The individual items identified/read by a RFID reader contain a tag (also known as an electronic label or transponder). Unlike barcodes that must be read by a beam passing over the barcode, RFID tags do not have to be in the line of sight of the reader before the reader can collect the data from the tag but they do need to be within the established reading range of the RFID-module. See the “RX2 Reference Guide” for further information and configuration. RFID Reader Scan Range Type of Tag Scan Range Class 0 Tag 9.8 feet / 3.0 meters Class 1 Tag 9.8 feet / 3.0 meters Gen2 Tag 9.8 feet / 3.0 meters Figure 3 RFID Tag Reading Ranges Unlike barcode scanners that require line-of-sight before successfully reading a barcode, the RFID reader does not require line-of-sight when searching for and reading tags. The range of the RFID reader is dependent on many outside influences including the tag construction and orientation. RFID Tag Data Collection Generally, when the RX2 is on, the RFID reader is ready for use. • While the RX2 is booting, the Power LED is lit solid. The RFID reader is not available until the Power LED beings flashing and all drivers have finished loading. • Please consult your system administrator for application details. Although the reader is ready for use, the application may not yet have enabled the reader. • If the battery charger is connected to the RX2, the RX2 remains Off, even if the power switch is in the On position. The reader supports Class 0 (read only) and Class 1 (read and write) tags as well as Class 1 Gen2 (read and write) tags. The RFID information is relayed to the network via the 802.11 radio in the RX2. transmission is application specific. Please refer to your system administrator for details.

Use the battery charger to charge the RX2’s internal battery. The RX2 battery charger charges the RX2 battery pack in less than 6 hours. It is recommended the internal battery pack be fully charged before installing the RX2. The battery charger uses an adapter cable. One end of the cable has a “break away” quick disconnect connection to reduce the chance of damage if the forklift is moved before the battery charger is disconnected. The other end of the cable attaches to the RX2. Once fully charged, the internal RX2 battery pack powers the RX2 for nine hours under normal conditions including an RFID reader scan every two seconds. The RX2 provides a low battery warning as follows: • The power LED flashes red (or is solid red while the RX2 is booting) • The low battery buzzer sounds • A low battery signal can be sent via the radio card to the network host (please refer to your system administrator for details). When the low battery warning is displayed, there is approximately 30 minutes of power left in the battery. If the battery is not recharged before it is depleted, the RX2 automatically shuts down. The RFID reader remains functional until the battery can no longer power the RX2.
