Configuration/integration
An Ethernet interface is available for integrating the device into system
environments/networks. RF615R 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:
Ⴠ
STEP 7 Basic/Professional (TIA Portal)
Ⴠ
or via EtherNet/IP
Ⴠ
Web Based Management (WBM)
Ⴠ
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.
