FDX/HDX signal strength indication
The signal strength received by the reader of the VP1007-B can be tested. The FDX (dF) and HDX (dH) signals
are tested separately.
1.
FDX
test:
a. Go to
HF > AS > dF
on the display.
b. Press the button until the display starts to blink.
A value (0 - 99) will appear on the display.
c. Move an FDX tag slowly into the antenna field.
The display value will normally increase when getting closer to the antenna. If there is already a high
value when the tag is not in the antenna field, this is an indication that an external source is causing
noise (see Troubleshooting).
2.
HDX
test:
a. Go to
HF > AS > dH
on the display.
b. Press the button until the display starts to blink.
A value (0 - 99) will appear on the display.
c. Move an HDX tag slowly into the antenna field.
The display value will normally increase when getting closer to the antenna. If there is already a high
value when the tag is not in the antenna field, this is an indication that an external source is causing
noise (see Troubleshooting).
For the VPU or V-pack with an ethernet connection, the RSSI values are shown on the Overview page of the
web interface.
