PLC link-compatible 2D code readers & RFID readers with no communication programme required
Is it difficult to understand the scanner commands and program the PLC? If you are using one of our PLC Link enabled scanners… you can set the scanner to the barcode data write memory address in the PLC and it will automatically write the read barcode data to the specified memory. Memory monitoring logic is all that is required. Of course, the read/write data is also handshaked with the PLC memory.
Our industrial barcode/2D code scanner products come with PLC connectivity as standard. ※Please contact our sales team for compatible models.
Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs) are now an essential part of the automated control of production/logistics sites around the world, and the devices connected to and controlled by PLCs are becoming more diverse every year.
PLCs were developed as an alternative to the relay circuits typical of conventional controllers. They are a type of so-called miniature computer and, like other computers, use a microprocessor for the core parts and are similar in that they are software-controlled. PLCs can control the operation of equipment and machines according to a pre-defined programme, in a pre-defined sequence and under pre-defined conditions, and can also control position, speed and continuous quantity, as well as exchanging information between devices.
