Equipment installation

Connection

In the application system, the connection relationship between the reader, electronic tag, and controller (or PC) is shown in the following picture:

Connect the reader and the controller

The VI-IR600 reader can communicate through any of the network ports,
RS485 ports, or RS232 ports.

  1. RJ45
    Use RJ45 interface to communicate, support 10M/100M transmission rate, using network cable, it is recommended that the transmission distance should not be greater than 50 meters.

  2. RS485 port
    To use RS485 interface to communicate, you need to connect the two wires RS485+ (brown) and RS485- (blue) on the reader to the corresponding two pins of the controller. It is recommended that the transmission distance should not be greater than 80 meters.

  3. RS232 port
    The RS232 interface can be directly connected to the PC with a supporting cable. It is recommended that the transmission distance should not be greater than 10 meters. The connection diagram is shown below:

Connect power supply

VI-IR600 reader adopts +12V/3A DC power supply. The AC/DC converter that meets this requirement is provided by our company together with the reader. The power connection method is as follows:

  1. Check and confirm whether the voltage and operating frequency of the AC power supply meet the requirements of: nput: AC100-240V, 50/60Hz 2.0AOutput: DC 12.0V,3.0A
  2. Insert the DC output plug of the power converter into the +12V DC input port of the reader
  3. Insert or connect the 220V AC power input line of the converter to the AC power supply line
  4. The power indicator of the reader should be lit, indicating that the power input is normal.

Equipment joint debugging

The key of equipment joint debugging is to adjust the height, direction angle and inclination angle of the antenna so that the reader can read the electronic tags within the desired range. The debugging method is:

  1. Turn on the power of the reader, set the reader to continuous working mode, close the parameter setting program and disconnect the connection with the PC.
  2. Turn off the power of the reader and then turn it on again, the reader will automatically enter the continuous working state.
  3. Since the material of the identified object is different, the required label is also different. Therefore, when debugging, the electronic label should be affixed to the object with the same material as the surface of the identified object, and back and forth within the range where the label is expected to be read. Move objects. If the reader can read the electronic label correctly, the built-in buzzer will sound and the green LED will flash.

Note: The reader only radiates microwave power when reading and writing tags. At this time, the installation and debugging personnel should be at least 30cm away from the antenna to meet the requirements of the United States FCC for the maximum allowable radio frequency (RF) radiation requirements for human exposure.

Equipment joint debugging

The key of equipment joint debugging is to adjust the height, direction angle and inclination of the antenna so that the reader can read the electronic tags within the desired range. The debugging method is:

  1. Power on the device, use the “RFID Reader Management System” to connect the reader, turn on the reader’s buzzer, set the reader to automatic working mode, select the corresponding interface for the reporting interface, and select the reporting mode Report immediately or report regularly or report in real time.
  2. Because the material of the identified object is different, the required label is also different. Therefore, when debugging, the electronic label should be affixed to an object with the same material as the surface of the identified object, and the object should be moved back and forth within the range where the label is expected to be read. If the reader can read the electronic label correctly, the built-in buzzer will sound and the blue LED will flash.

Note: The reader only radiates microwave power when reading and writing tags. The installation and debugging personnel should be at least 40cm away from the antenna to meet the requirements of the US FCC for the maximum allowable radio frequency (RF) radiation requirements for human exposure.

Stick tag

In the application process of radio frequency identification system, labeling is often done. The issues that need to be paid attention to when labeling are:

  1. Use the adhesive glue recommended by the manufacturer.
  2. For labels applied to metal surfaces, special adhesive glue should be used.
  3. The position of the label on the surface of the object must also undergo field tests to ensure the best reading and writing effect.
