1.9.3 Data matrix code on CompactFlash card
SIMOTION D CompactFlash cards have a machine-readable identification in the form of a
data matrix code (2D code).
Reader units that support the data matrix code in accordance with ECC 200 are suitable for
reading the code used here.
Analysis
Example of a data string from the reader unit:
1P6AU1400-2PA22-0AA0-Z+ST-WO30SST0B8365550000079001.
Table 1- 8 Machine-readable identification via 2D code
Characteristic Property
Order number
("1P" identifier to identify the products) 6AU1400-2PA22-0AA0-Z
Serial number
("S" identifier, item number) T-WOQB02934
HW serial number
("30S" identifier) ST0B8365550000079001
In addition to the "serial number", CompactFlash cards also have a "HW serial number".
If licenses are purchased for functions under license, a "license key" is generated from the
HW serial number of the CompactFlash card and the serial number of the purchased
licenses, which is only valid for the respective CompactFlash card.
The data required for the licensing can be read by reader unit via the bar codes on the
license certificates (Certificate of License "CoL") and the 2D code on the CompactFlash card
in order, for example, to automate the licensing process.
