Guys and Girls; read and weep here to check my efforts on getting the RFID-RC522 to work :smile: first of all, what is it? the RFID-RC522 is a very cheap RFID reader\writer. it’s small, it works and it’s cheap. that makes it awesome :smile: you can buy it at DX for about 11 bucks including shipp…

@Stivi , you forgot to mention that you have your Electron plugged into an Asset Tracker Shield :wink: This does change things quite a bit and also counts as leading us on :sunglasses: Asset Tracker Shield already uses A2 as SPI SS for the accelerometer https://github.com/spark/shields/blob/master…

Hi @notsgnik , Most RFID readers only pull in the serial number from the fob. Emulating an RFID card is harder, I remember someone posted a project on that recently here: http://hackaday.com/2013/01/18/rfid-emulator-card-includes-a-learning-mode/ Thanks, David

@notsgnik , the original library I posted was for a specific member. There are a couple of other examples that show how to read and write to the fob, as well as, how to setup a block on a MIFARE Classic PICC to be in “Value Block” mode. I can port these examples and add them to my repo later today.…

@Dave I found some good one that have doc and lib to fully understand it all. it’s not emulating a card that i want, it’s to be able to read it’s content or even copy it. i’m starting to understand it more thanks to the doc on a repo i founded. [image] mcapurso/rfid rfid - Arduino RFID L…

@notsgnik , I am assuming you have a Spark Core and have logged in to the web IDE at: https://www.spark.io/build

Sorry, I ended up on this forum and signed-up cause it looked like, I would have the best answer here. I actually have a BuonoR3 from this maker kit : [image] RFID Master Kit with Motor Relay LCD Servo 1602 UNO R3 for Arduino AVR Starter |... RFID Master Kit with Motor Relay LCD Servo …

@notsgnik , we are a cool bunch in this forum. We often help folks who don’t have a Spark :smile:

I just had a look at plugging this board into the Spark.IO using UART rather than SPI, and what I found was that this is possible using an MFRC522 based circuit, it most likely is not possible on the RFID-RC522. Basically Pin 1(I2C) is connected directly to GND, and Pin 32 (EA) is connected directl…

@vk2tds , from what I could see of the spec sheets, the SPI/I2C/UART configuration is done via hardware pin configuration and unless someone wants to desolder the pins on the smd chip, the board will remain SPI.

hi @peekay123 , for the project , GitHub - pkourany/MFRC522_RFID_Library: RC522 RFID library adapted for Spark it is throwing a error from my C++ compiler, but not Spark Web IDE. C:\Users**\spark\core-firmware\build/../src/application.cpp:53: undefined reference to `MFRC522::MFRC522(unsigned char,…

@Dave Thinking about it, it will actually be more easy with the device from hack a day ^^.
thanks for the link.
