the reader continuously reads the tags, first reading the A flags, and then reading
the B flags. Notice in the above image that one of the tag entries is a pinkish color.

change the Search Mode to Single Target with Suppression, the reader reads
each tag only once. All five entries would quickly turn red and stay red as shown
