Setting Up the Carrier Threshold
5-10 Configuration and Operation
5. Set the carrier threshold, by typing:
S<Enter>
or
:CONFIG:THRESHOLD<Enter>
Note If the Reader resets itself, repeat the procedure from Step 1.
6. Monitor the DATA LED for at least 10 seconds. The LED must not flicker. If it
does flicker occasionally, increment the RSS parameter value by one. Go to Step 5.
IMPORTANT * For a normal setup, the value of (HNL+RSS) must be less than - 85 dBm.
* If the noise level is higher than -95 dBm, disconnect the UHF antennas from the
Reader, and check whether the HNL value drops below -107 dBm. If this occurs, it
means that there is unwanted transmission on the UHF channel. To correct this
situation, refer to Chapter 4, Setup Guidelines in the 95 Series RFID System
Technical Guide.
7. Place your Test Transponder T95 1-2 m away from an Exciter that is controlled by
the Reader you are configuring. For more information about identification zones
and the Test Transponders, refer to Chapter 4, Setup Guidelines in the 95 Series
RFID System Technical Guide.
8. Start the excitation field, by typing:
B<Enter>
9. Verify that the DATA LED is flickering, and check whether the Test
Transponder’s messages are displayed on the PC’s screen.
If data is not displayed, check the Reader’s parameter configuration, and follows
the troubleshooting instructions in Chapter 7, Troubleshooting.
If the number of displayed messages is below n=IP-2, check the carrier threshold
and try to adjust it again. Go to Step 1.
10. Remove the Test Transponder from the field and make sure that it is no longer
transmitting by ensuring that the DATA LED is not flickering.
