Error description
4x
0xE6FE0300
•
A parameter of an XML command has an invalid value or the parameter assignment of the
communication module or the reader was incorrect.
Possible causes / action to be taken:
–
Check the parameters in the Ident profile.
–
Check the relevant XML command.
–
Check the parameter assignment in HW Config / STEP 7 (TIA Portal).
–
The "WRITE-CONFIG" command has incorrect parameter settings.
–
After a startup, the reader or communication module has still not received an "INIT".
•
The parameter assignment of the reader or communication module on
PROFIBUS/PROFINET was incorrect and the command cannot be executed.
Possible causes / action to be taken:
–
Length of the input/output areas is too small for the cyclic I/O word.
–
Check whether you have used the correct GSD file.
–
Command (e.g. "READ") issued with excessively long user data.
•
Error when processing the command.
Possible causes / action to be taken:
–
The data in "AdvancedCmd" or "IID_CMD_STRUCT" is incorrect (e.g. "WRITE" command
with length = 0).
Check "AdvancedCmd" or "IID_CMD_STRUCT" and execute an "INIT".
–
The hardware of the reader/communication module is defective. The reader or communi-
cation module receives bad data with an "INIT".
–
Inconsistent length specifications in the command
•
The wrong reset block was selected.
Possible causes / action to be taken:
–
Regardless of the selected reader system, use the "Reset_Reader" function block.
4x
0xE6FE0400 Presence error
A transponder has passed through the transmission window of a reader without being processed.
•
This error message is not reported immediately. Instead, the reader or communication mod-
ule waits for the next write / read command. This command is replied to immediately with this
error and the write/read command is not executed. The next command is executed normally
again by the reader/communication module.
•
You can reset this error status using an "INIT".
•
Bit 2 is set in the "OPT1" parameter and there is no transponder in the transmission window.
4x
0xE6FE0500 An error has occurred that makes a Reset_Reader ("WRITE-CONFIG" with "Config = 3") neces-
sary.
Possible causes / action to be taken:
•
The "WRITE-CONFIG" command is incorrect.
•
After eliminating the error, execute an "INIT".
•
Check the parameter "IID_HW_CONNECT".
4x
0xE6FE8100 A parameter is missing.
