Antenna types not included in this list that have a gain greater than the maximum gain indicated for any type listed are strictly prohibited for use with this device. 830-0719-02 Model 5102-6060 HF 13.56 MHz RFID Antenna, 60x60mm with 35mm diameter center hole, MMCX connector www.rfidinc.com 13.56 MHz High Frequency Reader Operations Manual 3 14190 E. Jewell Avenue Suite 4 Aurora CO 80012 TEL: 303-366-1234 Section 1 General Information Revision 9/21 This manual provides information pertaining to the installation and operation of the Model HF-3020 13.56 MHz Reader. This series of Readers is available as a single piece solution Reader + internal Antenna in enclosure, or Reader with external Antenna as a two piece solution, or as board level PCBA components. See part numbers on page This Reader is unique in that it can operate with four different types RFID Tag chips, ISO 15693, ISO 14443A, ISO 14443B, and NXPs original Icode1 (the latter not being an ISO standard). Under these standards there are varying amounts of Tag memory, all of which include a non-alterable UID (unique identification) section that acts as a RO (read only) random identifier. This Reader and the RFID Tags can also be provided as a proprietary product for brand protection applications. This Reader is simple to use, plug & play, in that all commands and reports are represented in standard human readable ASCII. It is not necessary to convert commands to hex nor translate the outputs from hex as this work is done in our processor. The Reader operates as both a transmitter and receiver, providing a high frequency electromagnetic field at 13.56 MHz to energize and activate an electronic transponder (RFID Tag). Once the Tag is energized it modulates its data back to the Reader which in turn detects and demodulates this data for delivery to the serial or USB port. www.rfidinc.com 13.56 MHz High Frequency Reader Operations Manual 4 14190 E. Jewell Avenue Suite 4 Aurora CO 80012 TEL: 303-366-1234 Tag Memory Revision 9/21 Generally, HF RFID passive Tag chips, containing a EEPROM with encoded data, have no finite life for read only operations and a finite life of 100k writes. There exist a plethora of HF Tag chips available on the market, thus Tag memory is not discussed in detail herein. RFID, Inc. can provide a specific memory organization map dependent upon the chip and size of memory you intend to use. Data is represented in Hexadecimal and each byte will appear as two characters. The valid characters are 0 to 9 and A to F, so if a page has 8 bytes the reader will display it as 16 hexadecimal characters. If a block has 4 bytes the reader will display it as 8 hexadecimal characters. ISO15693 The Transponder ID is 64 bits long (8 bytes). Example <LF>E0078077CDCD153E<CR>
Most ISO15693 transponders are divided in blocks of 4 bytes (32 bits) represented by 8 hexadecimal characters. Example <LF>05 00000578<CR>
In some very rare cases an ISO15693 transponder will be divided in blocks of 64 bits. The reader automatically recognizes these types of transponder and adjusts its data size to it. If you are not familiar with the block size of the transponder in use, it is recommended to read a block from it to discover the block size ISO14443-B The Transponder ID is 32 bits long (4 bytes). Example <LF>008B78B5<CR>
Transponders are divided in pages of 8 bytes (64 bits) represented by 16 hexadecimal characters, when reading a page the reader first sends the two digit page number followed by a space and the 16 characters of data. Example <LF>05 0000000000000056<CR>
Here are some examples of memory sizes available. With new chips being added to the market from time to time, this list may not be up to date.

Jewell Avenue Suite 4 Aurora CO 80012 TEL: 303-366-1234 13.56 MHz High Frequency Reader Operations Manual 9 Section 2 - Quick Start Installation Guide Reading Mode Revision 9/21 This Reader has three reading modes, commands for selecting these modes are detailed in section 3:
Single Tag Report Mode - meaning a Tags base memory (UID) will be read and reported once. The Reader is defaulted to the Single Read Mode although any change will be held in non-volatile memory. Duplicate Tag Report Mode - meaning a Tags base memory will be continually read and reported. Polling Tag Report Mode - whereby a Tag will only be reported if the Reader is queried and an RFID Tag is present to the Reader. Note that ISO 14443 type Tags are meant only to be polled, however in the Single and Duplicate read modes our Reader operates in a mode that polls continuously in order to present data without you the user having to poll the Reader although the normal Polling mode is fully functional. This is why you will see an e message at the end of either reading routine. Reading Tags Simply power the RS232 Reader or plug in the USB port to your host and an LED will illuminate. Solid illumination indicates power is applied and the Reader is ready for operation. If the Reader is in the correct reading mode, presenting a Tag at this point will result in the LED blinking off and back to solid indicating a successful read has been achieved. Preparing to interface the Smart Antenna to your PC There two options available to you for achieving Tag data to your PC screen, one to include log or text files. RFID, Inc. is also happy to provide the VB code, free of charge, we have written for our demo program. If you have already interfaced the Reader to a terminal program or your own software, upon powering the Reader you will see a power up message from the serial Reader. The USB version has no power up message. Generic Terminal Program Any common terminal emulation program can be used, for example HyperTerminal, ProComm, Teraterm, Putty, etc. RFID, Inc.s free of charge Terminal Program - RFID, Inc. provides a free software demo program called RFID UHF Term or RFID Demo Terminal Programmable downloadable here https://www.rfidinc.com/resource-center/. It may appear in your Programs menu as RFIDIncUHFTerm. It is important to follow these steps in order for the program to scan and identify the ports available on your computer.
