Comment on Inkscape to Latex script by laclaro

Hey,

i recently discovered the perfect possibility to get your svg-images into latex-documents. the compiler simply executes a script like yours (or use the new inkscape-version) for conversion.

Watch out laclaro.wordpress.com. I wrote in german, but google translater would do this for you.

I stumbled across this pdf from TI which gives more commands to use.

http://focus.ti.com.cn/cn/general/docs/lit/getliterature.tsp?literatureNumber=sloa141&fileType=pdf

It seems the commands sent are part of the ISO15693 protocol.

Btw, I’m writing a simple test program for Mac OS X for this device. You don’t the FTDI lib to talk to the DLP-RFID1. You do need the FTDI driver but the its just to opening the device using normal BSD file i/o.

This article help me alot to get started! Thanks!

I've updated the text above to outline how I do polling. Let me know how it goes for you. Also, you should be able to open the archive using e.g. 7-zip which is freely downloadable here.

The RFID1 comprises an FT232 USB to serial converter connected to a microcontroller. DTR is one of the serial port control lines, which is connected to the microcontroller’s reset. You can toggle this line using the FTDI control library. I think the best thing to do is to check out the source code for the initiation and polling routines. I’m not sure why you are having trouble polling. What sort of tags are you using?

I’m not sure, eh. I assume the cable is straight through but I haven’t checked it. I’ll have look in the next couple of days and let you know.

Hi, I’m working with labview to the read the tag, but I like to know where is DTR o what is this, because, I can’t find it, and so far it’s not working without that configuration.

I wrote the packest in the write buffer, but only this packet 010B000304140601000000 (IEEE15693 Inventory Request), whit this I obtained something like this 010B000304140601000000

ISO 15693 Inventory request.

[,40]

But I’m not able to poll the tag in anyway.

Thanks.

If I were to make a cable for this, would I match pin for pin on both ends?
