Note:
the Auto focus function is very sensitive. For optimal photo shooting, it is suggested to
hold the MCA steadily with two hands and press the button with your left thumb.
Please, take care that the target is well lighted up, or, in case of close targets, that is well
lighted by the illuminator.
5.5 Locking /unlocking the touchpad
The CliniScape touchpad is locked by default. This is indicated by the first amber LED on the left. The automatic
lock is a precaution against inadvertent activation of the touch button functionalities when handling the unit.
If the amber LED of the touchpad lock function is active, then you have to unlock the touchpad
by pressing for three second the dot. When the amber LED turns off, all the touchpad buttons
are enabled.
After two minutes of no use of the touchpad, the lock function is automatically reinserted.
5.6 Using the RFID reader
The CliniScape has an integrated 13.56 MHz RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) reader that you can use to
retrieve information from RFID tags.
RFID technology makes use radio frequency (RF) transmissions to identify products or persons. RFID does not
require direct contact or line-of-sight scanning, and can be scanned through many materials, including plastics,
clothes, carton boxes etc., with the exception of metal.
An RFID tag can store much more data than a typical bar code, and some RFID tags can both transmit and
record data. RFID can be used for asset tracking, identification, process control, health care, and pharmaceutical
applications.
The RFID reader supports the following formats (proximity and vicinity ranges = 2 to 10 cm):
•
ISO/IEC 14443A/B
•
ISO/IEC 15693
•
ISO/IEC 18000-3
If supported by specific applications, the CliniScape allows you also to write tags, provided that they are
supporting the above standards.
Using your RFID reader is rather simple.
If the amber LED of the touchpad lock function is active, then you have to unlock the
touchpad by pressing for three second the dot. When the amber LED turns off, all the
touchpad buttons are enabled.
Then you have to touch the dot above the RFID word. The blue LED
turns ON while you hear a sound that alerts you that the reader is
active.
Aim the back of the unit at the RFID tag, ensuring that the tag is 2 to
4 cm from the RFID antenna scan area (in case of large tags, having
dimension of a credit card size, the scanning distance can be up to 10
cm)
In case of a good read or at the end of the scan time, the LED turns
off and the tag content or a “not found” message are displayed.
