allows a selection of either long-distance mode (automatic selection of amplification factor) or stable-communications mode (no change in amplification factor). Refer to page 31, DIP Switch Settings for details.

3-7 Noise Environment Measurement Function

Noise environment around the location where the Antenna is installed can be checked using the Programming Console.

Use this function to arrange the best location and best direction of the Antenna or to determine whether to set the Controller to long-distance mode or stable communications mode. It is recommended that this function be used to check the noise environment before installing the RFID System.

To use this function, connect the C200H-PRO27-E Programming Console (sold separately) through the V700-P10 Programming Console Conversion Cable (sold separately) to the Controller. Refer to 6-6-8 Noise Environment Check for details.

3-8 Error Logging Function

The error log data of the RFID System can be read on-line through the Programming Console.

Two types of error log data can be read, which makes it possible to analyze system errors.

Page 40

3-8SectionError Logging Function

1. Latest Error Log

2. Statistic Error Log

The Controller keeps a record of errors resulted in RUN mode after the Controller is turned ON. The Programming Console can read information on these errors, thus making it possible to find causes of errors. The Controller keeps a record of a maximum of 30 errors. New errors replace the existing record in chronological order beginning with the oldest error record. The records will be completely lost when the Controller is turned OFF or reset or when it receives a RESET command.

The Controller classifies and keeps the number of each type of error. The Controller also calculates MCBF (mean cycle between failures) simultaneously. The Controller keeps all these data items until the user turns OFF or resets the Controller.

To use this function, connect the C200H-PRO27-E Programming Console (sold separately) to the Controller through the V700-P10 Programming Console Conversion Cable (sold separately). Refer to 6-6-9 Latest Error Data and 6-6-10 Sta- tistic Error Data for details.

Note The record of all errors will be lost when the Controller is turned OFF or reset or

when it receives a RESET command. Do not turn OFF or reset the Controller in order to keep the records.

Node Number

4-1SectionController

If more than one Controller is connected to a single host through Link Adapters, each Controller needs an ID number so that the host can discriminate each of them. Such an ID number is called node number. Each Controller must have a unique node number.

Each command or response of the Controller includes the node number of the Controller. Communications will not be possible if the node number is wrong. The node number must be correctly set regardless of whether the host is connected to a single or multiple Controllers.

As shown below, SW1 on the left is for 10’s digit and SW2 on the right is for 1’s digit, which can set numbers within a range between 00 and 31.

The maximum power consumption of the Controller is 20 W (i.e., 0.8 A at 24 VDC). An inrush current, however, will flow when the Controller is turned ON. Take this into consideration when preparing the power supply. A power supply with an output of 1.1 A min. at 24 VDC is recommended.

Note 1. If the Antenna and power supply are too close, some noise generated from

the power supply may interfere the communications of the Antenna. Make sure that there is a distance of 1 m or more between the Antenna and power supply.

2. If the Controller and Antenna are too close, the Controller may interfere with the communications between the Antenna and ID Tag. Make sure that there is a distance of 80 cm or more between the Controller and Antenna.

3. Provide 24 VDC to the Controller. The permissible variation of the power

that the supply voltage is within this range.

4. The maximum power consumption of the Controller is 20 W. An inrush current of approximately 30 A at 24 VDC, however, flows when the Controller is turned ON. Take this into consideration when preparing the power supply.

5. Provide a power wire with a thickness of at least AWG18 in order to prevent the dropping of voltage. It is recommended that twisted-pair wire be used for the power line.

6. Ground the Controller at a resistance of less than 100

Ω to protect the Con-

troller from noise interference. The thickness of the ground wire must be at least AWG18. If two or more Controllers are connected to one another in synchronous operation, be sure to ground the Controller located at either end of the system at a resistance of less than 100 Ω and connect the ground terminals of other Controllers with the shielded wire of the synchronous cable. If the Controller is not ground properly, it may not operate.

