General instructions​

Before using the RFID tags for the first time, read this manual carefully to make sure they have been installed and configured correctly.

RFID tag usage rules​

RFID stickers are thin, flexible RFID tags that can be attached to various objects, such as devices, documents or products, to make them trackable. The actual reading range of the Tag-U8-10040 depends on the reader, the antenna and the material of the tagged surface.

Protection against damage​

  • RFID tags are passive devices and need no power supply. Protect them against mechanical damage to keep them reliable.
  • Use specialised tags as intended and in suitable conditions to ensure they work correctly.

Protection against interference​

  • Electromagnetic interference: RFID tags can be susceptible to electromagnetic interference, so do not store or use them near strong sources of interference, such as electronic devices that generate strong electromagnetic fields.
  • Reading data: to ensure optimal reading, store the tags so that nothing blocks the radio signal — for example, do not store them in metal containers that can interfere with the signal.

Maintenance and cleaning​

Store and operate specialised tags in line with the manufacturer's recommendations for use in harsh conditions.

Storage​

  • If the RFID tags will not be used for a long time, store them in a dry, cool place, away from strong electromagnetic fields.
  • Avoid storing the tags in places with extreme temperatures or humidity, or where they may be mechanically damaged, e.g. crushed.

Following these rules helps keep RFID tags safe to use and increases their durability and reliability.

Frequently asked questions​

What is the difference between UHF RFID and HF RFID stickers?
UHF (Ultra High Frequency) RFID operates at 860–960 MHz and offers reading ranges of several metres, making it ideal for warehouse and logistics applications. HF (High Frequency) RFID operates at 13.56 MHz and is typically used for short-range applications such as access control and contactless payments. For asset tracking over distances, UHF is the preferred choice.
Can I read multiple Tag-U8-10040 stickers at the same time?
Yes. The NXP UCODE 8 chip supports anti-collision protocols, which means a compatible UHF RFID reader can identify many tags simultaneously in a single read cycle. This enables fast bulk scanning of pallets or shelves without the need to scan each item individually.
Are these stickers compatible with all UHF RFID readers?
The Tag-U8-10040 stickers operate across the full global UHF band (860–960 MHz) and conform to the EPC Gen 2 / ISO 18000-63 standard. They are compatible with all UHF RFID readers and systems that follow this standard, which includes the vast majority of industrial and commercial readers available today.
