Communication Test - Mitsubishi Electric ER-1V680D1 User Manual

Communication test

This function is used to read data from an RF tag without running a program.
If an error occurs when data is read from an RF tag, this function shows whether the error is caused by the program, antenna,
or RF tag.
Communication with the antenna is performed every 1 second. For ER-1V680D2, CH1 and CH2 alternately communicate with
the RF tag.
• The communication test is performed only when reading. The test is not performed when writing.
• CH1 and CH2 alternately repeat to communicate with antenna regardless of the setting in Test operation
antenna specification area (Un\G8001).
Communication test using programs
This section describes the communication test method.
1.
Check of parameters
Check that "Enable" is set to "Enable channel 1 TEST mode", "Enable channel 2 TEST mode (ER-1V680D2 use)" and
"Enable Y contact test request".
2.
Operation setting of TEST mode
Set "0000H" to Test operation mode specification area (Un\G8000).
3.
Setting of the number of processing points during testing
Set the number of test operation bytes to No. of processing points during testing specification area (Un\G8002).
4.
Starting to communicate with RF tag
When TEST mode execution request (Y15) is turned on, the module communicates with the RF tag.
5.
Check of test results
The test results are stored in Processing result monitor storage area (Un\G42, Un\G4042). ( Page 80 Test results)
Ex.
Program that starts a test under the following conditions when M0 turns on
• Operation mode: TEST mode (Communication test)
• No. of processing points during testing specification: 1 byte
