Command Set 41
Command Set
The following list defines the OpCodes that are used in the embedded modules firmware.
As these products grow, more OpCodes will be added to enhance the functionality of the
product. The timeout for the commands are in milliseconds. The maximum value for any
user-configurable timeout is 65,535msec (0xFFFF), unless otherwise noted. The
OpCodes are divided into five main categories:
0x00 – 0x1F: Boot Loader Commands
0x20 – 0x5F: Application Tag Commands - Depending on the current protocol setting
will correspond to:
–
Multi-Protocol Tag Commands
–
Allegro/Title-21 Tag Commands
–
eGo/SeGo Tag Command Set
–
ATA Tag Command Set
–
Gen2 Tag Commands
0x60 – 0x8F: Get Configuration Commands
0x90 – 0xBF: Set Configuration Commands
0xC0 – 0xCF: Regulatory Test Commands
