2.6.3 Installing the BIS M-41_ RS422
Figure 18 - RS422 Typical Layout
The BIS M-41_-068-001-02-S115 Compact processor is designed for point-to-point RFID
applications, where the distance from host to compact processor can be up to 1200 meters
(3940 feet), depending on the baud rate used. It therefore supports longer distances than
those acceptable for RS232 communications and it is also suggested in electrically noisy
environments. The compact processor connects directly to an RS422 serial communications
port on a host computer (or PLC) via an RS422-compatible cable.
Ensure that an RS422
port is installed on the host or that an RS232/RS422 converter is connected to an
RS232 COM port on the host.
1. To mount the BIS M-41_ Compact processor:
a) For the BIS M-410 Compact processor, attach to the polycarbonate mounting bracket
(for metallic isolation) using the two sets of M4 screws, washers and nuts provided as
shown in
Figure 2 . Fasten the other end of the mounting bracket to your work area.
Tighten all screws to 0.7 Nm (6 lbs per inch).
b) For the BIS M-411 Compact processor, fasten it to the mounting surface using two
M5 (#10) screws, washers and nuts (not provided). Tighten all screws to between 1.3
and 1.7 Nm (12-15 lbs per inch).
2. Build an RS422 compatible cable using the BCC0A03 M12 8-pin female connector. Use
suitable shielded twisted-pair wires for RS422 connection and power supply signals
according to the connector pinout (see
Figure 14 ). Connect the BCC0A03 M12 8-pin
female connector to the M12 8-pin male connector on the Compact processor. Connect
the other end of the cable (wires or user-supplied connectors) to the host (PLC) and
power supply.
3. Apply power to the compact processor after all cable connections have been made. The
LEDs on the unit will flash.
4. On the host computer, set COM port parameters to: 9600 baud, 8 data bits, 1 stop bit, no
parity and no handshaking.
To verify operations, download the Balluff Dashboard™ Configuration Tool from
www.balluff.com . The Balluff Dashboard™ Configuration Tool allows users to configure and
control their BIS M-41_ compact processors and send RFID commands for testing purposes.
See the Dashboard™ Configuration Tool Manual for details.
NOTE
If the host does not support the Windows environment, configuration must be
made by sending the configuration command protocol strings, refer to the
ABx Fast Command Protocol Manual.
