Lock Attempts

The number of times the interrogator tries to lock the RFID tag in the RF
Field. When a tag is locked, the data cannot be reprogrammed. See
“Using Option 63,” for more information.

If the interrogator fails to lock the RFID tag, an RFID error is generated.
See “RFID Errors” for more information. When an RFID error is
generated, you may want to print an overstrike pattern. See “Setting the
Error Action” for more information.

If the RFID tag is locked on the first try, the module proceeds to the next
step in the cycle. If not, the module attempts to lock the tag up to the
Lock Attempts setting. The range is one to five, with a default setting of
three. Maximum throughput results when tags are locked on the first try.

To change the setting, from the Main Menu, select Setup, then RFID.
