RFID CONTROL Submenus

Precheck Tags

When this menu item is set to Enable, the RFID encoder checks the tags for a pre-programmed quality code. If the code is absent, the tag immediately fails and the selected Error Handling mode is performed (Overstrike, None, or Stop). The default is Disable.

	Overstrike Style
	This menu item selects the style of the overstrike pattern. The
	default is Grid.
	When it is set to Grid, a grid pattern prints when it overstrikes.
	When it is set to Error Type Msg, an error message prints that
	indicates which error occurred (see Table 1).
