Hi, If you are wanting to read and write RFID tags (for like tracking people, and stuff) on FreeBSD I am working on software based on the Impinj R2000 chipset. The SDK/demos are in c# / .NET, which runs in 'mono' but the mono people have apparently omitted the code for serial port callback functions so it basically sits there.. which is useless IMHO. So it looked to me like more work to make the code do what i need it to, at least in my application, instead of starting from scratch. Anyhow at the moment it's performing basic functions and reading tags.. writing tags soon. ie, # ./rfid Connected to /dev/cuaU0 at 115200 baud. RFID read/write tags Control-C or Q<enter> to quit, R<enter> to Read Tag Received Command: 72 Firmware Version: 1.9 r<enter> Received Command: 81 Tag: [pc 30 0] [epc e2 0 57 76 76 6 1 52 5 90 d7 5f] [crc 7f 6] [data e2 0 57 76] [ant 1] [cnt 1] It's free. https://github.com/waitman/rfid builds with clang but needs boost port. i presume it may work with the RS500, R500 or R1000 chips but I've not any of those to test. -- Waitman Gobble Los Altos California USA 510-830-7975
