6 Device configuration
To configure the device use the Inveo RFID M1 / U1 Configurator software, which
allows you to define the basic functions of the device. The program can be downloaded
from https://inveo.com.pl/software.
After installing the RFID M1 / U1 Configurator configuration program and starting it,
connect the USB cable to the computer and the module (in this case, the external power
supply of the module is not required – the device is powered via the USB port).
The first line of the program window displays information about the version of the
configuration program – PC version, reader software version – RFID Software and
reader version – RFID Hardware.
It is also an information on whether the configuration program was connected to a reader
Connected / Not connected.

6.1 Outputs
The reader is has 2 relay outputs. Each output can be programmed separately. The fields
in the Outputs segment are used to configure the output settings.
Mode – Sets the output mode. The output can work in the following modes:
• Disable – output is disabled,
• Bistable mode – a relay has one determined status (is engaged or disengaged).
• Astable mode – if the channel will be enabled, the relay is engage and disengage
cyclically. Time of engage and disengage relay:
- Time On – time when a relay is engaged,
- Time Off – time when a relay is disengaged.
• TIME – the output will enable for the Time ON and then the output will disable
(e.g. the control of the electromagnet).

Power ON – the state of the output after powering the device
• Active – output enabled,
• Inactive – output disabled.
State – visualization of the output, if a rectangle is yellow it means that the output
current is turned on.
Buttons Out 1 and Out 2 outputs can activate or deactivate the output.
Active Relay on Card – if the TAG will be read, the output enables.
To set the duration of the active output it is necessary to select the TIME mode and set
appropriate Time ON.
6.2 Inputs
Fields STATE INPUT 1 and STATE INPUT 2 displays the actual state of inputs. Square
field in black – input inactive, field in yellow – active input.
6.3 LEDs and sound signaling control
The RFID M1/U1 Configurator allows user to customize visual and sound indication.
All you have to do is select the appropriate configuration settings and upload it to the
module.
Two options can be set for the Buzzer:
• OFF – signaling device switched off,
• ON – sound signaling at the moment of reading the TAG.
The device has 3 LEDs:
• Power supply diode, green LED,
• LED 1 – red LED,
• LED 2 – green LED.
Regardless of the selected setting, it is always possible to control the signaling
via the Modbus RTU protocol.
User manual RFID IND Modbus-Uni Page 11 of 15
[B03]
6.4 Continuous Read Mode
The device allows the user to define the delay of reading TAGs.
The Continuous Read Mode means that the same TAG can be read only after
the defined time has elapsed but another TAG is read immediately. This means that
the same card will not be accidentally read several times. (30 = 3 seconds)
Attention! If the user uses this option, the read flag of the new TAG will NOT appear.
The device will operate autonomously and automatically allow another reading of the
same TAG after the declared time.
6.5 RS485 – Configuration of transmission
The RS485 section is used to configure device communication.
MODE (setting of 9th bit of transmission):
None
Even – parity bit
Odd – odd bit
BaudRate – transmission speed (1200, 2400, 4800, 9600, 19200, 38400, 57600,
115200)
Device Address – device address for Modbus protocol
Attention! After customizing the settings and saving in the device, it is
necessary to restart the device.

7.1 Modbus Holding Registers addresses
Address R/W Description
1000 R/W IsNewTag – the tag has been read
1 – a new tag
0 – no tag
Flag must be reset (clear to 0) before read next tag.
Same as Single Coil Register 1016.
1001 R UID Length – length of the UID
1002 -1011 R UID – UID number
1017 R MODEL ID – ID of the device
1018 R Software Version
1019 R Hardware Version
1020 R/W Mode OUT1 – output number 1 mode:
0 – Disable – output disabled
1 – Bistable – bistable mode
2 – Astable – astable mode
3 – Time – enable the output for Ton time
1021 R/W Time On OUT1 – time determining how long the output will be
enabled (1-65535) (*0,1 sec)
120 means 12 seconds
1022 R/W Time Off OUT1 – time determining how long the output will be
disabled (1-65535) (*0,1 sec)
120 means 12 seconds

7.2 Modbus Single Coil addresses
Address R/W Description
1000 R/W ON 1 – control relay 1 (off/on)
1001 R/W ON 2 – control relay 1 (off/on)
1002 R COIL STATE 1 – relay 1 coil state
1003 R COIL STATE 2 – relay 2 coil state
1010 R INPUT 1 – input 1 state
1011 R INPUT 2 – input 2 state
1012 R/W LED1 – control LED 1
1013 R/W LED2 – control LED 2
1014 W BUZZ ACCEPT – enable accept sound
1015 W BUZZ REJECT – enable reject sound
1016 R/W IsNewTag – the tag has been read
1 – a new tag
0 – no tag
Flag must be reset (clear to 0) before read next tag.
Same as Holding Register 1000.
1017 R/W ResetFlag:
1 – default state for power-on reader
It can be clear and set by user for diagnostic purpose
The most frequently checked is Single Coil 1016. If its value changes to 1, it means
that the device has read the new tag. Holding Registers 1002-1011 registers contain the
ID of the tag.
When you read ID number you should release Coil 1016 (or Holding Reg 1000) flag
(clear to 0). Only after that the reader is able to read next ID tag.
Modification of the output parameters can be done by the Modbus protocol. It is not
stored in the module's permanent memory. That means after reboot, the output
parameters previously saved to the EEPROM by the configuration program will be
restored.
