When reading data or writing fixed data, you can use "Repeat Auto" designation or "Repeat Trigger" designation. However, if you write
different data per tag or if you use several commands (e.g., read judge write), you cannot use this function.
To enable this process, you can use the Tag Designation function. By using this function, regardless of timing, you can only send the
commands consecutively to communication with an objective tag without fail. Moreover, a sensor for tag detection is not required. So,
the system configuration can be simplified.
<Example of process sequence>
When you execute a command 1 and command 2 to the tags (A, B, ...) moving continuously, you can use the following sequence.
When you write different data into the tags (A, B, ...) moving continuously, you can use the following sequence.
Code Description
“sa” When a tag enters the communication area, the communication to the tag is executed. The communication is
made to any tag other than the tag to which the communication has been executed immediately before. If the
same tag exists continuously, the system waits until any other tag enters the communication area.
“st”
When a command has been received, the communication is executed to the tag in the communication area. The communi-
cation is made to the same tag to which the communication has been executed immediately before. Even if any different tag
is in the communication area, an error occurs to indicate that there is no tag in the communication area.
