GEN2

For Gen2, if Option=00, the write tag data is performed without the select option with the
following format:

In the previous example, the reader can singulate a tag with Q=0 and would try to write N
bytes of data into the first tag it can see, starting at the address 0x2 of EPC MemBank
(the first word of the tag’s EPC).

If Option=01, the write tag data is performed with the select option that enables you to
choose a tag from a population of tags based on its Tag ID with the following format:

In this example, if N=4, the reader issues a Select command to singulate the desired tag
and then would write 4 bytes of data into the tag memory of a 96-bit tag with the specified
Tag ID, starting at the address 0x2 of the Reserved MemBank (the first word of the Kill
Password of the tag).

Note

In both examples, N is a variable value that is an even, nonzero number less
than 32.

The 32-bit Address field is the offset from the MemBank origin, in 16-bit words, where the
contents of the Data field is written. It corresponds to the

WordPtr

argument in the Gen2

command specification.

The 8-bit MemBank field specifies which of the tag’s memory banks is to be addressed. It
corresponds to the

Gen2

argument of the same name. Its values are as follows.
