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 RFU62 x 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 7.

For simplicity in this document, the RFU620-10xxx read/write device is referred to as the RFU620, unless a clear distinction needs to be made between variants.

The Quickstart describes the commissioning process for an application with an RFU620 in ambient temperature range 0 °C to +50 °C.

Device variant RFU620-10100 (Ethernet variant, regional assignment: Europe/ South Africa) is used as the basis for the examples given, based on its default. The optional CDB620 connection module is used as an example for the industrialstandard signal distribution of the RFU620. Other connection modules are avail‐ able. With the exception of the electrical connection, other device variants of the RFU620 are commissioned in the same way.

2.1 Intended use

The RFU620 read/write device is an intelligent SICK-4 Dpro sensor from the RFU62 x product family. The device is used for the automated, fixed identification of wireless-based data cards on moving or stationary objects and their manage‐ ment.

As a compact read/write device, the RFU620-10xxx has an internal antenna that is integrated into the housing. It processes all standard passive transponders in accordance with ISO/IEC 18000-6C and EPCglobalUHF C1G2 in the regional UHF carrier frequency range. Thanks to its intelligent process logic, it can be used either as a stand-alone solution or as part of a group in a network. The RFU620 uses its host interface to transmit the read results to an overriding com‐ puter for further processing or it can receive corresponding commands for manag‐ ing the data card (read, write, etc.) via the interface.

Intended use also includes compliance with all information in this Quickstart and the supplementary RFU62x RFID read/write device (UHF) operating instructions.

The RFU62 x-101 xx product family consists of 3 variant series which are distin‐ guished by the data interface and the designs of the electrical connection, for example:

•

Each device variants series contains variants for regional assignment (operating license and the carrier frequency range), see Device overview, page 7.

Mount the RFU620 on the SICK mounting accessories ordered sepa‐ rately.

3. Align the surface of the internal antenna of the RFU620 (front face) to the 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.

Figure 1: Selection of the approach angle with a large metal surface on the front. e.g. 10°

Metal surface

4. Ensure there is no electrically conductive material (e.g., liquids) or persons between the RFU620 and the transponder during the write or read process. This will absorb or reflect the generated UHF field and thereby reduce the sensing range.

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 RFU620 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 RFU620 was obtained in a reproducible environment (absorber chamber) for illustrative pur‐ poses. It may therefore only have limited applicability to your specific application.

•

Wire cross-sections in the supply cable from the user’s power system must be designed in accordance with the applicable national standards.

•

Only connect the device to the permitted supply voltage, see Technical data

(excerpt), page 6.

•

If the supply voltage is not supplied via the optional CDB620 connection module, the RFU620 must be protected by a separate 0.8 A slow-blow fuse at the start of the supply circuit.

•

All circuits connected to the device must be designed as SELV circuits. The voltage supply or power supply unit must satisfy SELV requirements in accor‐ dance with the currently applicable EN 60950-1. (SELV = Safety Extra Low Voltage).

WARNING

Risk of injury and damage caused by electrical current!

The device is designed for operation in a system with proficient grounding 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 RFU620 can charge the metal housing to a dangerous voltage, cause malfunction and destruction of devices as well as damage to the cable shielding through heat‐ ing, 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 imme‐ diately and have the damage repaired.

•

For measures for eliminating hazards, see the “Electrical installation” chapter in the RFU62x RFID read/write device (UHF) operating instruc‐ tions on the product page on the Internet at www.sick.com/RFU62x

NOTICE

Risk of damage to the device due to possible short-circuit!

The supply voltage input for the device is designed with internal circuit protec‐ tion 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 pro‐ vided 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.

4.1 Connecting the RFU620

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.

3.5 Mounting the CDB620 connection module

Mount the CDB620 connection module in the vicinity of the RFU620. When using the serial data interfaces (RS-232), the recommended length of cable between the devices is max. 5 m. Mount the CDB620 in such a way that the device can be accessed at all times, see the CDB620 connection module operating instructions.

4 Electrical installation

•

The electrical installation must only be performed by electrically qualified persons. Standard safety requirements must be met when working on electrical systems.

Electrical connections between the RFU620 and other devices may only be made or separated when there is no power to the system. Otherwise, there is a risk of damaging the devices.

When using connecting or extension cables with an open end, make sure that bare wire ends are not touching (risk of short-circuit when the supply voltage is switched on). Wires must be appropriately insulated from each other.

6.3 microSD memory card (optional accessory)

Function

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 4Dpro device parameter sets. The function is triggered by saving the internal parameter set with the “per‐ manent” option. The function is used, among other things, to conveniently transmit the parameter set to an exchange unit of the same type in the event of an error. Optional external media include a memory card which can be

plugged into the device or the CMC600 parameter storage module, which can be used in the optional connection module, e.g., CDB620 or CDM420-0001.

•

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/RFU62x. The memory card has no write protection that can be activated.

Inserting the memory card

NOTICE

To avoid damaging the memory card, make sure there is no power to the device when you insert or remove it.

The card slot can be accessed on the device behind the plastic foil, see Device

description, page 5.

Maintaining enclosure rating IP65 or 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. Recommended tightening torque for the cover screws: 60 Ncm ± 5 Ncm.

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.

NOTICE

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 turn off the supply voltage if there are parameter values in the device that have been changed to the “per‐ manent” option or functions have been started that access the memory card with the SOPAS ET configuration software (e.g. logging of data ).

•

To remove the memory card safely during operation, select the Remove card function under Analysis/SD card and wait for SOPAS ET to provide

confirmation.

7 Maintenance and care

The device does not contain any components that require maintenance.

To maintain the full read and write rate, gently clean the antenna hood (plas‐ tic) in case of soiling (e.g. metal dust) with a soft, damp cloth (mild cleaning agent).

8 Transport and storage

Transport and store the device in the original packaging, with protective plugs and caps completely screwed-on. Do not store outdoors. To ensure that any residual moisture present can escape, do not store the device in airtight containers. Do not expose to any aggressive substances.

Storage conditions: Dry, dust-free, no direct sunlight, as little vibration as possi‐ ble, storage temperature –40 °C to +70 °C, relative humidity max. 90% (non-con‐ densing).
