Filtering/Data Extraction Configuration (Serial or Socket Port)
To PLC Filter Mode
Defines the filter/data extraction mode to be employed on data to be sent to
the PLC.
• Off
• String (128 char max) - Raw/ASCII data is filtered up to 128 characters (or
bytes) in length.
• RFID (EPCglobal formats) - RFID data in any of the EPCglobal formats is
filtered, the associated parameters are extracted, and the extracted data
and RFID tag are sent to the PLC in a specified format.
• Barcode (UPC/EAN formats) - Barcode data in specified UPC/EAN formats
is filtered, the associated parameters are extracted, and the extracted
data and barcode are sent to the PLC in a specified format.
To PLC Filtering Options
(RFID Only)
Defines the RFID filtering criteria to the PLC. If an option is enabled, it is
used to decide when an RFID tag can be filtered or sent to the PLC.
• Antenna - Include the antenna number in the filtering criteria. This is
data from the RFID reader and not from the RFID tag itself.
• Filter Value - Include the filter value in the filtering criteria, which is part
of the RFID tag data.
• Serial Number - Include the serial number in the filtering criteria, which
is part of the RFID tag data.
To PLC Filtering Options
(RFID/Barcode)
Defines the RFID filtering criteria and the barcode filtering criteria to the
application. If an option is enabled, it is used to decide when a valid RFID tag
or barcode can be filtered or sent to the PLC.
• Company - Include the company code in the filtering criteria, which is
part of the RFID tag or barcode data.
• Product/Location - Include the product/location code in the filtering
criteria, which is part of the RFID tag or barcode data.
