Commands
The IS1001 reader commands are made up of three or more characters followed by a carriage
return, as illustrated in the following example:
Generally, the first three letters designate the command group and the remaining letters/digits
designate the command parameters. The commands are not case sensitive. The backspace key
can be used to correct an improper command. The responses to the commands confirming the
requested action or setting parameter change are sent to all available ports (unless the CML0
command has been issued, in which case responses will not be sent to the local USB port).
The following table is a list of the available commands:

Used to display the list of available commands.
Note: The response is sent only to the port from which the list of
commands was requested.
Set Antenna Current Low Alarm Threshold in Amperes
Used to set the low antenna current alarm threshold. Valid values
are 0.0 (disabled), 0.1 – 9.0 Amperes peak-to-peak. Default is 1.0A.
An Antenna Current Low alarm will be issued if the current in the
IS1001 reader's antenna drops below the specified value. A low
antenna current may be caused by an out-of-tune antenna, a
damaged antenna, or a bad antenna connection.
Set Noise High Alarm Threshold Percent
Used to set the excessive noise level alarm threshold. Valid values
are 0 (disabled), 1 – 100%. Default is 20%.
A Noise High alarm will be issued if the noise level exceeds the
specified level. A high noise level may indicate a tuning or
connection problem.
Set Tuning Capacitance High Alarm Threshold
Used to set the tuning capacitance high alarm threshold. If an
IS1001 reader's tuning capacitance value becomes equal to or
greater than this limit, an alarm will be sent. Valid values are 512 –
1023. Default is 970.
Set Tuning Capacitance Low Alarm Threshold
Used to set the tuning capacitance low alarm threshold. If an
IS1001 reader's tuning capacitance value becomes equal to or less
than this limit, an alarm will be sent. Valid values are 0 – 511. Default
is 50.
