Hi,

I am trying to make a simple project with S7-1200 and RF680R and some RF650A antennas.

I made the project and added the HW. I configured both IPs and also I configured RF680R Reader by his webpage.

Now I'm just trying to detect a tag and act over an output. It's seem so simply, but I'm having some issues. 

Reading the doc, I cant find "PLC data types" from Simatic Ident, as i.e  IID_HW_CONNECT in global libraries section.I am using TIA Portal V14 SP1

Is there a simple way to config and use this RF eader? I never used RFID before. I need some advices

Thanks!

Many thanks,

In these days, I've got some results. I watched other post here where you advised to create a TO_IDENT Object. I did it and then all PLC data types appeared. I had this example (without an ASM) and I tried to used it.

How do I give values to HW_ID, LADDR and CM_CHANNEL inside a TO object? They appears by default but not editable. 

Have I to add IDENT_PROFILE block to my OB1? The docs says:

"Ident profile is required Note that the Ident profile also needs to be integrated in your project even if you only work with the Ident blocks. When executing commands, the Ident blocks access the Ident profile."

but the example without ASM  don't use it.

When I forced EXECUTE in RESET_READER block, Ok, I got BUSY and after DONE output "true" 

Then I forced to 1 EXECUTE in READ block, but I got ERROR output true. In VBM I could see the error: 0x63 Invalid parameter value.

I have four RFID card transponders (SIMATIC RF610T) (Looks like a credit card). Have I to register them in VBM or create some filter before READ block try to recognised them?

Many thanks again

Thanks you so much again.

I said about modify those vars because First I tried to create HWConnect manually with their respective data. But I finally got some progress.:

When I do a EXECUTE Reset_REad, I got DONE -> That is ok.

After that, I do EXECUTE Inevntory, and I got DONE -> that is also good.

In this moment  I could see PRESENCE  in green when a TAG is close to antenna. Also I could see the counter "number of tags" working ok..

I finally got EXECUTE in Read with DONE result. I send : add=0, len data=2, len ID=0, len EPCID=0 and the status of read is 0.

My problem now is I can´t write in USER memory tags. I'm getting this error:

"Result code of the reader: 26 - ERROR_TAG_LOCKED A tag to be accessed is locked. (Command writeTagMemory: ID: 0006 Antenna: Antenna01)" 

I attached a screenshot

All my four RFID tags (SIMATIC RF610T) said the same. Any idea?

Thanks
