Lights up Green
microSD card inserted and ready for operation.
In this state, the device can either write data to the card or
read data from the card.
If the LED lights up, however, this does not indicate that
the device is actually accessing the card.
Lights up Red
microSD card inserted, but cannot be read or is defective.
Lights up Yellow
The use of the microSD card in connection with a device
function has been manually configured via the “SD card
required” tab in SOPAS ET.
The card is not operational, however.

Optical “process feedback” status indicator
The process feedback status indicator uses a single LED that is located in the middle of
the antenna cover.
The behavior of the indicator (color, brightness, activation condition) can be configured
by the user.
The user can select from the following activation conditions:
•
Successful transponder handling process. The process consists of: trigger and
subsequent read, if applicable also writing of transponder data.
•
External SOPAS ET command, script
•
A pre-defined or user-defined evaluation condition has occurred.
NOTE
Select the activation condition and brightness using a configuration tool, for example
the SOPAS ET configuration software. This indicator can also be deactivated.
Operating mode: Quickstart
This operating mode for detecting transponders in the UHF field is intended for demon‐
stration purposes and for getting familiar with the operation of the device. In this mode,
the device automatically generates continuous read cycles. Contrary to normal read
operation (targeted read cycle triggering), the status indicator provides continuous feed‐
back on the success of the transponder detection.
