OVERVIEW
The RFID interface module is mounted on a base unit of the Mitsubishi general-purpose programmable controller MELSEC
iQ-R series, enabling reading and writing with Omron RFID system V680 series RF tags.
The RFID interface module has one or two channels that connect to a V680 series antenna, and fulfills the role as an interface
for V680 series RF tag reading and writing and the CPU module.

RFID interface module features
This section describes the features of the RFID interface module.
■Compatible with Mitsubishi Electric MELSEC iQ-R series products
• Using an RFID interface module (ER-1V680D1/ER-1V680D2) together with a Mitsubishi Electric MELSEC iQ-R series CPU
module enables the CPU module to control Omron RFID system V680 series products. RFID sensor systems using rich
and various products of Mitsubishi Electric MELSEC iQ-R series can be constructed by using the RFID interface module
(ER-1V680D1/ER-1V680D2).
• An RFID interface module (EQ-V680D1/EQ-V680D2), which is manufactured by Mitsubishi Electric Engineering Co., Ltd.
and used with MELSEC-Q series products, can be replaced with this RFID interface module (ER-1V680D1/ER-1V680D2)
in a simple way, since the ER-1V680D1/ER-1V680D2 are compatible with I/O signals and buffer memory of the EQ-
V680D1/EQ-V680D2.
• The event history including errors, alarms, and operation is saved to the CPU module. The event history is used to identify
the error causes from the operation at the time of error occurrence or the tendency of the error occurrence.
• The RFID interface module is available for the online module change. When an error occurs, the RFID interface module is
changed without stopping the programmable controller system. ( MELSEC iQ-R Online Module Change Manual)
• The RFID interface module allows you to develop programs by using an FB (function block) library that can be used with
Mitsubishi Electric MELSOFT GX Works3. ( MELSEC iQ-R Series ER-1V680D1 Type/ER-1V680D2 Type RFID
