BizTalk RFID Rule: Antenna Noise Level Is High.

Knowledge Base article:

Summary

This occurs because the noise on a source antenna becomes too high to reliably be able to differentiate data from noise. The source might not be able to process tags properly.

Causes

Not Available

Resolutions

Check tweak the NoiseThreshold property in the RF property group, or the RSSICutOff property in the TagRead property group. This might also require manual adjustment of the source.
