The barcode reader configurations depend on the scan engine(s) installed. You can

tell which reader is currently in use and make necessary changes on the General

tab.

BARCODE READER DESCRIPTION

CCD/Laser

Reader

If enabled, tap the [Barcode Reader] button to configure the

reader settings for CCD or Laser scan engine.

Refer to the Reader Settings Table in Appendix II – CCD/Laser

Scan Engine.

2D Reader The 2D scan engine is capable of reading linear and 2D

barcodes.

If enabled, tap the [Barcode Reader] button to configure the

reader settings for 2D scan engine.

Refer to the Reader Settings Table in Appendix III – 2D Scan

Engine.

4.3.2 RFID READER SETTINGS

If the RFID scan engine is present, configurable options will be displayed.

Note: Because it is possible to read barcode and RFID tag at the same time, it is

recommended that only one scan engine is enabled at a time to prevent

from misreading.

Some RFID tags support both read/write operations, on a page-by-page basis. You

may find it necessary to define your own read/write operation. For reference only,

the table below lists the start page for read/write operation on a number of RFID

tags.

START PAGE TAG TYPE

0Others (ISO 15693)

5ICODE (Phillips)

Note: Please refer to the specifications of your RFID tags for memory organization.

READ OPERATION

By default, the RFID tag is read from byte 0 of the default page. However, the default

page, amount of bytes and number of pages of each tag may be different. Specify

how many bytes of data you want to read from the tag.

Generally, the read data is user data obtained from the user block. If you are sure

that the data is to be read from a non-user block, such as the lock block, you need

to select the check box of [Display hex values] first.

WRITE OPERATION

Type the string that you want to write to a tag. By default, the string is written to the

tag from byte 0 of the default page. However, the default page, amount of bytes

and number of pages of each tag may be different. Therefore, the input string will

automatically be truncated to fit into pages, and data may be discarded when it

comes to the end of pages available.

Generally, it will write the input string to the user block, which is free for custom use.

The string will be displayed as “user data”. If you wish to write the string to a non-user

block, such as the lock block, you need to select the check box of [Use hex values]

first.

Once you have selected to use hex values for the string, make sure the string length

must be even. For example, if you want to write 0x0A, 0x0B and 0x00 to a tag, the

string you input must be “0A0B00” instead of “AB0”.
