TravisPedley Posted February 16, 2016 Report Posted February 16, 2016 It should send result data after you trigger it. At least thats how the rest of the DM series works over profinet. 1 Quote
Labidi.N Posted February 16, 2016 Author Report Posted February 16, 2016 so there is no need of programming the RS-232 module on the PLC Quote
TravisPedley Posted February 19, 2016 Report Posted February 19, 2016 you'll still have to write code to catch the serial string from the DM60. you just shouldnt have to do anything on the barcode side to make it send. check out this link, should get you started. https://www.dmcinfo.com/latest-thinking/blog/id/8297/siemens-s7-1200-serial-communication Quote
