1. Data Transmission between OBID®i-scan ID ISC.MR/PR/PRH100 and Host
For different ways of data transmission between OBID®i-scan Readers and host (terminal, PC) are
possible. The ISO15693Host Commands and the Scan Mode are used for the data exchange be-
tween Transponder and host, whereas the Configuration Commands and the Control serves for
adapting the Reader parameters to the individual range of applications. The following chart shows
which method of data transmission is supported by which interface:
asynchronous interface
(RS232 / RS485)
Configuration Commands √
Control Commands √
ISO15693Host Commands √
Scan-Mode √
1.1. Configuration Commands and Control Commands
This method of data transmission is used for Reader configuration and the diagnosis via the asyn-
chronous interface or USB.
The Reader-configuration parameters will be stored in the Reader memory. To store the current con-
figuration during a power down of the Reader, the Reader-Configuration must 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 contain status or
data information of the control command.

1.2. ISO15693 Host Commands
The ISO Host Commands provides the exchange of data between a host and Transponders via the
Reader as long as the Transponder remains in the detection range of the Reader.
Note:
During the writing of data on a Transponder, it must be ensured that the Transponder is lo-
cated within the detection range of the Reader during the entire process. If the Transponder is
removed from the detection range of the Reader during a writing process, this will cause a loss
of data.
The Reader distinguishes between three different modes:
Addressed mode:
Before reading or writing data in addressed mode, the UID of the Transponder must be
known. This is executed by sending the protocol “6.1.1. [0x01] Inventory If a Transponder is
located within the detection range of the Reader at that time, it answers with its UID. For all
following read- / write orders the Transponder must be addressed with its correct UID.
The following chart will show the necessary steps for the communication with a Transponder
in addressed mode:
Host (Terminal / PC / ....) Reader

Yes No
←status /

ponders / UID

FEIG ELECTRONIC GmbH Page 11 of 118 H01000-5e-ID-B.doc
Non-addressed mode:
In non-addressed mode, it is not necessary to know the UID of the Transponder. This mode is
useful, if only one Transponder is located within the range of the Reader.
The following chart will show the necessary steps for the communication with a Transponder
in non-addressed mode:
Host (Terminal / PC / ....) Reader

FEIG ELECTRONIC GmbH Page 12 of 118 H01000-5e-ID-B.doc
Selected:
In this mode the Reader communicates only with the one, selected Transponder.
Before reading or writing data in selected mode, the UID of the Transponder must be known.
This is executed by sending at first the protocol “6.1.1. [0x01] Inventory“. In a second step the
Transponder must be selected with the select command (see: 6.1.6. [0x25] Select) which
must include its UID.
The following chart will show the necessary steps for the communication with a Transponder
in selected mode:

1.3. Scan-Mode
In this operation-mode the Reader autonomously sends out data to the host as soon as a Trans-
ponder is within the detection range and valid data could be read.
In Scan Mode the contents of the message block (UID, data block) can be adapted to each user-
application. Scan mode is available via the asynchronous Interface and the USB Interface.
If an USB-Reader is used in scan mode, the reader sends its data automatically over the HID interface
of the operating system. In this case, you cannot catch the data with the FEUSB.DLL or any other li-
braries. The reader works like a keyboard. (see also: 3.7. CFG6: Scan-Mode1).
The Reader starts the output of the protocol block as soon as all required data have been read cor-
rectly from the Transponder. If the number of transmitted user data is too large, only the maximal
number of transmitted data will be send plus the end character.
Scan-Mode via asynchronous interface:
The data will be sent out depending on their configuration according to the following scheme,
the sequence of which cannot be changed.
Depending to the configuration and the number of Transponders in the detection range of the
Reader the transmitted protocols have a different format.
Example 1:
One Transponder in detection range and UID and data blockshould be read:
PRUIDSCdataEC PRUID
Example 2:
3 Transponder in detection range only UID should be read:
PR UID1 EC UID2 EC UID3 EC
Example 3:
3 Transponder in detection range only data blockshould be read:
PR data1 EC data2 EC data3 EC
Example 4:
2 Transponder in detection range UID and data blockshould be read:
PR UID1 SC data1 EC UID2 SC data2 EC
PR: Com-Prefix (optional) ts: SCAN-LOCK-TIME
UID: Serial-Number. (fix) tr: time to the next new Transponder reading
data: data blocks (free programmable)
SC Separation character (optional)
EC End character (optional)

