8 Setting AfiPass II Addresses and Calibrating Antennas
Access Test Mode to assign each device's address, and then to calibrate the antennas individually.
While in test mode, adjust the required ID range (transmit power level) to ensure accurate tag
detection.
The above Test Mode operations are undertaken using the AfiPass II
Technician Tool and SW1 DIP Switch (see APPENDIX 2 – DIP Switch).
The Technician's tool contains two toggle switches (TS1 & TS2) that set the
operation mode, and two push buttons (PB1 & PB2) that control the
operation and set the desired parameters.
While the device is in Test Mode, communication with the PC is
disabled and the COMM FAULT LED starts flashing after 30 seconds.
This does not interfere with the configuration operations.
The procedure's workflow is as follows:
1. Open Test Mode.
2. Assign Addresses to each device.
3. Calibrate each antenna.
4. Set the antenna's transmission power
to the required ID range.
5. Exit test mode.
