9.1.3
Diagnostics via SNMP
This section is intended for both S7 and XML users (RF650R/RF680R/RF685R).
Using the SNMP, you have extensive diagnostics options for the network functions of the
reader. The following diagnostics options (MIBs) are supported by the readers:
● RFC1213 MIB II (system, interfaces, ip, icmp, tcp, udp, snmp)
● LLDP-MIB
● MRP-MIB
● Automation-MIB
The readers support the SNPv1 protocol. When supplied from the factory SNMP is
deactivated and needs to be activated prior to using it the first time (see section "The
"Settings - Communication" menu item (Page 66)").
You will find detailed information on using SNMP and in particular the structure of the
Automation MIB in the diagnostics manual "Network management diagnostics and
configuration with SNMP (https://support.industry.siemens.com/cs/ww/en/view/103949062)".

are described below.
Tag monitor
Using "Tag monitor", you can read out how well which transponder was identified using
which antenna. on the basis of this information, you can then adapt the various parameters
and optimize the read procedure. You will find further information on the "Tag monitor" in the
section "The "Diagnostics - Tag monitor" menu item (Page 77)".
Log
In the "Log" menu, you will find all the diagnostics messages of the reader that have
occurred. The log helps SIEMENS specialists to analyze errors. You will find further
