Aligning the Antenna
After verifying that the scanner is operating properly, use the following
procedure to align the antenna pairs. Aligning the antennas ensures
optimal performance.
1. Connect the scanner to COM1 or COM2 and turn the power on.
2. Run the application “Series 5 Test Tool” in the “Series 5 Tools”
folder in the start menu.
3. From the “mode” menu, select antenna alignment. From the
scanners menu, select S512-C if this choice has not been selected
previously.
4. Select the button for “Antenna 1” and then press the “Go” button.
5. Move a tag into the “scanning area”, the point where you intend to
scan.
6. Adjust the antenna until the application indicates it detects a tag.
You can find the complete scanning field by moving the tag around.
When the application detects a tag, the window will flash red and the
computer will beep.
7. Use the buttons just below the menu to select either “Antenna 1” or
“Antenna 2”.
This completes the S512-C Scanner installation procedure.
