Frequency Agility
In exceptionally noisy environments or in case of a high concentration of
radio devices, Star system performance may be improved by configuring
Frequency Agility. Frequency Agility parameters change the way the radio
frequencies are used in a Star communication system.
As when changing the System Speed, use the following procedure:
1. Link the PM9300 with a BC9xxx Base.
2. With the PM9300, read one of the “Frequency Agility” programming
labels below.
3. Place the PM9300 into the BC9xxx.
Reader and Base will then be linked and the new frequencies handling will be
operational.
DEFAULT
$CSTFA00
Use default fixed channel
$CSTFA80
Enable frequency hopping
The channel is changed automatically
CAUTION
it is possible to select a fixed channel with a frequency different from
the default; please contact Datalogic Technical Support for informa-
tion about this feature.
For the 910 models, the radio range can change depending on the Fre-
quency Agility parameter value; in particular, at low speed, the radio
range is shorter when a fixed channel is programmed. See the Radio
Range values in
"Radio Features"
on page 291 of Technical Specifi-
cations.
Restore Default command does not modify this parameter.
