If data write to RFID tags cannot be properly performed, refer to Section 5. 22/24 EO2-38058 5 AGC THRESHOLD SETTING The B-SX704-RFID-U2-US-R chooses a tag to write data on according to a radio intensity of RFID tags (AGC value). An AGC threshold value has been set to 0 (00h) as factory default, but it may be necessary to change this value according to the tag type to be used. When the factory default threshold value is not proper for the tag type used, follow the procedure below to configure the following settings. As the changes are stored in the internal memory, they are retained after the printer power is turned off and on again. When the tag type is changed or data write cannot be operated properly, perform the setting again. Step 1. Load an RFID tag embedded media in the printer. Step 2. Follow the procedure below to measure the radio intensity of the tags. 1) Place the media so that an RFID tag (IC chip) is positioned above the Antenna, and close the Top Cover. Note: If an RFID tag is not positioned above the Antenna while the Print Head is at a print start position, use
@003 command to adjust the media position so that an RFID tag is positioned above the Antenna. For detail of the command, refer to the External Equipment Interface Specification (Printer Command Manual). 2 Start the printer in the system mode and perform a read test to measure the AGC value. Example To measure the AGC value, place only one RFID tag on the Antenna. RFID Tag Turn the printer on while holding down the
