layudhi Posts: 60 Rating: (1)	Hi All, I'm looking for example of Read/Write data to RFID RF640R from S7 1200 through Ethernet Communication. I have found this from https://support.automation.siemens.com but it is for RFID RF670R only. Can i use the example code given to RFID RF640R ? since RF640R support the Ethernet communication too ? Regards layudhi

Regards layudhi From your linked library page: A SIMATIC RF670-Reader with ethernet interface is to be linked with a SIMATIC S7-1200 controller. With the aid of the RF600-device information from the mobile data memory of the RF6xxT series is read and written. Looks to me like it would be quite reasonable to expect the same sample code to work with the entire family of RF6xxT devices.

Therefore you can use in this example an RF640R instead of the RF670R: http://support.automation.siemens.com/WW/view/en/46476563 Regards Valident

layudhi Posts: 60 Rating: (1)	Hi all, Link which had been given by Valident was same link where I downloaded the code Example for RF670R I have tried the code but still my RF640R can not read the Tag ID nor the Tag Memory, only the TCP/IP connection can be established successfully I tried to look in to the Function Block and tried to trace the sequence, here the result : When i activated "read id command", then : 1. The logic stopped on Step 403 , (Step 400 - 499 are steps to send Read TagID) 2. Step 403 is step where the sequence waiting for TRCV_Instance.NDR to be true 3. The sequence then going to stop because the connection was time-out any idea ? Regards, layudhi

Hi Valident, Thank you very much I have been waiting for this answer I will try it and give my feedback here as soon as possible Thanks & Regards, layudhi Dear Valident, I have tried to change the Reader Type on DB185. But still, my RF can not read the Tag. Actually, after that modification, : 1. The Connection to the RF can be maintained. Befero only few second then terminated 2. The "Read Tag Id Status" gave Ok status (Value = 1). But No Tag that detected. The TagId Field remain empty. Is there any setting that needed from RF Manager Software ? Because I read from the XML manual, it said that once the Reader is configured by FR Manager, it only can be used with RF Manager Runtime. Need advice please Regards, layudhi

This entry must match the entry in cmd_readtagids_source, cmd_job_source(see Table 3-2,Table 3-3 in Documentation). Valident Hi Valident, Yes, I have set the data source name. It already matched with Source name setting from RF-Manager, DB185, cmd_readtagids_source and cmd_job_source. The sequences always stop on step 405 and then back to Step 0 step 405 is waiting for xml function that find for char '0' , 'i' , 'd', and '>' Regards, layudhi regards

layudhi Posts: 60 Rating: (1)	Hi All, Here i Attached some modification that I have made. 1. Attachment 01 - DB185 - As per Valident's guideline, I changed the host-greeting message. From RF670R to RF640R. - Based on this guideline, I also changed all the source name from default value "Source_1" to "sPES01" 2. Attachment 02 - FB184 Network46 - Because of change on Source name character length from 8 (Source_1) to 6 (sPES01), I have to modify the network (see attachment for details) 3. Attachment 03 - FB184 ReadID Timeout - I changed the Timeout timer setting from 2s500ms to 1M. Because on step 403 and 405 it needs more time to execute the fuction. Default timer just made this step to be time-out before it was executed completely 4. Attachment 04 - ReadID Step 406 - The result of my Modification was the Status "Read ID tags Ok" bit become True. It means that the sequence can read the Tag. But on the "Return Tags ID" field was still empty and the "Number of Tag Detected" still 0. - I checked on FB184 Network 406, the Box for S_CONV String to String , on the IN field, it is only filled with '' . Is it ok ? Regards layudhi Attachment MAttachments.pdf (598 Downloads)
