For Your Safety
3.3 General safety notes
The device must only be fitted, installed, set, operated and maintained by trained and quali­fied personnel.
The devices only meet the EMC requirements for industrial areas and are not suitable for use in residential areas.
Only use the devices in compliance with the applicable national and international regula­tions, standards and laws.
Any extended stay within the area of radiation of the UHF read/write heads may be harmful to health. Observe minimum distances from the actively radiating surface of the UHF read/ write head:
Region max. permissible total radiant
output power
Safety distance
Europe, Russia, China 2 W ERP (according to ETSI) > 0.24 m
USA, Canada, Brazil, Korea, Australia, New Zealand
4 W EIRP > 0.30 m
Singapore 0.5 W ERP > 0.24 m
The radiation of the UHF read/write heads may have an adverse effect on the operation of electrically controlled medical equipment. Keep an additional distance from active radiation sources up to the maximum transmission distance.

Product Description
4.3 Operating principle
The read/write heads are used for contactless data exchange with tags. For this the controller sends commands and data via the interface to the read/write head and receives the corre­sponding response data from the read/write head. The reading of the IDs of all RFID tags in the read area or the writing of an RFID tag with a specific production date are examples of typical commands. To communicate with the tag, the data of the read/write head is coded and trans­ferred via an electromagnetic field, which at the same time supplies the tags with power. A read/write head contains a transmitter and a receiver, an interface to the interface and a coupling element (coil and dipole antenna) for communicating with the tag. Electromagnetic wave propagation is used for the transmission between read/write head and tag on devices for the UHF range.
Fig. 3: Operating principle of UHF-RFID
The antenna of the read/write head generates electromagnetic waves. This produces a trans­mission window as a so-called air interface in which the data exchange with the tag takes place. The size of the transmission window depends on the combination of read/write heads and tags, as well as on the relevant environmental conditions. Each read/write head can communicate with a number of tags. This requires the read/write head and the tag to operate in the same frequency range. Depending on the power and frequency used, the device ranges vary from a few millimeters up to several meters. The speci­fied maximum read/write distances only represent typical values under laboratory conditions without allowing for the effect of materials. The achievable distances may vary due to compo­nent tolerances, the mounting situation in the application, ambient conditions and the effect of materials (particularly metal and liquids).
4.4 Functions and operating modes
The devices enable passive UHF tags to be read or written in single and multi-tag operation. For this the devices form a transmission zone that varies in size and range according to the tags used and the operating conditions of the application. Refer to the data sheets for the applicable maximum read/write distances. The devices can be fully tested, configured and parameterized from a PC using the specified software tools.

4.4.1 Operating frequency
The Turck BL ident® UHF system uses nationally specified transmission frequencies for the com­munication between the tags and read/write heads. These national operating frequencies for UHF are the frequency ranges that are individually specified by the national regulation bodies.
The operating frequency of the devices in the UHF band is for example 865…868 MHz for Eu­rope and 902…928 MHz for the USA. The BL ident® read/write heads in the UHF band can there­fore only be used in the countries they are intended for and must not be put into operation outside of these regions. As the BL ident® UHF tags are passive, and therefore do not radiate their own radio waves, these are suitable for use worldwide.
Turck offers different tag variants that are specially designed and optimized for national frequency bands in order to achieve as large a communication range as possible. Wide-band multi-range tags for international use are also available as an alternative.
The various Turck read/write heads support the following operating frequencies:
865...868 MHz (e.g. for Europe)
866…868 MHz (e.g. for Russia)
902...928 MHz (e.g. for USA and Canada)
920…925 MHz (e.g. for China and Singapore)
902...907.5 MHz and 915...928 MHz (e.g. Brazil)
917...920.8 MHz (e.g. for Korea)
The relevant national specifications for UHF such as frequency range, output and the status of any national regulations can be obtained from the Internet at:
http://www.gs1.org/docs/epcglobal/UHF_Regulations.pdf
For more detailed information please contact the regulation authorities of the country where you wish to use the UHF RFID system.
HF RFID systems can be run parallel to UHF RFID systems in an installation.
4.4.2 Combination of UHF read/write heads and tags
The UHF read/write heads form a transmission zone for which the size depends on the com­bination of read/write head and tag. The listed maximum read/write distances only represent typical values under laboratory conditions without the effect of materials. The achievable distances may be different due to component tolerances, mounting location in the application, ambient conditions and the effect of materials (particularly metal). For this reason, the application must be tested in all cases under real conditions (particularly with read and write operations in motion).

9.3 Setting read/write heads parameters via the DTM
The functions of the read/write heads can be assigned additional parameters via the param­eterization function of the DTM.
NOTE
The parameterization function is only available in English. All parameters are written in the DTM.
The individual read/write heads are available in different variants. When a connection is made to a connected read/write head, the DTM automatically detects the relevant device and deac­tivates menu items that are not supported. The connection cannot be established if a different variant than set in the project tree is connected.
Requirements for extended parameter setting
PACTware™ must be installed.
The DTM for UHF read/write heads must be installed.
The connection between the read/write head and the PC must be established.
A project must have been created in PACTwareTM.
9.3.1 Starting the extended read/write head parameter setting
Right-click the device in the project tree.Choose “Parameter” “Parameterization” or “Online parameterization” in the context menu.

Troubleshooting
10 Troubleshooting
If the device does not function as expected, first check whether ambient interference is present. If there is no ambient interference present, check the connections of the device for faults. If there are no faults, there is a device malfunction. In this case, decommission the device and replace it with a new device of the same type.
11 Maintenance
Ensure regularly that the plug connections and cables are in good condition. The devices are maintenance-free, clean dry if required.
12 Repair
The device must not be repaired by the user. The device must be decommissioned if it is faulty. Observe our return acceptance conditions when returning the device to Turck.
12.1 Returning devices
If a device has to be returned, bear in mind that only devices with a decontamination declara­tion will be accepted. This is available at
https://www.turck.de/en/retoure-service-6079.php
and must be completely filled in, and affixed securely and weather-proof to the outside of the packaging.
13 Disposal
The devices must be disposed of correctly and must not be included in normal household garbage.
