Section1: General Description
This section presents general information about the basic characters of the UIC6811.
Features
The UIC6811 provides the following features:
1 Small footprint PCB size: 1.4L*1.7W (inch) without antenna board
2 Support ISO 14443 type A & B standard
3 Support Amex ExpressPay, MasterCard PayPass, Visa MSD applications.
4 Read/write Philips Mifare classical contactless smart card
5 Provide the options for the direct coupling antenna and the remote antenna
6 RS232, USB and PS/2 (optional) Interface
7 RS232 data pass through function
8 TTL F2F magnetic stripe decode data pass through (optional)
9 F2F decoder data emulation (optional)
10 Firmware upgradeable
Application
The contactless smart card reader module UIC6811 is mainly to support the contactless
payment systems. The small footprint size of the module makes it easily to integrate to the
current transaction system such as Point-of-Sale terminal, kiosk, and vending machine
station as the part of the system. The module communicates with a host computer or
terminal using a standard RS-232, USB or PS/2 interface.
At the meantime, UIC6811 offers both RS232, USB and PS/2 magnetic stripe decoder
pass-thru function to allow the terminal to share the same input port with other peripheral
devices. This benefits the existing system without change its hardware configuration to
catch up the future payment trend.

Communication
• RS232 Interface Data Output
Synchronization
The interface receives and transmits serial asynchronous data at voltage levels
compatible with the RS232 specification.
Baud Rate
9600 BPS default (optional: 1200/2400/4800/9600/19200/38400/56000/115.2K BPS)
• RS232 Interface Pass Through
Baud Rate
9600 BPS default (optional: 1200/2400/4800/9600/19200/38400 BPS)
• Transmission Protocol (RS232)
The user may select from three different protocols: Protocol 0, 1, and 2.
Upon reset, the reader sends the power-on response “:”, depending upon the configuration
setting. The reader then configures itself to the protocol of the first command from the host.
From this point on, the protocol is unchangeable until a reset occurs.
Protocol 0
In Protocol 0, all characters are transmitted and received using exactly the characters listed
in section 4. There are no headers and Block Check Characters (BCC). Protocol 0
3-8
UIC6811 Programmer’s Manual UDN PM0601-U Rev. A
presumes no transmission errors. If the host detects an error, it may request a
retransmission.
Table 3-3. Example for Protocol 0
Protocol 1
In Protocol 1, all messages are preceded by the ASCII character <STX> and terminated
with the ASCII character <ETX>, followed by a one byte <BCC>. <BCC> is an XOR of the 7
data bits, excluding parity, of each character in the entire message, including <STX>.
Format: <STX><MESSAGE><ETX><BCC>
where STX=02Hex and ETX=03Hex.
Table 3-4. Example for Protocol 1
Host Command Reader Response Comment
P Ready to read
^ Reader ACK
Host Command Reader Response Comment
02h 50h 03h 51h Ready to read
02h 5Eh 03h 5Fh Reader ACK
Protocol 2
In Protocol 2, all messages are preceded by the ASCII character <SOH>, followed by a one
byte reader address, one byte character count and terminated with a one byte <BCC>.
The <BCC> is an XOR of the characters (8 bits) in the entire message, including <SOH>.
Format: <SOH><ADDRESS><00Hex><COUNT><MESSAGE><BCC>
or
<SOH><ADDRESS><00Hex><00Hex><MESSAGE><EOT><BCC>
where STX=02Hex and ETX=03Hex.
Table 3-5. Example for Protocol 2
Host Command Reader Response Comment
01h 00h 00h 01h 50h 50h Ready to read
01h 00h 00h 01h 5Eh 5Eh Reader ACK
The <ADDRESS> field is for a multi-reader system. This function is not currently supported.
The recommended value for this field is NULL (00Hex), however, any value will work.
If the value of <COUNT> fields are zero, an <EOT>, followed by the <BCC>, completes the
message. The reader may, at its option, use NULL for COUNT when transmitting.
3-9
UIC6811 Programmer’s Manual UDN PM0601-U Rev. A
For Protocols 1 and 2, if the reader detects an error in an incoming transmission, it will
respond with a “Communications Error” message. If the host detects a transmission error, it
may request a retransmission. Both protocols enforce a 100mSec timeout between
characters.
For all Protocols, the host may, at any time, stop/start the reader transmission by using
software “handshake” (DC3/DC1).

4.3 Contactless Mag Stripe Command Description
• P (50H) – Arm to Read
COMMENT
1. Clear read data buffers.
2. Transmit command acknowledgement (“^” 7EH).
3. Wait for card insert/withdrawal.
4. Transmit read acknowledgement ("^" Magnetic Stripe Card or ">" other media type) after card
read. After an "Arm to Read" command is received and acknowledged the only commands that
will be accepted for execution are: <ESC> (Abort), ”$” (Status), LED control commands and
Reset command. In self-arm mode, it is not necessary to send this command, if sent it will
temporarily override self-arm mode.
• p (70H) – Arm to Read (Used for Manufacturing Test Only )
COMMENT
1. Clear read data buffers.
2. Transmit command acknowledgement (“^” 7EH).
3. Wait for card read.
4. If the card media is detected a "(" (28H) byte is sent, when media detect goes inactive a “)”
(29H) byte is sent.
5. If another media detected transmit read acknowledge ">" after card read.
This is similar to the 'P' command but send ‘(‘ at start of magnetic stripe card data and ‘)’ at end.
• <ESC> (1BH) – Abort Arm to Read
COMMENT
1. Clear read data buffers.
2. Abort Arm to Read Command.
3. Transmit command acknowledge (“^” 5EH).
• Q (51H) – Transmit Track 1 data
• R (52H) – Transmit Track 2 data
COMMENT
1. Detect the card type (ISO/AAMVA/DMV) automatically and process data in the read buffer
using detected card type format.
2. If error is detected, transmit proper error response ('*' or '+'), refer to “ The esponses to the
Host”.
3. Else, transmit data in ASCII.
