RFID Option

92-2450-01 Rev.F

This guide presents a systematic overview of important media requirements, setup options, and modes of

use for Datamax-O’Neil M-Class RFID-equipped printers.

CAUTION

• This device complies with FCC Radio Frequency exposure limits for an uncontrolled

environment. This equipment should be installed and operated with a minimum

distance of 20cm between the radiator and your body. If 20cm distance cannot be

maintained, end users are to be 20cm from printer extremity.

• Any changes or modifications to this RFID module not expressly approved by

Datamax-O’Neil Corporation will void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.

• Operation is subject to the following conditions: (1) this device may not cause

interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference, including interference

that may cause undesired operation of this device.



Note: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A digital

device, pursuant to part15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide

reasonable protection against harmful interference when the equipment is operated in a

commercial environment. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency

energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instruction manual, may cause

harmful interference to radio communications. Operation of this equipment in a residential

area is likely to cause harmful interference in which case the user will be required to correct

the interference at their own expense.

Start with the Right Media

Use RFID media that meets the specifications required by the encoder type:

C Chip Location Tolerance ± 0.05 ± 1.3

D Label Pitch (minimum) 1.75 44.4

E Chip Inlay Location 1.1 27.9

[1] See the Operator’s Manual for additional standard media requirements.

[2] The HF RFID Chip Inlay Location can be left, right, or center justified.

[3] Definitions referenced by looking down onto the labeling side of the media, and from the leading edge of the label (or

tag) as it moves forward through the printer.



Note: If you have questions selection, contact a Media Representative at (407) 523-5650.

Set the Printer

RFID default settings (listed below by encoder [MODE] type) can be modified via the Control Panel:

HF RFID Default Settings (MODE = HF):

RFID POSITION = 1.1

TAG TYPE = ISO 15693

RETRY ATTEMPTS = 3

UHF RFID Default Settings (MODE = UHF):

RFID POSITION = 1.1

TAG TYPE = GEN 2

TAG DATA SIZE = 96-BIT

RETRY ATTEMPTS = 3

Change an RFID default by selecting, modifying, and saving the desired setting(s):



Notes: (1) If NOT INSTALLED is displayed after selecting RFID, the wrong device may be enabled;

go to the MODE setting and ensure that the correct RFID device has been selected.

(2) To restore factory defaults, select SET DEFAULTS in the RFID options menu.

Encoded RFID data can also be exported to a host device by enabling OPTION FEEDBACK. This data is

contained in the format <A;B;C;D;E;F>[CR] where:

A - Is the device type: R = RFID; and, S = Linear Scanner.

B - Is the resulting status: C = label complete; F = faulted (failed) label; and, U = unknown.

C - Is the number of expected reads for bar codes or tags, given in two characters.

D - Is the number of good reads for bar codes or tags, given in two characters.

E - Is the printer’s internal Job and Sub Job Identifier, given in four characters each.

F - Is the data that was read, delimited with semicolons (;) on multiple reads.

Proceed as follows to capture RFID data:

Notes: (1) For menu system details, see the Operator’s Manual.

(2) Bidirectional communications must also be enabled, and an appropriate cable attached.

Calibrate the Media

RFID Calibration automatically establishes the critical tag to transducer distance and power setting for the

media. Before calibrating, ensure that the following prerequisites have been met:

• RFID media is installed;

• The Media Sensor is adjusted and calibrated for the installed media; and,

• The RFID Option is enabled.



Note: Reference the Operator’s Manual for details..

Calibrate the media as follows:

1) With the printer at READY simultaneously press FEED and TEST.

2) Answer the displayed PERFORM CALIBRATION? prompt by pressing ENTER to accept (or ESC to

abort). If accepted, CALIBRATING RFID will be displayed as media is advanced to establish the

tag location and power requirement. (Wait briefly for both processes to complete.)

3) When complete, a brief outcome message may appear as the database settings are updated and

the media is retracted to the top of form position.

Begin Use (RFID Programming Modes)

The printer features two different operational modes for tag programming:

• Direct Mode allows user (Host) control of RFID reading and writing, where each tag is individually

processed with status and data responses.

• Label Formatting Mode uses the printer configuration to process all RFID read, write, and

exceptions as determined by a label format, and supports automatic increment and decrement

commands for numeric, alphanumeric, or hexadecimal.



Notes: (1) Both modes auto-position to the tag location.

(2) See the Class Series 2 Programmer's Manual for detailed programming information.
