Introduction

1. Introduction

Nokia Mobile RFID Kit enables you to use touch to automate different tasks in your Nokia 5140 phone. By touching Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) tags, you can launch predefined functions in the phone (such as call dialling and web browsing) and store time stamped data in the phone.

Nokia Mobile RFID Kit contains the following:

• Two Nokia Xpress-on™ RFID Reader Shells

• Two Java™ applications called Shortcut and RecordData

• Tags to identify objects and tasks

Your device and its enhancements may contain small parts. Keep them out of reach of small children.

Nokia Mobile RFID Kit is only compatible with the Nokia 5140 phone that is available separately. For information about the Nokia 5140 phone, see www.nokia.com.

Note: This User’s Guide contains information and instructions for Nokia Mobile RFID Kit. For instructions on how to use your Nokia 5140 phone, see the Nokia 5140 user’s guide.

For examples of how you can use your Nokia Mobile RFID Kit, see www.nokia.com/rfid.

■ Introduction to RFID

RFID technologies use radio waves to automatically identify individual objects. The most common method of identifying objects using RFID is to store a serial number that identifies the object on an RFID tag (also called an RFID transponder), and attaching the tag to the object.

The RFID tag is able to transmit the information it contains to an RFID reader device. The RFID reader converts the radio waves returned from the RFID tag into a format that can then be passed on to an application in the phone.

Introduction

To transmit data from the RFID tag to the RFID reader, Nokia Mobile RFID Kit uses the radio frequency of 13.56 MHz, which is the most widely used globally available frequency for RFID.

■ Nokia Xpress-on™ RFID Reader Shell

Nokia Xpress-on™ RFID Reader Shell contains the RFID reader that enables you to read tags with your Nokia 5140 phone. The RFID reader is located inside the lower part of the shell (dark area in the picture).

The Xpress-on™ RFID Reader Shell also stores the Shortcut and RecordData applications, as well as a Cover browser application. When you install the Xpress-on™ RFID Reader Shell, the Cover browser application is automatically downloaded to the phone, after which you can use it to download the other two applications.

Both of the Xpress-on™ RFID Reader Shells in Nokia Mobile RFID Kit contain all three applications.

Note: The Xpress-on™ RFID Reader Shell is only compatible with the Nokia 5140 phone. Do not try to use it with other phones. Do not try to open the Xpress-on™ RFID Reader Shell.

The RFID reader in the Xpress-on RFID Reader Shell takes its power from the phone battery. Note that using the RFID reader may drain the phone battery faster.

■ Shortcut application and RecordData application

The Shortcut and RecordData applications are used for managing tagrelated information and functions in your Nokia 5140 phone.

• The Shortcut application enables you to define functions that touching a tag will launch in your Nokia 5140 phone.

You can define that when you touch a tag, the phone either makes a phone call to a predefined number, sends a text message using Short Message Service (SMS) to a predefined number, or connects to a predefined web site over a General Packet Radio Service (GPRS) connection.
