RFU61x IO-Link operating instructions

•The purpose of the operating instructions is to enable you to integrate the device

into a customer system and to achieve initial read results with transponders.

•The operating instructions provide step-by-step instructions for all tasks associ‐

ated with installing and operating the device.

•The operating instructions describe the commissioning process for an application

with a single device.

•Commissioning is based on the default setting of the device parameters. A simple

use case is the reading of a single transponder on an object.

•In the operating instructions, the RFU61x IO-Link RFID read/write device is refer‐

red to simplified as “device”.

•If variants need to be differentiated in regard to their region assignment, the

relevant device name RFU610-107xx is specified (xx = region assignment).

•The terms “transponder” and “tag” for the electronic data media are interchangea‐

ble. The term “transponder” is used in these instructions.

•Functions specific to special devices are, where necessary, described in additional

documents.

2 Safety information

2.1 Intended use

The RFU61x IO-Link RFID read/write device is a compact, intelligent ID sensor in the

RFU6xx (UHF) product family. Version (working range): Short Range

The stationary device automatically identifies wireless-based data cards (transponders)

on stationary and moving objects. The device supports data card management.

The device contains an (internal) antenna integrated into the housing.

The RFU610 base unit processes the data of all standard passive transponders in

accordance with ISO/IEC 18000-63 and EPCglobal UHF C1G2 in the regional UHF

carrier frequency range.

The device is used in a control system with coordinating PLC. To do so, the device is

integrated into the fieldbus system of the control system with the help of an IO-Link

master. The PLC controls the read and write tasks of the device using the process data.

The device is primarily designed for use in industrial and logistics areas. The device

meets the applicable requirements for industrial robustness, interfaces and data proc‐

essing.

The device allows operation within a wide ambient temperature range. Details see

"Ambient data", page 67 in the technical data.

Country variants of the device refer to the radio-technical region assignment, see

Technical Information RFU61x Regulatory Compliance Information.

Intended use of the device also includes compliance with all information in:

•Safety notes

•Technical Information RFU61x Regulatory Compliance Information

•Operating Instructions

SICK AG assumes no liability for losses or damage arising from the use of the product,

either directly or indirectly. This applies in particular to use of the product that does not

conform to its intended purpose and is not described in this documentation.

2.1.1 Operational restrictions

The region assignment of the device is configured for the specific type when delivered

and cannot be changed. This enables the device to be operated in the respective

approved region without interfering with national protected frequencies (e.g., mobile

communications).

Operating the same device in another region for which there is no approval is prohib‐

ited.

A region consists either of a group of countries or one country.
