RF Features
Automatic Configuration Update
When this feature is enabled, the base station and reader will keep their config-
urations synchronized. If a reader's configuration is altered by reading pro-
gramming labels, this change is automatically transfe
rred and updated in a
linked base station. Likewise, if the base station's configuration is changed
using Aladdin or by host commands, then the reader's configuration will auto-
matically be updated if t
his feature is enabled.
RF Address Stamping
Source Radio Address Delimiter Character
This option specifies the delimiter character to be placed between the label
data and radio address when address stamping is enabled.
NOTE
This feature only applies if
"Source Radio Address Transmission"
on
page 249 is enabled.
Follow these instructions to select the delimiter character:
1. Determine the desired character, then find its hexadecimal equivalent on
the
ASCII Chart
on the inside back cover. A setting of 00 specifies no delim-
iter character.
2. Go to
page 250 and scan the ENTER/EXIT PROGRAMMING MODE bar code
to enter Programming Mode.
3. Scan the bar code: SET SOURCE RADIO ADDRESS DELIMITER CHARACTER.
4. Scan the appropriate two digits from the keypad in
Appendix D, Keypad,
that represent the hexadecimal characters which were determined in the
st
eps above. You will hear a two-beep indication after the last character.
NOTE
If you make a mistake before the last character, scan the CANCEL bar code
to abort and not save the entry string. You can then start again at the
beginning.
5. Scan the ENTER/EXIT PROGRAMMING MODE bar code to exit.
