Communications
FIFO Communications Designations (FT/FR)
The ID Controller communicates in turn with each of the Tags entering the Antenna's communications
area. Because all further processing with the Tag is prohibited after communicating, the ID Controller
can only communicate with each new Tag that enters the Antenna's communications area.
If two or more Tags enter the Antenna's communications area at the same time, an error will result.
If a Tag whose access is prohibited leaves the Antenna's communications area, it becomes once again
capable of communicating.
FIFO Trigger Designation (FT)
After communicating with a Tag, access to that Tag is prohibited and the ID Controller sends a
response to the host device and then waits for another command.
FIFO Repeat Designation (FR)
The operation of the FIFO trigger designation (FT) is repeated.
Note: FIFO communications designations (FT/FR) cannot be used for communicating with V680-
D1KP@@ Tags.
