Tag reading

When the user briefly presses button 1 to activate the RF antenna and read RFID tags, the RFID icon appears in the top right corner of the screen and the indicator LED lights up. The RF tag reading screen also appears, indicating that the identification device is ready to read RF tags. The screen shows the code of the tag read together with a count of how many tags have been read.

The radio frequency (RF) antenna can be deactivated in two ways:

  • – Briefly pressing button 1 deactivates the RF antenna and the device returns to the main menu.
  • – Automatic deactivation after one minute (configurable) without any readings.

Note: once a tag has been read, it cannot be read again unless it is to flag an incident.

Linking incidents to a tag reading

When the user briefly presses button 2 to link an incident to the reading, the following happens:
– The RF antenna is activated.
– The last tag read is displayed along with a list of up to 5 incident types. To change the tag, simply read it again.

To scroll through the list, move up and down with short presses of buttons 3 and 4. A long press of button 3 selects the incident and a long press of button 4 exits the incidents menu.

Once the incident is selected, a confirmation message appears on the screen and the device returns to the main screen.

If, once in this mode, the user takes no action, the device returns to the main screen after one minute of inactivity.

Menu screen

When the identification device is on the main screen and the user presses button 3 for a few seconds, a menu with several options is displayed.

To move the selection bar, briefly press button 3 to go up and button 4 to go down. To select an option, press button 3 for a few seconds. If you do not want to select an option, press button 4 (back) for a few seconds to return to the main screen.

The available options are:

  • Operating status: this option opens a submenu where you can check data such as the status of LTE, GPS, RFID, NFC, etc. It also lets you force the upload of the readings taken. Depending on the option chosen, more or less information is shown.
  • Tag reading test: this option lets you check that RF tag reading works correctly. Once in this menu, activate the antenna by pressing button 1. Readings taken in this mode are not counted as service readings.
  • Service activity: selecting this option shows a list of all tags read during the current service.
  • Delete tags: resets the counters of tags read with or without incidents. This allows tags already read during the service to be read again.
