Q U I C K S T A R T e n
1 About this document
The purpose of this Quickstart is to allow you to commission the RFU610-106xx
RFID read/write device (UHF) quickly and easily and to achieve initial read results
with transponders.
The Quickstart is valid for the regional variants listed in the “Device overview” sec‐
tion: see Device overview, page 6.
The Quickstart describes the commissioning process for an application with an
RFU610-106xx in an ambient temperature range of 0 °C to +50 °C.
Device variant RFU610-10600 (Ethernet variant, regional assignment: Europe) is
used as the basis for the examples given, based on its default. The optional
GL6 photoelectric sensor (1059241) is used as an example for the industrialstandard read-cycle triggering of the RFU610-106xx. The photoelectric sensor can
be connected with the RFU610-106xx as a trigger sensor. Additional trigger sen‐
sors can be found at www.sick.com.

wireless-based data cards (transponders) on moving or stationary objects and
their management.
As a compact read/write device, the RFU610-106xx has an internal antenna that
is integrated into the housing. The device processes all standard passive
transponders in accordance with ISO/IEC 18000-63 and EPCglobal UHF C1G2 in
the regional UHF carrier frequency range. Thanks to its intelligent process logic,
the device can be used either as a stand-alone solution or as part of a group in a
network. The device sends the read results to a higher-level computer for further
processing via its host interface. The device also receives commands for data
card management (write, read, etc.) via this interface.

Lights up Yellow Over SOPAS ET A function is star ted manually,
3.3 microSD memory card (optional accessory)
The device can execute the following functions on the plug-in memory card:
•
Automated, additional storage of the internal parameter set to an external
storage medium (cloning function), if available. This is done in the framework
of the recommended safety concept for the device parameter sets. The func‐
tion is triggered by saving the internal parameter set with the “permanent”
option. The function is used,among other things, to conveniently transfer the
parameter set to an replacement device of the same type in the event of an
fault.
•
Continuous recording of diagnostic read data after the first manual start,
e.g., via SOPAS ET. Recording is resumed after a device restart when the
function is set permanently.
The first time a parameter set is stored, we recommend that an empty memory
card is used (if necessary, check and delete the contents of the card on the PC
using a card reader).
The memory card is not included with delivery.
Only use types approved by SICK to ensure reliable function of the memory card,
see www.sick.com/RFU61x. The memory card has no write protection that can be
activated.
Inserting the memory card
The card slot can be accessed on the device behind the plastic foil, see Device
description, page 1.
Maintaining enclosure rating IP67: see Safety information, page 1.
1. Switch off the supply voltage to the device.
2. Loosen both screws on the cover.
3. Carefully fold up the cover.
4. Making sure it is in the correct position (with the contacts pointing to the
front and down – see the symbol on the device), insert the memory card into
the card slot until it locks into place.
5. Screw the cover back on.
6. Switch the supply voltage for the device back on.
7. Once it is switched on, the device automatically detects the presence of a
memory card and, depending on the card’s content, behaves as follows:
°
If the card is empty or if it contains a parameter set that cannot be
interpreted by the device, the device saves its currently valid internal
parameter set to the card (provided there is sufficient storage space)
and starts with the internal parameter set.
°
If the card contains a parameter set that can be interpreted by the
device, the device overwrites the currently valid internal parameter set
with this external parameter set.
The goal is for the internal parameter set and the parameter set saved
externally to always be identical.
NOTE
Possible data loss or irreparable damage to the memory card!
The device does not signal access to the card.
•
Only use memory card when the device power is off.
•
Do not remove the memory card or switch off the supply voltage while
the SOPAS ET configuration software is making changes to the parame‐
ter values with the “permanent” option or starting functions in the
device that access the memory card (e.g., logging data).
•
To remove the memory card safely during operation, select the Remove
card function under Analysis Tools/MicroSD memory card and wait for
SOPAS ETto provide confirmation.
which requires a memory card; however, the
microSD memory card is not ready for operation
(e.g., not plugged in, contacts contaminated, or
without free storage space for writing).
4.4 Mounting the device
1. Select a suitable mounting location for the device. The mounting location
and position depend on the antenna field of the device and the transpon‐
ders used.
2. Perform one of the following steps:
°
Mount the device on the bracket provided by the customer using the
2 screws. Screw the M5 screws no more than 7 mm deep into the blind
tapped holes, see Device description, page 1.
°
Mount the device on the SICK mounting accessories ordered sepa‐
3. Align the surface of the internal antenna of the device (front face) to the
4. Ensure there is no electrically conductive material (e.g., metal or liquids) or
Sensing range of the reading and writing field
The UHF field of the internal antenna is influenced by its environment, making it
impossible to provide a “clear” demarcation of the sensing range. Application-spe‐
cific reflections can result in both overreaches and “holes”. In addition to the read
results, the RFU device can also output diagnostic data that provide an indication
of the write and read quality. This data can be used to achieve optimum read
results when setting up the system.
The quality of the transponder and the material of the object also determine the
sensing range. The quality of the transponder is determined by the antenna gain,
the integrated transponder chip and the related sensitivity, and the reflected
energy.
The radiation pattern shown here for the internal antenna of the device was
obtained in a reproducible environment (absorber chamber) for illustrative pur‐
poses. It may therefore only have limited applicability to your specific application.
rately.
data card on the object. While doing so, take into account the shape, align‐
ment, and dimensions of the antenna fields. Avoid as far as possible any
large metal surfaces positioned to the front. If this is not possible, do not
mount the antenna plane parallel with the surface.

