Functions

This section describes the functions provided in an RFID Unit.

Function name	Description
RF Communications option function	This function switches the operation sequence during communications with an RF Tag.
Communications command function	This function reads or writes the memory for a RF Tag on the antenna communications area.
Write protection function	This function prevents the loss of data due to overwriting by specifying the areas in which it is not possible to write to an RF Tag.
RF Tag service life detection function	This function records the number of times data is rewritten to an RF Tag, and determines the maximum rewrite count.
RF Tag memory error detection function	This function detects an error during reading by performing CRC calculation for the memory of an RF Tag.
RF Tag memory error correction function	This function detects an error during reading by performing ECC calculation for the memory of an RF Tag, and corrects the error to an appropriate value.
Test command function	This function checks the margin in communications with an RF Tag, and measures the surrounding noise.
