• Scan Time: determines the maximum me to aempt to scan for
before giving up. When the scan buon is pushed, the RFID scans unl
it nds a tag or unl this amount of me has elapsed.
• Power Level: Sets the power level of the module. The maximum
power level is determined by what region the RFID is congured for.
For America, it is 20 dBm, for the EU and Australia, it is 24 dBm. You
may specify higher power levels, up to 27 dBm, but the radio may
have to remain o for a period of me between scans.
• Worst Case O Time: If the power is set higher than the regulatory
threshold (20 or 24 dBm), this shows the maximum amount of me
that the radio will remain o before it will allow another scan.
