Calculate RFID Tag Position
You can perform a manual calculation to come up with an estimate of the
RFID Tag Position. Because this value is an estimate, you may need to
slightly adjust the calculated value to achieve the best results.
1
Make sure Start Adjust and Stop Adjust are set to 0.
2
Measure the yChip value, which is the distance between the RFID
chip and the media edge aligned with the tear bar.
3
Note the yAntDist for the PM43/PM43c: 280 dots, 35 mm, 1.378 in.
4
Use this formula to calculate the estimated Tag Position:
TagPosition=yChip - yAntDist
Note:
You do not need to calculate the Tag Position value for the PM23c
printer. By default, the Tag Position is set to -13.5 mm and the yAntDist
is 135 mm (pivoted antenna) or 136 mm (flat antenna).
