What is the read-cycle of the S2000 Reader?
The S2000’s complete read cycle is made up of: [Sync-time + Charge-time + Response-time + Housekeeping-time + Delay] Synch-time depends on how the reader’s synchronization is configured; the Charge-time is configurable (default is 50 ms); the Response time is typically 17 ms but will vary slightly depending on the number of ‘1’s versus the number of ‘0’s in the response; the Housekeeping-time is typically 3 ms but slightly longer whenever a tag is read; and the Delay is by default 0 ms but again is configurable. Wireless Synchronized (Default). In this mode the Synch-time is variable and changes between 1 ms and 70 ms. It is typically: [20 ms + 50 ms + 17 ms + 4 ms + 0 ms] = 91 ms] But in environments where noise might be interpreted as another reader: [70 ms + 50 ms + 17 ms + 4 ms + 0 ms] = 151 ms Master/Slave synchronization (Without acknowledgement). In this mode the Sync-time is zero and represents the fastest reading cycle.
