Will flipper read this?

The MarkTag Classic, part number S1255, is a long-range RFID Microwave Tag designed for hands-free vehicle identification. Each ID-tag comes with a pre-programmed 8-digit unique identity code and a large 32-bit checksum to ensure reliable identification, even in environments with multiple tags.

Key features of the MarkTag Classic include:

  • Long-range identification, with a detection range of up to 33 feet using a TagMaster RFID LR-series Reader.
  • The tag does not emit radio signals; it reflects a modulated response to a reader request.
  • It is battery-powered, offering a predictable lifetime of up to 5 years, independent of the number of reads.
  • The tag generates a low battery alarm to the reader, informing the host systems when battery levels are low.
  • It is designed for various applications, including gated communities, airport parking, university and hospital parking/personnel access, and commercial vehicle management systems.

The MarkTag Classic operates at a frequency of 2.435 to 2.465 GHz and can operate in temperatures ranging from -4°F (-20°C) to +185°F (+85°C). Its dimensions are 3.39 x 2.13 x 0.16 inches (86 x 54 x 4 mm), and it is designed with IP54 protection.

Flipper can only do proper Bluetooth LE in this frequency range. Unless this tag is BLE (unlikely but possible), it’s a no-go.

Here is the answer to that. It’s RFID so it’s not Bluetooth.

@maqumih said the sentence before ‘The Flipper only speaks BLE in this Frequency’ and fall back to this statement. So the answer is correct.

Sure you could use a GPIO extension for everything, but someone needs to develop it.
Status now: not supported.

Neither the Proxmark3 could help in this range, as far as I know.
Maybe a HackRF is the right tool at this place. Or a modified reader.

I’m not sure it is RFID in classic sense, especialy since the tag is battery-powered. We all know that coders tend to be lazy and copy existing solutions…

I see what you mean. The datasheet doesn’t look well written.