OBID i-scan®System-Manual ID ISC.MR/PR/PRH100/101-A
FEIG ELECTRONIC GmbH Page 14 of 118 H01000-5e-ID-B.doc
Scan-Mode via USB-Interface (HID-Mode):
If an USB-Reader is set to Scan-Mode the reader works like a keyboard. The data will be transferred
as USB Key Code or as hex-values.
The user defined Sep- and End- Character will be transfered as USB Key Code.
If the number of transmitted user data is too large, only the maximal number of transmitted data will be
send plus the end character. (see: 3.7. CFG6: Scan-Mode1)
Note:
•If configuration protocols shall be sent to the Reader while the Scan-Mode is active, no
Transponder should be within the detection range of the Reader during this time.
•Only read operations are available with the Scan-Mode.

2. Asynchronous Interface
2.1. Data Format and Protocol Frames
The Reader ID ISC.MR100-A can be configured by an asynchronous interface and data may be writ-
ten on Transponders or read from Transponders. The communication between Reader and connected
host (terminal, PC, etc.) is executed by means of fixed protocols. The used protocol is intended for
data bus use and is equipped with a bus address.
During data transfer via the asynchronous interface the Reader supplies the required data or a status
byte. The reply contain the transmitted control byte.
There is no reply from the Reader if there is a protocol frame failure.
Protocol frame:
Host →Reader
1 2 3 4...n-2 n-1 n
LENGTH = n COM-ADR CONTROL-
BYTE PROTOCOL- DATA MSB-CRC16 LSB CRC16
Host ←Reader

LENGTH n:
Number of protocol bytes 1- n (6 - 255) incl. length byte and checksum
COM-ADR:
0..254 address of device in bus mode
Note:
The Reader can be addressed via COM-Adr 255 at any time!
STATUS / PROTOCOL-DATA:
Includes the status message or protocol data from or to the Reader. The data will be send al-
ways as MSB first if the Reader is in the ISO15693Host Command Mode (see also: ANNEX I:
Examples for Read Data.)

3. Configuration Parameters (CFG)
The configuration memory of the Reader is organized in configuration blocks of 16 byte each. These
are divided into 14-byte configuration parameters and a 2-byte CRC16 checksum. Each of these con-
figuration blocks takes a number (CFG 0...CFG n).
Structure of a configuration blocks in Reader configuration memory and Reader EEPROM (CFG):
Byte 012345678910 11 12 13 14 15
Contents PARAMETER CRC16
The parameters are stored in two different configuration memory locations:
•Reader RAM
•Backup EEPROM (used for storing parameter after power down)
Multiple configuration memory locations can be addressed by the value of the parameter CFG-ADR
used in chapter 4. Protocols for Reader Configuration
CFG-ADR:
CFGn: memory-address of the required configuration block
LOC: specifies the location of the configuration block (RAM / EEPROM)
MODE: specifies one or all configuration blocks
Bit: 76543210
Function LOC MODE CFGn: address of configuration block
The EEPROM configuration blocks are protected by a 16 bit CRC-checksum. The examination of
these checksums is executed after each reset of the Reader. If an faulty checksum is found, the
Reader goes into an error status "EE-Init-Mode" and sets the configuration block which is faulty to the
default values.
While the EE-Init-Mode is active, the LED blinks alternately red and green and the Reader answers
external commands with the status "0x10 EEPROM Failure". The "EE-Init-Mode" can be exited now by
a new reset (cold start or 5.3. [0x63] CPU Reset command). If after this the checksums of all data
records are correct, the Reader shifts to the configured operation mode.
Notes:
•Malfunctions may occur if parameters are configured without their described range or if
unspecified parameters have been changed!
•A firmware update resets the EEPROM to default settings and the Reader goes into the er-
ror status “EE-Init-mode”.

•Via the COM-Adr 255 in the send protocol, the Reader is able to be addressed at any
time. It answers then with the configured address.
•Not available by the USB-Reader
BAUD1:By means of this byte the baud rate of the asynchronous interface can be defined.
5: 4800 baud
6: 9600 baud
7: 19200 baud
8: 38400 baud
Note:
•Changing of BAUD only becomes effective after writing / saving configuration block
CFG1 to EEPROM and a reset of the Reader.
•The Reader set the baud rate to 38400 baud, if the user set an invalid baudrate.
•Not available by the USB-Reader
TRANS-FORM2:
By means of this byte, several parameters for the data transmission format of the asynchro-
nous interface can be defined.
