Areas of application for industrial identification

Common RFID standard configurations from Siemens involve the use of different SIMATIC S7 controller types, SIMATIC interface modules, SIMATIC RFID readers and RFID transponders. The advantage of these configurations is that they significantly simplify configuring and programming the automation solution.
To control the RFID functions, the “Ident” / “Ident Profile” STEP 7 blocks are explained in greater detail.

The following figure shows the structure of the automation task:
