Parameter
Description
Modulation
scheme
Drop-down list to select the modulation scheme
Data transfer rates, radio profiles and codes with which the reader works are
defined in the modulation schemes. The selection depends on the inserted head
module.
•
1 (PR-ASK | M4 | 250 kHz)
Standard modulation scheme for FCC mode
•
2 (PR-ASK | M4 | 300 kHz)
Standard modulation scheme for ETSI mode
•
3 (DSB-ASK | FM0 | 400 kHz)
Very fast data transfer rates with reduced sensitivity and increased
susceptibility to faults FCC mode
•
4 (DSB-ASK | FM0 | 40 kHz)
Very fast data transfer rates with reduced sensitivity and increased
susceptibility to faults ETSI mode
Expected number
of transponders ...
Drop-down list to select the number of transponders expected to be read during
a scan with the reader. With this input, the reader can optimize the transponder
identification. Enter the value as specific as possible. If there is a large
discrepancy between expected and actual number of transponders, this will have
a negative effect on the reading speed.
Session
Drop-down list for selecting the sessions
If multiple readers are used in a small space, a separate session should be
assigned to each reader to avoid radio collisions.
Search mode
Drop-down list to select the search mode with which the reader detects
transponders.
•
0 (Auto)
The reader selects the search mode automatically. Search mode "1 (Dual
target)" is used by default.
•
1 (Dual target)
The reader reads transponders without interruption and repeatedly as long as
they are within the antenna field. In this mode, 50 or more transponders can
be detected at the same time. This search mode should always be used when
you want to locate transponders.
•
2 (Single target: A to B)
Extended method of the reader for identifying transponders. With this
function, large transponder populations (
≥
100) can be identified quickly and
reliably.
•
3 (Single target: B to A)
Extended method of the reader for identifying transponders. With this
function, large transponder populations (
≥
100) can be identified quickly and
reliably.
The functions of the search modes "2 (Single target: A to B)" and "3 (Single
target: B to A)" are very complex and it is recommended that only trained users
should use them.
