5.2.1 Description
5.2.1.1 Overview
The SIMATIC RF610R is a stationary reader in the UHF frequency band with an integrated
antenna.
The maximum transmit power is 400 mW, the radiant power of the internal antenna is 200 or
250 mW ERP / 400 mW EIRP. The interfaces (Ethernet, power supply) are located on the
lower front edge. These interfaces can be used to connect the reader to the power supply
and a PC for parameter assignment.
The degree of protection is IP67.

Notes on connectors and cables
The cables with open cable ends (6GT2891-4EH20, 6GT2891-4EH50) have an 8-pin M12
plug at one end, while the other end of the cable is "open". There are 8 color-coded single
wires there for connecting to external devices.
The product range includes additional cables of the type 6GT2891-4Fxxx (2 to 50 m) with an
M12 connector at both ends. These cables can be used as extension cables. Long cables
can be shortened if necessary.
NOTICE
Insulate unused single wires
Unused single wires must be insulated individually to prevent unwanted connections of
signal lines.

NOTICE
For long cables: Adapt the power supply and transmission speed
Note that even with long cables, the supply voltage of 24 VDC must always be guaranteed.
Note also that the transmission speed on the serial interface must, if necessary, be
reduced.
SIMATIC standard cables (e.g. 6GT2891-4FN10) have a loop resistance of 160 mOhm /
meter. This results in a voltage drop of 0.8 volts on the 24 V cable for every 10 meters of
connecting cable and with a power requirement of 500 mA. If the power requirement
increases through the use of the digital inputs/outputs, the voltage drop increases
accordingly.

5.2.2 Planning operation
5.2.2.1 Internal antenna
Minimum mounting clearances of two readers
RF610R has an internal circular antenna. To prevent the antenna fields from overlapping,
always observe the recommended minimum distances between two readers as described in
the section "Reciprocal influence of read points (Page 47)".

Dense Reader Mode (DRM)
The readers can also interfere with each other (secondary fields), if the channels (Reader
TX, Transponder TX) overlap. In order to prevent a transponder channel overlapping with a
reader channel, we recommend that the Dense Reader Mode (DRM) is used.
Note
Protective cap
If you only use the internal antenna of the reader, we recommend that you close the
external, unused antenna connector on the reader using the protective cap.
Antenna diagram RF610R (ETSI)
The following radiation diagrams show the directional characteristics of the internal antenna
of the RF610R (ETSI) reader. For the spatial presentation of the directional characteristics,
the horizontal plane (azimuth section) as well as the vertical plane (elevation section) must
be considered. This results in a spatial image of the directional radiation pattern of the
antenna.

Requirement
Mounting/installing the device
NOTICE
Close unused connectors
Note that the readers only have the specified degree of protection when all connectors are
in use or when unused connectors are closed with the protective caps.
CAUTION
Emitted radiation
The transmitter complies with the requirements of Health Canada and the FCC limit values
for subjecting persons to HF radiation, provided that a minimum spacing of 26 cm exists
between antenna and person. When the antennas are installed, you must therefore ensure
that a minimum spacing of 26 cm is maintained between personnel and antennas.
You can mount the reader in the following ways:
● directly on a flat surface using the VESA 100 mounting system (torque ≃ 1.5 Nm).
The positions of the mounting holes for the device are shown in the section Dimension
drawing (Page 120).

5.2.4 Configuration/integration
An Ethernet interface is available for integrating the device into system
environments/networks. RF610R can be configured via the Ethernet interface and with direct
connection to the PC. You can configure and program the reader using the following tools:
● STEP 7 Basic/Professional (TIA Portal)
● or via EtherNet/IP
● Web Based Management (WBM)
● OPC UA or XML based user applications
Note that configuration in parallel is not possible using different tools. Simple process
controls (e.g. a traffic signal) can be implemented directly using the reader via the digital
input/output.

All supply and signal voltages must be safety extra low voltage (SELV/PELV according to
EN 60950). All voltage sources must meet the requirements of limited power sources (LPS) and
NEC Class 2.
Note that, depending on the power consumption, using extension cables > 20 m (6GT28914FN50) may lead to a voltage drop on the reader. This voltage drop can mean that the necessary
minimum voltage on the reader is below the required 20 V.

The values for shock and vibration are maximum values and must not be applied continuously.
These values only apply to mounting using screws.

Siemens SIMATIC RF610R (FCC): 6GT2811-6BC10-1AA0
FCC ID: NXW-RF610R
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.
Caution
Any changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for
compliance could void the user's authority to operate the equipment.
Note
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B 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.
FCC Notice
To comply with FCC part 15 rules in the United States, the system must be professionally
installed to ensure compliance with the Part 15 certification.
It is the responsibility of the operator and professional 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 information) is expressly forbidden.
FCC Exposure Information
To comply with FCC RF exposure compliance requirements, the antennas used for this
transmitter must be installed to provide a separation distance of at least 20 cm from all
persons and must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or
transmitter.
