Frame Sequence building

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.

Modular approach

The modular design approach for Frame Sequences allows for the following specializations.

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

• The inclusion of parallel TDM Port firing sequences.

• Protocol synchronization

The frame sequence is configured using the Tag Protocol page to define the time order over the air of

protocols and other operations, and individual tabs for protocols that each define what operations

are executed within that protocol’s frame and which Ports are employed for that protocol. The frame

sequence continually repeats over the air.

Note 1: The frame sequence defines the repeating protocol time sequence that will be followed

by the reader, irrespective of the assigned Port status in the Channels page.

Note 2: For an RF Port to participate in a protocol it must both be enabled for that protocol in the

applicable protocol tab and also set to Active or Guard in the Channels page.

Note 3: It is possible to create a sequence with Ports and timeslots assigned for Ports that are not

active in the reader. This often occurs and is required when synchronizing two readers

with different number of Ports populated as the time structure of the frame sequence

needs to be the same on both readers.

To create a frame Sequence

1. Go to Tag Protocol page.

Result: The following screen appears.
