Hi,

Please don't hijack threads - this is a different discussion so a different
thread :)

I can give you a quick answer. We scan a *lot* of tags, and also noticed a
small set of NfcB/ISO-DEP cards that are a little tricky. You have to orient
the antennas in just the right alignment, and it can take a couple of
seconds. I asked our vendor and they explained that some NfcB cards are
designed to work with limited RF sensitivity, since they are designed to
work with fixed reader/writer infrastructure that has larger antennas and
higher power.

There is no way to adjust the power.

I think you will find any NFC Forum tags will work fine however.

Cheers,
Nick
