4.1.6 Operation in static and dynamic mode
Operation in static mode
If working in static mode, the transponder can be operated up to the limit distance (S
g
). The
transponder must then be positioned exactly over the reader:
Figure 4-7 Operation in static mode
Note
Note that in a metallic environment the values for the limit distance are reduced.
Operation in dynamic mode
When working in dynamic mode, the transponder moves past the reader. The transponder
can be used as soon as the intersection (SP) of the transponder enters the circle of the
transmission window. In dynamic mode, the operating distance (S
a
) is of primary importance.
