Basic Reading
This tab is divided into two parts, the left part contains a table with information about the read tags (in the
figure below), the right part () shows the statistics as well as options to control the reading process,
described in the follow.
The appearance and disappearance of a tag is shown in color for better visual effect. When a tag appears in
the field, the row is represented by the green tag information, when it disappears, the row is red.
Figure 31 Basic reading
EPC length indicates the length in bits of the EPC; valid lengths 0–496
EPC EPC of the tag in the hexadecimal representation
Port antenna port at which the tag is read; valid values 1–4
RSSI unitless (shown as having no units) signal strength of the tag response
RSSI DBM shows the RSSI value in dBm
Reads shows how many times this tag has been read successfully
Cycles indicates how often an inventory has been started
First read timestamp of the first tag reading
Last read timestamp of the last tag reading
Frequency shows the used transmission frequency
Tag phase shows the tag phase in form of a rotating pointer
This parameter is used to distinguish between stationary and moving transponders.
If the transponder is moving away from the antenna, the pointer rotates
counterclockwise, and clockwise, if the transponder is moving towards the antenna.
The movement speed is directly proportional to the rotational speed of the pointer. In a
full rotation of 360°, the transponder travels a distance of 17 cm.
Note that the reader has to change the transmission frequency every 4
seconds, causing a phase jump.
The tag phase is also shown in the TagScan monitor;
see 14.10 TagScan