Connect the device to the permissible supply voltage only, see Technical
data (excerpt), page 5.
•
Protect the device with a separate fuse of 0.8 A (slow blowing) at the start of
the supply circuit.
•
All circuits connected to the device must be designed as ES1 circuits. The
voltage supply or power supply unit must satisfy ES1 requirements in accor‐
dance with the currently applicable EN 62368-1.
WARNING
Risk of injury and damage caused by electrical current!
The device is designed for operation in a system with proficient ground‐
ing of all connected devices and mounting surfaces to the same ground
potential. Due to equipotential bonding currents between the device and
other grounded devices in the system, incorrect grounding of the
device can charge the metal housing to a dangerous voltage, cause mal‐
function and destruction of devices as well as damage to the cable
shielding through heating, and thus cause cable fires.
•
Ensure that the ground potential is the same at all grounding
points.
•
If the cable insulation is damaged, disconnect the voltage supply
immediately and have the damage repaired.
NOTICE
Risk of damage to the device due to possible short-circuit!
The supply voltage input for the device is designed with internal circuit
protection to provide reverse polarity protection. The internal functional
earth, which also corresponds to the negative pole of the supply voltage
for the device, is connected directly to the metal housing of the device
due to reasons relating to high frequency.
If the supply voltage is polarity-reversed, this will not cause any damage
provided that the following conditions are met for the device:
The device is not connected in an electrically conductive manner, either
via other cables or via its housing, to other peripheral devices which use
the same reference potential.
5.1 Connecting the device electrically
NOTE
The USB interface of the device is used in industrial environments only as a
service interface for temporary use (e.g. for configuration, troubleshooting).
Permanent use in real operation of the system as a host interface is not
intended.
Voltage supply
There are two ways to supply the device with voltage, as follows:
1. Power and Ethernet: DC 18 V ... 30 V
°

2. Highlight the desired transponder (click it with the mouse).
3. Click the Transponder Access button. The Transponder Management Access tab dis‐
plays the content of the selected transponder.
6 Commissioning and configuration with PC (Windows)
Adjustment of the device parameters to the application as well as diagnostics in
the event of malfunctions is undertaken by default with the SOPAS ET configura‐
tion software.
6.1 Installing and starting the configuration software
1. Download and install the latest version of the SOPAS ET configuration soft‐
ware as well as the current device description files (*.sdd): www.sick.com/
SOPAS_ET. In this case, select the “Complete” option as suggested by the
installation wizard. Administrator rights may be required on the PC to install
the software.
2. Start the “SOPAS ET” program option after completing the installation. Path:
Start > Programs > SICK > SOPAS ET Engineering Tool > SOPAS.
3. Establish communication between SOPAS ET and device with the automati‐
cally launching wizard. To do so, select the RFU610-106xx under the devices
available depending on the connected communication interface, e.g. in the
Ethernet (default Ethernet address: IP address: 192.168.0.1, subnet mask:
255.255.255.0). SOPAS ET establishes communication with the device and
loads the associated device description file. The Quickstart tab opens.
6.2 Detecting a transponder in Quickstart mode
1. Bring one or more standards-compliant UHF transponders into the working
range of the internal antenna of the device. The UII/EPC of the individual
transponders must be differentiated so that several transponders can be
detected.
2. Click the Start button on the Quickstart tab of SOPAS ET. SOPAS ET generates
an automated read cycle and lists the detected transponders one after
another in the Quickstart window.

(1) This device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the
following two conditions:
(1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must
accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired
operation.
(2) Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for
compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.
(3) Note: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for
a Class A digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are
designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference when the
equipment is operated in a commercial environment. This equipment generates,
uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in
accordance with the instruction manual, may cause harmful interference to radio
communications. Operation of this equipment in a residential area is likely to
cause harmful interference in which case the user will be required to correct the
interference at his own expense.
(4) To comply with FCC part 15 rules in the United States, the system must be pro‐
fessionally installed to ensure compliance with the Part 15 certification.
(5) It is the responsibility of the operator and profes-sional installer to ensure that
only certified systems are deployed in the United States. The use of the system in
any other combination (such as co-located antennas transmitting the same infor‐
mation) is expressly forbidden.
(6) This device complies with the limit values defined by the FCC for radio radia‐
tion in an uncontrolled environment. The device must have a minimum distance
of 20 cm between the source of radiation and your body.
Canada
(1) This Class A digital apparatus complies with Canadian ICES-003.
(2) This device satisfies the Industry Canada CNR applicable to license-free radio
equipment. Use is permitted providing the two following conditions are met: (1)
