Hi Jin,

Here is an example how to enable antennas 1, 2, 7, 8 and disable other. It sets antenna selection also to auto mode.

struct NUR_MODULESETUP setup;

setup.selectedAntenna = NUR_ANTENNAID_AUTOSELECT;

setup.antennaMaskEx = NUR_ANTENNAMASK_1 | NUR_ANTENNAMASK_2 | NUR_ANTENNAMASK_7 | NUR_ANTENNAMASK_8;

error = NurApiSetModuleSetup(hApi, NUR_SETUP_ANTMASKEX | NUR_SETUP_SELECTEDANT, &setup, sizeof(setup));

if (error != NUR_NO_ERROR)

      return; // Handle error..

Hi Turo,

 

I need to get some advice from you regarding configure antennas in an application. I would like to set 9 antennas for reading and turn off the remaining antennas (for AR52).

 

Currently I'm using the sample application from the C documentation. See image below:

 

I found out the value of NUR_MAX_ANTENNAS_EX is 32. May I know it's correct if I set it to 9 for my requirement? For your information, I suspect my reader will always set the active antenna to 1 during boot up. Thus, the reading become invalid/weak. After I found out the issue I've to configure the antennas I required from RFID Configurator. I would like to set up the active antennas in the application main function.

 

 

 

 

Regards,

Jin

Oh, I forgot. Inventory stream stops automatically every 20 seconds, so you have to restart it if inventoryStream->stopped = TRUE

Hi Jin,

 

You have to use antennaMaskEx instead of antennaMask. See:

https://github.com/NordicID/nur_sdk/blob/master/include/NurAPI.h#L601

https://github.com/NordicID/nur_sdk/blob/master/include/NurAPIConstants.h#L616

 

From here you can find the latest SDK:

Thanks Turo,

We manage to setup the region and TX level from Raspberry Pi.

I've another request.

I've just started to program AR52 in Raspberry Pi as well. I've modify the nurcon app to do continuous read. I notice the modified nurcon app will hang after a certain period. I only connect up to 10 antennas. The remain 6 antennas port are not connected.

Do you have a sample code for continuous read?

Thanks.

Hi Jin,

 

It's as simple as the following:

 

      struct NUR_MODULESETUP moduleSetup;

      NurApiGetModuleSetup(hApi, NUR_SETUP_ALL, &moduleSetup, sizeof(moduleSetup));

      moduleSetup.txLevel = 0;

      moduleSetup.regionId = NUR_REGIONID_EU;

      NurApiSetModuleSetup(hApi, NUR_SETUP_ALL, &moduleSetup, sizeof(moduleSetup));

 

Here are some samples for you:

Hi Support,

May I know is there a sample source code to set region and power for Sampo S1. I'm coding in C for Raspberry PI.

Thanks,