4-2 Installation of Antenna

4-2-1 Installation Environment

Installation Location

Do not install the Antenna in the following locations.

• The ambient temperature is not within a range between –20°C and 55°C or

locations with radical temperature changes resulting in condensation.

• The humidity is not within a range between 35% and 80%.

• There is corrosive gas, flammable gas, dust, salt, or metal powder.

• The Antenna will be subjected to direct vibration or shock.

Countermeasures Against Noise

The communications range of the Antenna drops due to ambient noise. Refer to 8-2 Communications Distance Characteristics vs. Ambient Noise for details.

The following provides information on countermeasures against ambient noise.

4-2SectionInstallation of Antenna

Power Lines and High-tension Lines

Inverters, Motors, and Other Driving Mechanisms

Displays of Personal Computers and Programmable Terminals

Switching Power Supplies

Do not wire the Antenna cable along with high-tension lines or power lines. Keep the Antenna cable as far away as possible from them.

Be sure to ground the frames of driving mechanisms and keep them as far away as possible from the Antenna.

Keep the displays of personal computers and Programmable Terminals as far away as possible from the Antenna.

Be sure to ground switching power supplies and keep them as far away as possible from the Antenna.

If the Antenna is still influenced by noise in spite of the above countermeasures taken, the communications range must be reduced.

The Controller in stable communications mode rather than long-distance mode withstands more ambient noise although the communications range decreases.

Note Keep the above in mind before installing the Antenna. Before the Antenna is put

in actual use, be sure to conduct enough tests of the Antenna.

4-2-2 Mounting the Antenna

Be sure to attach the provided bracket to the Antenna and mount the Antenna with four, M4 screws with spring washers and flat washers as shown below.

5-1 Commands and Responses

In order to communicate with the ID Tag in the communications area of the Antenna, commands must be selected and used according to the mode and movement of the ID Tag.

ID Tags in Communications Area

ID Tags operate in single mode, FIFO read/write mode, or multiple, simultaneous access mode according to the number and provided conditions of ID Tags in the communications area.

5-1SectionCommands and Responses

Single Mode

FIFO Read/Write Mode

In single mode, only a single ID Tag can exist in the communications area. A communications error will result if there are two or more ID Tags in the communications area.

In the FIFO (first-in, first-out) read/write mode, the RD-ID System reads and writes data to and from each ID Tag coming into the communications area one after another. Since every ID Tag finished with communications is set to access prohibit, communications will be possible if only one ID Tag newly arrives in the communication area of the Antenna where more than one ID Tag exists. An error, however, results if two or more ID Tags arrive in the communications area simultaneously. When the access-prohibited Tag moves out of the communications area, communications will become possible again.

Page 62

5-2SectionMovement of ID Tag and Command

Multiple, Simultaneous Access Mode

In this mode, communications with all ID Tags in the communications area can be made on receipt of the command.

Note In FIFO read/write mode, make sure that multiple ID Tags do not arrive in the

communications area together, otherwise a communications error will result and further communications will not be possible until there is only a single ID Tag in the communications area.

5-2 Movement of ID Tag and Command

5-2-1 Operating Condition of Controller

Ready to Receive Command

In this state, the Controller has no command in process and the Controller is ready to receive any command other than a subcommand. When a command is received, the Controller starts processing the command.

Processing Command (Except POLLING AUTOREAD Command)

Awaiting POLLING AUTOREAD Subcommand

After a command is received by the Controller, the Controller ignores the next command until the Controller processes the command and returns a response. The Controller, however, accepts the STOP or RESET command anytime.

This is the state in which the Controller has received the POLLING AUTOREAD command. The Controller is ready to receive the STOP command, RESET command, or any POLLING subcommand. POLLING subcommands are used for checking the condition of approaching ID Tags or canceling the POLLING AUTOREAD command.

Page 63

5-2-2 Trigger Mode

5-2SectionMovement of ID Tag and Command

In trigger mode, the Controller communicates with the ID Tag in the communications area provided that the ID Tag is not moving. Therefore, it is necessary to check that the ID Tag is at a standstill in the communications area. If the ID Tag is not in the communications area, an error response is returned.

