NOTE

The TID (tag identifier) of the transponder cannot be changed.

6.4 Continuing the configuration

1.

Under SOPAS ET in the left-hand navigation tree, edit the required tabs for

the application using the additional entries under 

Parameters

. These include:

u. a. antenna configuration, performance optimization, data pre-processing,

transponder processing, object trigger control (e.g., Via “Sensor 1” switching

input), data processing and output, data output interface(s), function of the

digital input and the possible use of an optional microSD memory card.

2.

Set the transmitting power for the internal antenna using sliders on the

Antenna Configuration

 tab.

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).

Repairs

Repair work on the device may only be performed by qualified and authorized ser‐

vice personnel from SICK AG.

10 Disassembly and disposal

Any device which can no longer be used must be disposed of in an environmen‐

tally friendly manner in accordance with the applicable country-specific waste dis‐

posal regulations. As it is categorized as electronic waste, the device must never

be disposed of with household waste!
