When SECS Is Used
Communication with the host device is possible using the SECS protocol.
When SECS Is Not Used
Communications with the host device follow the OMRON proprietary protocol.
The Amplifier Units are connected directly to the host device without using a CIDRW Controller.
Refer to the following page for specific connection examples.
page 104
Using Link Units (V700-L11) to make connections makes it possible to remove and replace just the relevant
Amplifier Unit while leaving the power to the CIDRW system on in the event of a failure or during mainte-
nance.
These are antennae for
reading the carrier IDs
from the ID Tags and
writing the carrier IDs.
These are units that
control a CIDRW Head.
This is e.g. a host,
or equipment con-
troller.
