UID/SNR
(ISO Mode only)*
UID/SNR is added at the top of read data when UID/SNR addition setting is
enabled.
* UID/SNR is not added in I.CODE1 mode regardless of the UID/SNR addition setting status.
I.CODE1 SYSTEM AREA
From Page FD to Page FF is a system area for write-protect and QUIET/EAS settings. Depending on the
content of write data, a Tag may become write-protected or inaccessible, so be sure to understand these
pages fully before use.It is strongly recommended that you use a system command to write in these pages
(refer to 5-5) rather than using the write command.
