3.5.1 Reading / Writing configuration
The RFH60 is compliant with the ISO 15693 Standard. Via SOPAS tool standard
specific setting could be set.
In addition parameters could be set that e.g could be used to define reading window
conditions as well as conditions for the actions to be taken within.
3.5.2 Object trigger control
In order to start an object-related reading process, the RFH620 requires an appropriate
external signal (trigger source) for reporting an object in the reading area. The start
signal is emitted via an external reading pulse sensor (e. g. photoelectric reflex switch)
as standard. As soon as an object has passed the reading pulse sensor, a time window
opens in the RFH620 (“reading/writing gate“) for the reading/writing process.
Alternatively, a command activates the reading process via a data interface or the CAN-
SENSOR network. In Automatic mode, the RFID device generates the reading gate
internally with an adjustable mark-space ratio.
The reading pulse can be ended in a number of ways: With external triggering by the
reading pulse source or a command, internally by a timer or an evaluation condition to
be met.
The trigger source could be configured using the SOPAS-ET configuration software:
PROJECT TREE, RFH620, PARAMETER, READING CONFIGURATION, OBJECT
TRIGGER CONTROL, register tab START/STOP OF OBJECT TRIGGER
3.5.3 Increment configuration
The RFID device receives information about the conveyor speed from an external
incremental encoder, for example. The incremental encoder delivers pulses which are
used to determine the current conveyor speed.
The conveyor speed results from the number of impulses and the resolution of the
external incremental encoder.
The increment source and the resolution/speed can be configured using the SOPAS-ET
configuration software: PROJECT TREE, RFH620, PARAMETER, INCREMENT
CONFIGURATION, register tab INCREMENT
3.5.4 ISO/IEC 15693 configuration
The RFH620 is compliant with the ISO 15693 Standard. All mandatory and optional
command set as defined in the standard are supported. All transponders that comply full
with the standard could be used in a customer application. A actual list of supported
transponder IC’s could be requested via SICK sales channel.
