RFID Setup
Description This command sets up parameters including tag type, read/write position of the
transponder, and error handling.
Format ^RSt,p,v,n,e,a,c,s
The following table identifies the parameters for this format.
Important • Use care when using this command in combination with ^RT or ^RFR for
reading tag data. Problems can occur if the data read from the tag is going to be printed on the
label. Any data read from the transponder must be positioned to be printed above the
read/write position. Failure to do this will prevent read data from being printed on the label.
Parameters Details
t = tag type Accepted values:
• 0 = None
• 1 = EPC Class 0
• 2 = EPC Class 0 Plus
• 3 = EPC Class 1 64-bit
• 4 = EPC Class 1 96-bit
• 5 = ISO 18000-06B
Default value: 4
p = read/write position of
the transponder
Sets the read/write position of the transponder in the vertical (Y axis) in dot
rows from the top of the label. Set to 0 (no movement) if the transponder is
already in the effective area without moving the media.
Important • If a label format specifies a value for this parameter, this
value will be used for the programming position for all labels until a
new position is specified or until the printer is powered Off (
O ) and
then back On ( I ).
Accepted values: 0 to label length
Default value: label length minus 1 mm (1/16 in.)
v = length of void
printout
Sets the length of the void printout in vertical (Y axis) dot rows.
Accepted values: 0 to label length
Default value: label length
n = number of labels The number of labels that will be attempted in case of read/encode failure.
Accepted values: 1 to 10
Default value: 3
