I'm not a coder and I personally had a lot of reservation and concern about using the
Arduino and NFC Chip when I rst got them. I'm sure with enough time I could have gure
out what sketches to use and how to use them, but instead I found a wonderful piece of
software that was simple to use and set up for my cheap Arduino and NFC Chip.
This Instructable is for using the Arduino and NFC Chip. If you have an Android Device that
can read NFC you can also use this Intractable to read and rewrite your tag:

Step 1: Get Your Equipment

(https://cdn instructables com/F5F/HDCN/ILJQBG4P/F5FHDCNILJQBG4P LARGE jpg)
You will need an Arduino Card (Uno or Mega). You will also need an NFC Chip. There is the
RC522 which is a smaller chip. There is the PN532 which is a large chip and also can be
found in the form of a shield for easier connection (no soldering). Aquire these however you
want. Below are some basic random links to some equipment as an idea of what there is
out there. If you have time Ali Express is a cheap place to get these as well.

The current price is 8 pounds ($11.37 US). This is money well spent. Right now the current
process using Arduino sketches to my knowledge are only available using the PN532
Shield or chip. The price of this software is about the same difference in price as the PN532
Shield and the RC522 Chip, so the money you save being able to buy the cheaper NFC
Chip should be spent to get the software. The author of the program has great videos
explaining every aspect of the software. All the features of any NFC Tag. And I can't rave
enough about how nice the user interface is to work with compared to a blind sketch
where you can't see what's going on.
Step 3: Build Arduino RFID Builder and Setup With Software

(https://cdn instructables com/FS4/3J3P/ILJQBFYF/FS43J3PILJQBFYF LARGE jpg)
The software author has a huge series of videos on everything from how to connect/build
an RFID Reader box to loading the software to loading the hex le in the Arduino. On
YouTube you can see all the videos below are a few key ones for our project:
Video of How to Install Software (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f_Vu_8bgjPA)

Step 4: Example Reset

(https://cdn instructables com/FWG/OUIH/ILJQB729/FWGOUIHILJQB729 LARGE jpg)
Use the software information and videos to get your Arduino and NFC Chip set up. I'm
going to start with the assumption that you have the Arduino built, the software installed
and the hex le in the Arduino that comes with the software.
After plugging in the Arduino and starting the software select the connect button in the top
left corner.
Step 5: Read the Card

(https://cdn instructables com/F5C/B82W/ILJQB7EK/F5CB82WILJQB7EK LARGE jpg)
After the Arduino has connected (note the Connect O.K. and status box) place the tag near
the reader and then press the select button.
Step 6: Reading the Card
Download Favorite
(https://cdn instructables com/FTQ/C2S3/ILJQB7MQ/FTQC2S3ILJQB7MQ LARGE jpg)
Once you hit select on the main screen it should automatically open the "NTAG______" tab
and you should see the screen above. At this point you should be able to click the go button
and it will read pages 0 to 7.
Step 7: Information to Provide for Key Generation

Please forward the information in the red box to me and purchase my eBay item. I will
provide the key to you through eBay, then you can follow the rest of the directions.

(http://www.ebay.com/itm/-/131767400460?)
The alternative to the eBay listing is to use a process where a logic analyzer is physically
attached to a chip inside of your disassembled printer and listening for the key. The basics
of the procedure can be found by googling Da Vinci jr NFC Reset.
The eBay listing is a way for me to get your password, so that you don't have to purchase
various electronic, learn to use them and take apart your printer and make connections to
your printer chips. By all means if you have the desire and or the equipment get your own
password go for it. I'm just providing an alternative.

Step 8: Known Concerns

Locked Pages:
When the last 4 digits of Page 2 reads as follows: [02] : F8FF (see blue box in picture for
location of bits in question) This means that pages 3 to 15 of the tag are irreversably locked
and can't be rewritten. So, Page 8 which has the color/temperature setting can't be reset.
And pages 10 (0A in hex) and 11 (0B in hex) which has the original reel length can't be
increased. Page 20 (14 in hex) has the length left on the reel, so that can be reset if your
tag has been locked. At this time we have been unable to successfully rewrite pages 20 to
23 (14 to 17 in hex) in a way that the printer does not get an unrecognized spool error. I
would recommend trying a different tag and seeing if it has all pages unlocked and sending
the info for that tag to get that tag key. This situation has only been encountered one time.
All other known tag reads have shown values of 0000 for the last 4 digits of Page 2
meaning none of the pages 3 through 15 are locked.

