: Reading the serial number as well as reading and writing the user memory area
Writing the user memory area is only possible with an identification card (cf. section "Installing and
In addition to the specified protocols and card types, a large number of transponder cards
(LF, 125 kHz) are generally supported by the readers. If you cannot find the card type that
you use in the table, you can ask Siemens Customer Support about the functionality.
Please note that serial numbers (UIDs) of transponders that begin with the byte "0x08" are
always newly generated by the transponder. This makes an assignment of serial numbers
and transponders impossible. Note that when the serial number is read for transponders with
combo chip (e.g. LEGIC CTC4096), only the LEGIC Prime serial number is displayed and
not the serial number of the ISO chip 14443/15693.
The reader can be addressed and controlled by functions, for example to change the status
of the reader or to communicate with a transponder. With the aid of the functions, you can for
example control the three-color reader LED. Which functions exist and how you use them is
described in this manual.
