123RFID Desktop Advanced Settings

Antenna Singulation

To configure the antenna singulation using Operating Mode the session field under query can be used. If the same singulation is desired on all the antennas, the operating mode can be set as follows

IoT Connector Operating Mode to set the same singulation on all antennas
 {
     "type": "CUSTOM",
     "query": {
         "session": "S0"
     }
 }

To Configure different antenna singulation on each antenna, first the antennas to be used for reading tags must be specified using the antennas field and then the singulation can be specified for each selected antenna.

IoT Connector Operating Mode to set different singulation on each antenna of a 4 port reader
 {
     "type": "CUSTOM",
     "antennas": [1, 2, 3, 4],
     "query": [
         {
             "session": "S0"
         },
         {
             "session": "S1"
         },
         {
             "session": "S2"
         },
         {
             "session": "S3"
         }
     ]
 }

The above operating mode specifies that antennas 1,2,3,4 of the 4 port reader is to be used for reading tags and the corresponding singulation are to be set to s0, s1, s2, s3 respectively.

Important

The singulation is matched with the corresponding antenna in the antennas array. The length of the array for antennas must be same as the length of the array in query.

State Aware

To configure the antenna State Aware parameters using Operating Mode the sel and target fields under query can be used. If the same State Aware parameters are desired on all the antennas, the operating mode can be set as follows

IoT Connector Operating Mode to set the same State Aware parameters on all antennas
 {
     "type": "CUSTOM",
     "query": {
         "sel": "ALL",
         "target": "A"
     }
 }

To Configure different antenna State Aware parameters on each antenna, first the antennas to be used for reading tags must be specified using the antennas field and then the State Aware parameters can be specified for each selected antenna.

IoT Connector Operating Mode to set different State Aware parameters on each antenna of a 4 port reader
 {
     "type": "CUSTOM",
     "antennas": [1, 2, 3, 4],
     "query": [
         {
             "sel": "NOT_SL",
             "target": "A"
         },
         {
             "sel": "ALL",
             "target": "B"
         },
         {
             "sel": "SL",
             "target": "AB"
         },
         {
             "sel": "ALL",
             "target": "AB"
         }
     ]
 }

The above operating mode specifies that antennas 1,2,3,4 of the 4 port reader is to be used for reading tags and the corresponding State Aware parameters are to be set to NOT_SL/A, ALL/B, SL/AB, ALL/AB respectively.

Important

The State Aware parameters are matched with the corresponding antenna in the antennas array. The length of the array for antennas must be same as the length of the array in query.

Tag Population Estimate

To configure the antenna Tag population using Operating Mode the tagPopulation field under query can be used. If the same Tag Population is desired on all the antennas, the operating mode can be set as follows

IoT Connector Operating Mode to set the same Tag Population on all antennas
 {
     "type": "CUSTOM",
     "query": {
         "tagPopulation": 100
     }
 }

To Configure different antenna Tag population on each antenna, first the antennas to be used for reading tags must be specified using the antennas field and then the singulation can be specified for each selected antenna.

IoT Connector Operating Mode to set different tagPopulation on each antenna of a 4 port reader
 {
     "type": "CUSTOM",
     "antennas": [1, 2, 3, 4],
     "query": [
         {
             "tagPopulation": 50
         },
         {
             "tagPopulation": 100
         },
         {
             "tagPopulation": 150
         },
         {
             "tagPopulation": 200
         }
     ]
 }

The above operating mode specifies that antennas 1,2,3,4 of the 4 port reader is to be used for reading tags and the corresponding tagPopulation are to be set to 50, 100, 150, 200 respectively.

Important

The tagPopulation is matched with the corresponding antenna in the antennas array. The length of the array for antennas must be same as the length of the array in query.

RSSI Filter

To configure the antenna RSSI Filter using Operating Mode the rssiFilter field can be used.

If set, Tag with RSSI below threshold will not be inventoried by the radio. If absent, RSSI filter is not used. Note: Currently ONLY supported by the FX9600.

To set the RSSI Filter desired on all the antennas, the operating mode can be set as follows.

IoT Connector Operating Mode to set the RSSI Filter on all antennas
 {
     "type": "CUSTOM",
     "rssiFilter": {
         "threshold": -65
     }
 }

RSSI Filter range can be from -100 dBm to -20 dBm.
