The operation conditions must be registered in Command Execution Mode using the OPERATION CONDITION SET (SE) command.

p. 153

Self-completion operation can be performed so that communications with Tags are automatically executed according to the operation conditions registered in the ID Controller, the results of communications with the Tags are judged (judgment conditions), and the results are output to the four external outputs (OUT1, OUT2, OUT3, and OUT4) or the RS-232C port. A very simple system can be built because the ID Controller does not need to be controlled from the host device. The following operation conditions can be registered.

Item Settings

Execution processing Only Tag communications commands can be used.

The only RA and RI communications modes can be used.

Judgment conditions One of the following can be set for each output.

1) Output judgment of Tag communications results.

2) Output results of comparing response data to set data.

Result output The following five outputs can be set for when judgement conditions have been met. (See note.)

 Setting Write Protection When Using V600 Commands

There are separate write protection setting methods for the EEPROM (Battery-less) Data Carrier (V600-D23P@@) and the S-RAM (Built-in Battery) Data Carrier of the V600 Series. When using V600 commands with a V680-series ID Controller, the conventional write protection setting method can be used by selecting the ID Controller internal setting and the ID Tag type.

- EEPROM Data Carrier: For the V680-D1KP@@, use the V600 EEPROM write protection method.

- F-RAM Data Carrier: For the V680-D2K/8K/32KF@@, use the V600 S-RAM write protection method.

The ID Controller automatically switches between the V600 EEPROM write protection method and the V600 S-RAM write protection method according to the ID Tag being used, so the user does not need to make this setting.

SECTION 4

The V600 EEPROM write protection method and the V600 S-RAM write protection method can be used only on ID Controllers that are version 2.1 or newer. For details on Checking the Version, refer to page 17.

To set the same ID Tag write protection setting area for EEPROM and F-RAM, use the V680 write protection method.

1. Set the write protection setting of the ID Controller to “Enable.”

• Using the DIP Switch (when pin 1 on SW3 is set to OFF): Pin 7 on SW4: Set write protection to “OFF” to enable write protection.

• Using the Internal Setting (when pin 1 on SW3 is set to ON): PARAMETER SET (SP) COMMAND processing code “H”: Set the write protection setting to “1” to enable write protection.

When the end address for write protection is written into ID Tag address 0000H, the area from address 0001H to the end address is write-protected. The most significant bit of ID Tag address 0000H is used to enable or disable write protection. For this reason, addresses from 0080H to 03E7H cannot be used as end addresses.

Tag Service Life Check

The OVERWRITE COUNT CONTROL command (MDS/MDL) can be used to determine whether the Tag overwrite limit has been exceeded. With the MDS command, the overwrite count is subtracted from the data in the user-specified overwrite count control area to determine whether the number of overwrites has been exceeded. The MDL command can also be used to determine whether the overwrite count (100,000 times) has been exceeded. The overwrite count is added to the data in the user-specified overwrite count control area to determine whether 100,000 overwrites has been exceeded.

MDS Command

The overwrite count control area consists of 3 bytes from the specified start address. The decrement value from the overwrite count is written in this area, and if this value is 0 (00 hex), an end code 76 will be given as a warning. Therefore, to enable control of the number of overwrites, the maximum number of overwrites must be written to the overwrite count control area beforehand. The user-specified number of overwrites can be set to up to 16,700,000. The overwrite life of EEPROM ID Tags is 100,000 (0186A0 hex) at 25 less. The number of overwrites is written to the control area using a hexadecimal value, and can be read using the READ command. If the control area data is already 0, the control area value will not be refreshed, and only a warning will be returned as a response. When the refresh count is set as 00 hex, the count will not be updated, and only an overwrite count check will be performed.

The CRC code is calculated from the generated polynomial expression x

The calculation area is the portion of the check block specified by the start address and the number of bytes excluding the last two bytes. The last two bytes are the check code area. When check code write is specified (process designation: K), the CRC of the calculation area data is calculated and written to the check code area. When data comparison is specified (process designation: C), the CRC of the calculation area data is calculated and a comparison made with the check code area data. If they coincide, an end code of 00 will be returned for the V680 command (75 will be returned for the V600 command), and if they do not coincide, an end code of 76 will be returned as a warning.
