Abstract:
1. A method of validating data to be written into a radio-frequency identification (RFID) tag using at least one computing device separate from an RFID encoder, comprising the steps of: a) receiving RFID tag data and concatenating said RFID tag data into a segmented string comprised of one or more components; b) executing an RFID validator object, wherein executing said RFID validator object comprises the steps of: c) if said RFID tag data is determined to be valid by said RFID validator object, transmitting the RFID tag data to an RFID encoder for writing said RFID tag data into an RFID tag; d) if said RFID tag data is determined to be not valid by said RFID validator object, generating a message indicating one or more reasons that said RFID tag data is not valid; and e) displaying said message at the computing device to prompt a user to correct said RFID tag data.
