Chapter 2. Commands
2.4.10.3 TOGGLE Mode
The ASCII character U and the character 0 switch the reader into a special antenna
toggle mode. In this mode, both receive antennas (antenna 1 and antenna 2) are
used consecutively. Thus, two reading cycles are carried out compared to the AN-
TENNA 1 mode or ANTENNA 2 mode. The protocol sent out by the reader corre-
sponds to the ANTENNA 1 mode (2.4.10.1) and ANTENNA 2 mode (2.4.10.2).

Note:
When the reader is operating in the TOGGLE mode, the response to
the Programming command (2.4.9) is only checked at antenna 1.
