Description of the configuration parameters
2.7.
The configuration group “ETSI”
2.7.1.
“PortChannelListGlobalValue1...16”
Characteristics:
available from firmware:
v1.30.00
Data type:
Byte (8-bit)
Unit:
–
Value range:
0-15
Description:
These configuration parameters are relevant only if “ETSI_EN302208” or “ETSI_EN302208_LBT” was selected as
the communications standard.
These configuration parameters serve for the administration of the radio channels approved for Europe; taken
together they constitute the ETSI channel list. This channel list contains a maximum of 16 entries. Each entry
can contain an ETSI channel number in the range from 1 to 15. A value of zero denotes the end of the channel
list. All entries of configuration parameters with a higher index are then ignored. If the configuration parameter
“ChannelSwitchingMode” is set accordingly, the reader selects a channel from this channel list at random
for communication with the tags.
2.7.3.
“ChannelSwitchingMode”
Characteristics:
available from firmware:
v1.30.00
Data type:
Byte (8-bit)
Unit:
–
Value range:
0-1
Description:
This configuration parameters is relevant only if “ETSI_EN302208” or “ETSI_EN302208_LBT” (only in existing
systems) was selected as the communications standard.
Note
The LBT (Listen Before Talk) operating mode is permissible only in existing systems.
This configuration parameter specifies whether the reader performs the channel selection in “mode 0” or in “mode 1”:
ETSI-
Communication standard
Mode 0
Mode 1
ETSI_EN302208
no LBT; uses the global channel list for
every port, random selection of the channel
no LBT; uses the channel list associated
with the port, with random selection of the
channel
ETSI_EN302208_LBT
LBT on the first parameterised antenna;
uses the global channel list for every
port, with random selection of the channel
sequence; no new LBT - and hence no
channel change - when changing port
LBT at each change to this port; uses the
channel list associated with the port, with
random selection of the channel
