Product Description
Bank 00
The segment bank 00 contains the password manager, comprising the access
password and the kill password. This range is not currently supported by IUHF117-V1-*.
Bank 01
In addition to the UII, the segment bank 01 contains a calculated checksum CRC
(cyclic redundancy check) for verifying data on the tag and the protocol control
(PC) range. The PC range contains:
■ The length of the UII
■ The characteristic of the Application Family Identifier (AFI) field
■ A bit switch that shows whether the UII contains an EPC or MITL number
sequence in accordance with ISO (see chapter 4.1.6, see chapter 4.1.7&
see chapter 7.3)
■ A bit switch that shows whether data is stored in segment bank 11 (if
present)
All data in segment bank 01 are automatically set by IUH-F117-V1-*. The data is
addressed via the commands single read special read-only code (SS), single
write special read-only code (SP), enhanced read special read-only code (ES)
and enhanced write special read-only code (EP). (see "Single Read Special
Read-Only Code SS" on page 31, see "Single Write Special Read-Only Code SP"
on page 32, see "Enhanced Read Special Read-Only Code ES" on page 32& see
"Enhanced Write Special Read-Only Code EP" on page 32)
Bank 10
Segment bank 10 contains the part number and the serial number of the tag. This
data is permanently stored without being changed.
The data in segment bank 10 can be read out via the commands single read readonly code (SF) and enhanced read read-only code (EF). (see "Single read fixcode
SF" on page 31& see "Enhanced read fixcode (EF)" on page 31)
Bank 11
Segment bank 11 contains an area to which the user has free access. Depending
on chip type, this area has different sizes or is not present.
The data in segment bank 11 is addressed via the commands single read words
(SR), single write words (SW), enhanced read words (ER) and enhanced write
words (EW). (see "Single Read Words SR" on page 32, see "Single Write Words
SW" on page 33, see "Enhanced Read Words ER" on page 33& see "Enhanced
Write Words EW" on page 33)
4.1.6 Electronic product code EPC
The electronic product code is a unique code composed of a series of digits. This
series of digits has a defined structure and a length of 64 bits, 80 bits, 96 bit or
longer (depending on the EPC identification number used), is stored on the RFID
transponder and uniquely identifies every transponder all over the world.

Product Description
GS1/EPCglobal developed the system of Electronic Product Codes (EPC) for use
in resource planning. Transponders with a memory for EPC codes are
programmed by the user. The memories of new transponders do not have to
contain valid EPC codes. The EPC numbers are allocated and managed by GS1.
If you require EPC numbers, please contact the respective GS1 branch in your
country (http://www.gs1.com/contact).
The electronic product code has a defined layout that is structured as follows:
1. Header: the header specifies the EPC standard used and contains the se-
ries of digits.
2. Filter value: describes the product unit, e.g., end product, packaging, prod-
uct range.
3. Partition: describes the point at which the EPC manager mentioned below
stops and the object data starts.
4. EPC Manager: allocated series of digits that identify the manufacturer.
5. Object class: series of digits that describe the object, e.g., article number.
6. Serial number: series of digits that identify the article, e.g., consecutive se-
rial numbers of the article.
To work with unique identifications without having to revert to potentially costly
EPC codes, we recommend using the UID and TID of the transponders
programmed permanently into the transponder chips by the semiconductor
manufacturer.
Note!
The TID on some transponder types is not unique. See table "Tag Types UHF 868
MHz" on page 35.
4.1.7 Unique numbering as per ISO
In addition to the Electronic Product Code (EPC), a series of MITL numbers can
also be used as a UII in accordance with ISO. MITL stands for Multi Industry
Tra n sp or t La be l.
Example:
25SLHUNIK15000905130035
The series consists of the following
1. Data identifier
25S describes a unique object.
2. Unique company ID
LH describes die issuing authority, in this example the European Health Industry Business Communications Council "EHIBCC."
12
2012-09
IUH-F117-V1-*
Product Description
UNIK describes the company, in this case "UNIK."
3. Serial number
15000905130035 is the unique serial number.
The relevant standards relating to unique identification include ISO/IEC 15434,
ISO/IEC 15459-1 to 8 and ISO/IEC TR 29162 (in preparation).
4.1.8 Influence of various materials on the sensing range
In the UHF range, the nature of the surrounding area and the surface to which the
transponder is secured have a serious influence on the range that the system can
attain. The UHF transponder cannot be mounted on metal without requiring
adaptations. Glass has a negative influence on the sensing range when used as a
mounting surface. If a UHF transponder is mounted on damp material, the
sensing range is much poorer than the range of a transponder mounted on dry
material. The mounting surface often affects the read range much more than the
material between the transponder and the read/write head. The graph shows the
effect of different materials on the sensing range.

4.1.9 Countries of Use
The IUH-F117-V1-* read/write head has transmission license in accordance with
DIN EN 302208-2.
Note!
If you wish to use a device in a country in which this standard is not effective,
make sure beforehand that the following values for the device are consistent with
the local conditions:
■ Frequency band
■ Pow er level
■ The described modulation and operating modes must be permitted
A list of countries of use can be found in "ERC Recommendation ERC/REC7003". These are available on the "European Communications Office ERO" website
under www.ero.dk as re commendation. The cu rren tly applicable countries of use
are listed in this document under Appendix 11.
4.1.10 Dense Reader Mode DRM
A special operating mode for read/write tags in accordance with the UHF Gen 2
specification allows several read/write heads to be operated next to each other
without interference.
Europe
In line with EPC Global and ETSI EN 302208, only channels 4, 7, 10 and 13 are
used in this mode for transmission for the IUH-F117-V1-EU read/write head
(read/write head -> read/write tag communication path). The transmission power
is max. 2 W
erp
.
Figure 4.1
The read/write head can therefore only use preset channels. The response from
the read/write tag appears via the frequency offset, which is achieved by the
modulation used in this mode on the two adjacent channels. The IUH-F117-V1EU read/write head transmits on the four transmission channels 4, 7, 10 and 13,
provided that these channels have been preset. Due to the high level difference
between the transmission channels and the response channels, this technology
offers major benefits for reusing frequencies. This requires minimum distances
and therefore a minimum coupling between the antennas of adjacent read/write
heads to be maintained.
