V670-D13F01H retains its original communication range even when fitted to a steel structure. Made of PPS, Model V670-A81 is
highly resistant to chemicals.

♦ Easy to use

By connecting the programming console model C200H-PRO27 (unbundled, referred to as "ProCon") to the Controller via the special
cable model V700-P10 (unbundled), the system operation status and error log information can be read. This is useful for system star­tup and maintenance at a working site.

Ferroelectric RAM (FeRAM)

Ferroelectric RAM is one of nonvolatile RAMs and data can be written into and read from it faster than conventional memory (such
as EEPROM and flash ROM). Data can be written into the ferroelectric RAM semi-permanently.
While any conventional RAM cannot hold data if nothing is written into it for a specified period (approximately 10 years), the ferro­electric RAM can hold data if anything is written into or read from it. So, the characteristic of ferroelectric RAM is very excellent in
data-holding performance.

Precaution for Correct use

In consequence of diversification of small-size antennas/tags, the ID controller has been upgraded to Model V670-CD1D-V1. Be
sure to combine Model V670-H51 or Model V670-H51Q antenna with Model V670-CD1D-V1 controller. Combination of this
antenna with Model V670-CD1D controller might result in unstable communication.

• Example of Model V670-CD1D-V1 system configuration

Model V670-CD1D-V1 contains a serial interface based on RS-232C and can connect easily to a general-purpose PC and program­mable controller (PLC). Model V670-CD1D-V1 has a command execution mode and self-execution mode as an operation mode and
controls the communication to a tag according to the instructions from a host device (in the command execution mode) or the regis­tered conditions (in the self-execution mode).

2-5-2 Operation Time (Reference)

There are TAT (Turn Around Time) and communication time in the operation time.

TAT means the total processing time required to operate V670 from the viewpoint of a host device. The communication time means a
time required for the communication between an antenna and tag, excluding host communication.

♦

Communication time

Time required for the communication between an antenna and ID tag. The time varies depending on data amount to be read and written.
The communication time can be calculated from the charts and formulas below.

2-5 Communication Range Specifications

2-18

In the communication with a tag, any data is read and written at every 4 bytes. Therefore, to minimize the communication time, specify
the address and the number of bytes suitably so that the address for writing can be a multiple of 4.
Example: If 4 bytes of data is written from the address 0001h, change the address to 0000h.
If you cannot change as stated above due to the structure of change system, add the following time to the communication time.

♦ TAT

Time from the start of command transmission by a host device to the end of receiving of response to the host device. It can be calculated
from the communication time and the number of characters of command/response. The formula is as follows:

TAT = command transfer time + communication time + response transmission time

* The number of bits per character and baud rate vary depending on the communication conditions (baud rate, data length, parity

and stop bit).

Assuming that the number of characters of command is A, the number of characters of response is B, the baud rate is 9600 bps, data
length is 7 bits, parity is even and stop bit is 2 bits, the following formula can be obtained:

When a protect function is used +2.9 ms

When a start address is not a multiple of 4 +2.9 ms

When an end address (start address + the number of addresses) is not a multiple of 4 +2.9 ms

Correct Usage

The formula above calculates the time when processing (transmission of command) starts if the ID tag is within an area
of communication with an antenna. The time varies depending on a communication mode and ID tag status.

Bits per character (bit)

Baud rate (bps)

Transmission time = × number of characters (second)

Depending on an operation sequence, you can specify various communications through the communication command for communica­tion with a tag. The following seven communication designations are available.

Those seven communication designations are classified into three groups; a command trigger system which starts the communication by
sending a command, auto system which detects a tag automatically and executes the communication, and input trigger system which
start the communication by external input.
According to this classification, the operation of every communication designation is described below.

4-1-1 Designation of Command Trigger System Communication (ST)

In the command trigger system communication designation, the communication with a tag is executed by sending a command and the
controller command processing is ended by terminating the communication. If the tag is not in the communication area when the com­mand is sent, an error (error code: 72) is returned to indicate that there is no tag in the communication area. Therefore, you must check
the tag in the communication area with a sensor etc. and return a command.

ST designation:

Code Name Description

ST Single command Trigger When the command is received, the communication with the tag is executed and

the response is returned.

SA Single Auto command After the command is received, the communication is executed when a tag has

been detected in a communication area and the response is returned.

