Overview The Mini RFID Pad Model 210 is used with other equipment and software to read and/or program RFID tags. These tags are used to identify files, folders, and other items such as books. When used in conjunction with pad software, the unit can track, monitor, and assist in locating various items equipped with RFID tags. Model 210 components The Model 210 includes the following components: • 3M Mini RFID Pad Model 210 • USB cable - connects the Mini RFID Pad Model 210 to a customer-supplied computer Specifications Mini RFID Pad Model 210 Dimensions Length: 7.21 in. (18.3 cm) Width: 6.44 in. (16.3 cm) Height: 0.6 in. (1.5 cm) Read Range At least 6 in. (15.2 cm) with the tag in the center of the pad Tip: Metal surfaces within two inches of the pad will reduce the pad’s read range. Weight 16 oz. (454 g) Environmental Operating temperature range: 50°F to 104°F (10°C to 40°C) Storage temperature range: -40°F to 131°F (-40°C to 55°C) Humidity: 0% to 85% RH, non-condensing Cleaning the Mini RFID Pad Model 210 DO not use any abrasive cleaners on the pad. Gently rub the pad with a soft cloth dampened with a mild cleaning solution. ©2008. 3M. All rights reserved. 5

Install the Model 210 Determine the best placement for the pad • Place the pad on a flat, non-metallic surface in a GR_210_dimensions convenient location. For best performance, make sure that the pad is at least 2 in. (5 cm) away from any metal surface, keeping in mind that some desks and tables may have metal parts underneath the surface. If necessary, the pad can be as close as 1.0 in. (2.5 cm) to a metal surface. This will reduce the read range. 7.21 in 18.3 cm • Place the pad close enough to the computer so that the user can hear the verification sounds. The computer generates the pad’s audible and visual cues. 6.44 in 16.3 cm WARNING To reduce the risks associated with hazardous voltage, which, if not avoided, could result in death or serious injury: • Do not use the Mini RFID Pad Model 210 if the case or cord are damaged; • Do not use the Mini RFID Pad Model 210 in outdoor or wet environments; • Do not attempt to service or repair the RFID circuitry — no user serviceable parts inside. ©2008. 3M.

Troubleshooting Introduction to the LEDs on the bottom of the unit The following is a brief introduction to the LEDs that are located on the bottom of the unit, which will aid in troubleshooting. 1. Solid green when the unit is powered on. 2. Blinking red when communicating with software. 3. Blinking green when the firmware is working and the unit is waiting for a command. 3 1 2 GR_210_LEDs Pad does not read tags Here are some things to try: • Make sure that the items that you are trying to read are equipped with 3M RFID tags. • Make sure that the RFID Reader’s green power light is flashing, indicating that the reader has power. If the power light is NOT flashing, check the USB connection. • Make sure that the reader’s red communications light is flashing to indicate that it is communicating with the software. If the communications light is not flashing, make sure the software (delivered with your system) is installed and running on your computer. Pad read range is reduced (less than 4 in.) • Check to make sure that the pad is at least two inches (15 cm) from any metal surfaces. Some locations may have hidden metal surfaces and components. Try moving the pad to a different location to see if the read range improves. • Make sure that the item’s tags are placed in the center of the pad. Pad does not always read all tags placed on it • Make sure that you are not trying to read blank, invalid, or disabled tags. • Make sure that the tags are within the pad’s read range. • Make sure that the item’s tags are placed near the center of the pad (not hanging off the side of the pad). ©2008. 3M.
