5.6. Reading articles with an auxiliary device connected to the reader
The system can also be used to track articles which do not have UHF RFID tags. An auxiliary device must be
connected to the reader for this purpose. The auxiliary device may be a barcode reader/data matrix reader or an
RFID reader using a different frequency. A USB keyboard may also be used as an auxiliary device for manually
entering IDs.
In order for the auxiliary device to be used as an external reader, it must be USB HID compatible.

Tagging the items
An RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) system consists of three components: a scanning antenna and
transceiver (often combined into one reader, also known as an interrogator) and a transponder, the RFID tag.
The RFID tag consists of a microchip and antenna. The tag contains electronically-stored information which is
read with a reader.
Any materials at a dental clinic can be connected to LM Dental Tracking System™ for tracking and monitoring
by attaching stickers with built-in RFID tags to packages. There are different type of stickers for different
materials and sizes of packages.
