FCC & IC Radiation Exposure Statement
for Mobile Devices
This equipment complies with FCC and IC radiation exposure limits set forth for
an uncontrolled environment. This equipment should be installed and operated
with minimum distance 20cm between the radiator and your body. This transmitter
must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or trans-
mitter.
Tags appear and disappear during consecutive searches from the same
area
• Certain Tags may be just outside of the consistent read range of the mobile reader. The
environment may also affect the consistency of searches. Metal walls and other
construction materials can adversely affect the read range of searches.
Getting the Tag to sound or flash
• The beeper and light are controlled by checkboxes on the Find Tags window. Make
sure the correct selections are made before performing a search.
Selecting the correct communications port
In most cases the Seeker application will detect the Plug and Play ID of the RF Reader and
configure it for the correct communications port. If the application can not find the RF
Reader it is possible to manually configure the communications port. Open the Settings
window. In the Communication Port box, select a Comm Port ID. Attempt to perform a
Find operation from the Find Tags window. Check the status of the RF Reader LED to
determine if the application is communicating with the card. Repeat until the correct port is
identified.
