(2) MULTI WRITE
OFF
ON
(3) CARRIER SENSE
The printer enters the carrier sense mode, and performs a carrier sense. Environmental radio wave of
each channel is picked up for about 30 times during 5 seconds. (This function is enabled only for the
B-EX700-RFID-U2-R.)
The display can be scrolled up or down, from Channel 1 (1CH) to channel 9 (9CH), by using the [UP] or
[DOWN] key.
Pressing the [ENTER] key causes the printer to perform a carrier sense again. To quit a carrier sense,
press the [CANCEL] key.
When the RFID module type is set to “NONE” or a communication cannot be established, a message,
“NO RFID MODULE”, is displayed.
When the RFID module type is set to other than U2, a message, “NOT AVAILABLE” is displayed.
When the RFID module type is set to U2 but effective data cannot be obtained, a message, “NO
RESPONSE” is displayed.
If the RFID module’s country setting is not specified (user-inaccessible setting), an “RFID CONFIG
ERR” error message is displayed.
(Example)
Channel number
The availability of the channel which is determined by performing approx. 30 carrier
senses. Thus, 100%” means that this channel is not used by any other devices.
Value of the maximum radio wave picked up
The larger the value is, the stronger radio wave source exists
nearby.
“0011” is the maximum value.
Gen2-compatible Hibiki tag (HITACHI) has a function which reduces the
time to write data on the RFID chips. This is called “Multi-word write”.
Use of this function enables a speed-up of the data write operation.
However, this function is unique to the Hibiki tag, and not usable with the
other Gen2-compatible chips. The factory default is set to OFF
(disabled).
