Bar code and compactlogic

3 posts in this topic

Hi all, I''ll have to read a bar code 160 time per minute. I have a Compactlogix 1769-L32E and panelplus 700. What is the best way to do that? thanks for your idea

you can use 1769-ASC module to read barcode. But Iam sure ACSII module reads this Fast?

I would just use the serial port on the CompactLogix, running a repeating ARD instruction. 375 milliseconds is a pretty long time in the controller world. Other options include the 1769-ASCII, the Prosoft MVI69-GSC, or 1734-AENT POINT I/O with the 1734-232ASC module if you have several of these barcode readers. Don't try to use the PV+ serial port, the KepServer UCON driver, and a remote macro. Take it from me.
