95 Series RFID System - Final Test
Configuration and Operation 5-15
If there is no unwanted transmission on the UHF channel, the Reader must
respond with a value lower than -95dBm for the HNL parameter. If not, refer to
Setting Up the Carrier Threshold on page 5-9.
c) Check and record the value for the existing Reader’s Carrier Threshold level, by
typing:
@r HTL<Enter>
The Reader should respond with the value for this parameter. For example,
HTL=95.
d) If the HNL level measured in Step b is lower than -95dBm, set the Reader’s
Carrier Threshold level again, by typing:
@r S<Enter>
or
@r :CONFIG:THRESHOLD<Enter>
The Carrier Threshold level setting is correct if the new HNL level displayed is
smallerthanorequaltotheleveldisplayedinStepc.Ifnot,checkforunwanted
transmission on the UHF channel. You should also refer to Chapter 4, Setup
Guidelines in the 95 Series RFID System Technical Guide.
3. Verify that an Exciter that is controlled by a Reader communicates with the Main
PC:
a) Delete all Tag records from the Reader’s buffer, by typing:
@r :DATA:PURGE<Enter>
b) Confirm that the Reader’s buffer is empty, by typing:
@r D<Enter>
or
@r :DATA:REPORT<Enter>
The Reader must report a Null value.
Note For an IPC application, the data structure conforms to the ANS.1 standard. If the
Reader’s buffer is empty, the Reader sends a Null value of $0500.InASCIIformat,
the Null value is {}.
c) Switch on the LF field, by typing:
@r B<Enter>
d) Send a Test Exciter command, by typing:
@r :TEST:EXCITER k<Enter>
where r is the Reader’s address and k is the Exciter’s address. The correct
Exciter’s response is 00.
