The SICK RFH6xx Series RFID Reader is an ISO/IEC 15693-compatible RFID read/write device for read ranges of up to 240mm. The compact design and integrated antenna offers flexibility and cost-effective and expansion of existing systems. Units offer compatibility for standard fieldbus systems via a universal connector. The integrated signal and data processing allows for identification at extremely high process speeds. The use of trigger signals and situational control of output permits the RFH6xx Series to operate as an independent remote solution. The configurable data output formats enable integration into existing IT infrastructures. This product line complies with CE and FCC requirements for wireless equipment and can therefore be used worldwide. The intuitive SOPAS user interface makes it easier to access other functionality including cloning, diagnostics, heartbeat, script language, and time-controlled data output.
