●If the type of Tags used and the chip operating mode setting do not match, the Reader/Writer will not
respond to the Tags. The No Tag Error （code: 72） results.
●Specifying the commands or functions unavailable in the specified Chip Operation Mode will result in
a Format Error (code: 14).
●The communication test in Offline Mode is performed with the EAS on the Tags enabled. The
communication by the EAS function takes longer compared to Read/Write operations performed by
other functions. The communication distance in the Online Mode should be checked using the actual
commands.

This Reader/Writer has two Chip-Operating Modes for different types of
Tags (and its IC Chips.) You have to set either of the Chip Operating
Modes in accordance with the Tag you choose. The functions or command
types/formats vary, depending on the Chip Operating Mode. The factory
default is ISO Mode (I.CODE 1 Mode for Ver1.10 and lower).
The mode is set by the Chip Operating Mode Switch Command (TY).

The Reader/Writer operates in either Online Mode, in which commands
are given by the host, or in Offline Mode, in which the EAS function (refer
to SECTION 3-7) performs the configuration, when the host is
disconnected and the communication test between the antenna, the
Reader/Writer and the Tags.
The factory default is set to Offline mode. To change the mode to the
Online Mode, connect the host and execute the Stop Command (ST). To
always start the Reader/Writer in the Online Mode, the default mode is
disabled using the Offline Mode Setting Command (FL).
When the Reader/Writer is turned on in Online Mode, it remains in a
stand-by state, until commands from the host are received.
In the Offline Mode, the Reader/Writer starts detecting the EAS-enabled
Tags (the EAS function mounted on the Tags is not disabled) from the
moment it is turned on in this mode the COMM LED remains flashing. At
the entrance of an EAS-enabled Tag into the antenna communication
area, the external output turns ON for the specified time. The OUT1 LED
light indicates normal communication between the Reader/Writer and
the Tags .
To check the communication status in the Offline Mode, the EAS on the
Tags must be enabled in advance.
