After you have configured all the settings, click "End."

Explanation

Assign the values of buffer memory to the M devices.

Assign the open complete signal of buffer memory entry 20480
(0x5000) to M0.
Assign the open request signal of buffer memory entry 20482 (0x5002)
to M20.
Assign the fixed buffer reception status signal of buffer memory entry
20485 (0x5005) to M40.

Open processing for connection number 1.

When the open instruction F0 is set to ON, the open processing
instruction (M1000) is set to ON.
When the open operation is finished, M0 (open complete signal) and
M20 (open request signal) are set to ON, and the open processing is
stopped. Set the execution type D100 to 0 to configure the settings so
that processing will be performed with the PC parameter settings.
Use the open processing instruction (Z.OPEN) to open connection
number 1.

Reference program (2) Program for reading codes

Reading starts when

F1 is set to ON.

Reading will time out after 2 seconds.

Explanation

Apply the reading start trigger.

When reading start instruction F1 is set to ON, the code reading start
trigger (M8001) is set to ON. When the reading start trigger (M8001) is
set to ON, the "LON" reading start command send instruction (M3000)
is set to ON.
After 2 seconds, reading times out and the reading start trigger (M8001)
is set to OFF.

Reference program (3) Program for sending the reading start Reference program (5) Program for receiving reading data
command

Received data region:

Starting at D501

Explanation

Store the reading data starting at D501.

Data to send: LON[CR]

When data is received from the code reader, M40 is set to ON. The
start of the received data region is set to D500, and the previously
received data is cleared (set to 0). Use the received data reading
instruction (ZP.BUFRCV) to store the received data starting at D500.
(The received data length is stored in the starting entry of D500 and
the received data is stored starting at D501.)

Reference program (6) Close processing program

Explanation

Send the reading start command "LON" from the PLC to the code
reader.
Set D300 to 4 for the number of bytes to send (D301 and D302), and
then store LON[CR], the data to send, as a hexadecimal value in D301
and D302. Use the data send instruction (ZP.BUFSND) to send the
reading start command LON[CR] to the code reader.
* Enter [CR] by directly entering the bits of D302 as shown below.

2 Transmit the ladder program.

When you create a new ladder program or edit an existing one,

"Convert" the ladder program before you transmit it to the PLC.

Data to send: LOFF[CR] In the "Online" menu, click "Write to PLC."

Explanation

Send the reading stop command "LOFF" from the PLC to the
code reader. Select the files that need to be written, and then click "Execute."
Set D400 to 5 for the number of bytes to send (D401 to D403), and
Restart the PLC.
then store LOFF[CR], the data to send, as a hexadecimal value in
D401 to D403. Use the data send instruction (ZP.BUFSND) to send the * Note that the transmitted program will not be applied if you do not

Next, set the reading instruction "F1" to ON to start reading with the
SR‑5000/2000/1000. Then, check that the read data is stored in data
memory starting at "D501."

After you configure all the settings, restart the SR-5000/2000/1000

Next, enter the following settings in the device batch monitor, and
