Filtering/Data Extraction Configuration

RFID Reader Interface Type

Defines the expected RFID data format to be used while operating in the
RFID filtering mode. Each Reader Interface Type is unique and pertains to
the RFID reader manufacturer. If a different RFID reader is to be used and it
provides a similar format to any of the RFID readers listed below, it can also
be used in the RFID filtering mode.

Unspecified - The DeviceMaster UP will assume a HEX ASCII format and
will attempt to locate the antenna number.

Alien (Text Mode) - Specifies the Alien RFID reader Text Mode.

Alien (Terse Mode) - Specifies the Alien RFID reader Terse Mode.

Intermec (Hex ASCII Mode) - Specifies the Intermec reader returning data
in the Hex ASCII Mode.

See the

DeviceMaster UP Filtering and Data Extraction Reference Guide

for

further details.

Barcode Formats:

UPC/EAN Standard 12-14
Digit

UPD/EAN Eight Digit

Defines barcode format to be used for both standard and eight digit UPC
labels. The term “standard” refers to UPC-A, EAN-13, JAN, and EAN-14
barcodes which all have ten company/product digits.

The standard and eight digit formats are selected independently and each
operates independently. It is important to note that the barcode filtering/data
extraction will not function if no format is selected.

Filter Age Time (Time
filtered after last read)

Defines the time a filter string, RFID tag, or barcode will continue to be
filtered after the last time it was received.

If an entry is received before the Filter Age Time has passed, the entry is
filtered and the data will not be sent to the PLC and/or application. However,
if the Filter Age Time has passed, it will pass filtering and be sent to the PLC
and/or application.

Discard Unrecognized Data
Mode (RFID/Barcode)

Specifies what to do with unrecognized RFID or barcode data.

Off - Sends unrecognized data to the PLC and/or application.

To-PLC - Discards unrecognized data to the PLC. Allows sending of
unrecognized data to the application.

To-Application - Discards unrecognized data to the application. Allows
sending of unrecognized data to the PLC.

To-PLC/Application - Discards unrecognized data to both the PLC and
application.
