1.2.3 Setting the Reader RF Power
1.2 Authorized Antennas
During initial installation, the reader must be properly
configured to use the correct RF power to comply with
FCC regulations. DO NOT increase the power beyond
the recommended power setting as calculated below.
The antenna authorized by the FCC for use with the
V740 Reader is described below.
IMPORTANT: No other antennas may be used with
the V740 Reader without violating FCC regulations. It
is the responsibility of the user to comply with this
requirement.
The maximum RF power is determined from antenna
gain and antenna cable loss using the formula:
Pmax = 36 dBm - Antenna Gain + Cable Loss
For example, if the antenna has a maximum gain of 6
dBi, and the cable has a minimum loss of 1.5 dB, the
maximum RF power that may be set is (36- 6 + 1.5) =
31.5 dBm.
