ID Separation
The host can select a unique ID separation of one ID or two IDs. The reader default
operation is for a unique ID separation of one ID and a uniqueness timeout of
two minutes. You can disable the uniqueness check using command #40 Transmit All
ID Codes. In this case, every tag ID received is transmitted without regard to unique-
ness. You can reinstate uniqueness checking with commands #4100 or #4101 Select
