Hi all! I´m totaly new to PLC´s and I am having some problems. The thing I´m trying to do is read/write some RFID tags... The setup is the following:
I think i got the hardware configuration done ok, atleast i found the communication module and was able to set it´s IP-adress. (gsdml-v2.2-siemens-rf180c-20100329.xml) I also got som RDIF software RFID Systems, software and documentation V10.0 (6GT2080-2AA20) In the documentation i have found that to use the reader I should use the functionblock FB45. This functionblock is included as a .zip file. Im unable to import the function to STEP 7 Basic because the file format is .s7p. Do I need some other software to ger this RFID reader working or am I missing something, a trap for young players perhaps? I hope you guys can shed some light on this problem Thanks in advance! |

Hello Drivecraft, I fear if this configuration will work out. 'cause you have a TIA Portal based block for this RF180C, but it is available only for S7-300. There's a new PROFINET RFxxx planned for release in next year. Whereas now you can use a RS232 based RF insead of the RF180C. So that you can use the S7-1200 (u don't need to replace it) |
