°
Ensure, where possible, that there are no large metal surfaces located in
front of the device.
°
If this is unavoidable, do not mount the device in the same plane as the sur‐
face but rather at an angle of inclination of approx. 10°.

6. Tighten the screws.
✓
The device is approximately aligned with the object to be detected.
7. Check the general suitability of the alignment for objects of different sizes and
varying positions of the transponder in actual operation.
5.5 Mounting external components
5.5.1 Mounting the connection module or fieldbus module
If the device is controlled via a CDB or CDM connection module or CDF fieldbus mod‐
ule, mount the module in the vicinity of the device (RFU62x-101xx, RFU620-104xx).
NOTE
If the PC with the SOPAS ET configuration software accesses the Aux interface (RS-232;
57.6 kBd) of the device via the connection module or fieldbus module, do not locate
the connection module more than a 5 m cable length from the device.
1. Mount the connection module or fieldbus module in the vicinity of the device.
2. Mount the modules in such a way that the fieldbus module or open connection
module are accessible at all times.
NOTE
For detailed information on mounting and electrical installation, please refer to the
respective operating instructions for the connection module and fieldbus module.

5.5.2 Mounting the external read cycle trigger sensor
Conveying line
If the detection of objects with transponders by the device (RFU62x-101xx,
RFU620-104xx) is triggered via an external trigger sensor (e.g. photoelectric retro-reflec‐
tive sensor), mount the trigger sensor at a suitably close distance to the device.
NOTE
A large selection of photoelectric sensors and accessories (brackets, connecting
cables) can be found online at: www.sick.com
