Configuration Types

Asset Tag Format

The asset tag format configurations allow users modify the behavior of associating RFID tags to assets. To access the Asset Tag Format Configurations, click on the button. On this page, you will see tabs for Tagging Options, EPC Data and Other Memory Banks.

Under Tag Creation Option, Assign Tag will be enabled by default. TagMatiks AT Lite does also have the ability to Encode or Print RFID Tags.

If you enable Encode Tag or Print Tag then when creating assets, you will have the ability use these options for associating RFID tags.

The EPC Tag Data tab allows you to configure the content that is used to generate the EPC value if you are encoding or printing RFID tags/labels.

You can choose the following options - Tag Data Format: Either choose a custom schema where you can define your own encoding rules or use the SGTIN format.

The Other Memory Banks tab lets you enable the banks for the lock password, kill password as well as the user memory bank. By default, they are disabled.

For the lock password and kill password, based on the UHF (RAIN) standard, the values are defined in hexadecimal (A-F, 0-9) for a maximum of 8 total characters.

For the User Memory bank option, the size in bits is how large the user memory bank is defined on your desired tag. You need to define a separator which is used in between the desired fields you are looking at adding.

The options outlined above are advanced and for that reason, we recommend you to stick with TagMatiks Pre-Printed, Pre-encoded tags and labels.

Employee Tag Format

Similar to the asset tag format, TagMatiks AT Lite allows you to define an RFID tag value for employees as well. This functionality is simply for association as the linking of employee tags and assets tags is only available in TagMatiks AT Enterprise.

Auto Generate

The autogenerate tab provides the functionality to auto generate the values defined for the part number and the asset id/name. If enabled, the values will auto populate and be autogenerated.

Transaction

The transaction configuration available is to help define the default number of days after a checkout that an asset is due back. This value is used when using the checkout workflow.

Sensor Profile

The sensor profile setting allows you to enable sensor based RFID tags. Once enabled, sensor profiles can be created and associated with RFID tags. Please see the topics under Sensors for more details.

Export Data

As part of the reporting features in TagMatiks AT Lite, you can set a default file format when generating reports so it doesn’t ask you to choose every time. In addition, you can also choose to allow the user to be able to select the format of the report.
