Section 2 Functions
Error Logs
The Reader/Writer manages errors that occur during operation in logs. The error logs are saved until
the power supply to the Reader/Writer is turned OFF. You can read the error logs by sending
commands from the host device or by using a browser.
The following logs are saved.
System Error Log
Each record in the system error log consists of 16 bytes in the format that is shown in the following
table. Up to eight records are recorded. To read the system error log, either send a GET SYSTEM
ERROR LOG command or read it from a browser.
Refer to Error Codes in Section 5 Host Communications Specifications for detailed information on error codes, attached
information 1, and attached information 2.
p.112
Command Error Log
Each record consists of 16 bytes in the format that is shown in the following table. Up to 16 records are
recorded. To read the command error log, either send a GET COMMAND ERROR LOG command or
read it from a browser.
Errors that occur during RF Tag communications from a browser are not recorded in the command error log. Only errors
that occur in command execution for tag data links are recorded.
Refer to Error Codes, Device Information, and Communications Diagnostics Results in Section 5 Host Communications
Specifications for detailed information on error codes, response information 1, and response information 2.
