InitTagMemory

InitTagMemory(TagID : string, memorBank : uint, startAddress : uint,

dataLength : uint, password : string, initData : byte) : void

Parameters

● TagID

The ID of a tag to be initialized, given as a hexadecimal encoded string (i.e., each byte is

represented by a two-letter hexadecimal number).

● memoryBank

Valid values for the air protocol ‘RF300’”are:

0 – Memory

Valid values for the air protocol ‘ISO15693’ are:

0 – Memory

● startAddress

The base address within the memory bank to which data are to be written.

Base addresses are specified in bytes.

● dataLength

The length in bytes of the data to be written.

● Password

An access password if needed. If none needed use an empty string. A password is a

hexadecimal encoded string of up to eight characters.

● initData

The data to be initialized.

Return value(s)

None.

Exceptions

RfReaderApiException

Error while communicating with the reader service.

Check the Error member for more information.

Note

A valid tag ID must be specified for a tag currently within the field before you can initialize it,

or if no tag ID is specified, the first tag within the field will be initialized.
Initializes all writeable tag data with the given data.

Limitations

RF680M and RF610M device does not support initializing of tags at all

Version information

Supported in RFID Reader Interface: since V1.2
