 Tag ID*
 4.2 billion Tag ID’s are available per Site Code
( Tag ID is different from the PUC).
;
;**
 Tag Age Counter
 The Age Counter allows for advance
notification to RFID systems of the nearing
end of the tag’s functional life.
 Uniquely identifies each transmission made by
the tag.
;
;**
 Product Unique Code (PUC)
 Factory set ID for the tag that can function as
the tag’s unique ID number instead of a Site
Code/Tag ID combination.
 The user cannot change the PUC.
: ;
 Various standard transmission
repetition intervals*
(default is 10 seconds, nominal)
Different status transmission intervals allow tags to
be configured for use in diverse applications in a
way to ensure 100% system functionality and that
the maximum battery life is achieved, but without
overloading the RFID system with too many
unnecessary tag signals.

 Various alert transmission repetition
intervals*
(default is 1.5 seconds, nominal)
 Different alert transmission intervals allow tags
to be used in diverse security applications in a
way to ensure 100% system functionality is
achieved, but maximizing the battery life span
of the tag.
 When activated, alert transmissions continue
for a maximum period of 5 seconds.

 Movement Alert
Provides instant notification of an attempt to move
a tag by setting the alarm bit and entering Alert Tx
mode for 5 seconds.
;
;
 Movement Counter Value
Increments each time the motion sensor triggers
the tag’s alert transmission mode. This allows an
RFID system to determine if Alert Tx mode was
initiated because of movement.
;
;**
 Tamper Alert
Provides instant notification of unauthorized
attempts to remove a tag from an asset by setting
the alarm bit and transmitting 4 rapid alarm Tx’s.
; ;
 Tamper Counter Value
Increments each time the tamper sensor triggers
the tag’s alert transmission mode. This allows an
RFID system to determine if Alert Tx mode was
initiated because of tampering, or if a tamper event
occurred outside of a reading zone.
;
;**
 Tamper Latch
Provides notification with every transmission
afterward of a tamper event having occurred. This
allows an RFID system to determine if a tamper
occurred outside of a reading zone without having
to look up the previous tamper counter value.
Tamper latch can be reset using a Wavetrend tag
programmer.
