INTRODUCTION
The purpose of this reference guide is to assist customers and sales people during the sales discussion
process and when completing the Omni-ID Tag Service Bureau Form, which is intended to capture the
customers encoding and printing requirements.
Tag commissioning utilizing a standard label is designed to be used as a menu card system. This means that
the customer has the choice of a limited number of commonly used barcode symbologies and can input data
that is specific to their application.
The combination of print and barcode samples shown on this document are by definition standard service
bureau options. Any combination that is not shown, or referenced in the barcode options summary table, is
by definition a custom label design.
The styling of the standard label designs in this document are intended as a guide and within reason layouts
and fonts can be considered as dynamic. Final approval should always be sought from the customer prior to
any production run, and OIDC should provide an accurate sample (either physical or a drawing) to seek
approval.
LABEL MATERIAL OPTIONS
Omni-ID’s Standard Service Bureau printing is offered with a rugged synthetic label stock as standard.
Product type
Hard tag (individual tags)
IQ labels (reel loaded)
Label description
50µ white PET self-adhesive label
99µ white PET decorative label
CHIP ENCODING OPTIONS
H3 & MR6 - The Omni-ID tag commissioning service programs data into the 96bit EPC section of the memory.
This 96bits allows 24 hexadecimal characters to be programmed into the chip. Omni-ID also allows decimal
sequencing of these 24 characters if required.
M4QT - The Omni-ID tag commissioning service programs data into the 128bit EPC section of the memory.
This 128bits allows 32 hexadecimal characters to be programmed into the chip. Omni-ID also allows decimal
sequencing of these 32 characters if required.

DO002093-02
HEXADECIMAL SEQUENCING
Hexadecimal sequencing utilizes an extension of the regular 0-9 numbering system so that more data can be
stored on a chip using less characters.
In the case of Hexadecimal, the sequencing includes 0-9 then A-F, before returning to 0.
It is important to ensure that the 2 numbering sequences are not mixed together; the simplest way to ensure this
does not happen is to specify the start and end data for a sequence, and then cross reference with the total number
of tags.
Hexadecimal sequencing is best illustrated as a worked example:

The EPC memory allocation allows the customer to specify data which is compliant with global standards such
as DoD-96, GIAI-96, GID-96, GRAI-96, SGLN-96, SGTIN-96, and SSCC-96. This is of particular relevance when
tags are being supplied into solutions already using RFID, or in open supply chain scenarios where
interoperability between parties is required.

DO002093-02
Important Note:
Omni-ID provides the ability to encode the tag data to meet these standards but is not responsible for
specifying compliant data sequences; it is the customer’s responsibility to ensure compliance by providing a
suitable start and end number to the programming sequence.
Customers should contact EPC global or GS1 if they have questions regarding data compliance.
The EPC global standards utilise a template approach to the data sequence, examples are provided below:GID-96bit example: (General Identifier)
