WARNING It is extremely important that a V720-series Electromagnetic Inductive RFID
System be used for the specified purpose and under the specified conditions,
especially in applications that can directly or indirectly affect human life. You
must consult with your OMRON representative before applying the System to
the above-mentioned applications.
3 Safety Precautions
WARNING Always connect to a ground of 100 Ωor less when installing the System. Not
connecting to a a ground of 100 Ωor less may result in electric shock.
WARNING Do not touch any of the terminals or terminal blocks while the power is being
supplied. Doing so may result in electric shock.

•Be sure that all the mounting screws, terminal screws, and cable connector
screws are tightened to the torque specified in the relevant manuals.
•Be sure that the items with locking devices are properly locked into place be -
fore using the System.
•Do not remove the ferrite core attached to the V720-H01-E.
•Be
sure to observe all warnings, cautions, and safety precautions specified in
the manual.
5 Correct Use
Caution Do not install the V720-H01-E in the following locations:
•Locations subject to direct sunlight.
•Locations subject to condensation as the result of severe changes in tempera -
ture.
•Locations subject to corrosive or flammable gases.
•Locations subject to shock or vibration.
Caution The
RFID System operates at a frequency of 13.56 MHz to communicate with
the T ags. Be sure to observe the following precautions to minimize the electrical
noise that may be caused when the RFID System is placed near transceivers,
motors, monitoring devices, or power supplies. Also confirm that the System is
not affected by such noise in advance.
•Connect surrounding metallic devices to a ground of 100 Ωor less.
•Do not wire the lines of the RFID System alongside high-tension or power
lines.
•Check
the polarity of each terminal and make sure not to make mistakes in po -
larity.
Caution Be sure to observe the following precaution when cleaning the V720-H01-E:
•Organic solvents may damage the paint coating on the casing or resin part of
the product. Do not use paint thinner or any other organic solvent to clean the
product.
6 Applicable Standards
The V720-H01-E conforms to the following standards:
•European Standard
EN 300 330 (1999)
ETS 300 683 (1997)
EN 60065
•FCC (USA)
FCC Part 15 Subpart C
•CCA (Canada)
CCA 210 Category I Equipment
•ARIB (Japan)
ARIB STD-T60
7 EN/IEC Standards
•In connection with EC unification, eighteen European countries will integrate
their conventional safety standards into EN standards. When the EN stan-

xiv
dards come into effect, they will apply as the unified European standards in
place of the conventional safety standards.
•EN standards are based on IEC standards. Therefore, machines that are ex -
ported to Europe from Asia or North America must satisfy EN standards.
Otherwise, the machines must satisfy IEC standards if the machines do not fall
under EN standards.
•The
CE marking is provided by EC Directives. A product bearing a CE marking
meets the safety standards specified by all relevant EC Directives. If the prod -
uct is a machine, it must satisfy the EC Machinery Directive, Low-voltage Di -
rective (L VD), and EMC requirements of the EC Directives. The product must
satisfy the EMC and L VD requirements of the EC Directives, if the product is a
home electronics appliance or office machine, and the R&TTE Directives as
well as the EMC and L VD requirements of the EC Directives, if the product is a
wireless or remote communications terminal. Machines bearing CE markings
can be freely exported to European countries. In other words, a CE marking is
the passport for export to Europe.
•EC Directives are provided for the purpose of European unification. Approxi -
mately 300 EC Directives have been passed. EC Directives for machines are
called Machine Directives. According to the Machine Directives (EC Directive
Document number 89/392/EEC), machines exported to Europe on and after
January 1, 1995 must bear CE markings.
•EMC
standards are for electro-magnetic compatibility . A machine must satisfy
the EMC requirements of EC directives by taking countermeasures against
EMI (electro-magnetic interference) and EMC (electro-magnetic susceptibil-
ity).
•R&TTE Directives are for wireless communications and remote communica-
tions terminals.

Characteristics The V720-series Electromagnetic Inductive RFID System is ideal for the
construction of highly functional, long-distance wireless ID systems for material
control and logistics.
V720-D52P30
V720-D52P40
V720-H01-E V720-CD1D
The V720-H01-E Read W rite Antenna (hereon referred to as the “Antenna”) is a
general-purpose antenna that is 250 by 200 mm in size. It can be used for com -
munications
between V720-D52P30 and V720-D52P40 T ags up to a maximum
communications distance of 250 mm.
The V720-D52P30 and V720-D52P40 RFID T ags (hereon referred to as “T ags”)
are
tags with a memory capacity of 44 bytes. Both T ags are card-shaped. The
V720-D52P30 is laminated with clear PET , and the V720-D52P40 is molded with
PET resin.
The RFID System operates in either multiple, simultaneous access mode or
FIFO
(first-in, first-out) read/write mode. In multiple, simultaneous access mode,
if there is more than one Tag in the communications area, the RFID System
reads and writes data from and to all the Tags at one time. In FIFO read/write
mode, the RD-ID System reads and writes data to one T ag after another as they
come into the communications area.
