Read tab is displayed. The read tab is divided into two areas – Configuration Setup and Read Timings.
The following parameters can be configured in the Configuration Setup area:
Bitrate:
Rf/32, Rf/40 or Rf/64
Coding:
Manchester or Bi-phase
ID-Code Length:

For further details, refer to the e5530 datasheet.
The timing parameters for decoding can be set in the Read Timing area. Under normal operating condi-
tions, the default values can be used.
To read the transponder, click the Read button. A message box is displayed showing either the decoded
transponder code (in hex) or an error report. Decoding is caried by transferring the Configuration Setup
and Read Timing settings to the microncontroller on the RFID application kit. The incoming data stream
is decoded to binary values using real-time analysis and sent to the PC.
The Default button restored the default settings. The Cancel button is used to exit the application.
