Sync Mode
The sync mode selections allow the user to change the frame timing to allow interoperability
between different types of electronic (TR4024, TR4200 and TR4215). The rule of thumb is to set
the master’s timing to associated submaster types. There are three timing selections:
• Evolve Sync Mode (TR4200 and TR4210)
• TR4024/TR4026 Sync Mode
• NGL Sync Mode
There are some limitations when the TR4215 is the master in a sync network with either the
TR4024 or TR4200 boards as submasters. The set of rules are listed below:
• When all the readers are TR4215 (NGL) the sync mode should always be set to NGL
Sync Mode.
• When the TR4215 master is driving either the TR4024 or the TR4200 submaster the
timing shall be set to either TR4024/TR4026 Sync Mode or Evolve Sync Mode
respectfully.
• The TR4215 master can drive either all TR4024 submasters or all TR4200 submasters in
a sync network. All submasters must be of the same type. It is not allowed to have both
TR4024 and TR4200 submasters in the same sync network with a TR4215 master.
• If the TR4215 master is driving one of the two different submaster readers using the
appropriate timing for that type submaster reader, a TR4215 can not be one of the
submasters.
• A TR4024 master can not drive a TR4215 submaster.
TX Control
The TX Control checkbox enables software transmitter power control when checked. This
prevents tag deactivation when tags are close to the antenna. Even though the DMS tool allows
different TXC modes, for TR4215 there is only one mode that is selected regardless of the mode
setting in the DMS tool. The effective selection is enabling and disabling via the DMS.
