8.107 ^RB DEFINE EPC DATE STRUCTURE
Format: ^RBn,p0,p1,p2,…,p15
n = Total bit size (in bits)
1 to n
When omitted: 96
p0…p15 = Partition size (in bits)
1 to 64
When omitted: 1
*1 This command is used for format setting to generate total bit size in bits by converting data
written in the EPC area of the RFID tag into hexadecimal data for each partition specifying the
decimal-to-hexadecimal conversion format and coupling the converted data of each partition.
*2 The total bit size represents the total amount of converted data in bits. This is converted to a
word-based value to be written into a tag. For odd bits insufficient to comprise a word, zero
padding is applied.
*3 The partition size represents the maximum number of bits converted to a hexadecimal value.
*4 The relationship between the total bit size and the partition size is shown below.
n = p0+p1+
･･･
+p15
E.g. RB96,32,32,32, data: ^RFW,E^FD100.101.102^FS
The tag data to be written is “000000640000006500000066” (12 bytes).
*5 If the partition size (p0…p15) is not specified, the total bit size is stored in the first field (p0).
However, If the total bit size exceeds 64, the remaining size is placed in the second field (p1).
E.g. When sent with ^RB96, this is deemed to be sent as ^RB96,64,32.
