how to get the id of an rfid tags using vb6

Postby cytronix101 » Fri Jul 15, 2011 3:10 pm

How can I a read the data of an rfid tag using vb6 because when I use the hyper terminal the data being send is a special character like cross symbol,heart,parallel lines,mask, and etc that being scanned by the rfid reader.

There should be no problem for VB6 to receive data if hyperterminal can recieve it. Please refer to ASCII table or the UM for the RFID reader to find out what are those special character stand for.

Cytron just come out a Tutorial about GUI, feel free to go through it.

If you receive a character, not have a number on hyperterminal, maybe you are wrong baudrate set.

Well I set the right baud rate which is 9600, my question is that i used the cytron rfid reader rs232 model i mean the black one and my question is this how many bits thus the rfid tags being used for this reader? because the weigand rfid reader has 26 bits?

You are confusing us here. You are using the RS232 type or Weigand? If you like to know the bytes send from RFID reader, the simplest way is to read the User's Manual/datasheet. Or since the RFID is connected to your computer, simply open HyperTerminal and check the data receive when a RFID tag is scanned, why you need to compare with Weigand type?

Verify the basic thing is working first. Since you say you can receive data through HyperTerminal, the hardware is working, so is the software part.
