RFID Calibration
RFID calibration sets communication parameters for your tag type.
This procedure should be done after the printer has been calibrated for
the media (length and gap settings), typically a label length calibration.
During the RFID calibration process, the printer moves the media,
calibrates the RFID tag position, and determines the optimal settings
for the RFID media being used.
These settings include the programming position, the read/write power
level to use. To restore the printer’s default programming position
at any time, use the “restore” option in the rd.tag.calibrate SGD
command.
Do not remove any labels or tag from the liner (label backing or ‘web’).
This allows the printer to determine RFID settings which do not encode
adjacent tags.
Always do a Label Length Calibration and RFID Calibration when you
change media type. It should not be necessary when simply replacing
an empty roll of the same media.
Before beginning, load RFID media into the printer and perform
the label length calibration.
1. Press the Feed button once to advance one label.
2. Press the Home button . Navigate to the RFID menu button and
press the ‘OK’ button on the keypad.
3. Use the ‘Left’ and ‘Right’ arrows on the keypad to browse to
the ‘RFID CALIBRATE’ procedure. Press the ‘OK’ button on the
keypad.
4. The printer will slowly feed a label while adjusting the location and
RFID read/write communication settings for your chosen RFID tag/
label. The printer will feed an additional label in some cases when
calibration has completed successfully with the display message
reading: READY.
5. Remove the excess media. Media calibration has nished and you
are ready to print.
