Commissioning
Requirements:
The antenna has to be wired correctly.
The antenna must be connected to the voltage supply.
Shielded cables should be used to protect the connection cables against inter
-
ference.
Observe the notes in section 7.3.4 „Metal-free Areas Around Transponder and
Antenna“ on page 24.
The purpose of commissioning is to parameterize the transponder antenna for a spe
-
cific application:
Commissioning consists of several steps
Connection of the serial interface of a computer (e.g. laptop) to the USB inter
-
face of the antenna (see section 8.1 below)
Starting the terminal program on the computer (see section 8.2 on page 28)
Parameterization of the antenna using the antenna-internal monitor program
(see 8.3 on page 29)
Saving the values and restarting the system.
8.1 Connecting the Antenna to a Computer
You can configure the system using a software running in the antenna. To do so, you
need a self-configured cable with the pin allocation shown in Figure 13.
Optionally the
connection box M12-5-8-USB
HG G-20960 can be connected be
-
tween the antenna and the PC (see also section 3.2 on page 14). This allows the an
-
tenna to be connected via standard M12 cables and, in addition to the connection to
the PC, also enables the antenna to be supplied with power.
