A system for event notification based on editing a transponder identifier is disclosed herein. The system may include a sensor system, a transponder, a transponder reader, and a controller. The system may detect an event associated with a sensor. The system may identify a transponder associated with the sensor. The system may cause the transponder to store an event identifier in a memory location of an identifier, of the transponder, to form an edited identifier. The event identifier may be associated with the event. The system may determine that the transponder responded to the query from the transponder reader. The system may store a confirmation that the event identifier was provided to the transponder reader via the transponder.
