When docked into a cradle power is passed through the 1117 so that the host terminal can charge. When docked and an external USB host is connected, the USB connection from the host terminal is disconnected from the RFID reader and passed straight through to the connector on the bottom of the 1117. This allows an ActiveSync connection to the host terminal but prevents simultaneous ActiveSync and RFID operation. Only ActiveSync connections (external host) are possible. There is no support of USB connection where the terminal is the host (for example USB memory sticks) through the 1117. If ActiveSync is required for software development and debug purposes it is recommended that ActiveSync over Bluetooth is configured. Instructions for doing this are provided in a separate document ‘Bluetooth ActiveSync on Motorola Terminals’ included on the Explorer Kit and Software Development Kit CDs and can also be downloaded from http://www.tsl.uk.com/downloads.htm.

Otherwise they can be deployed by copying ‘RFID Reader Driver.CAB’ to the host terminal and running it. When prompted, choose ‘Device’ as the destination to install the drivers to. RFID Reader Driver.CAB is included on the Explorer Kit and Software Development Kit CDs and can also be downloaded from http://www.tsl.uk.com/downloads.htm. 9.2 Reader Demonstration Technology Solutions provide a demonstration application which can be used to explore the functionality of the 1117 HF Reader and test the read range for a particular transponder. This application and full instructions are available for download from the Technology Solutions website at http://www.tsl.uk.com/downloads.htm. An example screenshot of the Demonstration software is shown in Figure 7. Figure 7 : Demonstration software Technology Solutions (UK) Limited reserves the right to change its products, specifications and services at any time without notice. www.tsl.uk.com © Technology Solutions (UK) Ltd Page 14 of 25 1117 HF Reader User Guide V1.2 .pdf 1117 9.3 SmartWedge RFID application A Wedge application has been developed for use with the 1117 and other Technology Solutions RFID readers. This activates the RFID reader whilst any of the yellow scan buttons are held down. Any transponder serial numbers that are read are sent out as though they had been typed on the keypad to whichever application has focus. Instructions for installing and using the Wedge application are provided separately from the Technology Solutions website at http://www.tsl.uk.com/downloads.htm . 9.4 HF RFID Configuration A Configuration application has been developed for use with the 1117 and other Technology Solutions RFID readers. This allows common operating parameters to be changed and stored. Instructions for installing and using the Configuration Application are provided separately from the Technology Solutions website at http://www.tsl.uk.com/downloads.htm . 9.5 Software support for the 1117 HF RFID reader To make full use of the functionality of the HF RFID reader, 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. 9.5.1 Low level command set The 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 ‘1117 HF RFID Protocol.pdf’ which is available for download from the Technology Solutions website at http://www.tsl.uk.com/downloads.htm . 9.5.2 API An API is provided for use with the HF RFID reader. 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. 9.6 Power management with the 1117 HF RFID reader All power for the HF RFID is drawn from the host terminal. Maximum operating time is therefore obtained by managing the operation of the RFID Reader optimally. The HF RFID reader has three operating modes; continuous read mode, idle mode and standby mode. The reader is switched between read mode and idle modes by software commands, documented in the Low level command set. The reader is set into standby mode when the virtual COM port is closed. The reader remains in standby mode for as long as the USB is active on the host terminal. The recommended power saving method is to close the serial port when the reader is not being used. Idle mode does not provide much power saving and the time taken to exit Idle mode is not much shorter than that from the serial port being opened. Any application using the 1117 HF RFID reader should therefore only open the COM port when an RFID transaction Technology Solutions (UK) Limited reserves the right to change its products, specifications and services at any time without notice. www.tsl.uk.com © Technology Solutions (UK) Ltd Page 15 of 25 1117 HF Reader User Guide V1.2 .pdf 1117 is to be performed. This is the approach taken with the Demonstration application and with SmartWedge RFID.
