Introduction
This chapter provides an overview of RFID technology and components, and describes the MC3300xR LED
indications.
RFID Technology Overview
RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) is an advanced automatic identification (Auto ID) technology that uses radio
frequency signals to identify tagged items. An RFID tag contains a circuit that can store data. This data may be
pre-encoded or can be encoded in the field. The tags come in a variety of shapes and sizes.
To read a tag, the mobile computer sends out radio frequency waves using its integrated antenna. This RF field
powers and charges the tags, which are tuned to receive radio waves. The tags use this power to modulate the
carrier signal. The reader interprets the modulated signal and converts the data to a format for computer storage.
The computer application translates the data into an understandable format.

RFID Components
Zebra RFID solutions offer low cost, long read range, and a high read rate. These features provide real time
end-to-end visibility of products and assets in the factory, distribution center, retail outlet, or other facility. The
MC3300xR’s RFID system consists of the following components:
Silicon-based RFID tags that attach to retail products, vehicles, trailers, containers, pallets, boxes, etc.
An integrated antenna that supports applications such as item level tracking and asset tracking.
An embedded radio module that powers and communicates with tags for data capture and provides host
connectivity for data migration.
Tags
Tags contain embedded chips that store unique information. Available in various shapes and sizes, tags, often
called transponders, receive and respond to data requests. Tags require power to send data.
There are several categories of tags based on the protocol they support, read/write memory, and power options:
Active RFID tags are powered by internal light-weight batteries, and also use these batteries to broadcast radio
waves to the reader.
Semi-passive RFID tags are also powered by internal light-weight batteries, but draw broadcasting power from the
reader.
Passive RFID tags are powered by a reader-generated RF field. These tags are much lighter and less expensive
than active tags, and are typically applied to less expensive goods.
Antenna
Antennas transmit and receive radio frequency signals.
Radio Module
The radio module communicates with the tags and transfers the data to a host computer. It also provides features
such as filtering, CRC check, and tag writing. The MC3300xR supports standard RFID tags as described by
EPCGlobalTM Class 1 Gen2 protocol.

RFID Manager
Introduction
The Zebra RFID Manager application allows the user the perform various management functions on the RFID
reader module in the MC3300xR including firmware update, power control for the RFID Radio, resetting the RFID
module to factory defaults, and various other functions.
NOTE: Some screens shown in this guide may differ from the actual screens shown on the device. Screens are
subject to change with future releases.
Using the RFID Manager for Android
To use this application for RFID operations:
1.Launch the RFID Manager application for Android on the mobile device.
2.During initial use, set the region in which the device is operating. To set the region, open the application and
select Settings > Regulatory.
NOTE: If the RFID Demo application or partner application is connected to the MC3300xR, the RFID Manager
can still perform all management functions, however care should be used as to not interfere with any
ongoing operational behavior of the device (e.g., inventory, setting parameters, etc.).

RFID Manager Log
The following options may be enabled to capture reader logs.
•Real-time Logs - Captures real time logs from the MC3300xR’s RFID radio.
•Retrieve Buffered Logs - Captures the buffered logs from the MC3300xR’s RFID radio.
•Debug Logs - Captures RFID System Service debug logs.
NOTE: All three logs can be enabled. If all three logs are disabled, default logs from the application is captured
which does not include MC3300xR’s RFID System Service logs.

To capture real time logs:
1.Enable Real-time logs.
2.Connect and use the RFID application to create logs.
3.Tap on Export to retrieve the real time logs. It is not required to disconnect or exit the RFID application.
The Retrieve Buffered Logs option can only be used if the RFID application is not actively reading or writing RFID
tags.
The standard RX Logger application can also be used to get RFIDAPI3 and RFIDSERVICE activity.
Exporting Log Files
To export captured log files, select the Export button. The log file is saved as RfidLog.txt at a root of the
MC3300xR’s SD card file system. Retrieve the log file after connecting with PC through adb. RfidLog.txt file is
located in the internal storage of the root folder.
