Features
Up to two readers can be operated on the RF180C at the same time. You can send a
command to 2 readers simultaneously (FB 45/FB 55 or RFID standard profile when
operating on a SIMATIC S7).
The transponder data is accessed using the physical addressing of the transponder. In
SIMATIC S7, FB 45/FB 55 or RFID standard profile are available for this purpose. FB 45 /
FB 55 / file handle mode provides you with a simple-to-use interface with extensive
commands (processing one complete transponder with one command; command linking; S7