SI Single Input trigger After the command is received, the communication with the tag is executed at the

leading edge timing of external input (TRG) and the response is returned.

RA Repeat Auto command "SA" designation is repeated. The communication with the same tag, which

exists continuously, is executed only one time.

RI Repeat Input trigger "SI" designation is repeated.

PA Poling Auto command "SA" designation is executed and the response is returned by the polling query

(PC) command.

PI Poling Input trigger "SI" designation is executed and the response is returned by the polling query

(PC) command.

Ta g

Antenna

The communication with tag in the
communication area is executed when
a command from a host is received.
So, if the tag is not in the communica­tion area, the response is returned to
indicate that there is no tag in the com­munication area.

4-1-2 Designation of Automatic System Communication (SA/RA/PA)

In the auto system communication designation, a tag is detected automatically. So, unlike the command trigger system, you do not need to check the tag.

SA designation:

For the single designation (SA), the controller command processing is ended by terminating the communication.

RA designation:

For the repeat designation (RA), the system waits until the next tag has come even after the communication is terminated. If the tag
once executes the communication, the tag does not execute the communication until it has moved out of the communication area.
Repeat processing is ended by a command process abort command (AA).

PA designation:

In the PA designation, similarly with RA, processing is repeated until the processing is terminated by a command process abort com­mand (AA). However, no response is made after the communication with one tag is ended. Response is returned by a polling query
(PC) command instead. Use this designation when several controllers are connected to a host device through RS-485, etc. (Commercial
232C/485 converter is required.)

When the tag enters the communica­tion area, the communication starts.

4-1-3 Designation of External Trigger System Communication (SI/RI/PI)

In the external trigger system communication designation, the communication is started at a leading edge of an external input signal.
The communication is directly controlled by output of a sensor which detects a tag in the communication area. So, the communication
can be executed even in a fast line without fail.

SI designation:

In the single designation (SI), the controller command processing is ended by terminating the communication.

RI designation:

In the repeat designation (RI), the system waits for a leading edge of the next input signal even after the communication is ended. The
communication is executed to the tag whenever the leading edge of input signal is detected. Repeat processing is ended by a command
process abort command (AA).

To the external input of ID controller

The system waits for a leading edge of an
input signal when a command has been
issued by a host. (An sensor is one of
examples.) The communication is exe­cuted to the tag in the communication
area at the leading edge of the input sig­nal. If the tag is not in the communication
area, an error occurs to indicate that there
is no tag in the communication area.

When reading data or writing fixed data, you can use "Repeat Auto" designation or "Repeat Trigger" designation. However, if you write
different data per tag or if you use several commands (e.g., read → judge → write), you cannot use this function.
To enable this process, you can use the Tag Designation function. By using this function, regardless of timing, you can only send the
commands consecutively to communication with an objective tag without fail. Moreover, a sensor for tag detection is not required. So,
the system configuration can be simplified.

<Example of process sequence>
When you execute a command 1 and command 2 to the tags (A, B, ...) moving continuously, you can use the following sequence.

When you write different data into the tags (A, B, ...) moving continuously, you can use the following sequence.

Code Description

“sa” When a tag enters the communication area, the communication to the tag is executed. The communication is

made to any tag other than the tag to which the communication has been executed immediately before. If the
same tag exists continuously, the system waits until any other tag enters the communication area.

“st”

When a command has been received, the communication is executed to the tag in the communication area. The communi­cation is made to the same tag to which the communication has been executed immediately before. Even if any different tag
is in the communication area, an error occurs to indicate that there is no tag in the communication area.

There are two operation modes, i.e., Command Execution mode and Self-Execution mode. Through the dip switch 3-2, you can specify
one mode of them to be started at the power ON. Also, you can change the mode by a mode change command (MO) from a host device.

(1)Command Execution mode

The communication is executed by an instruction (command) from a host device. In this mode, you can use all the command. All,
you can read/control the external I/O terminals (IN, OUT1 and OUT2) by a command from a host device.

(2)Self-Execution mode

The communication to a tag is executed automatically according to the operating conditions registered in the controller, the commu­nication result can be judged (judgment conditions), and the self-completion operation, to which is output to the two external outputs
(OUT1 and OUT2) or to the RS-232C port (result output), can be performed. The ID system does not need to be controlled from a
host device. So, a simplified system can be built up very quickly. The following operating conditions can be registered.

