I don't know as I don't have one.
I was taking a guess based on i2c protocol. -
It can not be change the iic address. It has been defined by hardware of RFID module in RFID Unit.
Here's the description about IIC address

ah, so in this case, @falmasi will need to use an i2c expander.
Something like the TCA9548A to use multiple devices on one port.

Should it have to work?
Thanks, -
No that is an I/O expander NOT an i2c expander.
you need an i2c expander like this.
