Security information
Siemens provides products and solutions with industrial security functions that support the
secure operation of plants, systems, machines and networks.
In order to protect plants, systems, machines and networks against cyber threats, it is
necessary to implement – and continuously maintain – a holistic, state-of-the-art industrial
security concept. Siemens’ products and solutions constitute one element of such a concept.
Customers are responsible for preventing unauthorized access to their plants, systems,
machines and networks. Such systems, machines and components should only be
connected to an enterprise network or the internet if and to the extent such a connection is
necessary and only when appropriate security measures (e.g. firewalls and/or network
segmentation) are in place.
For additional information on industrial security measures that may be implemented, please

4.4 Project preparation
Ident profile, Add-on instruction for Rockwell systems
Function Manual, 01/2019, C79000-G8976-C410-03 17
4.4
Project preparation
To prepare the project and configure the individual instructions, you must first perform the
following steps:
1. Configure the parameter instruction ("Param_*") and address the modules.
2. Assign parameters to the "RESET" instruction.
You can then configure the required instructions accordingly.
Addressing the Ident devices
When working with all instructions, you require a variable of the "IID_HW_CONNECT" data
type for addressing the reader / communication modules. The "IID_HW_CONNECT" variable
relates to a read point /channel of the reader and is part of the "IID_DATA_*" data type.
Setting the command parameters for the Ident profile is handled by the Ident instructions.
The Ident profile and the "AdvancedCMD" instruction also require the variable of the
"IID_CMD_STRUCT" data type for the configuration of the individual commands. Depending
on whether you work with the Ident profile or the Ident instructions, you need to integrate and
assign parameters for these data types as described in the following sections.
4.4.1
Configuring instruction
You first need to link the corresponding parameter instruction ("Param_RF68xR" or
"Param_RFID181EIP") to the project and create and assign the relevant variables for the
parameters "READER_CONFIGDATA" and "MSG_PARAM". Using the parameter
instruction, configuration data can be sent to the Ident system.
In addition to this, the instruction resets the required start values of the "IID_HW_CONNECT"
variables for the reader channels (read points).
Note that this instruction always needs to be executed first before other instructions can be
executed. The instruction must be executed each time the controller or reader/CM is
restarted.

Ident profile, Add-on instruction for Rockwell systems
18 Function Manual, 01/2019, C79000-G8976-C410-03
Feed for instruction "Param_*"
Proceed as follows to create the "Param_*" instruction:
1. Drag the instruction from the "Controller Organizer" into the project.
2. Create a instance variable.
3. Create a global variable for the "CONFIGDATA" parameter.
The variable of the data type "IID_DATA_*". The variable is called as an example for the
following "RfidDevice01_ConfigData" description.
4. Create a global variable of the "MESSAGE" type at the "MSG_PARAM" parameter.
5. Configure the variable of the parameter "MSG_PARAM" ("...") as follows:
In the "Configuration" tab:
–Message Type = CIP generic
–Service Type = Custom
–Service Code = 41
–Class = 80
–Instance = 1
–Attribute = 1
–Source Element = RfidDevice01_ConfigData.Parameter
–Source Length = 10
In the "Communication" (only with RF68xR):
–Large Connection = ✓
6. Select the relevant Ident device for which you want to assign parameters in the
"Communication" tab in the text box "Path".
7. If the instruction for the RFID181 EIP communication module has been created, assign
the "MOBY_MODE" and "BAUD_RATE" parameters the appropriate values.
You can find more information on this subject in the section "Param instructions
(Page 20)".
8. Start the instruction by calling the "EXECUTE" parameter.
4.4.2
Configuring the reset instruction
In the next step, a reset instruction must be created, configured and executed. You can use
a specific reset instruction (such as ""Reset_RF68xR") or the Ident profile with a "WRITE-
CONFIG" command to do this. Both procedures require two additional global message
variables for the "MSG_READ" and "MSG_WRITE" parameters. These two variables can
used with all other instructions.
Before the read point of the reader is operational, the "WRITE-CONFIG" command needs to
be executed. This resets the relevant read point.

Ident profile, Add-on instruction for Rockwell systems
Function Manual, 01/2019, C79000-G8976-C410-03 19
Feed for instruction "RESET*"
The procedure is described below using a specific "WRITE-CONFIG" instruction. The
procedure for using the Ident profile with a "WRITE-CONFIG" command is identical.
Proceed as follows to create the "Reset_*" instruction:
1. Drag the instruction from the "Controller Organizer" into the project.
2. Create a instance variable.
3. Select the variable ("RfidDevice01_ConfigData.CH01" in out example) for the
"HW_CONNECT" parameter.
4. Create a global variable for "MSG_READ".
5. Configure the variable of the parameter "MSG_READ" ("...") as follows:
In the "Configuration" tab:
–Message Type = CIP generic
–Service Type = Custom
–Service Code = 40
–Class = 80
–Instance = 1
–Source Element = RfidDevice01_ConfigData.CH01.Static.buf
–Destination Element = RfidDevice01_ConfigData.CH01.Static.buf
6. Select the relevant Ident device for which you want to assign parameters in the
"Communication" tab in the text box "Path".
7. When using the RF68xR reader:
Select the "Connected" and "Large Connection" check boxes, if applicable.
You can find more information on this subject in the section "Param instructions
(Page 20)".
8. Create a global variable for "MSG_WRITE".
9. Assign parameters for the variable as follows:
In the "Configuration" tab:
–Message Type = CIP generic
–Service Type = Custom
–Service Code = 41
–Class = 80
–Instance = 1
–Source Element = RfidDevice01_ConfigData.Static.buf
10.Select the relevant Ident device for which you want to assign parameters in the
"Communication" tab in the text box "Path".

Param instructions
Using the "Param_RF68xR" or "Param_RFID181EIP" instruction, the configuration data is
sent to the Ident system. In addition to this, the instruction resets the required start values of
the "HW_CONNECT" variables for the reader channels (read points). Note that this
instruction always needs to be executed first before other instructions can be executed. The
instruction must be executed each time the controller or module is restarted.
Instruction "Param_RF68xR"
Figure 4-2 Instruction "Param_RF68xR"
The input parameter "LARGE_CONNECTION" is supported only by ControlLogix controllers
as of version "5.0". You also require the Logix Designer as of version "21.00.00" and the
RSLogix 5000 software as of version "20.00.00".
If the parameter is set (value = "true" or "1"), the maximum frame length is increased from
240 bytes to 1035 bytes. If the parameter is enabled, you must also enable the options
"Connected" and "Large Connection" in the parameters "MSG_READ" and "MSG_WRITE" of
the message variables.
