1.5 INSTALLATION GUIDELINES
1.5.1 Hardware Requirements
The following components are required for a complete Subnet16 RFID system:

One Subnet16 Profibus Gateway Interface Module

One Profibus-capable host; Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) or PC

One to 16 RFID controllers ( Cobalt C-Series, HF-Series or UHF-Series Controllers -
RS485 models )

Adequate length cabling, connectors and terminators

Sufficient power, supplied via Subnet16 network cabling, capable of powering the
Gateway and its RFID controllers

Datalogic Automation RFID series tags: HMS, LRP, T/Gamma, I, or UHF-G2-525
1.5.2 Installation Precautions

Do not route cables near unshielded cables or near wiring carrying high voltage or
high current. Cross cables at perpendicular intersections and avoid routing cables
near motors and solenoids.

Review the power requirements of your RFID network and provide a suitable power
supply.

Avoid mounting the controller near sources of EMI (electro-magnetic interference) or
near devices that generate high ESD (electro-static discharge) levels. Always use
adequate ESD prevention measures to dissipate potentially high voltages.

If electrical interference is encountered (as indicated by a significant reduction in
read/write performance), relocate the controller to an area free from potential sources
of interference.

Perform a test phase by constructing a small scale, independent network that
includes only the essential devices required to test your RFID application (use
Datalogic Automation approved Subnet16™ cables and accessories).
1.5.3 Network & Power Considerations

Refer to the network diagrams in Appendix B. Choose the network architecture
(ThickNet vs. ThinNet) that best suits your RFID requirements.

Construct your chosen network using only Datalogic Automation approved
Subnet16™ cables, Drop-T connectors, Terminating Resistors and accessories.

Review the power requirements of your RFID network and provide a suitable power
supply. (See Appendix A for power supplies offered by Datalogic Automation).
NOTE
It is recommended that power be applied directly to the Subnet16™ Network
trunk and distributed through drop cables to the Gateway and RFID
controllers. By positioning the power supply near the middle of the network
(see examples), you can limit voltage drop at the ends.