2. The Controller communicates with the ID Tag for data processing according to the command.

3. After the data is processed, the Controller returns a response indicating that the Controller is finished with data processing. The host receives the response and waits for the next ID Tag to approach.

Note When operating the system in trigger mode, make sure that the ID Tag in the

communications area is at a standstill.

Page 64

5-2-3 Automatic Mode

In automatic mode, the Controller does not return a response to the host while an ID Tag to be processed is approaching the communications area. During this time the communications path between the host and Controller is kept busy. Therefore, the host cannot send the next command.

In repeat mode, when the Controller receives a command from the host, the Controller wait for the arrival of an ID Tag to be processed. No response is returned from the Controller while the ID Tag is approaching the communications area. Whenever an ID Tag passes through the communications area, the Controller communicates with the ID Tag and returns a response to the host. In this mode, the next command other than the STOP or RESET command is not accepted until the operation of the Controller is stopped or reset with the STOP or

5-2-5 Polling Auto Mode

If a normal AUTO command is sent to one of the Controllers while a single host is controlling more than one Controller, the communications path between the host and the Controller receiving the AUTO command will be kept busy and the host will not be able to control any other Controller. However, if the POLLING AUTO command is sent instead, the Controller will return a response at the request of the host. In this way, the communications path to the host will not be kept busy. Therefore, the host can send a command to another Controller. While the POLLING AUTO command is executed, no command other than the POLLING subcommand, RESET command, or STOP command can be executed.

within the communications area of the Antenna and sends a response. After completing communications, the Controller disables Tag operation. After sending a response, the Controller is set to a standby state and waits for a new command.

MR Multi-repeat The Controller waits for approaching Tags, communicates with all the Tags within the

communications area of the Antenna, and sends a response. After completing communications, the Controller is set to a standby state and waits for approaching Tags. The Controller repeats this processing until it receives a STOP or RESET command.

5-7 Explanation of Commands and Responses

The transmission of a command from the host to the Controller or the transmission of a response from the Controller to the host varies with the type of command and the difference in communications designation.

No Response

One to One

Multiple Responses

When the Controller receives the RESET command, the Controller is reset without returning a response and waits for the next command.

Host

Controller

If the single trigger, single auto, FIFO trigger, or FIFO auto option is specified for communications with the ID Tag or a command not for communications with the ID Tag is specified, a single response will be returned for a single command.

Page 73

5-8 ACK/NACK Control

After the Controller receives a command from the host and returns a response, if the host cannot receive the response normally, the host must send the same command to the Controller again for execution. This is possible only if the ID Tag is at a standstill in the communications area of the Antenna or moving slow enough so that the ID Tag can receive the command within the communications area. The system in ACK/NACK control can receive the response without sending the command to the ID Tag.

Use of ACK/NACK Control

The Controller returns a response for a command sent from the host and the host sends ACK when the response to the command is received. Then the Controller determines that the host has received the response normally and waits for the next command. If the Controller does not receive ACK within a preset timeout period or the Controller receives NACK, the Retry Flag is set and the response is returned to the Controller again. This is repeated at least nine times.

The host receives a response normally and sends ACK.

Memory Check Function

By executing the MEMORY CHECK and MEMORY CALCULATE commands, it is possible to check for the accidental overwriting or destruction of memory. The CRC (cyclic redundancy check) code is written or checked with the check block specified by the user. The CRC code is calculated by the generating polynomial

+ X12 + X5 + 1.

• The calculation area is the portion of the check block specified by the first ad-

dress and the number of bytes excluding the last two bytes. The check code area is the last two-byte portion. If a command to write a check code is sent, the CRC code of the data in the calculation area is calculated and compared with the data in the check code area. If they coincide, response code 75, which indicate normal data transmission, is returned, otherwise response code 75 is returned as a warning.
