Signal Interference
Signal interference is RF signals that interfere with the
information being exchanged between the Dura-label and the
InstaScan. Signal interference can severely diminish the
Scanner’s ability to read information from the Dura-labels. The
Activity LED on the InstaScan flickers constantly if the InstaScan
detects signal interference.
The source of the interfering signals may be:
An RF system, such as an RF local-area network (LAN) or
another Interactive Identification system, located close to
your system.
Security gates, garage doors, or similar devices that emit RF
signals.
Appliances such as microwave ovens.
The effects of these noise sources are localized and can be
eliminated by relocating the InstaScan or its antenna.
Your
system’s communication capabilities are significantly
reduced when the noise level perceived by the system exceeds
the strength of signals received.
