Classification: Avery Dennison – Public Setting RFID Options 8-7
Enabling Singulate Mode
This option only appears in the Advanced Setup menu. The default is no.
When singulate mode is enabled, set the first TID position. See “
Setting the First TID
Position” for more information.
Select To
Yes Enable singulate mode. The printer uses low power to read the unique
TID field of the RFID inlay over the printer’s antenna. Then the printer
uses this TID number to program (with a higher write power) only that
specific inlay.
Use singulate mode to avoid adjacency issues with minimum pitch
supplies. Adjacency issues occur when leading or trailing RFID inlays
are encoded instead of the inlay over the antenna.
Note: While singulate mode is more reliable, it may decrease
throughput.
No Disable singulate mode. The printer does not use the TID field to
program a specific inlay.
Setting the Write Power
This option only appears in the Advanced Setup menu. The write power setting increases
the strength of the RF Field emitted by the printer’s antenna. Use this power to encode
(program) the RFID inlay. The range is -15 to 23. The default is -15.
Use the RFID Printer Setup Utility to determine the write power then enter the value at
the printer.
Select To
Decrease the setting.
Increase the setting. The higher the value, the greater the power of the
RF Field. If the Write power setting is too high, you may change the
data that was programmed into adjacent RFID inlays.
Press 1 to toggle the amount (1, 10, or 100).
