Running the CAM Test for ATA-Type Tags
1. From the Main menu, select Options, then Sound. Click On.
2. From the Main menu, select Tag Requests. Select ATA Read. This operating
mode causes the ATA tag to cause the host PC to emit an audible click after
every read transaction.
3. From the ATA Tag Read Request screen, then in Execution Mode select
Continuous.
4. Leave all other setting at defaults. Select Run.
The IT2200 system is ready to read only single-mode or multimode ATA-type
tags.
Tag-on-a-Stick Test Using ATA-Type Tag
Note: TransCore recommends that two people accomplish this procedure. If only one
person is available, you can use the Beeper Box for the IT2200 Reader System (see
product description in “Optional Equipment” on page 5-4 for more information).
1. Replace the IT2235 Tag with an ATA-type tag. Place the IT2235 Tag in an ESD
bag.
2. Mount the ATA-type tag on the stick or rubber or plastic spatula using Velcro or a
rubber band.
3. Hold the tag on the stick with the long side horizontal.
4. Move the tag around the desired read/write zone, and watch the engineering
host screen for a tag read indication (tag ID appears on the screen) and listen
for an audible click from the host PC when the ATA tag is read.
Vehicle-Mounted Tag Test Using IT2235 Tag
Note: For the vehicle mounted tag test, you must mark the tag, not vehicle, location at
the point where the tag starts and stops beeping.
1. Mount an IT2235 Tag on the inside of the vehicle’s windshield. The tag must be
at least 5 cm (2 in) from the windshield frame or rear view mirror post, and it
must be below the tint line at the top of the windshield.
2. Drive the car at a speed of about 8 to 16 km/h (5 to 10 mph) through the center
of the lane.
3. Use a piece of masking tape on the road or curb to mark the location in the
lane where the tag starts to beep.
