5.7.2 Command 4 (04 Hex): Tag Fill
DESCRIPTION
Fill an RFID tag with a one byte value over multiple contiguous
addresses.
DISCUSSION
This command is commonly used to clear an RFID tag's memory. It
writes a one byte value repetitively across a specified range of tag
addresses.
The fill function requires one data value byte, a starting address, and a
fill length. It will then proceed to fill the tag with the data value byte,
starting at the specified start address for the specified number of
consecutive bytes.
The timeout value is given in 1 msec increments and can have a value
of 1EH to FFFEH (65,534 ms). When the timeout is set to 0, the
LRP76 will return a syntax error.
