Hi, I cannot find any method to change the default size of EPC. Even if I send longer ids, it cuts it to 96bits.
Also, using the example code from Scan Scan Write application, i dont find how to write USER bank (if i cant write 128 bits in EPC i could use, worse case scenario, the USER bank).

Hi,

Talking about PC I did not mean the ProtocolConfig Command.
PC is the Protocol Control Section of the EPC memory bank!

As I stated above, it is described in the EPC Tag Data Standard document.
You should also have a look at the datasheet of the RFID Tag, or more precisely, the chip you are using.
The EPC Length field is 10h to 14h of the EPC meomory bank.
Please find the definition in the Tag Data Standard document Section 15 (EPC Memory Contents).

Please refer to the RFD8500 Developer Guide.
The write operation allows you to set bank, offset and length.
You also need to make sure, you set the length field in the PC (Protocol Control) section of the EPC Memory bank correctly.
Details about Tag encoding are described in the EPC Tag Data Standard​.
