Reel Reel NFC encoder alternative for NTAG 424 DNA

[manuel_mertl]

Hi!

I am looking for a way to configure multiple NTAG 424 DNA NFC stickers instead of configuring each tag individually by hand using the NXP TagXplorer. I want to configure them in a batch process.

I found now this video online:

and contacted the GoToTag company support yesterday.

But their GoToTags NFC Encoder software does not support NTAG 424 DNA at the moment and they also dont know when or even if they will support it.

My question is:

Is their a way to configure multiple NTAG 424 DNA NFC sticker in an automatic way with pre-defined configuration files or with a software that supports that?

Thank you

Best,
Manuel

Update Sept 2024: GoToTags has added beta support for the 424 DNA NFC chip to our Desktop App and Reel-Reel RFID Encoder.

This is a powerful security chip that can self-authenticate to a web service, meaning that you can tell if the tag is authentic or not without the need for a mobile app. This makes it a great use case for wine, spirits, luxury goods, cosmetics, memorabilia...

Along with this we have added support for encrypted operations files and key exchange so you can securely transfer your tag data and keys.

How many tags are you looking to encode ? Is it once off or regularly ?

i want to configure hundreds of NTAG 424 DNA on a daily basis, so i need a device and software that allows me to do so using a NFC label roll.

Please get in touch with me at puneetrandhawa@xentag.com

We may be able to help you out.

There are various form factors like paper, PVC, PPS etc. Our machine currently supports a few of these. 

As you may be aware that ntag424 is a secure tag, so there is a AES key that needs to be managed securely otherwise it is pointless to use this tag.

Hi Manuel,
I am interested in a NTAG 424 DNA tag encoding solution similar to GOTOTAGS too. Did you find a solution? I would be interested to know about it.

Thank you

Hi @manuel_mertl ,

It is possible to configure multiple NTAG 424 DNA tags, but you have to build a custom software, implement it as something like https://community.nxp.com/t5/NFC-Knowledge-Base/Activating-multiple-Tags-using-NFC-Reader-Library/ta... .  

Have a great day,

@Kan_Li 

thanks for your reply, but i think it is not quite the answer that i am looking for.

i am okay with building something myself (no matter if hardware or software) to configure multiple NTAG 424 DNA stickers but what are the tools (cli, libs) etc. that i can use to actually configure my NTAG 424 DNA in an automatic way to replace the TagXplorer functions?

Hope you understand what i mean.

Thanks

Hi @manuel_mertl @softzer0 ,

There is a Taplinx SDK available, and you may build your own application based on that, please refer to https://www.mifare.net/en/products/tools/taplinx/ for details.

Have a great day,
Kan

I’m also interested in this topic, is there some SDK that can be worked on to make it achievable?