(1) Plug the RS232 9 pin connector into your computer (use an RS232 to USB converter if no 9 pin connector is available on your computer) or use the direct USB to USB connection.
(2) Power the Reader on (not necessary for USB). www.rfidinc.com 14190 E. Jewell Avenue Suite 4 Aurora CO 80012 TEL: 303-366-1234 13.56 MHz High Frequency Reader Operations Manual 10 Revision 9/21
(3) Execute the RFIDIncUHFTerm Program. Select Scan Ports found upper right. This allows the program to scan which port address is connected to the Reader. In the upper left, under Ports use the pull down menu to choose the port discovered.
(4) Set the baud rate and remaining communication settings, default is 115200 baud, 8 data bits, None Parity, 1 stop bit and None Flow Control (115200, 8, N, 1, N). You can also view which port is connected by going to your Desktop, right click on My Computer, choose Properties, Hardware and Device Manager, then open the Ports directory tree.
(5) Select Connect. Presenting a Tag to the Antenna should now bring that Tag data onto the main screen and the lower body of the screen as well. Remove Old Data - This program also offers the ability to Remove Old Data by checking this box under Tag Read Settings, a process of deleting Tag reads from the screen set to the timeouts you choose in the pull down menu. For example if you choose 5,10,15 Timeout, Tag data will begin highlighted in green for the first 5 seconds, then become highlighted in yellow at 5 seconds time, then turn to red at 10 seconds time, and finally be deleted at 15 seconds time. Maximum Tags An option rarely used for HF Tags. This program also offers the ability to time how long it takes to read the amount of Tags you wish to test by choosing the number of Tags under the Max Tags setting. You will see the data field to the right increment as the Reader counts how many unique Tags have been read. If you choose 100 as your Max Tags setting, once the Reader has read 100 unique Tags a pop up box will appear advising you the amount of time this procedure took. Save This box will prompt you to save Tag data to a text file with time and date stamp. The main screen area (white) is solely used for display of Tag data. The lower screen area (black) will display Tag data and also allow you to enter commands to the Reader. Note - All commands must be issued in CAPS, preceded by an open square bracket and ended with a closed square bracket
[B] for example. There is more in depth information on how to read and write specific portions of Tag memory under the Commands section of this product manual. Single Report Tag Read Mode Place your cursor in the lower screen area and type [S]. This will initiate the Single Report Tag Read Mode and the Reader will respond with OK. Duplicate Report Tag Read Mode - Place your cursor in the lower screen area and type [D]. This will initiate the Duplicate Report Tag Read Mode and the Reader will respond with OK. www.rfidinc.com 14190 E. Jewell Avenue Suite 4 Aurora CO 80012 TEL: 303-366-1234 13.56 MHz High Frequency Reader Operations Manual 11 Revision 9/21 Section 3 - Operating the Reader This section explains operational commands and input received back from the Reader, commands, operating modes, and responses. Note:
All commands are issued in ASCII CAPITAL letters, and they are preceded by an open square bracket and ended with a closed square bracket. Some symbols and all numbers are permitted. No spaces are permitted. Commands are held in non-volatile memory, meaning that if power is taken away from the Smart Antenna the last command or settings will be retained when re-powered. General Commands & Responses (ISO protocol independent) Tag Data Delivery Tag data will be sent to the serial port in the following format.

