Multi ISO RFID 1059 User Guide.doc 1059Page 4 of 221 IntroductionTechnology Solutions’ Multi ISO RFID 1059 provides the Symbol MC70 with Radio  Frequency  Identification  (RFID)  functionality.  The  unit  attaches  as  a snap on to the MC70. The mechanical design of the unit allows it to be quickly and  easily  removed,  alternatively  two  screws  may  be  used  to  make  the installation semi-permanent. The unit is  designed to retain  compatibility with standard MC70 accessories such as desktop cradles and chargers.The RFID 1059 is powered from the MC70. It can be used with the majority of transponders  operating  at  13.56MHz,  including  ISO15693  and  ISO  14443 compliant types.2 Parts of the RFID 1059Figure 1: The parts of the RFID 1059Latch locking screw holeLatch locking screw holeDocking connectorStatus LEDsMC70  mating connectorAntenna located behind label.

Multi ISO RFID 1059 User Guide.doc 1059Page 7 of 225 Using the RFID 10595.1 Basic operationRFID transponders can be read when they are in range of the antenna. The antenna is located behind the label on the front of the RFID 1059. The range at  which  a  transponder  can  be  read  depends  on  the  transponder  type  and size. Larger transponders can be read further away from the antenna. In many cases it  will be possible  to read transponders behind  and to the side  of the RFID  1059.  For  best  performance  the  transponder  must  be  orientated correctly  with  the  antenna.  In  most  cases  this  means  that  the  transponder should be parallel to the RFID 1059 cover as shown below:Figure 4: Presenting a transponder to the RFID 1059There  are  no  drivers  required  for  the  RFID  1059.  The  unit  is  automatically powered  up  when  the  serial  port  on  the  bottom  of  the  MC70  (COM1)  is opened.The default operating mode of the RFID  1059  as supplied  from Technology Solutions is continuous polling for transponders with the unique identification number  (UID) of any  compatible transponder being sent out to  the MC70 in Correct orientation; the transponder is parallel  to  the  reader  antenna  and read range will be good.Incorrect orientation;  the  transponder is  perpendicular  to  the  reader antenna and read range will be poor.
Multi ISO RFID 1059 User Guide.doc 1059Page 8 of 22ASCII  format  (COM1,  19200  baud).    In  this  default  mode  an  easy  way  to display the data is to use a Terminal Emulation program, for example mToken from  Choung  Networks.  A  trial  version  is  available  from http://www.choung.net/mToken/Having installed mToken with ActiveSync connect to the reader as follows: Launch mToken.  Select “Direct Comm Port” from the “session” menu.  Select the COM1  Change  the  baud  rate  to  “19200”.  Data  bits  should  be  8,  stop  bits should be 1, parity should be “None” and flow control should be “None”.  Click “Connect”The transponder UIDs are then displayed, prefixed by a letter identifying the transponder  type  as  follows;  'M'  for  ISO14443A,  'Z'  for  ISO14443B,  'S'  for SR176, 'V' for ISO15693.The status LEDs on the  front of  the RFID 1059 provide  an indication of the operating status of the RFID 1059.LED colour StatusGreen flash The  previous  command  was successfully  received  and  processed by the reader.Red flash The  previous  command  was  not successfully processed by the reader.Note  that  custom  configuration  of  the  RFID  1059  may  prevent  it  from operating as described above.
Multi ISO RFID 1059 User Guide.doc 1059Page 9 of 225.2 Software support for the RFID 1059To make full use of the functionality of the RFID 1059, a customised software application will be required. Technology Solutions support two approaches to this; direct communication with the reader using the low level command set or the use of an API to simplify application development. 5.2.1 Low level command setThe  Low  level  command  set  supports  two  modes;  ASCII  and  binary.  ASCII mode  is  typically  used  for  simple  applications,  for  example  collecting transponder  unique  identifiers  (UIDs).  The  binary  protocol  is  more  suited where complex interaction with transponders is required, for example a Mifare ticketing or vending application.The command set format and content is described in the document ‘Multi ISO RFID 1059 Protocol.pdf’ which is available for download from the Technology Solutions website at http://www.tsl.uk.com/downloads.htm .5.2.2 APIAn API is provided for use with the RFID 1059. This can be downloaded from the Technology Solutions website at http://www.tsl.uk.com/downloads.htm .A document  is  provided  as  part  of the  .zip  folder  which introduces  the  API. The RFID API is provided with Microsoft style compiled HTML help (.chm) and an intelli-sense file for general reference to the API. A sample application is also provided which demonstrates the use of the API.5.3 Power management with the RFID 1059All  power  for  the  RFID  1059  is  drawn  from  the  MC70.  Maximum  operating time  is  therefore  obtained  by  managing  the  operation  of  the  RFID  1059 optimally.The RFID 1059 has two operating modes; continuous read mode and standby mode.  The  third  mode  is  fully  powered off.  The  reader is  switched  between the  two  operating  modes  by  software  commands,  documented  in  the  Low level command set. The reader is fully powered off when the COM port on the MC70 is closed.The recommended power saving method is to close the serial port when the reader is not being used. The current consumption in Standby mode is high enough  to  reduce  the  MC70  battery life  and  the  time  taken  to  exit  Standby mode  is  not  much  shorter  than  that  from the  serial  port  being  opened.  Any application  using  the  RFID  1059  should  therefore  only  open  the  COM  port when an RFID transaction is to be performed.
Multi ISO RFID 1059 User Guide.doc 1059Page 10 of 225.4 Fitting a SAMTo fit a SAM it is necessary to remove the cover of the RFID 1059. This must only be done in an ESD safe area with appropriate precautions to avoid the possibility of damage to the RFID 1059.Remove the four Pozidriv screws securing the front cover:Figure 5: Location of cover fixing screwsRemove the  front  cover  by pulling it  away from the body  of the RFID  1059, starting at the docking connector end.The  SAM  socket  is  unlocked  by  sliding  the  metal  cover  towards  the  MC70 mating connector:Figure 6: Unlocking the SAM socketRemove four screws.
Multi ISO RFID 1059 User Guide.doc 1059Page 11 of 22Slide in the SAM, making sure that it  is orientated correctly and then relock the SAM socket by sliding the metal cover back away from the MC70 mating connector:Figure 7: Inserting the SAMReassemble the RFID 1059 by refitting the cover and securing it with the four screws.5.5 Compatible peripheralsThe  HF  RFID  1059  is  compatible  with  any  standard  Symbol  peripheral  that does not use the serial port (COM1) because this is used for RFID data. The serial port is not connected to the Docking Connector on the bottom of the HF RFID 1059. A list of compatible peripherals for the HF RFID 1059 is available for  download  from  the  Technology  Solutions  website  at http://www.tsl.uk.com/downloads.htm .It  is  not  possible  to  use  the  HF  RFID  1059  with  the  vehicle  cradle  (part number VCD7000-P000R). To charge the MC70 in a vehicle it is necessary to remove  the HF RFID 1059 from the  MC70 or to  use the  Auto charge cable (part number 25-70979-01).5.6 ActiveSyncThe MC70 with HF RFID 1059 attached can be used with ActiveSync, but the USB rather than the serial connection must be used.Note orientation of SAM.
Multi ISO RFID 1059 User Guide.doc 1059Page 12 of 226 Troubleshooting and Maintenance6.1 MaintenanceFor  trouble-free service treat the RFID 1059 in  the same  way as you  would the MC70 and observe the following tips when using the RFID 1059: Do not store or use the RFID 1059 in any location that is dusty, damp, or wet. Protect the RFID 1059 from temperature extremes.
