TagReadData

An object of the TagReadData class contains the metadata (see the Hardware Specific

Guides for details on available tag read metadata for each product) about the tag read as

well as the

TagData object representing the particular tag.

TagReadData (or arrays of) objects are the primary results of

Read Methods, one for

each tag found.

The actual EPC ID for a Tag can be found by calling the getTag() method which returns

TagData object.

See the methods available for getting TagData and metadata (including, RSSI,

Frequency, Phase, etc. - see Hardware specific user guide for available metadata) from

TagReadData in the language specific API Reference.

TagData

An object of the TagData class contains information that represents a particular tag. The

methods and constructors of TagData allow access to and creation of TagData (tag’s

EPC IDs) using byte and hexidecimal string formats.

TagData objects are used to represent the information on a tag which has been read

(contained in the

TagReadData object) and for representing data to be written to tag(s) in

the field using

Gen2.WriteTag. In addition, the TagData class implements the TagFilter

Interface so TagData objects may be used as such to perform operations, which use

TagFilters, on a tag with a particular EPC.

Subclasses of TagData, such as Gen2.TagData, may contain additional information

specific to a particular protocol.

See the methods available for getting TagData and metadata from TagReadData in the

language specific API Reference.
