CA 2322784

An electronic tag (10) is provided which includes magnetic sensing means (18) which is operable to sense a change in a magnetic field in order to programme the tag (10). Typically, the tag (10) includes microprocessor based circuitry (14) including storage means (20), the microprocessor based circuitry (14) being programmable in response to activation of the magnetic sensing means (18). The tag (10) further includes transmitter means (12) connected to the microprocessor based circuitry (14) and operable selectively to transmit data sourced from the microprocessor based circuitry (14). Accordingly, the microprocessor based circuitry (14) may include a microcontroller which has one of its input ports connected to the contact of the magnetic sensing means (18), typically a reed switch or the like, for feeding data into the microcontroller. In response to activation of the reed switch, the microcontroller may enter into a programming mode, a monitoring mode, or the like.

La présente invention concerne une étiquette électronique (10) comprenant un moyen de détection magnétique (18) capable de détecter une modification de champ magnétique destinée à programmer l'étiquette (10). Généralement, l'étiquette (10) comprend un circuit commandé par microprocesseur (14) renfermant un moyen de stockage (20), lequel circuit (14) peut être programmé en réponse à l'activation du moyen de détection magnétique (18). L'étiquette (10) comprend également un moyen émetteur (12) qui est relié au circuit commandé par microprocesseur (14) et qui peut de façon sélective transmettre des données provenant du circuit commandé par microprocesseur (14). A cet effet, le circuit commandé par microprocesseur (14) peut comprendre un microcontrôleur dont l'un des ports d'entrée est connecté au contact du moyen de détection magnétique (18), généralement un contact en ampoule ou analogue, afin de permettre la transmission de données au microcontrôleur. En réponse à l'activation du contact en ampoule, le microcontrôleur peut entrer dans un mode de programmation, un mode de surveillance ou analogue.
