Channel configuration
The presence or absence of MRFM-S modules in the rack and their assigned status is provided by the Channels
page. Select this page and declare the "RF State" state of each physical slot in the reader. By default, all
channels are set to Active. Channel 1 is the leftmost slot in the reader RF rack. Those RF channels that are
known to be empty, should be marked on the Channels page as “NoModule” in order to avoid the reader
assuming there is a RF module communications fault.
A voting time is specified for each channel, which controls the timing of the "Vote" report to the lane controller.
A separate voting time is configurable for bumper mount (LPT/FME tags). There is one Vote report per tag
passage to the lane controller, even when cross channel reads occur. Dynamic voting can be enabled (toggle the
Advanced slider), which lets the reader chose an optimum voting time for that particular channel based on
recent tag traffic in that channel.
