RFID tags use radio frequency (RF) transmissions to identify a product, animal, or person.
RFID does not require direct contact or line-of-sight scanning, and can be scanned through
many materials, including clothing. An RFID tag can store much more data than a typical
barcode, and some RFID tags can both transmit and record data. RFID can be used for asset
tracking, identification, process control, healthcare, and pharmaceutical applications.
The RFID reader supports the following formats:
•
ISO/IEC 14443A/B
•
ISO/IEC 15693
•
ISO/IEC 18000-3
•
MIFARE Classic (available on the F5v Tablet PC with a touchscreen display)
To use the RFID reader
1. Hold the unit by the handle with the right edge in front of you.
2. Aim the right edge of the unit at the RFID tag. Ensure that the tag is 1–1.5 inches (25–40
mm) from the RFID antenna scan area.
