Page 50 An application example of the RFID System maintenance functions is given below. Enable communication diagnostic. p.20 Communicate with an RF Tag. p.19 If the operation indicator lights in yellow, check the RF Analyzer on a web browser. p.20 Check the probable causes and corrections with the RF Analyzer and implement suitable measures.
Page 51 Multi-Reader/Writer Operation There are two modes that you can use for multi-Reader/Writer operation: Field Extension Mode and High-speed Traveling Mode. You can link up to eight Reader/Writers to perform communications operations with RF Tags. One of the Reader/Writers operates as the master and the other Reader/Writers operate as slaves. The host device just has to control one Reader/Writer, the master, to easily achieve complex control operations for all of the linked Reader/Writers.
Page 52 The commands that can be acknowledged by a Slave Reader/Writer are shown in the following table. If an unsupported command is received by a Slave Reader/Writer, a multi-Reader/Writer execution error will occur. Name Supported? Name Supported? RF Tag READ DATA Checking MEASURE NOISE communications...
Page 53  Field Extension Mode You can use this mode to link Reader/Writers in order to extend the effective communications field. Even if the workpieces are not all the same height or not oriented in the same direction, the placement of more than one Reader/Writer enables communicating with the RF Tags without worrying about the positions or orientation of the RF Tags.
Page 54  High-speed Traveling Mode You can read large data sizes from RF Tags because the data is split up and read by more than one Reader/Writer on a time-sharing basis while the workpiece is moving. We recommend that you use this mode when reading data from RF Tags that are moving on a production line.
Page 55 In High-speed Traveling Mode, you can use only the READ DATA RF Tag communications command. Also, you can specify only the Repeat communications option. If you use any communications option other than Repeat in the High-speed Traveling Mode, an execution status error will be indicated in the response.
