Advanced Tag Operations
Level 2 API 47
Gen2.LockAction(int mask, int action)
to create a Gen2.LockAction object with the specified mask and action.
The following symbolic constants are provided for convenience in handling Gen2 lock
mask and action bitmasks. Perform a binary OR on these to pass multiple lock/unlock
settings.
 Gen2.LockBits.ACCESS
 Gen2.LockBits.ACCESS_PERM
 Gen2.LockBits.KILL
 Gen2.LockBits.KILL_PERM
 Gen2.LockBits.EPC
 Gen2.LockBits.EPC_PERM
 Gen2.LockBits.TID
 Gen2.LockBits.TID_PERM
 Gen2.LockBits.USER
 Gen2.LockBits.USER_PERM
Gen2.Kill
Sends a kill command to a tag to permanently disable the tag. The tag’s Reserved
memory Kill Password must be non-zero for the kill to succeed.
Gen2 Optional TagOps
The following tag operations are optional features of the Gen2 tag specification and are
supported by many but not all Gen2 tags. These operations are supported by readers of
type
SerialReader and the M6.
Gen2.BlockWrite
On tags which support this command, it provides faster writing of data to a tag by writing
more than one word at a time over the air, compared to
Gen2.WriteData which sends data
to write over the air to the tag word by word.
Calls to BlockWrite can only specify data of the maximum length which the tag supports in
its BlockWrite implementation. For example, Impinj Monza tags only support 2-word
