RF290R
Обзор
The SIMATIC RF290R reader is a compact long-range reader for the upper performance range and ranges of up to 60 cm. Intended for operation with antennas ANT D5, ANT D6 and ANT D10. The application range for RF290R lies in the area of production control and intralogistics through to gate applications in which longer ranges for HF-RFID are required.
The reader is equipped with a combined RS422/RS232 interface, which is switched over when the corresponding connecting cable is used.
In RS422 mode, the reader can be connected to SIMATIC S7, PROFIBUS, PROFINET or Ethernet TCP/IP via the communication modules (see Communication modules). Please note that due to the current consumption of the reader on the ASM 456 and RF160C, only one RF290R can be connected.
In the RS232 mode, the reader is suitable for integration into PC-based control systems. Trigger and alarm signals can be connected via digital inputs/outputs. Furthermore, bulk detection of several hundred transponders is possible.
The antenna switch or the multiplexer enables several individual antennas or portal solutions to be implemented with only one RF290R. The RF260X antenna multiplexer supports the connection of up to 6 antennas to one reader and operates in quasi-parallel mode.
One of each of the following antennas can be operated on a SIMATIC RF290R:
- ANT D5, universal flat antenna,
dimensions L x W x H (mm): 380 x 380 x 110. - ANT D6, universal flat antenna,
dimensions L x W x H (mm): 580 x 480 x 110. - ANT D10, universal flat antenna for warehouse, logistics and distribution
dimensions L x W x H (mm): 1150 x 365 x 115.
Connectable antennas
ANT D5
Universal antenna for warehouse, logistics and distribution applications. The high degree of protection (IP65) enables the antenna to be used under harsh industrial conditions.
ANT D6
Antenna in the upper performance range, designed especially for warehouse, logistics and distribution applications. It can be used wherever high speeds are required together with a large write/read distance.
ANT D10
The ANT D10 is suitable for use in warehouses, logistics and distribution. An antenna with this geometry is required in the clothing industry and laundries in particular.