The preset operating conditions are stored in nonvolatile memory in the controller. So, you do not need to set them at every power on.

Item Description

Execution process A communication command only can be used. An available communication mode is RA or RI

only.

Judgment condi­tions

One of the conditions below can be specified per output.

1) Judges the communication result and generates output.

2) Compares response data and set data with each other and generates output.

Result output When a preset judgment condition has been met, the three outputs below can be specified. The

judgment condition can be specified per output.

1) Outputs to OUT1. Output time can be specified.

2) Outputs to OUT2. Output time can be specified.

In the controller, you can specify the operation parameters (Communication Restriction Time, Character Interval Monitoring Time and
Response Delay Time) according to your system to optimize the performance and reliability.
Usually, you may use the default values. However, this setting allows you to optimize your system. Those parameters are stored in non­volatile memory in the controller. So, the parameters are not erased even if the power supply turns off.

4-4-1 Communication Restriction Time

In the communication to a tag, if a response cannot be made correctly due to any trouble at the communication after tag detection,
"Retry" is executed to send the same command again.
By specifying the communication restriction time, retry is repeated until the specified time has passed after the command process starts.

In the external trigger system command, command process starts when the command process starts. In the auto system command, com­mand process starts when the tag has been detected.

* If the default value is set, "retry" is repeated 9 times.

4-4-2 Character Interval Monitoring Time

In the controller, a command is recognized by receiving a termination code of command string sent from a host device. However, if the
entire command string cannot be received completely due to any trouble, receiving is monitored for a specified time after the last char­acter is received. Then, a format error (14) is returned.

* The default value is 100 ms.

Setting Range

10 to 990 ms. A default value is 0.

4-4-3 Response Delay Time

When several controllers are connected to a host device through RS-485 etc. (commercial 232C/485 converter is required), RS-485
switches into receiving after data string is sent. Switching time varies depending on a converter. So, if a response from the controller is
fast, the communication cannot be executed correctly.
By specifying the Response Delay time, the response start time can be changed.
* Actual time from the transmission of command to the start of response is internal process time (a minimum time is 0 ms) of the con-

troller + Response Delay time (specified time).

* The default value is 0 ms.

Setting Range

0 to 9999 ms.

By adding a check code to a data in a tag, you can detect a data error arisen from memory rewrite life or unintentional factor. A CRC

code of generating polynomial X

16

+ X12 + X5 + 1 is used as the check code.

For memory check, a memory check command (MC) to write a check code and a memory calculation command (MK) to verify the
check code are used.
In a check block specified by the first address and the number of
bytes, an area excluding the last 2 bytes of the block is a target area
to be calculated and the last 2 bytes are a check code area.

When a command to write the check code is sent, the CRC code of
data in the target area for calculation is calculated and it is written
into the check code area. When a data verification command is
sent, the CRC code of data in the target area for calculation is cal­culated and it is compared with data of the check code area. If
those data match, "0" is returned. This shows that the data is cor­rect in a response status flag. If those data do not match, "1" is
returned as warning.

<How to use>

Calculate/write the check code with the memory check command (MC) after writing a data and verify the check code with the memory
calculation command (MK) before reading it. Beforehand, you can detect data corruption in the tag which is not accessed.

The Write Protect Function prevents a fixed data, such as pallet information or product information stored in memory in a tag, being
erased by careless writing.

By setting protect information in the tag, Write Protect can be enabled in any area (a maximum of two areas) of a specified address. If
you try to write anything into a write-protected page, a Protect error occurs.
The protect area information is set by using a part (address $0000 to 0003) of user data area.
To enable the Write Protect, write the protect area information into a specified address and specify "Protect Setting" with process desig­nation parameter using a tag function setting command (TF). Similarly, to disable the Write Protect, specify "Disable" with the process
designation parameter.

The V670 series RFID system communicates with a tag ((2)) according to the instruction of a command ((1)) sent from a connected host
device and returns the result to the host device as the response ((3)).

♦ Controller operation status

• Waiting for command

This refers to the status that the controller does not execute any command process. Then, the controller can accept all the commands
except the subcommands etc. When the controller has accepted any command, the controller enters the command processing status.

• Command processing

When the command has been accepted, the next command is ignored until the process of such accepted command is completed. How­ever, a command process termination command and reset command can be accepted always.

(3) Data code designation

You can specify in a command a code to be used to transmit a data to be read or written between a host device and ID controller. ASCII
code designation and hexadecimal code designation are available.

