6. Run the forth command XMITCAL as follows (enter each line in the same way
that previous CHUMP commands were entered):
}cf!
xmitcal
quit
7. Connect an RF power meter to the antenna cable to verify power output is
correct and record the power out.
8. Reconnect the antennas. The unit is calibrated for ETSI or FCC.
• For FCC, power has been adjusted to 1 Watt max at the end of the cable or
4Watt EIRP out of the antenna whichever is less.
• For ETSI, power has been adjusted to 1/2 Watt ERP out of the antenna
(800mWEIRP).
Transmit Power Reduction
To automatically set the Reader to a transmit power level less than FCC or ETSI
maximum, follow the previous steps, but increase the "g" value in the TPx by the
amount of power reduction.
For example, if the antenna gain is 6 dBi, and it is desired to run at 3 dB below
regulatory maximums, use a "g" of 9.
