Readers and host (terminal, PC)
are possible. The
Host Commands
and Scan Mode
are used for the data exchange between
Transponder and host, where as the
Configuration Commands
and the
Reader Control Com-
mands
serves for adapting the Reader parameters to the individual range of applications. The fol-
lowing chart shows which method of data transmission is supported by which interface:

5.1. Configuration Commands and Control Commands
This method of data transmission is used for Reader configuration and the diagnosis via the differ-
ent Hardware Interfaces of the Reader.
The Reader-configuration parameters will be stored in the Reader memory. To store the current
configuration during a power down of the Reader the Reader-Configuration has to be stored in the
EEPROM. After power up the Reader reads the configuration out of the EEPROM.
The Reader control is immediately processed and the response from the Reader contains status or
data information of the control command.
