Microchips in RFID tags can be read-write, read-only or \u201cwrite once, read many\u201d (WORM). With read-write chips, you can add information to the tag or write over existing information when the tag is within range of a reader. Read-write tags usually have a serial number that can’t be written over. Additional blocks of data can be used to store additional information about the items the tag is attached to (these can usually be locked to prevent overwriting of data). Read-only microchips have information stored on them during the manufacturing process. The information on such chips can never be changed. WORM tags can have a serial number written to them once, and that information cannot be overwritten later.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"template":"","faq_cat":[369],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\n
