4.1 Use and Application
Handheld
The IDENTControl system from Pepperl+Fuchs is an established, proven solution
for stationary RFID applications. A mobile device for process control (read/write
fun ct io ns, in itializing read/w rite tag s) is prov ided with this han dheld a s an ideal
enhancemen t to this system.
The cell-phone-style design with keyboard and display screen offers an intuitive
operating concept. The device features two unassigned keys that can be
programmed with frequently repeated actions. These a ctions can be executed at
the touch of a button. To further enhance user functionality, a familiar, crossplatform programming language is provided in JavaScript.
A lithium-ion battery, large nonvolatile memory and the option to communicate
wirelessly within the 2.45 GHz frequency band, based on the Bluetooth standard,
mean that the device is fully portable.
The M12 socket gives you the option of connecting IDENTControl read/write
heads of all frequency ranges to the handheld, thus making the system more
flexible.

Read only / read/write tag 125 kHz (inductive)
A wide range of read only and read/write tag designs are available for this
freque ncy ran ge, from a 3 mm th in glass tu be to a tr anspond er 50 mm in diameter.
Read/write tags are available for temperatures up to 300 °C (max. 5 min) in
chemical-resistant housings for installation in metal and in degree of protection
IP68/IP69K . IPC02-... read only tags offer 40-bit read only codes. IPC03-...
read/write tags have a 928-bit freely programma ble memory bank and a n
unmodif iabl e 32-bit rea d only cod e. You can defi ne 40 -b it rea d only cod es with
IPC11-... read only tags. You can use these as permanent read only codes or
continually redefine them.

Product Description
Re ad/ write tag 250 kHz (induct ive )
Data carriers from this frequency range achieve a higher reading speed than 125
kHz data carriers. ICC ... code carriers with a 28 bit fix code a nd I DC ... data
carriers with a memory capacity of 1 kBit are available in various designs.
Re ad/ write tag 13 .56 M Hz (ind uctive )
Read/write tags in this frequency ra nge save larger quantities of data and offer a
considerably highe r reading speed than read/write tags of the 125 kHz system.
IQH-* a nd IQH1-* read/write heads from Pepperl+Fuchs are compatible with most
existing read/write tags that comply with standa rd ISO 15693. With the IQH2-*
read/write heads you can use read/write tags that comply with standard ISO
14443 A.
The 13 .56 MHz technology even allows smart labels (read/write tags in the form
of adhesive labels with printed barcode). Currently available read /write tags h ave
a memory capacity o f 64 bits of read only code and a maximum 2 KB of
programmable memory.

the handheld device.
If you wish to operate the handheld device without a handle using a cable via the
USB port, you must fit a battery compartment cover ODZ-MAH-BLANK to the
device.
This optional accessory is available from Pepperl+Fuchs.
