3 | NOTES REGARDING THE SIMATIC RFID COMPONENTS |
The communication module RF180C is a module for operating RFID components at any controller by means of PROFINET IO.
At the RF180C, up to 2 readers (SLG = write/read device) can be operated in parallel. The user can start a command in parallel on two readers (FB 45 if operated on a SIMATIC S7)
The tag data is accessed by means of addressing the tag physically.
In the SIMATIC S7, FB 45 is provided for this. FB 45 makes available to the S7user an interface that is easy to handle and is equipped with powerful commands (processing a complete tag with a single command; command chaining; S7 data structures by means of UDTs).
Controller
For example, S7400
CPU
PROFINET IO cable
24V for RF180C and reader (SLG = write/read device)
to additional PROFINET IO stations
The RF180C is integrated into the hardware configuration by means of a GSDML file. Then, the RF180C can be configured by means of HWConfig of the SIMATIC Manager.
The GSDML file is provided on the CD "RFID Systems“.
Additional information is available in the operating instructions "RFID Systems Communication Module RF180C“.
