Configuring the Reader
5-8 Configuration and Operation
For example, Lyngsoe recommends the following parameter values for the
Conditional Switching AC mode (CSAC) for the IPC installation:
RCS=Y; RES=Y; REM=C; RET=A; HCC=8; HCS=7; HE0=18; HE1=6
These parameters all have the default values.
8. Check the excitation field pattern as set in Step 7, by monitoring the TAP voltage.
For example, if the IPC’s CSAC mode was set and the Reader did not receive a
valid message, the TAP voltage has the following repetitive pattern: a carrier of
128.25 kHz modulated ON/OFF with 610Hz for 60 ms, followed by no signal for
180 ms.
9. Save the excitation mode set in Step 7, by typing:
:CONFIG:STORE <Enter>
:RESET <Enter>
10. Check the parameter values set in Step 7 again.
11. Check the auto-diagnostic feature, by typing:
:DAR=Y <Enter>
:TEST:EXCITER k <Enter>
where k is the decimal address (1, 2, 3, ...) of the Exciter that you want to test.
The response should be 00, followed by a number (between IP-2 and IP) of
messages from the Test Tag.
12. Turn off the excitation field again, by typing:
C<Enter>
13. Check the auto-diagnostic feature, by typing:
:TEST:EXCITER k <Enter>
The response should be C9.
14. Repeat Steps 1 to 13 (inclusive) for each Exciter that is connected to the Reader.
Configuring the Reader
The Reader’s basic configuration covers the following group of parameters:
Data buffering/reporting configuration - Group D parameters
Hardware configuration - Group H parameters
Instrument generic configuration - Group I parameters
Tag data reading configuration - Group R parameters
For more information on these parameters, see the 95 Series RFID System Reference
Guide and the 95 Series RFID System Technical Guide.
