Standalone Reader Verification
Every effort has been made to ensure the MP9320 is configured to match your
application. However, it is recommended that the reader configuration be verified
before placing the reader into service. If the system is to be used as a local, standalone
reader connected to a terminal or PC, perform the following:
1. Verify all antennas, cabling and power supplies are secure.
2. Verify the operator terminal or PC is connected to the reader and operational.
3. Launch a terminal emulation program such as HyperTerminal.
4. Set the terminal serial port parameters to the reader default values (9600, 8, 1,
none).
5. Power up the reader.
6. Introduce a test tag into the RF field.
7. Verify the tag was read correctly.
8. If the tag did not read correctly, use the Configuration Read (Cr) command to
verify the reader operating mode matches the application requirements (refer to
Appendix A). If necessary, use the Configuration Write (Cw) command to
reconfigure the reader operating modes.
NOTE: Refer to the Comprehensive Heuristic Unified Messaging Protocol (CHUMP)
Reference Guide for detailed information on the Cr and Cw commands,
reader configuration words, and other CHUMP commands.
