5. Configuration Parameters (CFG)
The configuration memory of the Reader
is organized in configuration blocks of 16 byte each. These are divided into 14
byte configuration parameters and a 2 byte CRC16 checksum. Each of these configuration blocks takes a number (CFG
0...CFG n).
Structure of a configuration blocks in Reader configuration memory and Reader EEPROM (CFG):

CRC16
The parameters are stored in two different configuration memory locations:
•
Reader
RAM
•
Backup EEPROM (used for storing parameter over power down)
Multiple configuration memory locations can be addressed by the value of the parameter CFG-ADR used in chapter 6.
Protocols for Reader Configuration
CFG-ADR:
CFGn:
memory-address of the required configuration block
LOC:
specifies the location of the configuration block (RAM / EEPROM)
MODE:
specifies one or all configuration blocks

The EEPROM configuration blocks are protected by a 16 bit CRC-checksum. The examination of
these checksums is executed after each reset of the Reader. If an checksum is found, the Reader
goes into an error status "EE-Init-Mode" and sets the configuration block which is faulty to the de-
fault-values.
While the EE-Init-Mode is active, the LED blinks alternately red and green and the Reader answers
external commands with the status "0x10 EEPROM Failure". The "EE-Init-Mode" can be exited
now by a new reset (cold start or
).
If after this the checksums
of all data records are correct, the Reader shifts to the configured operation mode.
Notes:
•
Malfunctions may occur if parameters are configured without their described range or if
unspecified parameters have been changed!
