eader 300 (AIR300) is a Low Frequency RFID reader working on 

134.2KHz, which is designed for the Motorola Workabout Pro - generation 4. It is backwards 
compatible to the generations 2 and 3. Since this reader is using the internal USB port for power 
supply and communication, it cannot be used with generation 1 of the Workabout Pro, which 
does not have an internal USB connector. 
 
Mechanically the AIR300 is using the expansion end cap of the Workabout Pro. That means 
that it is physically not possible to operate the reader together with other expansion modules 
that are using the extended end cap position. 
 
For all approval and safety information concerning the WORKABOUT Pro Generation 4please 
visit 

www.motorola.com

 or contact your local Motorola distributor.
