See “534 Display Tag Translation Mode Status” on page 7–110.

owner ID and car number, will be extracted from these tags, translated according to AAR or ATA standards,
and converted to ASCII. Tags that are not programmed in AAR or ATA format will be directly converted to
ASCII. The reader will not attempt to translate data from half-frame or dual-frame tags.

454 Enable Multi-tag Sort
Command #454 enables the multi-tag sort function that allows the reader to identify unique tags within
a group of Intellitag-based tags. Multi-tag sort allows full operation of the tags and reader to be carried out
with a limited number of tags in the presence of the reader.
See
“570 Display Tag Protocols” on page 7–112.
Reader response:
Done
Note: Enabling the multi-tag sort function adversely affects the vehicle speed at which tags may be
read. If there is only one tag expected in the vehicles of the target population, multi-tag sort should
be disabled.
