4.0 PERMANENT READER SERIAL NUMBER
Each DLP-RFID-UHF1B contains a unique, 32-bit, hard-coded serial number that cannot be
altered by any means. The serial number can be read via the USB interface and used to
identify the reader via the host software.
5.0 APPLICATION DEVELOPMENT
A software library is available for free download upon purchase of the DLP-RFID-UHF1B that
demonstrates reading the serial number (UID) from transponder tags, writing to the tags,
accessing the reader’s permanent serial number and controlling the integrated pass/fail beeper.
Additionally, a low-power Mode Enable command is provided to reduce current consumption to
approximately 45mA when communication with a tag is not required.
