The Settings/Operation menu, has configuration for the Regulatory Region, Frequency Order,
Fixed Channel, Power, Tag Population, Q (override), Session, Target, Query Algorithm, and
Reader Mode/ Link Profile
Please refer to Appendix B, C, D, E, F, for the definitions and uses of Reader Modes/Link
Profiles, Sessions, Tag Population and Q, Query Algorithms, and Target.
Note that it is strongly recommended for the user to select a Tag Population that is close to the
number of RFID tags the reader will see while reading directly in front of it. If inventorying a
warehouse consisting of a large tag population, say 2000, do not set 2000 as the Tag Population,
as the reader cannot “see” all 2000 tags at once. Instead set the Tag Population to 50, 100,
etc.…. The default is 30.
The Power is default set to 300, meaning 30 dBm (1 Watt). This is the internal conducted
power before it enters the antenna. The antenna gain is 2.7 dBi. Depending on environment, a
lower power may get better read results. Experiment with different power settings to see