1 | Modular Approval Letter | Cover Letter(s) | 268.37 KiB | May 20 2022 |
Request for Modular/Limited Modular Approval Date: May 20, 2022 Subject: Manufacturers Declaration for - Modular Approval Confidentiality Request for: YVURFIDUHF
- Limited Modular Approval - Limited Split Modular Approval
- Split Modular Approval 8 Basic Requirements FCC Part 15.212(a)(1) For Items Marked NO(*), the Limited Module Description Must be Filled Out on the Following Pages Modular Approval Requirement 1. The modular transmitter must have its own RF shielding. This is intended to ensure that the module does not have to rely upon the shielding provided by the device into which it is installed in order for all modular transmitter emissions to comply with FCC limits. It is also intended to prevent coupling between the RF circuitry of the module and any wires or circuits in the device into which the module is installed. Such coupling may result in non-compliant operation. The physical crystal and tuning capacitors may be located external to the shielded radio elements. 15.212(a)(1)(i) Details: The module will be supplied only to the manufacturer, whom will be responsible for compliance of the host device
- YES - NO(*) Requirement Met 2. The modular transmitter must have buffered modulation/data inputs (if such inputs are provided) to ensure that the module will comply with FCC requirements under conditions of excessive data rates or over-modulation. 15.212(a)(1)(ii) Details: The module has buffered data inputs
- YES - NO(*) 3. The modular transmitter must have its own power supply regulation on the module. This is intended to ensure that the module will comply with FCC requirements regardless of the design of the power supplying circuitry in the device into which the module is installed. 15.212(a)(1)(iii)
- YES - NO(*) Details: The module has regulated power inputs 4. The modular transmitter must comply with the antenna and transmission system requirements of 15.203, 15.204(b), 15.204(c), 15.212(a), and 2.929(b). The antenna must either be permanently attached or employ a unique antenna coupler (at all connections between the module and the antenna, including the cable). The professional installation provision of 15.203 is not applicable to modules but can apply to limited modular approvals under paragraph 15.212(b). 15.212(a)(1)(iv)
- YES - NO(*) Details: The module will be restricted for use only in host devices where the antenna and connector are not accessible to the user. 5. The modular transmitter must be tested in a stand-alone configuration, i.e., the module must not be inside another device during testing. This is intended to demonstrate that the module is capable of complying with Part 15 emission limits regardless of the device into which it is eventually installed. Unless the transmitter module will be battery powered, it must comply with the AC line conducted requirements found in Section 15.207. AC or DC power lines and data input/output lines connected to the module must not contain ferrites, unless they will be marketed with the module (see Section 15.27(a)). The length of these lines shall be length typical of actual use or, if that length is unknown, at least 10 centimeters to insure that there is no coupling between the case of the module and supporting equipment. Any accessories, peripherals, or support equipment connected to the module during testing shall be unmodified or commercially available (see Section 15.31(i)). 15.212(a)(1)(v)
- YES - NO(*) Details: The EUT was tested stand-alone with the included antenna. 053019-02a Modular Approval Requirement 6. The modular transmitter must be labeled with its own FCC ID number, or use an electron display Requirement Met
(see KDB Publication 784748). If using a permanently affixed label with its own FCC ID number, if the FCC ID is not visible when the module is installed inside another device, then the outside of the device into which the module is installed must also display a label referring to the enclosed module. This exterior label can use wording such as the following: Contains Transmitter Module FCC ID: XYZMODEL1 or Contains FCC ID: XYZMODEL1. Any similar wording that expresses the same meaning may be used. The Grantee may either provide such a label, an example of which must be included in the application for equipment authorization, or, must provide adequate instructions along with the module which explain this requirement. In the latter case, a copy of these instructions must be included in the application for equipment authorization. If the modular transmitter uses an electronic display of the FCC identification number, the information must be readily accessible and visible on the modular transmitter or on the device in which it is installed. If the module is installed inside another device, then the outside of the device into which the module is installed must display a label referring to the enclosed module. This exterior label can use wording such as the following: Contains FCC certified transmitter module(s). Any similar wording that expresses the same meaning may be used. The user manual must include instructions on how to access the electronic display. A copy of these instructions must be included in the application for equipment authorization. 15.212(a)(1)(vi) Details: The module will be labelled on the PCB
- YES - NO(*) 7. The modular transmitter must comply with all specific rule or operating requirements applicable to the transmitter, including all the conditions provided in the integration instructions by the grantee. A copy of these instructions must be included in the application for equipment authorization. For example, there are very strict operational and timing requirements that must be met before a transmitter is authorized for operation under Section 15.231. For instance, data transmission is prohibited, except for operation under Section 15.231(e), in which case there are separate field strength level and timing requirements. Compliance with these requirements must be assured. 15.212(a)(1)(vii) Details: The EUT is compliant with all applicable FCC rules. Detail instructions for maintaining compliance are given in the Users Manual.
- YES - NO(*) 8. The modular transmitter must comply with any applicable RF exposure requirements. For example, FCC Rules in Sections 2.1091, 2.1093 and specific Sections of Part 15, including 15.319(i), 15.407(f), 15.253(f) and 15.255(g), require that Unlicensed PCS, UNII and millimeter wave devices perform routine environmental evaluation for RF Exposure to demonstrate compliance. In addition, spread spectrum transmitters operating under Section 15.247 are required to address RF Exposure compliance in accordance with Section 15.247(b)(4). Modular transmitters approved under other Sections of Part 15, when necessary, may also need to address certain RF Exposure concerns, typically by providing specific installation and operating instructions for users, installers and other interested parties to ensure compliance. 15.212(a)(1)(viii) Details: The EUT is compliant with all applicable RF exposure requirements.
- YES - NO(*) 053019-02a Limited Module Description When Applicable
