Frequently Asked Questions
What does this EPC encoder do?
It converts a GS1 company prefix, reference and serial into the EPC hex and EPC URI used to program UHF RFID tags, for SGTIN-96, SSCC-96 and GIAI-96, per the GS1 EPC Tag Data Standard.
Can this tool write to an RFID tag?
No. A web browser cannot write to a physical RFID tag. This tool calculates the EPC value; you then write that hex to the tag's EPC memory bank using an RFID reader or printer-encoder.
Which EPC schemes are supported?
SGTIN-96 (items), SSCC-96 (logistics units) and GIAI-96 (individual assets).
Is it free and private?
Yes — free, no signup, and everything runs in your browser. Nothing is uploaded.
