UHF RFID System

Long-range RFID for easy identification of large objects like car bodies

The system's wide communication range makes it easy to identify objects of various sizes such as a sequence of objects of different sizes

Stable detection of objects with different heightsConnect up to 8 reader/writers to expand range

Even when two or more RF tags exist in the communication range, the reader/writer can read the target tag just in front of it. It reads RF tags in the order in which they are conveyed while ignoring RF tags on pallets around the line.

Focus Mode prevents misreads and reads only target tags

RF tags conforming to ISO/IEC 18000-63 are availableIn addition to V780 RF Tags, the RF tags that conform to ISO/IEC 18000-63 (ISO/IEC 18000-6 Type C) can be used.

Contact your Omron representative for details.

Multi-Reader/Writer function *2

Applications

One reader/writer is set as a master, and others are set as slaves.When the host device sends commands to the master reader/writer, the reader/writers work like one reader/writer that has a wide communication range.

*1. PATENT PENDING/PATENTED means that the patent was applied for or the patent was granted. (As of August 2019) *2. Version 3 or later provides this function.

Use the V780-HMD68-ETN-□□-S Slave Reader/Writer as a slave to inexpensively create a system with the Multi-Reader/Writer function that expands the communication range.

* See page 9 for details.

Cost-effective slave reader/writer

When simultaneously inspecting all stacked pallets passing through a portal, install the reader/writers on both the left and right sides of the portal to read an RF tag placed on either the left or right side of each pallet.

Detection of passing pallets

It takes time to locate a defective vehicle outside the assembly line or a finished vehicle ready for shipment by using the on-board paper.Place an RF tag on the dashboard of each vehicle and install reader/writers on the vehicle waiting space to read the tags, which reduces the time to locate vehicles.

UHF RFID System

Reliable long distance communications Flexible expansion of communication range

Stable communications even in high-mix production lines

Noise levels in the operating environment are displayed to allow you to check radio interference. You can identify noise sources and take measures to stabilize operation.

By connecting a PC, you can set parameters and monitor communication status, noise levels, and communication log via the web browser. This facilitates maintenance and troubleshooting.

The latest 8,000 communication diagnostic results are listed in a table. When communications are unstable, the probable causes and workarounds are displayed to make troubleshooting easier. Also, a graph shows RSSI levels and noise levels to aid identify the causes of unstable communications. The diagnostic results can be output to CSV files.

Monitor communication status via the web browser

You can immediately check the communication status with the indicators of the reader/writer. The indicators using high-brightness LED can be easily seen even from a distance.

The transmission power required for communications between the reader/writer and RF tags are measured and automatically set to appropriate values. The set power will be large enough to communicate with RF tags and minimize interference with other reader/writers. This function is useful when multiple reader/writers are installed in one factory. The transmission power can be easily set via the web browser.

Automatic transmission power tuning

In addition to the web browser, the flashing speed of the LED indicators on the reader/writer pro-vides a visual indication of the reception level. This makes it easier to install and adjust a reader/writer or RF tag at a production site.

LED indicators help you adjust installation positions

This function visualizes reception levels, helping adjust installation positions of reader/writers and RF tags and check communication ranges.When RF tags on two or more objects are read for adjust-ment, connect your PC with the reader/writer to check a time series graph of the reception levels via the web browser.

Reception Level Monitor shows reception levels over time for installation/adjustment

Check the reception level with the indicators on the reader/writer to find the best installation position of an RF tag
