^RS
^RS
RFID Setup
Important • Use care when using this command in combination with ^RT (reading tag data). Problems can occur if the data read from the tag is going to be printed on the label. Any data read from the transponder must be positioned to be printed above the read/write position.
Failure to do this will prevent read data from being printed on the label.
Description The ^RS command moves the RFID tag into the effective area for reading or writing or for possible error handling if there is an error.
Format ^RSt,p,v,n,e
The following table identifies the parameters for this format.
Parameters | Details | ||
t | = tag type | Accepted values: | |
|
|
| • 1 = Auto detect (automatically determine the tag type by querying the tag) |
|
|
| Default value: 1 |

p | = | read/write position of | Set to 0 (no movement) if the transponder is already in the effective area |

| vertical (Y axis) in | Accepted values: 0 to label length |
|
| dot rows from the top | Default value: label length minus 8 dot rows |
|
| of the label |
|
v | = | length of void | Default value: label length |
|
| printout in vertical (Y | Accepted values: 0 to label length |

n | = number of labels to | Default value: 3 | |
|
| try in case of | Accepted values: 1 to 10 (number of labels) |
|
| read/encode failure |
|
e | = | error handling | If an error persists after the specified number of labels are tried, perform this |
error handling action. Accepted values:
• N = No action (printer drops the label format causing the error and moves to the next queued label)
• P = Place printer in Pause mode (label format stays in the queue until the user cancels)
• E = Place printer in Error mode (label format stays in the queue until the user cancels)
Default value: N
Note • You can set the printer to send an error message to the host as an unsolicited message for each failure. To enable or disable the unsolicited error message, refer to the ^SX and ^SQ ZPL commands. The parameter for the RFID error in these commands is V.
