In the T6 command, the reader streams data as it comes in.

If your software isn't keeping up with him, eventually the serial buffer on the PC will fill up. When that happens, the reader pauses reading and will flash the LEDs to indicate that it's waiting for the host. If you empty the buffer, it should start up again and keep reading.  Maybe this is happening intermittently in your setup.

You can emulate this behavior in terraterm. 

Connect to the reader, issue a t6 with tags present. Then, close hyperterm while the reader is running. It should keep reading for a few seconds, then it will stop and go into flashing mode. If you reconnect the terminal program, data should start streaming again.
