== Kyosho IC lap counter communication overview ==

The Kyosho IC lap counter is based on the Melexis 90121 RFID chip with an Atmel microcontroller.  In order to communicate with this RFID reader you must set your serial device to 38400 baud, 8 data bits, 1 stop bit, no parity. 


== Automatic polling mode ==

The Kyosho IC lap counter hardware is capable of automatically polling for RFID's and returning the results without sending repeated inventory commands.  Unfortunately this mode does not return the UID, instead it returns the data written to block 1 (data begins at block 0) of the RFID.  Block 0 and block 2 must also be populated with information for this mode to work.  The following is an example of data that could be stored to the first 3 blocks for this mode to work:
{{{
Block  00  ACAE53E0
Block  01  AABBCCDD
Block  02  01160908
}}}
