Select either Type 1 or Type 2 feedback. Type 1 means that the same feedback is provided to any TDM feedback

tag seen by the reader. Type 2 means the reader examines a reader-local Status File to determine what feedback

to provide. Each feedback tag can be provided a different feedback according to status settings of the Status File.

The Status File must have been previously transferred to each side of the reader.

Select the desired audible feedback to control OBU beeping when a transaction occurs.

Select the desired visual feedback to control OBU LED flashing when a transaction occurs.

Configuring Reader switch-over events

The Reader can be configured to automatically switch over to the secondary side when certain failures are

detected on the primary side.

1. Set the front panel SPM redundancy mode switch to the AUTO position.

From the reader Dashboard page, click the General button.

On the Switchover pane, enable or disable the desired events which would trigger a swich-over to the secondary

side.

Multi-protocol tag acquisition sequence building

Multi-protocol acquisition sequence building, also referred to as Frame Sequence building, allows the user to

customize over the air protocol sequences that a Reader or a network of Readers can use to identify, register,

and track multiple protocols in a toll environment.

The modular design approach for multi-protocol acquisition sequences allows for the following specializations.

• Balanced weighting between all protocols regardless of TDM or FDM division

• The inclusion of parallel TDM channel firing sequences.

• Protocol synchronization

The Frame Sequenceis configured using the Tag Protocol page to define the time order over the air of protocols

and other operations, and individual panels for protocols that each define what operations are executed within
