If write failures continue even after adjusting the position of the writer, try adjusting the Antenna Power. First select Stop Test. Now increase or decrease the power using the up and down arrows. Click Set to send the setting to the printer. Try a Writing Test again. After a successful Writing test you may choose to verify the writing by running a reading test on the same label/tag.
B. PRINTING AND ENCODING
Once you have a successful write test, you are ready to print from your RFID equipped software program!
Refer to the print- ing application’s documentation for details on RFID printing. A trial version of Bartender is included on the installation disc. To add RFID
encoding to a label design using Bartender, once the label size has been chosen and the blank label is on screen, click the Standard RFID button on the lower left to display all RFID options. Simply drag the desired data format to the area around the label. Double click on the icon that appears to set the data or data source.
Note on Encoding Errors: During printing from any application if an encoding error appears, the PTStatus monitor will appear and dis- play an error. It will try to encode again after making calibration adjustments. If it fails to encode, by default a series of XXXXs will automatically be printed on the label to indicate that it was not encoded properly. The job will then continue.
