    in the field of view of the antenna.
  5. Set Antenna Cable Compensation values:
    1. Specify the cable loss in terms of dB per 100 feet for the antenna cable used to connect the antenna port to the antenna.
    2. Specify the cable length in feet of the cable used to connect this antenna port to the antenna.
      Setting a non-zero cable loss compensation value enables the reader to automatically increase the transmit power on this antenna port equivalent to the loss value specified. Setting an inappropriate value of cable loss can break the regulatory setting and is illegal.
    3. Press Enter after entering the value in the textbox to set the cable loss compensation value.
    Setting the cable loss compensation value requires restarting the reader server. The default antenna settings are applied after setting the cable loss compensation value. Accessing cable compensation values requires logging in to the reader.
  6. For the RFD40 and RFD90, specify the maximum storage size to allocate for a tag EPC ID.
