signal passing from the Portable Reader must have a good

IrDA acceptance on the side of the Mobile Computer. You

will hear a click when you have the Mobile Computer com-

pletely inserted into the Portable Reader.

Performance Specifications

You can expect to read at least six tags per second up to three

feet. Attempting to read tags beyond these specifications

produces poor results.

Sometimes using the Reader continuously reading tags may

result in the unit overheating. This causes the Reader to stop

reading tags. Allow the Reader to cool and get back within

temperature range then the Reader will return to good tag reads.
