RFID Applications and the IP2L

The IP2L communicates with the computer through the Basic Reader Interface (BRI) Server, which can be accessed in the Application Connection screen within Intermec Settings. The BRI Server controls the IP2L by issuing various BRI commands.
Use the RFID Resource Kit
The Intermec Developer Library RFID Resource Kits includes Java and .NET tools you cna use to develop applications that control the IP2L and data management.
The resource kit is available as part of the Intermec Developer Library (IDL). To lear more about the RFID Resource Kit, go to
www.intermec.com > Products > Applications and Software >
Development Tools > Developer Resource Kits.

Create Applications for the IP2L

You must create an application for the IP2L before it can read and write tags. Intermec recommends this general outline for developing your RFID application:
Write your application on a development workstation (your desktop PC).
Install and test the application on your computer.
If you do not have an application but want to verify that your IP2L can read and write RFID tags, download the Intermec RFID Demo application from the Intermec website.
1 Go to www.intermec.com > Products > RFID > Handheld
Readers > IP2L > the Downloads tab. The Download screen
appears.
2 Download and install the RFID Mobile Demo Kit onto your
mobile computer. For more information on how to install applications, see the mobile computer user manual.

This setting is equivalent to the DENSEREADERMODE or DRM BRI attribute.
LBT Channel Sets the default transmit channel of the available
ETSI 302-208 channels. When you enable LBT scanning, the channel scan sequence starts with this LBT channel. When you disable LBT scanning (as in the 4 channel mode) the LBT channel is the only channel used. The range for 10 chanel mode is 4 to 13.
LBT Scan Enable When LBT scanning is enabled, the algorithm
scans the available ETSI 302-208 channels for a free transmit channel.
This setting is equivalent to the LBTSCANENABLE BRI attribute.

Troubleshoot the IP2L

DRAFT
The following table may help you fix some common problems you may experience while using the IP2L.
Note: If you send the IP2L or computer in for service, it is your responsibility to save the computer data and its configuration. Intermec is only responsible for ensuring that the hardware matches the original configuration repairing or replacing the computer.
RFID Problems and Solutions
Problem Solution
The IP2L is unable to read RFID tags, or seems to read tags slowly or inconsistently.
The IP2L does not respond to your RFID application.
Make sure you have connected onto the IP2L on the
computer. For help, see “Connect and Enable the
RFID Reader” on page 4.
Make sure you have enabled the IP2L. .
The IP2L uses a linear antenna. It can only read a
tag’s antenna which is oriented in the same way as the IP2L antenna. A tag’s antenna is oriented the same as the IP2L antenna if the tag element is parallel to the front edge of the IP30 antenna.
Move slightly closer or farther from the tag.
Environmental factors can reduce the read range or create dead spots.
Make sure there are no metal objects or other objects
on or near the antenna. Large rings or hand jewelery can affect the performance of the IP2L.
Make sure the computer is working properly. The
IP2L will not work well if there are too many applications running in the battery.
Make sure the computer battery is not low, it may
affect the performance of the IP2L.
Make sure your application is communicating with
the IP2L, the BRI server on your computer, or both.
You may need to change BRI server settings to
communicate with your application. For help, see
