Check that you have the right device variant This UHF system consists of a radio frequency unit and an integrated antenna according to specifications and may only be operated within the specified countries subject to all applicable national legal regulations and standards. Check that the type label contains the correct type approval symbol for your country. When using the UHF system in the European Community, the provisions in ETSI standard 302 208 apply. When using the UHF system in the USA, the directives of the FCC, Part 15 B and 15 C, apply. When using the UHF system in Canada, the directives of the IC, RSS-210 apply. When using the UHF system in Mexico, the directives of the SCT, NOM-121-SCT1-2009 apply. When using the UHF system in Argentina, the directives of Resolucin SC 729/80 and SC 784/87 apply. When using the UHF system in Brazil, the directives of the ANATEL, 506/2008 and 442/2006 apply. When using the UHF system in China, the directives of the RFID National Standard and GB 9254 apply. When using the UHF system in Japan, the directives of "Radio Law" and ARIB T106 apply. When using the UHF system in Australia, the directives of the Radiocommunications Class License 2000 (Item 32A) apply. BF-IDU02 RFID-Reader Connecting the Device The device has to be connected to one of the head connectors "H1" .. "H4" of a Balluff BIS V control unit via standard 4-wire cable with M12 industry connectors. The control unit delivers power supply and controls the device over this connection. Make an additional ground connection to the Functional Ground terminal (Symbol directly or using an RC combination to ground.
) either BF-IDU02 BIS V-6xxx The control unit itself needs to be connected to a power supply and the customer's PLC unit. See the BIS V manual for details. Mounting Before operating, the device has to be fixed mounted with at least 2 screws of M4 or M5 size in mounting holes at back side (see image). The BF-IDU02 device may be mounted in any direction, the operating direction of the integrated antenna is towards the front containing the "BIS VU Identification Systems" label. Optional mounting plates are available for installing the device. The antennas of the identification system BIS U transmit ultra-high frequency electromagnetic waves. People should not remain within close range of the UHF antenna for long periods
(several hours). When selecting the installation position for the BF-IDU02 device, make sure that the minimum distance between the UHF antenna and the workplace is 25 cm. BF-IDU02 RFID-Reader Setup and Operation The BF-IDU02 device will operate when the BIS V control unit receives read or write commands from the connected PLC. See the manual of BIS V control units for how to send commands to the control unit. The transmission power may be set up with Service Software e.g. "Balluff UHF Manager" up to the specified maximum to control the read and write range of the device. Status Indicators The device will show its status using the 4 LEDs at the corners of the housing. In normal operation state the meaning of these lights are as follows:
Green light "Power" indicates that the device is connected to the control unit and ready to operate. Red light "Status" (permanent) indicates that the device's temperature is outside limits, probably because the ambient temperature is too high or the device is defective. Red light "Status" (flashing) indicates that the devices settings are not initialized correctly. Please contact Service. Blue light "RF active" indicates that the device has turned radio frequency transmission on and tries to scan for tags or write or read data over the air. Orange light "Tag present" indicates that at least one UHF EPC Global tag could be found by the device. The light will stay on for at least 3 seconds after a successful scan.
