4. Press and release the barcode scanner button on the top of the unit or press and release
the B button on the front of the Tablet PC. Ensure that the scan beam covers the entire
barcode.
If the scan was successful, the data will appear in the application and you will hear a chime
sound as confirmation.
Barcode scanner tips
• You will typically get the best scans if the lens is six to seven inches from the barcode.
• If you’re having trouble scanning a barcode, use two hands to steady the tablet while
you scan.
Using the RFID reader
Your Tablet PC may include an integrated 13.56 MHz RFID reader that you can use to
retrieve information from RFID tags.
RFID tags use radio frequency (RF) transmissions to identify a product, animal, or person.
RFID doesn’t 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
To use the RFID reader:
1. Hold the unit by the handle with the right edge in front of you.
