Escort LRP2000 6.5.5 ABxF Command 08H: Tag Search

RFID Communications

LRP2000 Passive Reader/Writer 96

Example

This example waits until a tag is in range and then reads the eight-byte serial number. In this example, the

serial number is F2720300000104E0.

6.5.5 ABxF Command 08H: Tag Search

DESCRIPTION

Command 08H checks for an RFID tag in the controller field.

DISCUSSION

This command activates the controller to “look” for a tag in the RF field. If the controller finds a tag, it

returns a command echo to the host. If no tag is present, it returns an error message. Even though this

command is grouped with single tag commands, the presence of multiple tags within range of the antenna

will not cause errors. See Section 6.6 for information on the error messages.
