RFID reader
The Motion C5 includes an integrated 13.56 MHz RFID (Radio Frequency Identification)
reader that you can use to retrieve information from RFID tags.
RFID tags use radio frequency (RF) transmissions to identify a product, animal, or person.
RFID does not require direct contact or line-of-sight scanning, and can be scanned through
many materials, including clothing. 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 Motion C5 RFID reader supports the following formats:
• ISO/IEC 14443A/B
• ISO/IEC 15693
• ISO/IEC 18000-3
For information about using the RFID reader, see “Using the RFID reader” on page 25.
The Motion C5 also includes an integrated 13.56MHz high-frequency passive RFID tag that
can be used for identification and short-range asset tracking.
