This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital
device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide
reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This
equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed
and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio
communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a
particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or
television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the
user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one of the following measures:
- Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
- Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
- Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver

- Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
C AU TI O N
Any changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for
compliance could void the user's authority to operate this equipment.
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following
two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device
AWID PROPRIETARY
must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired
operation.
Radiation Exposure Statement:
The product complies with the FCC portable RF exposure limit set forth for an
uncontrolled environment and is safe for intended operation as described in this manual.
Further RF exposure reduction can be achieved if the product can be kept as far as

1 Introduction
AWID's HB-2000 is a handheld terminal supporting multi-protocol operations. Designed
for convenience, mobility and greater flexibility, the HB-2000, via Bluetooth connection,
can be operated with a PDA, a Smartphone or a PC/Notebook, to receive and transmit
data of RFID labels.
Equipped with a circular polarized antenna, the HB2000 is optimized to deliver up to 5
feet RFID tag read distance with only ½ Watt RF output power. With communication
options include Bluetooth Class2, LED and Trigger it provides flexibility for transmitting
data to enterprise data management systems.

3 Setting Up HB-2000
This section describes the main components constituting HB-2000 and their functionality.
Parts List
Verify that all items listed below are present:



HB-2000 Terminal
Power Supply
Battery
3.1
HB-2000 Terminal
The HB-2000 terminal is embedded with an UHF RFID module, UHF antenna, battery
and external (left and right) triggers, buzzer sound outlet and LED status indicators.
AWID PROPRIETARY
3.2 Scanner Triggers
Located on left and right sides of the terminal for user to press for reading RFID tags,
release to stop reading.
1) Press either the left or right trigger to send command reading RFID tags, release the
(depressed) trigger to send the stop command.
2) Simultaneously press both left and right triggers for more than 2 seconds puts HB2000 in sleep mode.
3) With HB-2000 in sleep mode, simultaneously press both left and right triggers for more
than 2 seconds places HB-2000 in stand-by mode: both RFID module and Bluetooth
stay off.
AWID PROPRIETARY
4) To conserve energy, with Bluetooth connected, hold either the left or right trigger for
an extended time period will shut off RFID, the green LED goes off (Bluetooth
connection still intact).
5) With Bluetooth connected, if RFID is off (dimmed green LED), pressing either trigger
once will turn on RFID (green LED lights up).

3.7 Buzzer
 A longish sound is made to alert user when either of the following occurs:
1. from sleep to ready
2. from ready to sleep
 A shorter sound is made when an RFID tag is read. It can be muted by
administering the setting through the connecting PC, tablet or Smartphone by
sending a command to HB-2000.

5 Bluetooth Module and Connectivity
 Connection Settings: 57600,8,N,1
 Version: Bluetooth Class 2 or better
 Bluetooth Module Function: Data exchange with PC, tablet or Smartphone via
Bluetooth after are successful pairing.
 Pairing Success: Once paired successfully, the Bluetooth Module shuts down
its search mode. In other words, it no longer broadcasts and looks for other
devices, even after disconnect it won't resume in search mode. The Bluetooth
Module remembers the connected device from the most recent successful
pairing.
Unless the HB-2000 is reset resulting in a re-paring, the Bluetooth Module will
not accept a pairing request from another device. Even after a power reset
(e.g., due to battery replacement), the module still remembers the most recent
successfully paired-up device.
 Bluetooth Module provides a "connected/disconnected" status indicator.
 Bluetooth Module provides a "successful pairing" status indicator.

6 Pairing HB-2000 with a PC
6.1
Add Bluetooth Device HB-2000
Clicking the Bluetooth icon on PC1, without any Bluetooth device paired an empty
window2 is displayed as shown below.
Figure 1 Initial Bluetooth Devices Window
6.2
Searching HB-2000
Click the "Add a device" button launches a search to identify Bluetooth device
candidates. An example result window is shown in Figure 2 where an HB-2000 is
listed.
Either with built-in Bluetooth functionality or through use of a Bluetooth Dongle.
Depending on Bluetooth utilities in use, the interface (windows) may look quite different.

A serial communication between computer and HB-2000 can then be established
through the displayed COM port at 57600 bps, the HB-2000 then basically
functions like a fixed-location RFID reader.
