OUPIEX MOD RFID125 BOX User Manual Petree Geen All boards produced by Olimex are ROHS compliant Rev B May 2011 Copyright c 2011 OLIMEX Ltd All rights reserved Page 1 INTRODUCTION FEATURES MOD RFID125 BOX is an RFID station able to read Manchester encoded 64 bit EM4102 tags with 64 periods of carrier frequency per data bit All the complexity of RFID tag detection verification and decoding are handled by MOD RFID125 BOX After it strips the header and the checksums user is given the 40 bit ID of the transponder tag MOD RFID125 BOX supports three distinctive modes of operation easily switched by a single button press It can emulate USB HID keyboard and input the read TAG ID directly to any Windows application including the venerable Notepad Or it can emulate USB CDC serial port for easy access from custom user applications using standard code for COM port access The third option allows access from any standard 5V UART allowing easy integration with existing microcontroller applications Supports Manchester encoded 64 bit EM4102 RFID tags with 64 periods of carrier frequency per data bit Base RFID frequency 125kHz USB port connection to PC Standard 5V UART 9600 8N1 connection to user microcontroller boards Three modes of operation easily changed by pressing the button USB HID keyboard emulation mode USB CDC serial port emulation mode UART connection mode UEXT connector S
5. TCHING OPERATING MODES The current mode of operation can be selected by pressing and holding the button of the device After two seconds the LEDs will start to blink and will show the code for the next selected mode When button is released the device will reboot and enter the selected mode Selected mode is remembered between power downs The assigned codes are LED Status Description Red Green Previous State State After Button Is Released blinks off UART USB HID off blinks USB HID USB CDC blinks blinks USB CDC UART COMMAND LINE INTERFACE USB CDC and UART modes The command line interface available in USB CDC and UART modes allows device configuration and reading of successfully decoded TAG IDs Just open the serial port assigned to MOD RFID125 BOX using HyperTerminal or similar terminal program and start typing commands For the impatient type and press enter to see a short help for the supported commands Any typed character will be echoed back enter will force the module to process the input command line 1 Command This command prints a short help message describing the available commands and their arguments 2 Command i This command prints a short information about firmware version hardware board revision and currently selected configuration 3 Command b This command forces the device to enter boot loader mode After executing this command the device will disconnect it
