5-8-2-3 Repeat Mode
The Reader/Writer waits for a Tag to enter the R/W Antenna’s communications area. Every time an
Tag enters the communications area, the Reader/Writer communicates with the Tag and returns a
response. It is not until communications are stopped by the Stop or Reset command that the
Reader/Writer accepts the next command.
Note
To send another command from Repeat Mode, be sure to use either the stop
command or reset command, and make sure that the Reader/Writer has fin-
ished processing commands and is in command waiting status before send-
ing the new command.
