1-1 Features
The V600 RFID System adopts electromagnetic coupling enabling contactless
data communications. It can significantly enhance factory automation (F A) sys -
tems incorporating large-scale decentralized control systems and small lot pro -
duction systems.
V600-CA1A-Vj/RS-232C V600-CA2A-Vj/RS-422
V600-CA1A-Vj/RS-232C The V600-CA1A-Vj includes an RS-232C interface enabling connection to a
general-purpose factory computer
, or IBM PC/A T or compatible. This makes it
possible to process and manipulate large volumes of data with ease using sim -
ple commands.
V600-CA2A-Vj/RS-422 The V600-CA2A-Vj 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-Vj is highly resistant to noise because the RS-422
interface and the power supply circuit are insulated from each other.
1 to 1 and 1 to N Connections 1 to 1 and 1 to N (maximum 16 Units) are possible. It is possible to add horizontal
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.
Easy to Use
• 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/W rite Heads can be connected to one ID Controller providing flexi -
bility for sophisticated production systems.
1-2 System Configuration
The V600-CA1A-Vj ID Controller has a built-in serial interface conforming to
RS-232C, while the V600-CA2A-V j ID Controller has a built-in serial interface
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.
