RFID (MC9000-G RFID Only)
While the trigger is pressed on MC9000-G RFID mobile computers with RFID technology, the mobile
computer interrogates all of the RFID Class 0 and Class 1 tags within the radio frequency (RF) field of
view. The mobile computer captures data from each new tag found. When the trigger is released, the
mobile computer stops interrogating tags. In addition, RFID tag data can be stored on the mobile
computer. Using the MC9000-G RFID sample application, tags that are read display in the main RFID
Tags window, see Figure 5-24 on page 5-28.
For more information about reading RFID tags and using MC9000-G RFID mobile computers, see RFID
on page 5-28.
Reading RFID Tags
1. Ensure that an RFID tag reader enabled application is loaded on the mobile computer.
2. Aim the scan exit window at the tag.
Figure 2-19. RFID Class 0 / Class 1 Tag Reading
For a successful tag read, the allowable read distance from the front of the
mobile computer’s scan exit window to the tag is 0.2 ft. - 10 ft. (0.061 m to 3.1
m). Reader motion horizontally and/or vertically may enhance tag reading
ability.