Step 9: Using Your Key

Once you have gotten you key this is how you authenticate and rewrite the tag. At the
main screen makes sure your Arduino is connected and you have pushed the select button.
The "NTAG _______" tab should open as seen in the picture. You have to authenticate the
card. Do not read the card by hitting go or do anything else. First you must authenticate the
card.
Step 10: Select the Password Tab
Download Favorite
(https://cdn instructables com/FQS/YBB0/ILJQBA11/FQSYBB0ILJQBA11 LARGE jpg)
Select the Password/Con g tab and the app will open what you see in the picture.
Step 11: Enter the Key
Download Favorite
(https://cdn instructables com/FWT/61OZ/ILJQBAFC/FWT61OZILJQBAFC LARGE jpg)
Enter the 8 Digit key 2 Digits at time into the 4 boxes highlighted by the red box. Then hit
the Authenticate button below the key entry.
Step 12: Authenticated State
Download Favorite
(https://cdn instructables com/F79/53NL/ILJQBASG/F7953NLILJQBASG LARGE jpg)
Once you authenticate notice the message at the bottom middle in green. Also you will get
back a number in the lower right corner. This 4 digit number is the PACK. This is the
number I request when giving you the key. In order to continue with the effort, in the hopes
of one day creating usable tags from blanks we need to gure out how the PACK is
calculated, so the bigger the data set the better chance we have or guring it out. That is
why I ask for the PACK to get a signi cant sample size to look for the pattern.
Step 13: Once Authenticated
Download Favorite
(https://cdn instructables com/F13/YNU5/ILJQBBCJ/F13YNU5ILJQBBCJ LARGE jpg)
Once Authenticated go tot he User Memory Tab and then select the go button in the top
right side.
Step 14: Reading All the Pages
Download Favorite
(https://cdn instructables com/FXX/KTLJ/ILJQBBI8/FXXKTLJILJQBBI8 LARGE jpg)
At this point you should see the above with all of the pages displayed in the scrolling
screen to the left.
Step 15: Writing New Data
Download Favorite
(https://cdn instructables com/FTD/YCKG/ILJQBBVK/FTDYCKGILJQBBVK LARGE jpg)
In the scrolling screen on the right select a box in the line of the page you want to write and
the page should change to match in the upper left of the tab. Then you can write the
contents of the page in 4 box at 2 digits each. Once you have the information in you can
then click the write button highlighted in the box.
Step 16: Good Write

(https://cdn instructables com/FZC/OX3Q/ILJQBC4Y/FZCOX3QILJQBC4Y LARGE jpg)
With a write that works you will see the green message at the bottom.
Step 17: What Values to Write Where to Reset the Length

(https://cdn instructables com/FEA/M7AO/IM5WKW9J/FEAM7A
Above is a picture out of the Android App, but is here for the values. All pages are in Hex
format not in decimal please take note of what column you are reading in the program.
Page 8 has the color and extrusion temp in it. It is the 5th and 6th digit of number. Right
now only 2 temperatures are known 191 and 210, so in the pic are the codes for each.
Temp appears to be set by color, so changing the color is the only way to change the temp.
Page 08: 5A505000 For Green and 210 Degrees
Page 08: 5A504500 For Olivine and 190 Degrees
Page 0A and 0B set the original spool length reset these values to the default 200 m value.
Page 0A and 0B: 400D0300
Page

14 has the Remaining XYZ Length on the Reel and this should be reset to the default 200
Da Vinci Junior (jr) NFC Tag Filament Reset Hack Arduino : 17 Steps
m value.
Download Favorite
Page 14: 400D0300
Pages 15, 16 and 17 change as the reel is used and are most likely just countdowns that
are used as a checksum of the length. These should be reset to the default values.
Page 15: 081F3154
Page 16: 50B1E0CE
Page 17: 52E74F76
If you run into trouble start by trying a different color setting in Page 8. If that doesn't work
change all pages 8 to 17 hex to the values that match the picture.

Nice. I just want to start simple and figure out how to put bed-leveling thumbscrews on my Junior. I still don't
fully trust the automated system. Also, I hope someone smarter than me figures out how to load another
firmware on to these things. The Junior has potential, but it's too locked in to the manufacturer.
