Networked Reader Verification
Similar to standalone reader verification, networked readers
should also be verified before entering service.
If the system is an RS-485 networked configuration using the
ICCM, perform the following:
1. Verify all antennas, cabling and power supplies are secure.
2. Verify the ICCM is connected to the RS-485 network and
operational.
3. Power up the readers.
4. Follow the instructions in the Interrogator Control and
Concentrator Module User’s Guide to Auto-Find all readers
on the network.
5. Introduce a test tag into the RF field.
6. Verify the tag was read correctly.
7. If the tag did not read correctly, use the ICCM Configure
Readers function to verify the reader operating mode
matches the application requirements.
