Frequency Agility
In exceptionally noisy environments or in case of a high concentration of 
radio devices, Star system performance may be improved by configuring 
Frequency Agility. Frequency Agility parameters change the way the radio 
frequencies are used in a Star communication system. 
As when changing the System Speed, use the following procedure:
1. Link the PM9501-AR with a BC9xxx Base. 
2. With the PM9501-AR, read one of the “Frequency Agility” programming 
la
bels below.
3. Place the PM9501-AR into the BC9xxx. 
Reader and Base will then be linked and the new frequencies handling will 
be
 operational.

The channel is changed automatically
it is possible to select a fixed channel with a frequency different 
from the default; please contact Datalogic Technical Support for 
information about this feature. 
For the 910 models, the radio range can change depending on the 
Frequency Agility parameter value; in particular, at low speed, the 
radio range is shorter when a fixed channel is programmed. See 
the Radio Range values in 
"Radio Features" 
on page 316 of 
Technical Specifications.
The frequency agility features are not equally supported for all model 
speeds. Please refer to the following table:
