Device description 2.4 Dimension drawing 12 SIMATIC RTLS4083T Operating Instructions, 03/2020, C79000-G8976-C527-03 Programming interface 3.1 Overview Functionality of the programming interface 3 The functionality of the programming interface is available for the following transponders:
RTLS4083T RTLS4084T The programming interface of the transponder is a functionality supported by the Locating Manager. It enables external client applications to communicate with the transponder via the Locating Manager Server. The transponder can be accessed via WAMP (Web Application Messaging Protocol) independent of the operating system or the code language of the external client. Additional functions of the transponder In addition to the basic function of its use as a localizable node, the transponder offers additional functions such as "ePaper display" or "Control keys", which can be used by the external client applications. The display content is managed via "Themes". A transponder Theme contains a background graphic and various form fields to display text and barcode. A form field is a text field on the display of the transponder with the following configurable properties:
Field type Text field 1D barcode Size and position on the display Font and font size Project-specific requirements for the configuration of the "Themes" as well as the download of the configuration to the transponder can be performed during operation. Optionally, the configuration of the "Themes" can be transferred from the manager to the transponder. Configuration options of the programming interface The following properties can be configured for the transponder via the programming interface:
Request a list showing all configured transponders of a Locating Manager Server. Activation of a "Themes" for the transponder including transfer of the texts / barcodes to be displayed Changing the contents of a form field of a transponder SIMATIC RTLS4083T Operating Instructions, 03/2020, C79000-G8976-C527-03 13 Programming interface 3.2 Communication via the programming interface Query the current text or code and the current "Themes"
Indication of the status of the "Control keys" used 3.2 Communication via the programming interface General The communication of the programming interface is done via a WAMP-Router that is a component of the Locating Manager Server. Establishing a connection from an application to the Locating Manager Server requires the implementation of a WAMP client on the part of this application. There is no provision for client-specific parameterization. A connection can be terminated at any time using the WAMP client application. Properties of the coding The coding via the programming interface has the following properties:
The data to be transferred for the data transport is transferred in the "JSON" format
(JavaScript Object Notation). The text to be displayed is transmitted in "UTF-8" format (8-Bit UCS Transformation Format). Line breaks in text fields are managed using the "\r" element 14 SIMATIC RTLS4083T Operating Instructions, 03/2020, C79000-G8976-C527-03 Characteristics of the programming interface 3.2 Communication via the programming interface Programming interface Blue Communication between programming interface and RTLS Locating Manager Green Communication between RTLS Locating Manager and RTLS408xT Red Communication between RTLS Locating Manager and RTLS408xT All RPC calls (Remote Procedure Call) received by the programming interface are answered immediately. This means that there is no need to wait for an acknowledgment of the RPC call until the data transfer is completed. The completion of the data transmission is confirmed by an event message provided for this purpose. The various event messages can be found in the section "Event messages (Page 18)". The positive acknowledgment of an RPC call does not guarantee or indicate successful transmission and display of new display contents on the transponder. This can occur if the transponder has been switched off during this time or is not within wireless range. Since the SIMATIC RTLS4083T Operating Instructions, 03/2020, C79000-G8976-C527-03 15
Programming interface 3.3 RPC calls commands to be transmitted in the wireless network do not reach the transponder or reach it incompletely, no event message is generated in this case. If an RPC call sets a field form to a value that is already set, an event message is sent immediately. This happens during or very shortly after the RPC call. Event messages are sent when a situation is reached. If a field content still to be transmitted is overwritten again before the previous value could be sent to the transponder, only the value set last is transmitted to the transponder. In this case, only the writing of the last value is acknowledged by an event message. The transmission of background images, fonts and theme files is given higher priority and temporarily interrupts the transmission of text content. 3.3 RPC calls Parameters of the RPC calls The following parameters can be used for RPC calls via the programming interface:
Parameter TransponderID Description 48-bit ID according to IEEE EUI-48 The network address in decimal notation contains the transponder ID:

The devices can only be used in conjunction with the RTLS localization system. Mount the device so that it has a direct line-of-sight connection to the gateways (360 panorama view). Any type of material can impact wireless localization. Wireless localization through metal is not possible. In this case, localization via wireless reflections can occur which results in an inaccurate localization. Check the device for damages before you use it so that it is not damaged during operation. Protect the display from objects that could scratch or otherwise damage it. The specified operating temperature ranges must be observed. The device contains a lithium-ion battery. CAUTION Contact with the battery fluid Incorrect handling of the device may damage the battery and cause fluid to leak out of the battery. Avoid contact with the battery fluid. Rinse skin that comes into contact with battery fluid with water. If fluid from the battery gets into the eye, seek medical attention. CAUTION Handling batteries There is a risk of fire and in extreme cases of explosion in the following cases:
If the battery is improperly charged and discharged If the polarity is reversed If a short-circuit occurs This applies to lithium-ion batteries:
Do not squeeze Do not heat and do not burn Do not short-circuit Do not disassemble Do not immerse in liquid - the battery may crack or burst. SIMATIC RTLS4083T Operating Instructions, 03/2020, C79000-G8976-C527-03 25 Installation & Operation 4.3 Cleaning and maintenance CAUTION Fires and burns Improper handling of the battery can lead to fire and skin injuries. The housing of the device must not be squashed, punctured or exposed to other mechanical influences. Never expose the device to fire, temperatures above 40 C or direct sunlight for an extended period of time. 4.2 Operation Note Operate the device only with the accessories provided for this purpose, which are listed in the section "Order data RTLS4083T (Page 9)". The device is operated with the F1 function key on the front panel. The function of the key can be programmed via the programming interface. If the voltage is too low, the device switches off automatically. The device sends a "Low power"
message to the Locating Manager. The limit above which the device sends this message is configurable. In this case, the device must be fully recharged within 3 months to avoid deep self-
discharge and damage to the battery. See also Programming interface (Page 13) 4.3 Cleaning and maintenance The housing must not be opened. The device may only be repaired by an authorized maintenance company or opened for other types of work. Improper opening or repairing of the device may result in risks for the user. Opening the device without permission renders the warranty of the Siemens AG null and void. Do not clean the enclosure with liquids or abrasive, caustic or flammable cleaning products. Note Due to the integrated battery, the device is a hazardous good. Observe the applicable regulations when shipping. 26 SIMATIC RTLS4083T Operating Instructions, 03/2020, C79000-G8976-C527-03 Installation & Operation 4.4 Charging instructions 4.4 Charging instructions Note Fully charge the device upon receipt. Mount the charging station in a location with cool ambient temperature. The temperature of the device and the ambient temperature must not exceed 40 C for the device to be charged. The higher the temperature, the longer it takes to charge the device. If the device exceeds 55 C during charging, remove the device from the charging station. Allow the device to cool down and try charging it again. If the device becomes too hot again, remove the device from the charging station and contact customer service.
