5.1 System Requirement

5. RFID ANALYZE TOOL

When an RFID module is installed, the printer will be able to write data on an RFID tag as well as print data on the surface of the RFID-tag embedded label.

To properly issue RFID tags, it may be necessary to adjust the RFID tag position so that it stops just above the antenna of the RFID module.

A proper adjustment value is obtained by using RFID Analyze Tool. It is different depending on the following conditions.

•RFID tag type

•The shape of RFID tag antenna

•Position of RFID tag embedded in RFID tag supply

•Variation of RFID module

The RFID Analyze Tool enables discovering an optimum tag position and output power of the RFID module for data read/write.

An adjustment value is stored in the printer memory by using a PC command or “RFID Adjustment for Retry” parameter in the system mode (Section 2.9.8.)
