Test

As soon as you have created the program in accordance with the preceding chapters, you can now activate the current configuration with the linked variables in the System Manager and place TwinCAT in RunMode.
This is followed by the login on the part of TwinCAT PLC Control and the start of the application.

If you move a transponder in front of your RFID reader, this is detected and the received message as well as the serial number are adopted in the program code. The values are represented online in the program code or in an additional visualization.

Test 1:

The Balluff RFID reader must be configured in a way that is suitable for this functionality. The option 'Type and serial number with CT pres.' must be activated. These and other configuration parameters are described in more detail in the chapter RFID Reader Settings - Balluff. Not every RFID reader supports this setting.
