  • Page 19: System Overview

    System overview SIMATIC RF200 is an inductive identification system that is compatible with the ISO 15693 standard and was specially designed for use in industrial production for the control and optimization of material flows. In contrast to SIMATIC RF300, SIMATIC RF200 is intended for RFID applications where performance requirements are not very high, for example with regard to data volume, transfer rate or diagnostics options.
