Introduction
The UM-005 module operates on principle of the contact less unique data acquiring from
UNIQUE (RFID) transponders. Read-out data is sent via RS-232 interface with voltage levels
TTL format compatible.

The principle of module operation:

Applying the transponder to reader – read-out (from transponder) – data transmission (to
master unit).

UM-005 3 ID3 (8 bits)
module 4 ID4 (8 bits)
5 ID5 (8 bits)
Read-out 6 Parity 1 (8 bits)
8 Parity 2 (6 bits)

The received response is:

Module address Frame width Response IDOperation code CRCH,CRCL
01 0b 01 ID1…ID5 ff xx xx

The module is equipped with two outputs, which signal successful read-out of the
transponder.

Connect the antenna to UM-005 module in form of air coil, which will produce
electromagnetic field and supply the transponder located in this field.

Frame format for serial transmission

Frame
Module address Response Data Operation code CRCH CRCL
width
1 byte 1 byte 1 byte n bytes 1 byte 1 byte 1 byte

Where during read-out from transponder:

Module address - 0x01 always
Frame width – total number of response frame bytes = 0x0b
Response - 0x01
Data - ID1...5 – transponder ID (5 bytes)
Operation code – 0xff
CRCH, CRCL - CRC16 MSByte and LSByte respectively

During ca. 1 sec, after turning on the power, UM-005 reader sends software version number.
This number is encoded in compliance with transmission format mentioned above, by the
same time:
Frame width – total number of response frame bytes
Response = 0xff
Data – number of software version number written in ASCII code.

The reader can be tested with free of

charge FRAMER software tool, which
makes work with frames easier.

CRC value calculation
The CRC value is calculated from equation x^16+x^12+x^5+1 with initial value equal to
0x0000. This value is calculated in virtue of all the bytes except of CRCH and CRCL.
Example of calculation of CRC value, written in C language:

void LiczCRC2(unsigned char *ZAdr, unsigned short *DoAdr, unsigned char Ile)
{
int i,NrBajtu;
unsigned short C;
*DoAdr=0;
for (NrBajtu=1;NrBajtu<=Ile;NrBajtu++,ZAdr++)
{
C=((*DoAdr>>8)^*ZAdr)<<8;
for (i=0;i<8;i++)
if (C&0x8000) C=(C<<1)^0x1021;
else C=C<<1;
*DoAdr=C^(*DoAdr<<8);
}

where:
*Zadr - the data first byte flag
Ile - number of bytes used for calculations the CRC value (in this case the number
is equal to 5)
*DoAdr - flag of calculated CRC

Unique transponder description

The Unique transponder (EM Microelectronic standard – Marin SA, H4102) comprises 5
bytes with laser written unique ID number. Correctness of read-out data process is protected
with parities written in 2 subsequent bytes. It gives 40 bytes of unique ID number. Owing to
the UM-005 reader, the transponder reads the ID number, verifies read-out correctness
automatically and next sends this number to master unit via serial interface port.
