Division 2 In order to achieve the reading distances as laid down in point (c) of Section A.6 of the Annex to Regulation (EC) No 21/2004, the transponder shall fulfill the following parameters:F1

transponders applying HDX- technology shall have a minimum activating magnetic field strength less than or equal to 1,2 A/m, as measured according to the ISO standard 24631-3, part 7.6.5 Minimal activating magnetic field strength in HDX mode ‘’ and shall develop a modulation amplitude equivalent to 10 mV as measured according to the ISO standard 24631-3, part 7.6.7 ‘Modulation amplitude in HDX mode’ at a magnetic field strength less than or equal to 1,2 A/m;

transponders applying FDX-B technology shall have a minimum activating magnetic field strength less than or equal to 1,2 A/m, as measured according to the ISO standard 24631-3, part 7.6.4 ‘ Minimum activating magnetic field strength in FDX-B mode ’ and shall develop a modulation amplitude equivalent to 10 mV as measured according to the ISO standard 24631-3, part 7.6.6 ‘ Modulation amplitude in FDX-B mode ’ , at a magnetic field strength less than or equal to 1,2 A/m.
