7.7 RFID
FmXP supports RFID tags located on workpieces containing up to eight individual parts. FmXP reads the
tag prior to dispensing to determine which FmXP program should be loaded and which parts are valid.
After the dispensing process is complete, FmXP writes to the tag to indicate the success/failure status of
each part and to note that dispensing has been completed on the current machine. Prior to using this
feature, RFID must be enabled.

Configuration > Setup RFID.
