Writing Tags
Single Tag Write from Screen
Select the data mode (binary, decimal, hexadecimal, or ASCII) using the drop-
down menu. Select the cell to be edited. The cell text will be highlighted,
indicating that it is selected. Enter in the new data using the keypad. Specify the
start byte and the length of data you want to write. Enter a length of “0” to write
the entire contents of the screen.
The data will be written to the tag specified in the “Tag UID” box. To write the
data to any tag, enter “0” in the “Tag UID” box. With the Continuous check box
deselected, push the Write button.
A confirmation dialogue will pop up. Selecting Cancel or the X button will
cancel the write operation. Select the radio button next to Screen and push OK
to write to the tag from the screen.

Tag reads will be saved to the \SystemCF\RFID ICODE\Data folder.

Start and Length values must be in increments of 4 or 8 bytes, depending
on block size.

To return the Tag UID to that of the previously read tag, completely delete
the contents of the Tag UID box. The previous Tag UID will automatically
repopulate.
