EPC memory
Product number, generation letter and serial number of the tool are stored in the EPC memory of the RFID
chip. The information is presented as a 20-character-long string.
Example
String stored in EPC memory: 84366130150670730145
The string reserves three characters for the generation letter, which is presented in ASCII format. As the
ASCII codes of the generation letters only use two characters, a “0” is always added in front of the ASCII
code.
The table below shows the generation letters with corresponding ASCII codes.

The EPC memory is writable which enables the chip information to be reprogrammed in cases where the
motor from one tool is to be reused in another tool.
