Do not use a printer embedded with this product near medical equipment.  Radio wave emitted from this product may affect the operation of medical equipment, such as an implanted cardiac pacemaker and implantable cardioverter-defibrillator.   If a use of this product should be likely to have affected medical equipment, immediately turn off the product and contact your TOSHIBA TEC sales agent.   Keep a printer embedded with this product at least 23cm away from a person with an implanted cardiac pacemaker or implantable cardioverter-defibrillator.     2. Do not export a printer embedded with this product to the countries or areas where a use of this product is notallowed, without permission.    Doing so is against the law, and you may be punished.     When exporting this product, check the laws and regulations of a destination country and take necessaryprocedures.  3.  Follow all manual instructions.    Failure to do so could create safety hazards such as fire or electrocution. •  Manual instructions must be followed when installing option kits or adding cables to avoid system failures and to insure proper performance and operation.   •  Failure to follow manual instructions or any unauthorized modifications, substitution or change to this product will void the limited product warranty.   4.  Turn the power OFF and disconnect the power cord before installing the RFID module. 5.  Be careful not to pinch your fingers or hands with the covers. 6.  The print head and stepping motor becomes very hot immediately after printing.    Do not touch the print head, stepping motor and around it right after printing, or you may get burned.   7.  When opening the top cover, it must be fully opened.    Failure to do this may cause the top cover to close under its own weight, resulting in an injury. WARNING! CAUTION! Be careful not to damage the pattern of the Antenna Ass’y or peel off the Shield Sheet.  Damaged pattern or removed Shield Sheet may affect the ability to read or write RFID tags.

 EO2-38058 23/24 5  AGC THRESHOLD SETTING The B-SX704-RFID-U2-US-R chooses a tag to write data on according to a radio intensity of RFID tags (AGC value).       An AGC threshold value has been set to 0 (00h) as factory default, but it may be necessary to change this value according to the tag type to be used.   When the factory default threshold value is not proper for the tag type used, follow the procedure below to configure the following settings.   As the changes are stored in the internal memory, they are retained after the printer power is turned off and on again.   When the tag type is changed or data write cannot be operated properly, perform the setting again.   Step 1.  Load an RFID tag embedded media in the printer.   Step 2.  Follow the procedure below to measure the radio intensity of the tags.   1)  Place the media so that an RFID tag (IC chip) is positioned above the Antenna, and close the Top Cover.   Note:  If an RFID tag is not positioned above the Antenna while the Print Head is at a print start position, use @003 command to adjust the media position so that an RFID tag is positioned above the Antenna.  For detail of the command, refer to the External Equipment Interface Specification (Printer Command Manual).   2)  Start the printer in the system mode and perform a read test to measure the AGC value.   To measure the AGC value, place only one RFID tag on the Antenna.                                     Example RFID TagRead test menu is displayed.

Set a value which is lower than the AGC value obtained by a read test by 1 or 2, taking variation of RFID tags in performance into consideration.
