Testing
4.1 Installation Test
After having completed the installation as described in previous section, carry out an
installation inspection and verification. If an error occurs, the guidelines in section 4.2,
“Trouble Shooting”, may be valuable.
4.1.1 Inspection
Ensure that there are no metal objects between or close to the reader and the ID-tag in
the positions where communication is to take place.
Ensure that the reader and the ID-tag are aligned properly. Avoid communication at
maximum specified distance and misalignment.
Ensure that the reader is not placed in a location where it is exposed to excessive heat
or electromagnetic interference.
4.1.2 Verification
Power up the reader and verify that it beeps once.
If the hardware fails to initiate, the reader will make two more attempts to initiate it.
Each attempt is indicated by a short beep. If the hardware does not initiate after three
attempts the reader will not read tags. See section 4.2, “Trouble Shooting” for more
information.
Verify that the reader reads ID-tags and that the read lobe covers the required area. If
specific reader application software is used, consult the corresponding software
manual for more information concerning installation test.
