In the RedBee RFID documentation it says that you can save up to 48 tags.
Does that mean that I can only use 48 different tags to swipe (will the 49th tag not raise any event?)
or are the saved tags only used for security applications like a door lock?

For my application it should be possible that I can use about 100 different tags that raise an event with the tag id when the tag is swiped.

Is that possible?
Thanks

Are you using it with an external controller? The redbee will store up to 48 tags in its internal tag list, and send serial messages stating what tag was scanned and if it is in that list. If you want to use 100 tags, and have them do 100 different events, you'll need to either hook up a microcontroller or a computer to implement that logic.
