This Driver driver supports communication between Xpanel and the OMRON RFID Reader V680 Series.

  • This Driver driver is developed to support the V680 Command, Antenna 1 for 1:N Communication.

Communication Setup: Xpanel

Create a new Devicedevice

 

To create a new device, select ‘Tools’ → ’I[Tools] → [I/O Devices’ Devices] or click the (blue star) icon in the toolbar. The following picture shows the first step in creating a new device:

I/O Device Name: Give a device name. This name will be used in the tag database, accompanied by the ‘Station Name’.

Select a device type

After selecting the ‘OK’ [Ok] button in the previous step, the ‘Serial Communication Configuration’ dialog box will appear as shown in the following picture:

Select ‘OMRON RFID Reader’ as the ‘Device Type’, and set the communication parameters as shown below.

Note: these settings reflect when pin 9of the RFID DIP switch SW3 is ON (1:N Communication), and the rest of the pins are OFF. If you change the RFID switch settings, you must change the settings in XpanelDesigner to match.

Baud Rate: 9600

Parity: Even

Data Bit: 7

Stop Bit: 2 Bits

RTS/CTS: OFF

Comm. Type: RS232

See the Communication Configuration section for more information about the remaining parameters.

Create a station

Move to the ‘Station’ [Station] tab of the ‘Serial Communication Configuration’ dialog box.

In this dialog box, connected PLC stations can be configured and registered to the Xpanel.

Each field can be configured with the following rules:

Station Name: Designate a name for the station. This will be used in the tag database, accompanied by the ‘Device Name’.

Station Type: Select ‘V680’ (this is the only available option).

Network ID: N/A

Station No: Enter the station number used by the communication module. The station number set within the RFID device configuration must match the number chosen here.

16-Bit Data Swap: N/A

32-Bit Data Swap: N/A

String Data Swap: N/A

Using Checksum: N/A

Comm. Error Message pop Up: When this item is checked, Xpanel displays a communication error message box for every Rx and Tx error. Otherwise (unchecked), Xpanel does not display a message for communication errors. This message box will close automatically after a few seconds.See the Communication Configuration section for more information about the remaining parameters.
