Radio-frequency identification (RFID) is the use of a wireless non-contact system that uses radio-frequency electromagnetic fields to transfer data from a tag attached to an object, for the purposes of automatic identification and tracking. FMB640 can be configured in a way to use with an RFID reader. When an RFID of some sorts (typically a plastic card with a magnetic line) is used with an RFID reader which is connected to FMB640, the device creates a record with the data that the RFID reader has read and can be sent to a server with all other information. RFID ID is activated  like an I/O parameter <br><br>

To set up FMB640 so it can be connected to an RFID reader, some parameters have to be set up. Go to RS232 \ RS485 and set up COM1 or COM2 settings to RFID Mode or RFID MF7 Mode (the used mode depends on the mode that the RFID reader works). See Figure 922. The Baudrates foreach mode are: <br>

RFID Mode – 57600<br>

RFID MF7 Mode – 9600<br>

The difference between ''RFID HID Mode'' and ''RFID MF7 Mode'' is that in ''RFID HID Mode'' {{{model|FMB640}}} understands RFID messages that are in hexadecimal format and ''RFID MF7 Mode'' interpretes messages that are in decimal format. The type of RFID message sent to {{{model|FMB640}}} depends on the RFID reader. For example, ''RFID HID'' mode message looks like "$aa$02$03$04$17$89$00$01" while ''MF7 mode'' message is of following format: "1213141519".<br/>The selected mode has to correspond to the RFID reader's mode.<br/>Please contact your local sales representative for more information about RFID IDs and devices.
