Reading the data area of a tag
Using "Tag > Read" (<Ctrl+R> or <ALT+T+R>), you can read from the tag a data area with a
freely definable start and end address.
In the "Read Tag" window, enter the "Start Address" and "Length" of the read area and
confirm with <OK>.
Figure 6-7
You can enter any start address in the specified address range (see System Manual RF300,
Chapter "Transponders" > "Memory configuration of the RF300 tag"). This is accepted by the
Mobile Reader and compared with the tag (MDS) size.
If you enter the value "01" under "Length" in the "Read Tag", only one byte will be read.
