There are eight antenna (port 8 to port 15) installed for the equipment, to set antenna

power and dwell time, run the command with appropriate parameter, check the SDK reference

manual for further usage. The following example disables antenna on port no.8 and enables it.

Then, a disconnection to the reader is done follows by exiting the context shell.

Note: only one connection can be connected to the reader at the same time.

5.9. Switching to Service Mode

Once the user has completed the diagnosis, the system should be switched to service

mode. The service mode script is located in the home directory of the "sshuser". Change the

directory to "/home/sshuser". the run the debug mode script by typing

"./security-gate-DebugMode.sh" in the shell.

sshuser@freescale /usr/local/security-gate-demo$ cd /home/sshuser

sshuser@freescale ~$ ./security-gate-ServiceMode.sh

When the script executed, the security gate will reboot and switch to service mode. Always

switch to debug mode when performing diagnostic and configuration of the system. In service

mode, the security gate LED will be red when restarting and turn to blue when it is ready to

service. If the LED doesn’t switch from red to blue within 20sec, login to the system again to

correct the issue.

6. Accessing the UHF RFID Reader with Security Gate Tools

The UHF RFID Reader is internally connected to the embedded board. To facilitate testing

and tuning, the security gate tools include a program that can directly connect to the reader

through the Ethernet Port labeled "Reader Setup Port". This tool is especially useful when

developers wish to test different setting of the reader and antenna to optimize the result of the
