The .ft FindTag Command of the Technology Solutions UK Ltd ASCII 2 Protocol

(.ft) ASCII command to perform find a transponder by EPC. Performs/configures find transponder using the reader. When armed, use the trigger to start/stop finding and double-click to disarm. RP: response is scaled across min/max RSSI seen.

Remarks

When started the primary trigger action is replaced by find tag. The find tag command will be executed while the trigger is held

When stopped the primary trigger action is restore to its configured value.

Property Value

int

Remarks

This value does not need to be initialized. If the value is not set it will assume the value from Current

OutputPower
