2.1 LEDs and Beeper
The device is equipped with three LEDs and one beeper to indicate the reader status. The
following table refers to the standard settings (device set in trigger mode).
LEDs Status UDL5
blue and red: on
green: off
reader is ready to operate, RF-field is switched off
blue: on
red and green: off
reader is ready to operate, RF-field is switched on,
reader is ready to read or write to transponder
blue and green: on
red: off
beeper: on
reader is ready to operate, communication between
reader and tag (reading/writing)
blue, green and red: on reader carries out a reset, RF-field is switched off,
reader is not ready to operate
3. Configuration and setting
Please note: This manual is considered to be prelimiary.
In the standard configuration the device is set in “Trigger Mode“. This means the device waits
for a “Trigger On“ command to switch the RF-field on and a „Trigger Off“ command to switch
the RF-field off. These software commands can be sent to the device using RDemo software (to
be found on the CD which is part of the UDL5 package).
The UDL5 in its current version is EPC class1 gen2 complicant only.
3.1 Transmission protocol
The communication of the UDL5 is based on the “deBus” protocol. For integration into user-
defined applications please contact your local sales and service center (see end of document).

tags only), the serial number (EPC) of the tag to be read and one of the predefined
memory blocks.
•Click on the “Read!“ button and present the EPC class1 gen2 tag within the RF-field.
The block data will be shown in the „Transponder data“ window (see below).

5. EPC class1 gen2 memory organisation
This paragraph refers to the document “EPCglobal™, Specification for RFID Air Interface”,
Version 1.0.9.
The tag memory is divided into four memory banks. Each memory bank consists of several
blocks, each block has the size of 2 bytes. The banks RESERVED, EPC and TID must always
be available, the USER bank is optional.
•RESERVED: Non-Volatile-Memory, this memory contains a 32 bit Kill Password and a
32 bit Access Password.
•EPC (Electronic Product Code): This bank contains the CRC-16 (cyclic redundancy
check), PC (Protocol Control) and EPC. The PC bits contain information about the tag,
e.g. length of the EPC. The EPC begins at block address 66 (dec), MSB first. In case of
a 96 bit EPC it has the size of 6 blocks.
•TID (Transponder Identification): The TID memory contains data about the
manufacturer. Tags may contain specific data within the TID memory, beginning at
block address 130 (dec), e.g. a tag serial number.
•USER: allows user specific data storage. The memory organisation is user-defined.
