Reading and Writing to Tags
Chapter 3: Using the Reader Assistant 17
To read tags from the Read/Write tab:
1. Click Start Reading Tags.
The reader reads the tags and starts to display the EPCs and the running total number of
times each EPC has been read (Reads) in the Read/Write screen.
A yellow background is displayed with the date and timestamp as each tag is read. The
most recently read tags display white backgrounds. The background gets darker as the
time from when the tags were last read gets longer. See tag 6.
2. To stop reading tags, click Stop Reading Tags.
3. When the demo is complete, click Clear Screen to remove the information displayed on
the screen.
