Description of the configuration parameters

2.4.4. 

“MaxErrors”

Characteristics:

available from firmware:

v1.30.00

Data type:

Byte (8-bit)

Unit:

Value range:

0-255

Description:
The “MaxErrors” configuration parameter indicates how often a command is issued by the reader to the tag when  

the response expected by the reader from the tag remains outstanding.

2.4.5. 

“CommunicationProfile”

Characteristics:

available from firmware:

v1.30.00

Data type:

Byte (8-bit)

Unit:

Value range:

0-255

Note:

Up to firmware v2.04.00 this parameter was called “DefaultProfile”. 

The configuration ID was not changed.

Description:
This configuration parameter sets the “communication profile” between the reader and tag. A communication profile 

consists of:

the data transmission rate (reader to tag communication)

the data reception rate ( tag to reader communication)

the coding of the data from tag to reader

There are various data transmission rates, data reception rates and codings available. Since not every combination 

of  these  three  properties  is  viable,  selected  combinations  are  available  as  communication  profiles.  A  list  of  the 

viable communication profiles can be downloaded from the reader by the command “GetProfileList”. It is dependent  

on the selected communication profile whether “Dense Reader Mode” is in operation in the reader or not.

2.4.6. 

“CommStandard”

Characteristics:

available from firmware:

v1.30.00

Data type:

Byte (8-bit)

Unit:

Value range:

0-255

Description:
Different  countries  have  different  regulations  regarding  the  permissible  transmission  power  and  transmission 

channels  that  can  be  used  for  communication  with  RFID  tags.  This  configuration  parameter  informs  the  reader  

which regulations to comply with for radio communication with RFID tags.
For  more  details  on  the  country  profiles  that  are  supported,  see  the  file  “rrui4api.h”  in  the  source  files  for  the  

programming environment of the RRU4 reader system.
