Smart Reader Operation NFC Templates ID Only
April 4, 2024 at 2:55 AMID Only Template
Description
The ID Only Template is the basic Template to read a card or tag’s protocol-level IDentifier.
Pay attention that such IDs may easily be cloned or spoofed, and that NFC mobile phones as well as modern, privacy-concerned card solutions, use random protocol-level IDentifiers, that would change all the time.

If this register is set, the Reader adds a token to its output to tell the receiver what kind of credential has been read.
| Bit | Role | Values |
|---|---|---|
| 7-4 | RFU | |
| 3-2 | Position of the Card Type Token | 0 : Before the Prefix1 : After the Prefix, before the Data2 : After the Data (before the Suffix)3 : RFU |
| 1-0 | Add a Card Type Token to the output stream? | 0 : Do not add a Card Type Token1 : Add a numerical (hex) value as Card Type Token.2 : Add a char as Card Type Token.3 : RFU |
PFX - Prefix
Offset : 2
Size : 8
A Template-specific Prefix, that is added after the Reader’s global Prefix.
Remark : Use \t for a Tab, \n for Enter, \b for Back space, \v for Vertical space.
