help identifying a tag

Hi all,
I just got my proxmark, and I'm having a hard time figuring what type of card I have.
I started off from the hw tune test

proxmark3> hw tune
#db# Measuring antenna characteristics, please wait... # without any tag, lf antenna connected                 
#db# Measuring complete, sending report back to host                 
          
# LF antenna:  9.94 V @   125.00 kHz          
# LF antenna: 17.19 V @   134.00 kHz          
# LF optimal: 21.21 V @   136.36 kHz          
# HF antenna:  0.06 V @    13.56 MHz          
# Your HF antenna is unusable.          
proxmark3> hw tune
#db# Measuring antenna characteristics, please wait...  # with the tag, lf antenna connected             
#db# Measuring complete, sending report back to host                 
          
# LF antenna:  6.18 V @   125.00 kHz          
# LF antenna:  6.98 V @   134.00 kHz          
# LF optimal: 11.01 V @   150.00 kHz          
# HF antenna:  0.00 V @    13.56 MHz          
# Your HF antenna is unusable.          
proxmark3> hw tune
#db# Measuring antenna characteristics, please wait...  # without any tag, hf antenna connected           
#db# Measuring complete, sending report back to host                 
          
# LF antenna:  0.13 V @   125.00 kHz          
# LF antenna:  0.00 V @   134.00 kHz          
# LF optimal:  0.00 V @ 12000.00 kHz          
# HF antenna: 11.47 V @    13.56 MHz          
# Your LF antenna is unusable.          
proxmark3> hw tune
#db# Measuring antenna characteristics, please wait...   # with a tag, hf antenna connected
#db# Measuring complete, sending report back to host                 
          
# LF antenna:  0.00 V @   125.00 kHz          
# LF antenna:  0.00 V @   134.00 kHz          
# LF optimal:  0.00 V @ 12000.00 kHz          
# HF antenna:  8.15 V @    13.56 MHz          
# Your LF antenna is unusable.          

I think the result means that the tag is an lf tag.
so i tried to read the data

proxmark3> lf read
#db# buffer samples: ff ff ff ff ff ff ff fa ...                 

proxmark3> 
proxmark3> data samples 4000

Re: help identifying a tag

Unfortunately your LF 125kHz antenna voltage is not so good.

Re: help identifying a tag

Try to read it with specific LF em41xx command.

Re: help identifying a tag

The em410xread read command is failing ("Thought we had a valid tag but failed at word ...")
Do you have another idea for identifying this tag?

Re: help identifying a tag

midnitesnake, Thanks for the response.
I can see that there is a pattern that emerges and if I decode the bits I get it 0x1003dd8f3fe9b801 and not 0x0x4b00800fe8, what am I doing wrong?
Could you explain what is the meaning of the tests that you performed, and how did you determine that this interpretation is correct?
Regards
Yoav

He said "EM41x".
Have a look on Google...

Re: help identifying a tag

put the pattern in http://andrewmohawk.com/EM41X/ - look at the green one! open the details section to understand the bit layout and parity checks, it should then all make sense.

Hi midnitesnake, can you ask the author to add also these bit "scrambling" patterns to the above fantastic page ?
