How MIFARE Uses Cookies

[Joris van Rennes]

Dear Mifare team,

Even though I was not able to use the automatic anticolission feature on the PN512, I was able to do it manually with the information you send me.

Thanks, Joris

Ow yes with this first step I succeeded. I am able to do the Selftest (softreset, write to fifo, send command, read from fifo).

From the datasheet I understood that to configure the PN512 for automatic Mifare anticollission, I should send 25 bytes (amongst which the NFCID, PAD and System Code) to the FIFO and send a config command to the command register. Since anticollission is nescessary for communication I also thought that the automatic Mifare anticollossion settings is obligated and the first step towards communication. Are these assumptions ok?

Anwayway, what would be the first steps (registers to attend to) to start the card detection (setup RF field, send REQA, ..)? I understand you can't tell me for each register what to write for my specific solution.

Thanks. Joris

Thank you for your quick reply. Too bad about the drivers but I expected this so I'll try to find out about all without drivers :)

Can you do clarify what I asked about the config command of the PN512? Or should I go to a different forum for this? I believe this is the first step towards enabling the RF field and sending a REQA. So clarification about my question about the NFCID, PAD and System Code.

Thank you. Joris
