Just a FYI for anyone interested. After some experimenting I found the _thread works with micro python, which I wasn't aware of.

So threading works just how you think.

I'm using the same Unit with M5Paper and its working very well. I did get a similar error when I was first starting my project.

I did eventually get it working with the following set up.

uhf_rfid_0.set_region(uhf_rfid_0.REGIN_US)
uhf_rfid_0.automatic_freq_hopping(0xFF)
uhf_rfid_0.set_channel_freq(924.25)
epc_bool = 0
uhf_rfid_0.set_select_mode(0x01)

and then start waiting for tags with
def reader():
temp = None
count = None
clean = None
while True:
count += 1

    # while not temp:
    temp = uhf_rfid_0.single_polling()

    if temp:
        # label10.setText(str(temp))
        print("-----")
        print(temp[0])
        print(temp[1])
        print("-----")

this is on a separate thread and works quite well for my requirements.

The other issue I had and not sure if it was because I did not read correctly however. it works with the following tags (UHF RFID Tag ISO18000-6C)

Not sure if it helps, but I hope it offers some info thats of use.
