6.3.3
The "Settings - Read points" menu item
In the "Settings - Read points" menu, up to four logical read points can be defined depending
on the reader type. A logical read point is, for example, an incoming goods gate in logistics
or a machine infeed on a production line. A read point, on the other hand, can be assigned
one or more antennas required to cover the identification area of the read point.
The settings are structured identically for each read point and divided into the following 6
areas:
● Read point name
● Assigned antennas
● Algorithms
● Tag fields
● Filters
● Trigger
Note
Parallel operation of read points
Note that simultaneous read/write/inventory access to multiple read points leads to delays.
The length of the delay depends on the time required for the command and the number of
commands.
The icon in the Read point tab shows how many antennas are assigned to the particular
read point.
