MTI RFID ME User Manual Federal Communication Commission Interference Statement 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 must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation. 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 is connected. - Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help. FCC Caution: Any changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user's authority to operate this equipment. This transmitter must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter. - 2 - Jul 9, 2014 MTI RFID ME User Manual Radiation Exposure Statement: The product comply with the FCC portable RF exposure limit set forth for an uncontrolled environment and are safe for intended operation as described in this manual. The further RF exposure reduction can be achieved if the product can be kept as far as possible from the user body or set the device to lower output power if such function is available. The USB dongle transmitter is approved for use in typical laptop computers. To comply with FCC RF exposure requirements, it should not be used in other devices or certain laptop and tablet computer configurations where the USB connectors on the host computer are unable to provide or ensure the necessary operating configurations intended for the device and its users or bystanders to satisfy RF exposure compliance requirements. - 3 - Jul 9, 2014 MTI RFID ME User Manual No part of this publication may be reproduced or used in any form, or by any electrical or mechanical means, without permission in writing from Microelectronics Technology, Inc.

Troubleshooting/ FAQs 6.1. Initial Setup/ Software If the software fails to install as shown in Figure 28, repeat the installation process over again, first uninstall the prior MTI RFID ME installation, and then re-install again using the same steps listed in section 2.1. Figure 28 6.2. Reading Tags If reader is “Offline” and does not identify tags, make sure the state/status of the MTI RFID ME is “Online” reference Figure 9 which shows “Online” status). In general, reading tags depends on a lot of different conditions, please verify that there are no metal or liquid objects surrounding the RFID reader and/or near the tags (such as a metal table, or glass of water). 6.3. Writing Tags If tag status displays “ERROR”, make sure the tag and reader proximity is very close (touching if necessary), and try again. - 30 - Jul 9, 2014
