Low Cost RFID Reader Writer module.

This low cost RFID reader writer module is an upgrade of our RFIDREAD-4100
RFID reader. Optimized for 125Khz transponders this unit is able to read EM4100,
FDXB  animal tags, and read and write, T55xx series and EM4205 Tags
Its features are: 
  • Reads EM4100 compatible transponders. (64bit Manchester Encoding).
    Reads and Writes T5557 transponders (32cyc/bit  Manchester Encoding).
    Read and Write FDX-B animal identification protocol as described in
    ISO11784/11785 
    Reads and Writes EM4205 / EM4305 transponders (32cyc/bit Biphase Encoding).
  • Read Distance: 6cm for cards, and 4cm for keytags. (*1)
  • Small Unit size:  66mm x 34mm.
  • On board duel color LED (Red/Green).
  • On board buzzer.
  • Integrated RFID coil antenna.
  • TTL Uart Output.
(*1) Reading distance may increase or decrease depending on transponder variations, and power supply condition.

The command set for this RFID Reader Writer module include the following:
  • Set LED color and function.
  • Set Buzzer Function.
  • Read Block.
  • Read Password Protected Block.
  • Write Block.
  • Write Password Protected Block.
  • Enable/Disable password Protection.
  • Emulate EM4100 tag with T5557 tag.
  • Read  FDX-B animal identification transponders.
  • Write FDX-B animal identification tags using T5557, EM4205.
The ability of the T5557and EM4205 transponders to write data allows for greater
flexibility in RFID applications. The ability to create your own ID codes, store data, and
duplicate RFID tags is an essential feature in many systems as used in
Access
Control, Inventory Tracking, and other numerous applications where non contact
identification of items is required.
The Emulate EM4100 tag function of the RFIDREAD-RW solves the problem of
not being able to duplicate EM4100 tags or write EM4100 RFID tags with user
defined data.
Animal identification is a growing industry and our FDX-B read and write
capabilities allow users to identify and create animal tags for their applications.

We carry a stock of T5557 RFID transponders suitable for this unit. You can buy
T55xx transponders direct from
our on line shopfront.

Our Free RFID reader application programs are available for download and allow
users to quickly read and write RFID transponders, as well as transfer scanned
tag codes to other user applications such as EXCEL, Notepad, or any other
application running on a PC that allows keyboard entries to be made.
