Parameter assignment with the device configuration
You can set the parameters for the reader connected to the RF120C in the properties
window of the RF120C. Using the "Parameter" menu item, you can set all reader-specific
parameters. When using the RF180C and ASM 456 you also need to specify these
parameters in the Reset block of the application (see Appendix B). This means that no
further parameter assignment in the program is required for the RFID readers when working
with the RF120C. For reasons of compatibility with the communications modules RF180C
and ASM 456 you also have the alternative of setting parameters for the RF120C using
special Reset blocks (see Appendix B).
The "Parameter" main menu item is divided into the following two menus:
●
Reader
●
Reader System
●
Reader type (RF600 only)
4.3.1
Menu: Reader
The "Reader" menu contains the following submenus:
●
Diagnostics: Setting to decide whether or not hardware diagnostics messages are
reported.
●
Reader System: Selection of the connected RFID system. Depending on the selection
you make, the "Reader System" submenu is adapted.
