Integration Guide 1 Introduction Introduction This document provide integration instructions and should be used when integrating a module in a host product. The full modular transmitter RFM-2-NF can be integrated into a variety of products. The neces-
sary steps for a correct integration and necessary testing are described in this document based on the document GUIDANCE FOR MODULAR TRANSMITTER INSTRUCTION MANUALS AND TCB CERTI-
FICATION APPLICATION REVIEWS from February 1, 2019. 2 Integration instructions 2.1 Mounting of the board, connecting to PC The integration into B&R products, but also into OEM products or private label products produced by B&R must be done by trained B&R stuff only. Typical electronic manufacturing environment recommended. The B&R wireless board RFM-2-NF may be glued, screwed or positioned with other mounting methods
(e.g. clips) on the touch screen, the display, plastic parts or any other surfaces inside the host. The an-
tenna is part of the board, so no additional mounting steps, adjusting, settings or testing is necessary. The wireless board is then connected by a USB-cable with a Standard-USB-Connector to a PC on one of its standard USB jacks. Because of using a standard USB interface no additional requirements on safety, grounding, functionality and reliability of the connection must be taken into account. No testing required. To operate the wireless board RFM-2-BTW, the appropriate driver must be installed. These drivers can be found on the B&R homepage https://www.br-automation.com/. For the combination of host and RFM-2-NF no further RF-testing in respect to national rules is necessary, so there is no need that the host manufacturers do further RF-testing. Depending on the type of host and its marking indicating EMC-compliance, it may be necessary that EMC compliance of the host with inte-
grated RFM-2-NF is verified. This is under the responsibility of the host manufacturer. No additional marking of the B&R wireless board RFM-2-NF necessary.

(final product containing the module RFM-2-NF) RFM-2-NF RFM-2-NF (same as type designation) e.g. V1.0 B&R Automation Panels Series AP1000 and AP5000 2 Operational description The B&R wireless board RFM-2-NF is used to add basic RFID functionality to a B&R Human-Machine-
Interfaces and is integrated in a B&R Automation panel with or without optional expansion equipment (here called host). The electrical connection is realized via a host interface. The host in combination with the auxiliary equipment provide an isolated power supply and realize the data exchange between host and wireless board. The combination host plus auxiliary equipment act as master. The SRD controller enables the B&R wireless board RFM-2-NF to communicate with various passive transponders (TAG). The RF-
control sequence depend on the type of transponder used. Details of supported transponder types and corresponding standards are listed below. A B&R Human-Machine Interface can be realized by combining a B&R Automation Panel with optional extensions for e.g. push buttons and key switches and different auxiliary equipment like Panel PCs, B&R Automation PCs, Display Links, power supplies, data and power supply cables plus optional accessories like flexible swing arm mounting systems and handles. So a variety of Human-Machine-Interfaces are avail-
able, but the RFID functionality is exclusively realized by the B&R wireless board RFM-2-NF. The end devices containing the RFM-2-NF are operated exclusively in an industrial environment. The main nominal RF characteristics are 13.56 MHz, low power device and short range of 2-10 cm. The following conditions and constructional data apply:
General (-20C to 55C Portable (-10C to 55C) Equipment for normal indoor use (0C to 55C) The radio equipment RFM-2-NF and auxiliary equipment is operated with the following set of cables:

Standard Documentation for Radio Equipment Certification Auxiliary equipment 7 Auxiliary equipment This section describes the used auxiliary equipment and refers to hardware, software and instructions for conducting RF testing and is addressed to inspection engineers. It is not part of the ordinary user manual bundled with the product, but describes the test jig. It provide the necessary information together with the sample(s) to ensure that the required RF testing can be conducted. The test equipment (test jigs) containing the device under test but also the necessary ancillary and auxiliary equipment and the accessories have an own set of accompanying documents that is part of the delivery or is provided electronically to the test house. The setup of the test jigs is done in a manner that that testing can be done effectively. So modifications or a reduced degree of protection is acceptable. Danger!
Please note that some of the components including the wiring of the test jigs need additional means of protection or are designed to be operated in an electrical cabinet to have safe (galvanic) electrical separa-
tion from mains. Same for possible thermal or mechanical hazards. So installing, handling, operating and disassembling of these components for the testing as stand alone or in combination must only be carried out by qualified technicians. TWN4 Director Tool V1.30: The Director is a tool used to easily test the functionality of Elatec's TWN4 RFID reader. Basic functionality see: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GcXP-vA7SQs. For testing the normal operation mode start the application Director.exe via the desktop icon, select the tab Simple Test, if tab has not been preselected and then press the button Connect. The application proves successful linking to RFM-2-NF module by showing the Status: Connected to USB (COM 4).
