Multi ISO RFID 1059 User Guide.doc 1059 1 Introduction Technology 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.
Multi ISO RFID 1059 User Guide.doc 1059 3 Attaching to an MC70 1. Align the slots on the MC70 with the guides on the spring clips of the RFID 1059. Spring Clip 2. Slide the RFID 1059 on to the MC70 ensuring the MC70 aligns with the MC70 mating connector on the RFID 1059. The spring clips will push out and then click in as the MC70 locks in place. 3. For semi-permanent installation fit M2×6mm pan head Pozidriv screws into the latch locking screw holes.

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.

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”.
Multi ISO RFID 1059 User Guide.doc 1059 5.2 Software support for the RFID 1059 To 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 set The Low level command set supports two modes; ASCII and binary.
Multi ISO RFID 1059 User Guide.doc 1059 5.4 Fitting a SAM To 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: Remove four screws. Figure 5: Location of cover fixing screws Remove the front cover by pulling it away from the body of the RFID 1059, starting at the docking connector end.
