Chapter 2 — Create and Use RFID Applications
RFID Applications and the IP2L
The IP2L communicates with the computer through the Basic Reader
Interface (BRI) Server, which can be accessed in the Application
Connection screen within Intermec Settings. The BRI Server controls
the IP2L by issuing various BRI commands.
Use the RFID Resource Kit
The Intermec Developer Library RFID Resource Kits includes Java
and .NET tools you cna use to develop applications that control the
IP2L and data management.
The resource kit is available as part of the Intermec Developer Library
(IDL). To lear more about the RFID Resource Kit, go to
www.intermec.com > Products > Applications and Software >
Development Tools > Developer Resource Kits.
Create Applications for the IP2L
You must create an application for the IP2L before it can read and
write tags. Intermec recommends this general outline for developing
your RFID application:
•
Write your application on a development workstation (your
desktop PC).
•
Install and test the application on your computer.
If you do not have an application but want to verify that your IP2L
can read and write RFID tags, download the Intermec RFID Demo
application from the Intermec website.
1 Go to www.intermec.com > Products > RFID > Handheld
Readers > IP2L > the Downloads tab. The Download screen
appears.
2 Download and install the RFID Mobile Demo Kit onto your
mobile computer. For more information on how to install
applications, see the mobile computer user manual.

Dense Reader Mode
Allows the reader to hop between channels within
a certain frequency sectrum to prevent other
readers in the area form interfering with one
another.
This setting is equivalent to the
DENSEREADERMODE or DRM BRI attribute.
LBT Channel
Sets the default transmit channel of the available
ETSI 302-208 channels. When you enable LBT
scanning, the channel scan sequence starts with
this LBT channel. When you disable LBT scanning
(as in the 4 channel mode) the LBT channel is the
only channel used. The range for 10 chanel mode
is 4 to 13.
LBT Scan Enable
When LBT scanning is enabled, the algorithm
scans the available ETSI 302-208 channels for a
free transmit channel.
This setting is equivalent to the
LBTSCANENABLE BRI attribute.
Field Separator
Sets the space character to be used for separating
fields in tag data. Choose from space ( ), comma
(,), colon (:), semicolon (;), tab, caret (^), or tilde
(~). Default is space.
This setting is equivalent to the FIELDSEP BRI
attribute.

• For ISO tags, the tag identi fier corresponds to
TAGID.
• For EPC tags, the identifier corresponds to
EPCID.
This setting is equivalent to the IDREPORT BRI
attribute.
No Tag Report
Enables or disables a NOTAG message, which is
sent when no tags are found during execution of a
Read, Write, or Lock command.
This setting is equivalent to the NOTAGRPT BRI
attribute.
Report Timeout
Sets the timeout (in ms) for delays in tag reporting
when the RFID reader is in continuous read mode.
Timeout Mode
ID Tries
Sets the maximum number of times the reader
executes the identify algorithm before a response
is returned to a Read or Write command.
In practice, this is the number of times a tag ID
attempt is made for the antenna.
This setting is equivalent to the IDTRIES BRI
attribute.
Antenna Tries
Read Tries
Sets the maximum number of times the read
algorithm is executed before a response is
returned to a Read command.
In practice, this is the number of times an
identified tag is read until the Read is successful.
This setting is equivalent to the RDTRIES BRI
attribute.
Write Tries
Sets the maximum number of times the read
algorithm is executed before a response is
returned to a Write command.
In practice, this is the number of times an
identified tag is read until the Write is successful.

Sets the maximum number of times the reader
executes the identify algorithm before a response
is returned to a Read or Write command.
In practice, this is the number of times a tag ID
attempt is made for the antenna.
This setting is equivalent to the IDTRIES BRI
attribute.
Initial Q
(EPCglobal Class 1 Gen 2 tags only) Sets the
initial Q parameter value used by the Query
command.
Ifyou know there is only one tag in the field, set
this attribute to 0 for best performance.
This setting is equivalent to the INITIALQ BRI
attribute.
Field Strength dB
Sets the RF power level (in dBm) for each of the 4
antenna ports.
Use this setting to attenuate the antenna field
strength. In some situations, full output power
can cause unnecessary interference. For example,
if the tag is close to the antenna, full output power
might overload the tag and cause unreliable
behavior.
This setting is equivalent to the
FIELDSTRENGTH BRI attribute

Troubleshoot the IP2L
The following table may help you fix some common problems you
may experience while using the IP2L.
Note: If you send the IP2L or computer in for service, it is your
responsibility to save the computer data and its configuration.
Intermec is only responsible for ensuring that the hardware matches

The IP2L is unable to read RFID tags, or • Make sure you have connected onto the IP2L on the
computer. For help, see “Connect and Enable the

RFID Reader” on page 4.
inconsistently.
• Make sure you have enabled the IP2L. .
• The IP2L uses a linear antenna. It can only read a
tag’s antenna which is oriented in the same way as
the IP2L antenna. A tag’s antenna is oriented the
same as the IP2L antenna if the tag element is
parallel to the front edge of the IP30 antenna.
• Move slightly closer or farther from the tag.
Environmental factors can reduce the read range or
create dead spots.
• Make sure there are no metal objects or other objects
on or near the antenna. Large rings or hand jewelery
can affect the performance of the IP2L.
• Make sure the computer is working properly. The
IP2L will not work well if there are too many
applications running in the battery.
• Make sure the computer battery is not low, it may
affect the performance of the IP2L.
The IP2L does not respond to your
RFID application.
• Make sure your application is communicating with
the IP2L, the BRI server on your computer, or both.
• You may need to change BRI server settings to
communicate with your application. For help, see
