Product description
4 Product description
The brand name IDENT-I System P represents a complete identification system. The read/write
station consists of the read/write head IPT*-FP (standard version: IPT1-FP) and the lower
section U-P*-R4 with addressable serial interfaces RS485. With the use of 125 kHz technology,
the system is extensively open for the implementation of other components.
U-P*-R4 stands for:
U-P3-R4 = Standard device with metric ISO thread (EU)
U-P4-R4 = Standard device with NPT pipe thread (USA)

4.1 Product family
The inductive identification system IDENT-I system P from Pepperl+Fuchs offers various
possible combinations of individual components.
4.1.1 Code/data carrier
A wide assortment of designs is available for the inductive 125 kHz code and data carriers.
Data carriers are available for temperatures up to 300 °C (max. 5 min) in chemical-resistant
housings for installation in metal and in protection class IP68/IP69K. IPC02-... code carriers
offer 40-bit fixcode. IPC03-... data carriers have 928 bits of freely programmable memory and a
non-variable fixcode of 32 bits. The storage area of the IPC03-…can be protected against
unauthorized read and write. 40-bit fixcodes that can be freely determined can be generated
with IPC11-... code carriers. These fixcodes can be generated one time permanently or they
can be modifiable.

6.1 General information on commissioning
After connecting the supply voltage, the green LED must illuminate. Configure the read/write
station with the described system commands.
The factory set transfer rate is 9600 baud and no timeout. “Autodetect”is set as the data
carrier type.
6.2 Commands
To operate the read/write station, commands are sent to the station. The station reacts to them
–with the exception of the reset command –by sending an acknowledgement of receipt. Data
is retrieved with get data commands.
The commands contain the number of the read/write station <KopfNr>, so that individual
stations can be addressed in a multidrop connection.
To avoid a number of stations communicating simultaneously, the master or host must wait for
a response after sending a command (other than the reset command). This takes place in a
maximum of 250 ms. If the master does not receive a response after this time, no read/write
station with the requested head number is functional.
All of the system settings received by the interface are stored in a non-volatile manner. They
are automatically active after a reset.
All commands conclude with the characters <CHCK> = “checksum”and <ETX> = “end of text”.
This serves to secure the data of the serial transfer. For simplified usage with a standard
terminal, the read/write station also accepts a #<CR> [<LF>] in place of <CHCK> <ETX>.
Warning!
Before commissioning, ensure that the plant is not in danger relating to device malfunction, e.g.
from uncontrollable triggered processes.
Note!
Before commissioning, check once again that the connections are correct.

6.2.2 System commands
get data
This command retrieves the data from the read station.
Data is only available for read commands. The data component is missing for write
commands.

This command transfers the software version.

Note!
After a reset, a get data command returns the status "2" (switch-on message).

Change Tag
This command tells the read station, which tag to communicate with. The read station status on
delivery is Type “00”.
The following data carrier types are currently supported:
With the type <TagType> = “00”, mixed operation of different code/data carriers is possible.
Since the read/write station for the autodetect requires a significantly longer time, only static
read and write is practical in this mode. In the “autodetect”operating mode, the parameters
word start address and word count are only first checked when a data carrier is read or written
because the memory ranges differ for the various data carrier types. The error message “Status
4”can therefore only occur when a data carrier is before the read/write station.
Quit
The running buffered, enhanced-buffered or auto command is interrupted.

Configure Interface
This command sets the timeout and the baud rate. The values are stored in a non-volatile
manner. A change always requires a reset to take effect.
The timeout indicates the amount of time, after which the device no longer waits for more
characters in a command. After the timeout runs through, the user gets an error message. To
deactivate the timeout, the time must be set to “0”.
The number of data bits is always 8. A parity bit is never used.
The following settings are possible:
The default values are a timeout of “0”and a baud rate of “9600”.
Reset
This command sets the changed system settings, e.g. timeout and baud rate, newly loaded
from the non-volatile memory.
Configuration store
If <Param> = “1”, the next command entered in this setting is stored in the non-volatile memory.
This command is also executed. After a reset it is automatically active again.
<Param> = “0”deletes the stored command.

Single Write Words:
One attempt is made to write <WordNum> 32-bit words from the address <WordAddr>.
Auto Write Words:
Repeated attempts are made until <WordNum> 32-bit words are written from the address
<WordAddr>.
Buffered Write Words:
Repeated attempts are made until <WordNum> 32-bit words are written from the address
<WordAddr>. After every successful write, the response is sent and then continuous reading
ensues. Then the same data carrier is read, until it has left the read/write range or a new data
carrier appears in front of the read/write head. The command then starts again from the
beginning.
Enhanced Buffered Write Words:
This command behaves like the Buffered Write Words command. When a data carrier leaves
the read range, the status “5”is output.
Single Read Fixcode:
One attempt is made to read a fixcode.
