/urdm6300

A micropython driver for the popular RDM6300 RFID card reader. This should still work reliably, but is no longer actively maintained.

Primary LanguagePython

urdm6300

urdm6300 is a simple micro python driver / library that allows you to read RFID cards from an attached RDM6300 board. Several suppliers manufacture these boards, including seeed studio and various Aliexpress sellers.

Installation

Simply download the urdm6300 folder and upload it to your micro python board. You can download this entire repository here.

Examples

Using the default UART config (machine.UART(1, baudrate=9600, timeout=2, timeout_char=10, tx=19, rx=18)).

from urdm6300 import Rdm6300

rfid_reader = Rfid()

# note that this is not blocking and needs to be called as often as possible to check for new card scans
card_id = rfid_reader.read_card()

You can also specify your own UART object if you'd like:

from urdm6300 import Rdm6300
import machine

uart = machine.UART(1, baudrate=9600)
rfid_reader = Rfid(uart)

# note that this is not blocking and needs to be called as often as possible to check for new card scans
card_id = rfid_reader.read_card()

You can also add this repo as a git sub module to your project to make keeping it up to date easier.
