The connection settings to the internal RFID NUR module and all the RFID parameters of the reader in normal mode. All settings remain in non-volatile memory over boot.


Connection


Regulate TPC and RFID USB port.

RFID settings of the reader in normal mode


Settings view
  • Q
The parameter reader uses to regulate the probability of tag response during inventory. The number of slots is 2Q
  • Rounds
Defines the number of query rounds done inside one inventory round.
  • Session
There are four available sessions to determine when a tag will respond to a reader, or that allow tags to maintain their independent state.
  • Target
Target selects whether Tags whose inventoried flag is A or B participate in the inventory round. Tags may change their inventoried flag from A to B (or vice versa) because of being singulated.
  • Tx Level
The transmit power level.
  • RX Sensitivity
No impact/legacy setting.
  • RF Profile
Three different profiles that define how the reader interacts with tags: Nominal is the default setting. It has link frequency of 320 kHz and Miller 4 in ETSI lower band regions and link frequency of 250 kHz with Miller 4 coding in FCC regions and sub-sets of that. This profile uses tight DRM filters and is suitable for environments having a lot of interferences. Nominal profile provides read rates up to 250 tags/s. Robust is intended to be used to obtain maximum reader sensitivity. This profile uses link frequency of 160 kHz and Miller 8 coding scheme providing read rates up to 80 tags/s. Due to the best sensitivity, this profile can be used when maximum read range is needed. High speed is intended to be used when highest read rates are required. It uses link frequency of 640 kHz and FM0 coding and provides read rates up to 1000 tags/s. Due to the high data speed this profile is quite sensitive to interferences. Also, maximum sensitivity is decreased compared to robust and nominal profiles.
  • Power Saving
For applying dynamic duty cycle while continuous reading is on and no tags in the reader’s field.
  • Antennas
AUX1 or Internal antenna
  • Selected Antenna
Choice between selected antennas
  • RSSI Filters
To optimize RFID reading, writing and inventory. Tags within the set distance are affected. Min RSSI value means that tag replay signal needs to be equal or stronger than the defined value. Otherwise, tag is not read. Max RSSI value in other hand means that signal strength must be lower than the filter value.
  • Timeouts
The duration the system waits for function:
  • Kill Tag
  • Lock Tag
  • Read Tag
  • Write Tag

to be carried out.

  • Channel Hopping Event
Enable or disable channel hop event.
  • Report Zero Count Inventory
Enable or disable reporting for zero tag rounds.
