jeepers52002 Posted September 26, 2019 Report Share Posted September 26, 2019 I stumbled across a PDF document for use with some type of Demo setup that Unitronics has that included mention of an RFID reader. Has anyone used an RFID tag reader with the UniLogic PLC? If so, can you share which reader you used and any road blocks you might have encountered along the way? I'd like to implement one for door access on a smart home project. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MVP 2023 Joe Tauser Posted September 26, 2019 MVP 2023 Report Share Posted September 26, 2019 I have one of those demo cases. This is the RFID reader it uses- https://www.promageurope.com/products/rfid-readers-and-writers/rfid-readers-20cm-gp20-30cm-gp30.htm It sends the data to a V700 via ethernet. I'd ask Unitronics at support@unitronics.com for the UniStream Demo Case V700 program to get sample code. Joe T. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MVP 2023 Joe Tauser Posted September 28, 2019 MVP 2023 Report Share Posted September 28, 2019 I realized you are asking about running an RFID reader into a UniStream. I looked at the V700 demo program and it's reading data from the RFID reader as UDP RAW data. Vision is very different from UniStream on how it interfaces to external devices. Getting back to your question, I have connected barcode readers to a UniStream using RS232 and it wasn't much trouble. I did have to get an RS232 com module for for the UniStream. So probably the next thing to do is for you to pick out an RFID reader and we'll help from there. Joe T. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cam Posted October 11, 2019 Report Share Posted October 11, 2019 RFideas makes an Ethernet/IP enabled reader that you can interface in to a UniStream. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pascal Posted August 7, 2020 Report Share Posted August 7, 2020 I use Sick RFU610-10600 rfid reader, connected via TCP Sick provides a EDS file, so very easy to configure ! no programming needed..... just add a node in ethernet/ip scanner and that's it...
