Defining the RFID Setup Packet for UHF
This packet is only valid on 9855 RFID printers. Use the RFID setup packet
(X) to set the protocol, write attempts, read power, write power, and signal
adjust.
Note: Refer to the RFID Setup Guide and Supply Chart for the read and
write power settings and signal adjustment based on your RFID
supplies.
Syntax {I,X,protocol,write_attem,read_power,
write_power,signal_adjust¦}
X1. X RFID Setup Packet
X2. protocol Select the UHF protocol. The default is 0. Options:
0 C1Gen2 (Class 1 Gen 2)
1 C1Gen1 96 (Class 1 Gen 1 96-bit)
2 C1Gen1 EPC64/96 (Class 1 Gen 1 EPC64/96)
3 EM4122
X3. write_attem The number of times the interrogator tries to program the RFID tag in the
RF Field. The range is 1 – 5. The default is 3.
X4. read_power The amount of power to read an RFID tag. The range is 1 – 25. For the
Japanese frequency, the range is 1 – 10. The default is 18.
X5. write_power The amount of power to write (program) an RFID tag. The range is 1 – 25.
For the Japanese frequency, the range is 1 – 10. The default is 18.
X6. signal_adjust The strength of the RF Field emitted by the printer’s antenna. The higher
the value, the greater the power of the RF Field. The signal adjustment
varies depending on the selected protocol. The range is 2 – 10. The
default is 2.
Example {I,X,0,3,10,10,6¦}
Uses the default protocol (Class 1 Gen 2), sets the number of write attempts
to 3, sets the read and write power to 10 and the signal adjustment to 6.
