SIMATIC Ident RFID systems SIMATIC RF200 command set Product Information Legal information Warning notice system This manual contains notices you have to observe in order to ensure your personal safety, as well as to prevent damage to property. The notices referring to your personal safety are highlighted in the manual by a safety alert symbol, notices referring only to property damage have no safety alert symbol. These notices shown below are graded according to the degree of danger. DANGER indicates that death or severe personal injury will result if proper precautions are not taken. WARNING indicates that death or severe personal injury may result if proper precautions are not taken. CAUTION indicates that minor personal injury can result if proper precautions are not taken. NOTICE indicates that property damage can result if proper precautions are not taken. If more than one degree of danger is present, the warning notice representing the highest degree of danger will be used. A notice warning of injury to persons with a safety alert symbol may also include a warning relating to property damage. Qualified Personnel The product/system described in this documentation may be operated only by personnel qualified for the specific task in accordance with the relevant documentation, in particular its warning notices and safety instructions. Qualified personnel are those who, based on their training and experience, are capable of identifying risks and avoiding potential hazards when working with these products/systems. Proper use of Siemens products Note the following: WARNING Siemens products may only be used for the applications described in the catalog and in the relevant technical documentation. If products and components from other manufacturers are used, these must be recommended or approved by Siemens. Proper transport, storage, installation, assembly, commissioning, operation and maintenance are required to ensure that the products operate safely and without any problems. The permissible ambient conditions must be complied with. The information in the relevant documentation must be observed. (c) Siemens AG 2010 - 2013.

This chaining allows the writing and reading of 1 KB of data in a sequence, and two additional commands such as SET-ANT "On" and SET-ANT "Off" (antenna on/off). With the RF290R, any amount of data can be transferred in a sequence. The following commands are supported: READ (read UID) WRITE SLG-STATUS [Mode 1] MDS-STATUS [Mode 3] RESET (init_run) SET-ANT As with the RF300, the following messages are generated: Startup Presence In contrast to the RF300, the following commands are not supported and return Moby error "05" (unknown command): Init (possible with RF290R) Repeat (possible with RF290R) OTP handling (write once to data carrier) Note Transponder with protected memory area Transponders with protected memory area (lock bit) cannot be processed and cause various error messages (0x01, 0x0C) depending on the transponder type. Input parameters The RESET command via "init_run" causes the input parameters to be transferred and errors and alarms to be acknowledged. The RESET command effectively corresponds to the RESET command from the SIMATIC RF300 for the ISO interface settings. The following parameters can be changed or must be entered with the RF200: Parameter name Parameter value Description scanning_time 0x00 Not used MOBY_mode Bit 0..3 = 5 Single tag mode Bit 4 = 0 Not used Bit 5..7 = 0 Operating mode without presence Bit 5..7 = 2 Operating mode with presence Bit 0 = 0 Not used Bit 1 = 0 RESET command does not reset red LED option_1 Bit 1 = 1 RESET command resets red LED Bit 2..7 = 0 Not used distance_limiting 0x00 Not used distance_limiting (with RF290R) 0x04 1W 0x08 2W multitag 2 0x0C 3W 0x10 4W 0x14 5W 0x01 Only the single tag mode is supported SIMATIC RF200 command set J31069-D0232-U001-A4-7618, 03/2013 Parameter name Parameter value Description field_ON_control 0x00 Not used field_ON_time 0x01 ISO mode field_ON_time (with RF290R) 0x01 ISO mode 0x03 MDS D3xx - optimization READ The READ command corresponds to the READ command from RF300: User data address 0000 ... xxxx (hex) User data length 1 ... 1024 (dec.) The max. permissible address is the memory size (-1) of the transponder. refer to relevant transponders for details 1) Length of user data to be read. Address + length < max. memory area 1) With RF290R, no user data restrictions. The targeted reading of the UID alone is possible by entering the address FFF0 and length 8. WRITE The WRITE command corresponds to the WRITE command from RF300: User data address 0000 ... xxxx (hex) User data length 1 ... 1024 (dec.) The max. permissible address is the memory size (-1) of the transponder. refer to relevant transponders for details 1) Length of user data to be read. Address + length < max. memory area 1) With RF290R, no user data restrictions.
