The V600 RFID System adopts electromagnetic coupling enabling contactless
data communications. It can significantly enhance factory automation (FA) sys-
tems incorporating large-scale decentralized control systems and small lot pro-
duction systems.
The V600-CA1A-V includes an RS-232C interface enabling connection to a
general-purpose factory computer, or IBM PC/AT or compatible. This makes it
possible to process and manipulate large volumes of data with ease using sim-
ple commands.
The V600-CA2A-V includes an RS-422 interface enabling connection to a
general-purpose factory computer, or IBM PC/AT or compatible. This connec-
tion allows high-speed transmissions of 19.2k bps over long distances of up to
500 m. The V600-CA2A-V
interface and the power supply circuit are insulated from each other.
parity as a FCS (frame check sequence), in addition to vertical parity in the 1 to N
mode, which improves the reliability of the host communications path.
Safety is ensured with powerful check functions such as an innovative error
logging function which records the 30 most current operational errors.
An optional Monitor Unit can be mounted on the ID Controller for the off-line
monitoring of system operations and reading of error log data and error mes-
sages, thus improving system start-up and on-site maintenance.
Two Read/Write Heads can be connected to one ID Controller providing flexi-
bility for sophisticated production systems.
The V600-CA1A-V ID Controller has a built-in serial interface conforming to
RS-232C, while the V600-CA2A-V
conforming to RS-422. These interfaces enable communications with general-
purpose factory computers, IBM PC/AT or compatible, and C200H-ASC02 or
C500H-ASC04 ASCII Unit installed in an OMRON PC.
