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
