Hello everyone,
I am a student at Humber College and I ran into an issue regarding the communication between 1756 ControlLogix Allen-Bradley PLC and an Omron RFID Reader/Writer V680S Series. I have set up the .EDS file for the reader to be recognized, so that my PLC can see it.
RSLinx now recognizes the reader and I have also added it as a module under Ethernet/IP communication card section in the RSLogix5000 program.
However, in order for the RFID reader to perform actions (read RFID tags) a certain commands need to be sent from the PLC. The problem is I can not accomplish that. I tried to use MSG instruction to perform communication, but every time I try to run the program, I get an error stating: "Conncetion Failure". The error code that I receive is #0315.
Please help me to figure out what can possibly go wrong in there, I have attached the MSG communication setup. If there is another way of communication from a PLC to a device, let me know, that would be helpful too.
Thank you.
