Escort LRP2000 manual Set Operating Mode, Framing Editing

Menu Configuration

5.2.3 Set Operating Mode

The “[3] Set Operating Mode” menu allows you to choose the ABx command protocol the LRP2000 uses, or configures it to enter Continuous Read Mode automatically upon start-up.

*** Set Operating Mode ***

Operating Mode? [0] ABx Standard* [1] ABx Fast [2] ABx ASCII

Checksum? [0] Disabled* [1] Enabled

Power up in Continuous Read Mode? [0] NO [1] Single Tag [2] Multiple Tag Start Address (0 to 47)1

Delay Between Duplicate Decodes (0 to 60)

Raw Read Response? [0] NO [1] CR terminate [2] CR/LF terminate Save Changes to EEPROM? [0] No [1] Yes

Operating Mode

The LRP2000 offers three modes for the transfer of data and commands. ABx Standard (ABxS) uses only the LSB for tag data, while ABx Fast (ABxF) uses both the MSB and LSB for the passing of data. ABx ASCII (ABxA) mode permits RFID operations using seven-bit data packets in the form of printable ASCII characters.

Framing Editing

If option 1 “ABx Fast” or option 2 “ABx ASCII” is chosen from “Operating Mode” above, you have the option of modifying the packet header and terminator characters. This can be useful when interfacing with other Host devices that require the terminator to be a CR “0Dh.” The current preamble and terminator will be displayed.The default values are 02h 02h as the packet header, and 03h as a single terminating character. These are the values used in command and response examples throughout this Operator’s Manual, but can be changed to fit your needs. To use the current message framing, simply answer NO.

Current FAST Packet Framing

Preamble = 02H 02H

Terminator = 03H

Modify FAST packet framing? [0] No [1] Yes

OR

Current ASCII Packet Framing

Preamble = 02H 02H

Terminator = 03H

Modify ASCII packet framing? [0] No [1] Yes

If the YES option is selected the following prompt appears asking whether the packet should have a one- or two-character header.

Number characters in packet preamble? [1] One [2] Two

If a one-character preamble is desired, you are prompted to enter the hexadecimal value of the character in the range of 01h to 7Fh. The value 0 is illegal and cannot be used for the message preamble.

New FAST Header Character (01 - 7F) =

1.Valid ranges for Start Address and Length depend on the tag category.
