Multiple Readers
These devices may degrade performance of the reader. The reader may also adversely affect
performance of 900 MHz devices.
The reader should be set to use Dense Reader Mode (DRM) or Dense Interrogator
Channelized Signaling for GEN2 tags.
Antennas on other readers operating in close proximity may interfere with one
another, thus degrading reader performance.
Interference from other antennas may be eliminated or reduced by using either one
or both of the following strategies:
– Affected antennas may be synchronized by a separate user application using a
time-multiplexing strategy.
– Antenna power can be reduced by reconfiguring the RF Transmit Power setting
for the reader.
When operating the reader with EPC Global Class 1 GEN2 2 tags, ensure that DRM
is turned on for best interference protection. See the Settings Page
.
Note
Performance tests conducted under typical operating conditions at your site are
recommended to help you optimize system performance.
