7.14.1 Downloading with an SD card
This is the easiest method to download the data to a
PC.
- switch ON the unit
- insert the SD card on the respective slot until it
clicks in. (FAT16 format SD card)
- the display shows COPY while the records are
being copied.
- when the copy finishes, a file named
AAE_nnnn.AAE is created (nnnn is an order
number) on your SD card. Thus you can download
this file with “RFID Note” (PC application) for your
further use.
7.14.2 Downloading through RS232
The HH500 can be connected to any device with a RS232 port. The contents of the
memory can then be downloaded using this port.
The supplied PC application “RFID Note” contains this feature and creates a
comma separated value (CSV) file for use with other applications.
If you want to integrate the download feature in your own application, please
contact your Advanced ID distributor. (see Support software
)
7.14.3 Other download possibilities
The flexible architecture of the HH500 enables upgrade to other connection
possibilities. Advanced ID has the possibility to upgrade your unit for Ethernet,
Wireless LAN or other ISN band RF connection. Please contact Advanced ID for
the options available.
8. Configuration
The handheld reader HH500 can be configured to fit particular applications. The
configuration can be done with the supplied PC application “RFID Note”. (see
Support software)
8.1 Owner mode
The HH500 can be configured to always ask for an owner entry prior to reading or
not. Also, owner IDs can be tags or ASCII strings (names). The possible settings
are:
Owner mode Operation
Owner ASCII fixed The owner ID is a NAME and is never asked. The previous
owner ID is automatically stored at the start of each
reading session (unit is wake-up).
The Owner’s name can be entered or changed by pressing
the OWNER key.
Owner tag fixed The owner ID is a TAG and is never asked. The previous
owner ID is automatically stored at the start of each
reading session (unit is wake-up).
The user can scan the Owner’s TAG by pressing the
OWNER key.
Owner ASCII The owner ID is a NAME and must be entered at the start
of every reading session.
Owner TAG The owner ID is a TAG and must be scanned at the start of
every reading session.
8.2 Data length and start address
The HH500 can store user data into tags as explained before. The number of bytes
to be stored and the internal tag address where that data is stored can be set.
Data is written in blocks of 8 bytes to the tag. Therefore the data length must be
always a multiple of 8. The PC application enables this setting accordingly.
The number of bytes is limited to 32. For application demanding more bytes,
please contact your Advanced ID distributor.
The tag address where data will start to be written depends on the tag’s internal
chip. Please refer to the chip manufacturer’s datasheet for details.
As a hint, ISO 16000-6B tags internal user memory start at address 0x12 (18) and
EPC Class 1 Gen 2 start at 0x00 (0).
Please contact your Advanced ID distributor for more details. (see Support
software)
