Tips and tricks
When using the device, antenna position is crucial to accuracy of reading results.
When starting to scan, place antenna in front of the book where you want to begin and then
press the trigger button to start reading. Now you can move the device closer to book spine and
touch books with the antenna, and slide the device forward.
Movement speed is very important. In general, slower is better. The device needs some time to
identify each RFID tag, and if it is moved too fast it may not have enough time to identify all tags.
Best way to practice the right speed is in Inventory mode, where you can easily see what items
were found.
In Weeding and Collect modes, the device will stop reading when it finds and item that is / is not
in the list. To continue, remove the item from the shelf to prevent it from being read again, and
then press the trigger button to continue.
Reading of tags does not necessarily always happen in the same order as the books are in the
shelf, because of the RFID technology.
