7.4.3 Testing the Performance
For testing the performance, you must switch the reader to one of the Reader Automatic Modes (see 7.6
Activating a Reader Automatic Mode).
A read transponder is indicated by a blue LED on the reader, the alarm LED light of the antenna and the
alarm sounder (see also 7.5.3 Reader Setting for Alarm Indicators).
In this test, the detection area of the gate antenna, described in 7.1 Project Notes, is checked. With other
tags or other configurations, the indicated ranges and detection areas may differ accordingly.
Fig. 24: Performance Test of the gate antenna
The test starts with checking the reading range outside the gate (see Fig. points
and
), as far as the
configuration and location allow. If the tag is oriented parallel to the antenna at the outside, a reading range
of 65 to 70 cm should be achieved.
The three tag orientations are checked inside the gate. This corresponds to the lines and orientations
.
Now slowly move the tag in vertical and parallel direction relative to the antenna along the line
from one side to the other. The tag should always be read.
Then repeat this along the line
in vertical tag direction transverse to the antenna and on the line
in
horizontal tag orientation. The tag should always be read here as well.
The tag should be read within the gate by moving in a horizontal line through the gate in all three reading
orientations.
If one or more „holes“ are detected, check the noise values on the reader (see 7.4.1 Checking the Noise
Level).
