>From what I understand, a RID of A000000304 is an hexadecumal representation
of the five bytes in the RID: 0xA0 0x00 0x00 0x03 0x04 in this case.
You are correct in that you can define the other eleven bytes as you wish,
you can even not use all of them. For example, if you want to assign three
bytes for the project (let's say the digits 000005) and five for the
cardholder id (1234567890), that is fine: 0x00 0x00 0x05 0x12 0x34 0x56 0x78
0x90. Of course you do not have to use BCD notation, you can even partition
by bit fields if you wish.
I hope this helps a bit.
