Correct reading of RFID TAG on CG 15 angle grinder series
Situation/initial situation:
Incorrect RFID tag is read by angle grinders in the CG 15 series
Cause:
Due to the fact that both an RFID sticker (with ID) and electronics with an NFC module (with ID) are located in the angle grinder, it is possible that the TAG number of the NFC module may be accidentally read during the readout process. This TAG number cannot be used to identify the serial number, as it is not linked to the serial number in SAP. The NFC module is only used for parameterization.
With the start of the changeover on September 19, 2025
Order: 1000047292
Item number: 72250812360
First serial number: 2025-09-000061
RFID machine: E002590568976D65
A separate RFID tag will no longer be affixed to the upper shell of the motor housing.
Instead, only the RFID number stored in the NFC chip of the electronics will be used to identify the serial number.
Solution:
Until the changeover, the machine can only be identified using the TAG number (identifier) of the RFID chip that is affixed to it.
This TAG number does not correspond to the serial number of the machine.
Our technical support team (Service@fein.de) can convert the TAG number into the corresponding serial number of the machine.
The position of the RFID sticker can be seen in the images under Media.
NFC chips are manufacturer-specific coded, which can be identified by the first 4 digits of their code. For Fein, this means:
RFID chip for machine identification begins with E004...
NFC chip on the electronics (e.g., CG15) begins with E002...
