RFID

RFID.content

This page is used for RFID configuration (if an RFID reader is installed) and uses functions from the Beckhoff.TwinCAT.HMI.Plastic.RFID NuGet package. A persistent TcHmiSrv symbol of the data type RFIDConfig with the name RFIDConfig is used for the RFID configuration.

The RFID reader used and the associated RFID tags (e.g. cards) can be configured on this page. This is normally only permitted for administrators.

1. Area for configuring the RFID tags
• Switching the Auto-Login on and off.
• When Auto-Login is switched off, the RFID tags can be read and the user name and password are displayed in the corresponding fields.
• When Auto-Login is switched off, the RFID tags can be written to using the fields for the user name and password.
2. Area for setting the COM port
• Display and setting option for the RFID configuration (TcHmiSrv symbol RFIDConfig of data type RFIDConfig): authentication key, baud rate, key type, product ID and vendor ID.
• Button for connecting the COM port using the RFID configuration.
• Button for retrieving information on the connected COM ports.
• Button for copying the selected COM port information (vendor ID and product ID) from the table to the RFID configuration.
• Table for displaying the vendor ID and product ID of the connected COM ports after retrieving the information.

Create user in TcHmiUserManagement Writing a user name and password to an RFID tag does not create a new user. The corresponding user must be created via TcHmiUserManagement. This is done either during engineering using the TwinCAT HMI configuration window or via the UserManagement control on the administration page.
