Overview of the commissioning steps
7.1.1
Commissioning of the RFH5xx with SOPAS ET for demonstration purposes
RFH5xx
SOPAS ET
SiLink2 Master
Transponder
Prerequisites:
•
SICK SiLink2 IO-Link master with USB cable
•
Computer (Windows) with installed SOPAS ET configuration software
Procedure:
1.
Connect the RFH5xx to the voltage-free IO-Link master.
2.
Connect the computer to the IO-Link master using the USB interface. The USB
interface supplies the master and therefore the RFH5xx with voltage.
3.
Start up the computer and the SOPAS ET configuration software.
4.
In SOPAS ET, load the device description file (*.SDD) of the present RFH5xx type
and put the device into operation based on the factory defaults.
5.
Configure the RFH5xx with SOPAS ET as desired.
You will find helpful information on this process in the type-specific IO-Link techni‐
cal information with a table overview of all parameters and the selectable device
parameter values,
see "Scope of delivery", page 19
With factory defaults, the devices are in the "Scan UID” mode. The UID is read out
when doing so.
6.
Present a written HF transponder to the RFH5xx. Make sure the transponder is
optimally aligned to the device when doing so,
see "Mounting the device", page 27
Observe the read results in the process data.
7.
After successful reading, save the optimized parameters of the device as a para‐
meter set in the RFH5xx with SOPAS ET. The data can also be stored on the
computer as a parameter set (project file) for archiving purposes.
NOTE
The SOPAS ET configuration software can only be used for configuration of the RFH5xx
using the SICK SiLink2 or SIG200 IO-Link master.