• ASCII code (JIS8 unit code) designation "A"

1 Byte of data in a tag is transmitted directly as ASCII code or JIS8 unit code. Transmitted one character is equivalent to 1 byte of data
in a tag. Character data can be read/written directly. However, do not use any control code [SOH] nor [CR] in a data to be transmitted.
If [SOH] or [CR] is specified in a written data, a command error occurs.

<Example of writing>

If you specify "OMRON" as a written data in 5 bytes of memory beginning with the address 10h, the data is written in memory in a tag
as shown in this figure.

<Example of reading>

• Hexadecimal code designation "H"

1 Byte of data in a tag is converted into two hexadecimal characters ("00" to "FF") and transmitted. Transmitted two character is equiv­alent to 1 byte of data in a tag. Be sure to specify a written data with every two characters "00" to "FF" (even number). If any data of
odd number of characters is specified, a command error occurs.

<Example of writing>

If you specify "1234" as a written data in 2 bytes of memory beginning with the address 20h, the data is written in memory in a tag as
shown in this figure.

<Example of reading>

If you read 2 bytes of memory beginning with the address 20h, the read data is "1234" in the data shown in this figure.

Depending on a type of command and the communication designation, receiving the command from a host device to the controller and
the response to the host device vary.

(1) No response

When the controller receives a reset command, the controller does not send any response, performs resetting and waits for a command.

(2) Single response

When single trigger (ST/st), single auto (SA/sa), single input trigger (SI), polling auto (PA/pa) or polling input trigger (PI) is specified
by a command to communicate with the tag, or when a command not for the communication with the tag (communication subcommand,
controller control command or host command) is specified, one response is returned to one command.

(3) Several responses

When repeat auto (RA) or repeat input trigger (RI) is specified by a command to communicate with the tag, several responses are sent to
one command.

operation is the same as the single auto (SA).

SI Single input trigger After the command is received, the communication with the tag is exe-

cuted at the leading edge timing of external input (TRG) and the
response is returned.

RA Repeat auto "SA" designation is repeated. The communication with the same tag,

which exists continuously, is executed only once. Processing is termi­nated by an abort command.

RI Repeat input trigger "SI" designation is repeated. Processing is terminated by an abort

command.

PA Polling auto "SA" designation is executed and the response is returned by a query

(polling). Acceptance response is made when a command has been
received.

pa Tag-specified polling auto The communication with any tag other than the tag to which the last

communication was executed and the response is returned. This
operation is the same as the palling auto (PA).

PI Polling input trigger "SI" designation is executed and the response is returned by a query

(polling). Acceptance response is made when a command has been
received.

So, a repeat system command only can be specified.

Output Signal output: OUT1/2.

Data output: RS-232C.

In the signal output, output time can be specified.
Data output is a response of execution command.

Number of judg­ments

Two judgments per output. One judgment also can be specified.

Judgment condi­tions

• Judgment in communication
result

• Comparison of data of
response

(matched, unmatched, large or
small).

For data comparison, an area to be compared can be speci­fied. (1 to 4 bytes)

Chapter 6 How to Use Self-Execution Mode

6-1 Available Conditions

6-2

Procedure to use the Self-Execution mode is described below.

(1) Connect a host interface, power supply and antenna.
(2) Turn on the power supply.
(3) Check a host communication with a test command.
(4) Register an operating condition with the SE (Operation Condition Setting) command.
(5) Enter the Self-Execution mode through the dip switch (turn ON SW 3-2) or with the MO (Operation Mode Change) command.

If you enters the Self-Execution mode through the dip switch, turn OFF the power supply once, turn on the power supply again and
check the operation.

-- Then, the antenna starts communicating. --

(6) Check an operation by using an applicable tag to check the operating condition.

Here, you can use the Self-Execution mode.
If you want to cancel the Self-Execution mode due to any reason, use the MO (Operation Mode Change) command.

6-2 Setting Procedure

6-3

An example of setting to execute the following items is described.
Communication process : Reads 16 bytes from the address 10h in a hexadecimal number in an automatic operation.
Judgment, OUT1 output : 4 Bytes of data from the address 18 is "00000001" and turning ON for 0.5 seconds.
Judgment, OUT2 output : ON at an error. (Time is not monitored.)
Judgment, RS-232C output : No output.
