System overview SIMATIC RF200 is an inductive identification system that is compatible with the ISO 15693 standard and was specially designed for use in industrial production for the control and optimization of material flows. In contrast to SIMATIC RF300, SIMATIC RF200 is intended for RFID applications where performance requirements are not very high, for example with regard to data volume, transfer rate or diagnostics options.

RF200 system planning 4.1 Fundamentals of application planning From the diagrams above, it can also be seen that operation is possible within the area between S and S . The active operating area reduces as the distance increases, and shrinks to a single point at distance S .
RF200 system planning 4.1 Fundamentals of application planning 4.1.4 Impact of secondary fields Secondary fields in the range from 0 mm to 30% of the limit distance (S ) generally always exist. They should, however, only be used during configuration in exceptional cases, since the read/write distances are very limited.

Glossary Automation system (AS) A programmable logical controller (PLC) of the SIMATIC S7 system, comprising a central controller, a CPU and various I/O modules. Battery-free data storage unit Mobile data storage units which operate without batteries. Power is supplied to the data storage unit across an electromagnetic alternating field.
Page 354
Glossary Dynamic mode In dynamic mode, the data carrier moves past the read/write device at a traversing rate which depends on the configuration. Various checking mechanisms ensure error-free data transfer even under extreme environmental conditions. A serial connection (up to 1000 m) is used to connect the read/write device directly to an interface module, PC, or any other system.

Page 356
Glossary Operating distance between transponder and reader Secondary fields In addition to the transmission window, there are also secondary fields whose size is generally smaller than that of the transmission window; the shape and size of the secondary fields, depends among other things on the metallic environment. Secondary fields should not be used in configuring.
Page 357
Glossary Transponders consist predominantly of logic, FRAM and/or EEPROM. If a transponder moves into the transmission window of the reader, the necessary power for all of the circuit components is generated and monitored by the power supply unit. The pulse-coded information is prepared in such a way that it can be processed further as pure digital signals.
