10. For the Serial Number:
l Set its Data Source to Field and then select SerialNum from the Data drop-down list.
11. Click OK. Then, click OK to exit Block Configuration.
Note: The Data Source dialog shows a summary of the configured block.
12. Click OK to exit the Data Source dialog.
Creating a tag or label using DoD-64 encoding is very similar to the example above. It uses the same
DoD fields for encoding the data. The difference is the size of the data that can be written to the block.
Note: For all examples in this section, you can use the Loftware RFID Calculator application to help you verify
the encoded data.
EPC Encoding Types
This section describes the EPC encoding schemes used in Loftware and the fields required to program
EPC data. Examples are included to quickly demonstrate their use.
All EPC encodings are designed to produce a unique number. In addition to a header, EPC encodings
include one or more value fields that contain a unique EPC identifier and an optional Filter value. The
EPC encoding type you use may depend on a number of things, including specified requirements, the
type of data you include or have available to identify objects or classes.
Note: All 96-bit examples included in this section can be used for Class 1 Generation 2 (C1G2) tag
types.Because C1G2 tags require a 96-bit EPC identifier, 64-bit encodings cannot be used with C1G2 tags.
To apply the 96-bit encoding examples to Class 1 Generation 2 tags, verify that the label is configured for
a device that supports C1G2 tag types.

General Identifier (GID-96)
The General Identifier (GID-96) encoding type is a general identity type defined for a 96-bit EPC. In
addition to the header, it is composed of the following fields:
GID-96 EPC
Field
Description
General Manager
Number
This is a unique number assigned by EPCglobal to identify an entity – a company, a
manager, or an organization.
This General Manager entity is responsible for maintaining the numbers in the Object Class
and Serial Number fields.
Object Class
This number, which must be unique within each General Manager Number domain,
identifies a class or “type” of thing.
