Features
The OMRON V750 RFID Reader (herein after denoted as the reader) uses RFID (radio frequency
identification) technology to read data stored on RFID tags.
The reader supports UHF (ultra high frequency) antennas, which are available separately. The reader
receives tag data through the UHF antenna and transfers data to a remote computer over a network
connection.
Main Features
(1) Well-tuned communication performance and functions for customers' applications
1) Selective communication modes for various applications
Single access mode: reads a tag in high speed if there is a single tag in the communication field.
Multi access mode: optimizes a sequence automatically according to the number of tags existing in
the communication field.
2) Various communication condition setting
Multiple communication conditions suit user's optional usage.
3) Self-operation function
Using two function; command entry function and programmable output function, the reader can
implement simple judgment or processing without instruction from the host.
-Command entry
Can set a command so that the command starts when power is turned on or input terminal signal
is on.
-Programmable output
4 outputs can be used for output terminals to show reader status or communication results. When
the output terminal is used for communication results, the result conditions can be set by
choosing criteria objective such as data value or tag count.

radio waves and enable you to verify performance of tag-reader or analyze phenomena that may
change depending on on-site RF environment.
3) Multiple LED operation displays
The multiple LED indicators show the reader operation status clearly and simply so that you can
understand the status and handle an error quickly if it happens to occur.
4) Automatic antenna detection
This function enables you to check the connection status of antennas when a command is
executed. It helps to detect an error or problem of antenna(s) or wiring.

Reader Operating Mode
Reader operating mode contains three modes, Operation Mode, Safe Mode and Update Mode.
If you push the Mode Switch for 1 second or more and release the switch while the system is running,
or if the reader detects an error (ex. System error or a failure of firmware update), and it can not start
up normally due to this error, the reader will start up under Safe Mode. Under this mode, you can check
the status via Web browser, initialize the setting and install the firmware.
Refer to the Ethernet Interface and RS-232C Interfacein detail.
p. 55communication
Communication Mode
The communication mode can be selected according to changing communication speed with RF tag
such as high-speed communication or reducing speed to get more reliably communication. The
communication mode can be specified by communication setting parameter (SETC).
When the communication mode is set to MODE 0, it represents AUTO MODE that the reader
automatically change the communication speed according to the environmental interferences level.
When using MODE 2 which provides the highest communication speed, interferences between several
readers will be increased, and cause to deteriorate the read performance.
Note: MODE 0 is default setting.
MODE 0 is default setting.
Please test prior to operation to check the influences on interferences with several readers if you change the
communication speed fast.

Function
The reader consists of there parts of function, System I/F function for communication with host system or
controlling general input and output from external devices, control the reader device, and control the
communication with RF tag. As a function of controlling the reader device, it includes Command execution,
Self-execution, firmware update.
System I/F Function
The System I/F provides the command I/F for communication with host system and web browser I/F. It
also provides digital input/output I/F for controlling external input and output devices.
Command I/F Function
Via 10/100BaseT Ethernet or RS-232C, the host issues a command to control the reader. As the
control method, V750 supports original procedures. Same commands are used via Ethernet and RS232C.

Session Setting
The session flag which described in the EPC Global Class 1 Generation 2 air interface standard
indicates the duration of keeping power-on after the RF tag chip is shut down such as it comes out from
the antenna field.
It recommends to use as default settings in normal operation.
The default settings of the session flag are follows.
S0 for communication sequence specified once access (SOC, MOC)
S2 for communication sequence specified repeat access (SRP,MRP)
It can be settable based on the requirements of system operation.
*1: The read rate may drop when the session flag is set to S0 for the communication sequence with
repeat (SRP/MRP), due the reader communicates with several times with the same RF tag and it
increase the communication time. Also it may cause the reader halt error (system setting error) due
to the increase the data trafic on the communication I/F on Ethernet or RS-232C.
[Reference : Class1 Generation2 UHF RFID Protocol for communications Version 1.1.0]
* SL flag which can be specified independently with S0 to S3 is used for filtering function.
Communication option Flag Description
Once Access Mode
- Single Once
- Multi Once
S0 Factory default setting.
In this setting, the reader communicates with all tags existing in the
communication field whenever a command is executed.
S1/S2/S3 In this setting, the reader communicates with un-read tags (it ignores once-
read tags.)
If S1 is set, tag refreshes its S1 flag when a specified time has passed after
flag setting (after communication transaction) regardless of whether tag
energized or not. It means that the tags are read repeatedly in a certain
interval.
If S2 or S3 is set, tag refreshes its S2 or S3 flag when a specified time has
passed after tag energizing stopped. It means that the tag is not re-read unless
the tag stays out of the communication field for the specified time.
Repeat Access Mode
- Single Repeat
- Multi Repeat
S2 Factory default setting.
In this setting, the reader communicates with new-detected tags existing in the
communication field during the command execution.
S0 When there is a tag the reader can not read because of flag conflict with other
readers, this setting enables the reader to read the tag.
S1/S3 If another reader set in the previous process line uses S2 flag, the reader same
flag may encounter the flag conflict. S1 and S3 flags are used to avoid this
conflict. Setting S3 provides same operation as S2 setting. If S1 is set, tag
refreshes its S1 flag when a specified time has passed after flag setting (after
communication transaction) regardless of whether tag energized or not. It
means that the tags are read repeatedly in a certain interval.

selected and used according to the mode and movement of the RF Tag.
Single Access Mode
In this mode, only a single RF Tag can be in the communications area, otherwise
the result of the first communication with tag replies.
Single Once
The reader reads a single tag at a time (One-to-one communication). When the reader detects the first
tag, it returns response and terminates transaction (one response/ one transaction). If the reader does
not detect any tag, it continues the process for a specified period of time. In this case, the response
indicates "0" as the number of tags. If the period is not specified, it continues the process until the
termination command has been sent or until it detects a tag.
• A sequence when the reader detects one tag for the specified period.
Just after the reader communicates the tag, it returns a response (reporting the read tag data) to the
host.
• A sequence when the reader does not detect any tag for the specified period
(There is no tag).
At the end of the specified period, the reader returns a response (reporting "no tag") to the host.
• A sequence when the reader detects two or more tags for the specified period
Just after the reader communicates first the tag, it returns a response (reporting the read tag data) or
(reporting "no tag") to the host.

Single Repeat
The reader communicates with a single tag at a time (one-to-one communication) and repeats the
communication transaction. When the reader detects the first tag, it returns response to the host, then
it begins the next transaction repeatedly. Whenever it detects an unread tag, it reads the tag and
returns read results to the host. It repeats the transaction until the termination command has been
sent.
• A sequence when the reader detects tags one by one as it repeats the transaction.
Just after the reader communicates a tag, it returns a response (reporting the read tag data) to the
host.
• A sequence when the reader carries out the transaction repeatedly and there is no tag.
At the end of the specified period, the reader returns a response (reporting "no tag") to the host.

Note : Programming for communication control
This FCS represents the calculation result of horizontal parity with data and terminator strings. Therefore, The FCS
includes all the code from 00h to FFh.( 00h to 7Fh, in case of data length is 7bits).
Program the communication control to consider that FCS may contain the control character such as SOH or CR.
* Depending on the programming tool or coding method, some of character code can not be used. Please check the
