This process is completed using the handheld reader. There are two encoding methods available: Single Tag Encoding is designed for programming one tag at a time and is ideal when you only need to encode a small number of tags. Bulk Encoding is intended for programming multiple loose RFID tags with the same product information. Use this method when you have a larger quantity of unassigned tags that all need to be encoded for the same product, and the tags are isolated from other tags. Choose the encoding method that best matches the number of tags you need to program and your workflow. Click the Write Tags option from the Home Screen Pair Bluetooth Single Tag Encoding Use this option when needing to program a small number of tags Click Single Tag Encoding This will open the Search window Enter the desired quantity of items you wish to encode Adding Tag Level Properties Click the "Additional settings" button to open tag level properties which can then be set including: SN (Serial Number) Expiration Date Lot Number Cost Sell By Sublocation The Sublocation is a drop-down and the values can be created from the Location Framework section of the web portal. Pull the trigger or click the Write Tags button As each tag is programmed successfully it will turn green Once all tags are programmed successfully a finishing prompt will appear asking One more - to program more quantity of the same Product Another Product - to search for a new Product to program Finish to complete the process and return to the Home screen Bulk Encoding Use this option when needing to program a large number of tags. This method captures the serial numbers from each tag, then ensures that all captured serial number is encoded with the product's information. Caution: When using this feature, it is critical that any blank tags are removed from the field of view to avoid unintentionally encoding tags Select Bulk Encoding Pair Bluetooth Use the search for the item you wish to encode Once located, select it As a safety precaution, only blank tags never before encoded, are eligible to be bulk encoded. This is a feature designed to prevent overwriting existing tags Scan the tags to identify the number of available tags to encode Click Bulk Encoding Slowly move the reader over the tags You will see the number of tags Available to Encode decrease. Once the 'available' total is 0 a finishing prompt will appear With encoded tags now in hand you can scan and upload these tags into your inventory. EPC Read Quickly confirm the information programmed into a tag by using the EPC Read feature. Requirements: A mobile device with the Simple RFID app installed A handheld TSL reader paired to the mobile device Instructions for pairing your reader Step 1: Select the EPC Read option on the mobile app Step 2: Adjust the reader power If you're trying to capture a specific tag, make sure to set the power to Near , otherwise you may pick up other tags in the area, making it difficult to identify the correct tag. Step 3: Scan the tag(s) Pull the trigger to scan Tap on the EPC you wish to copy to the device's clipboard This will allow you to view & share EPC numbers for troubleshooting. Search Tags From the home screen click Search Tags Pair Bluetooth From the input window, enter the item you wish to locate, and select it Once it is selected, click the Search/Seek button This will initiate Search mode. Choose Near, Middle or Far option to adjust the power. Tip: Some environments may produce more reflection causing the reader to produce false positive results making it appear that the item is closer than it actually is. In these instances, once the signal is detected choose a lower power setting to reduce the read range which will help reduce the false positive signal Pull the trigger on the reader. If the item is within range the signal will indicate The grid will display 100% when the item is within 6" Alternative Access to Search Tags feature In addition to the standard Home Screen access, Search Tags can be accessed directly from the multiple locations, like Scan , Archive , Ship , Receive , EPC Read , Audi & Compare in the same way as it is shown in the example below: From the Scan menu, find the specific product you need to locate.
