The handheld keyboard is multifunctional. In different modes, it has different functions.
You can choose any equipment which has Bluetooth and Virtual keyboard(like Notes,excel,word etc) functions as your mobile terminal,like iPhone ,ipad etc.
Open the Bluetooth function of the mobile terminal, and then connect our device ‘Ear Tag Reader’.
Open the notes(for example), create a new or open an existing note, the blinking cursor notice that the equipment is ready for receiving data from the reader.
The R901 is a handheld low-frequency RFID reader with a Bluetooth link. It works at 134 kHz and reads FDX-B animal identification tags to the ISO 11784 and 11785 standards, the ear tags and implantable transponders used in livestock and pet identification. The reader shows the tag's ID on its own screen and sends it to a phone, tablet or PC over Bluetooth, so an ID can be captured into a spreadsheet, a note or farm software in the field. It is an ABS-bodied wand with an IP57-rated head, a 3000 mAh battery rated for about 20 hours of use, and a reading range of roughly 5 to 8 cm to an ear tag, as listed in the specification above.
The R901 pairs as a Bluetooth keyboard. Once it is connected to a phone or computer, you open any app that accepts text (Notes, a spreadsheet, a database field), put the cursor where the ID should go, and each scan types the tag number into that field followed by a line break. Because it emulates a keyboard, no special driver or SDK is needed on the host: if the device has Bluetooth and a text field, it works. Confirm the host device and the app you intend to type into before ordering.
The R901 is a low-frequency FDX-B reader. It reads 134 kHz animal tags to ISO 11784/11785; it does not read 13.56 MHz NFC or MIFARE cards, nor UHF tags, because those are different frequencies and protocols. If you need to read or write high-frequency NFC and MIFARE, DESFire or NTAG chips, that is a different class of reader; see the next section.
Use the R901 for 134 kHz animal ID in the field. For 13.56 MHz NFC and MIFARE, DESFire or NTAG cards and tags we supply desktop readers: the µFR Classic CS when you write encoding software against its free SDK, and the ACR122U for existing PC/SC software, plus the newer ACR1252U and ACR1552U from ACS for new PC/SC designs. The µFR page compares the µFR, the ACR122U and the R901 side by side, and the ACR122U page compares the three ACS models. The R901, µFR and ACR122U pages are all listed under RFID readers.
The R901 and our other readers are quote-only. Tell us the tag standard you need to read (134 kHz FDX-B for the R901), the host device you will pair with, and the quantity. We have supplied RFID hardware since 2008; standard samples are free and standard lead time is 2 to 3 weeks, with pricing by quotation. Start on the contact form, by email or on WhatsApp. If your tags are 13.56 MHz NFC rather than animal ear tags, ask about the uFR Classic CS or the ACR122U instead.
Low-frequency 134 kHz animal identification tags to ISO 11784 and 11785 in the FDX-B format: the ear tags and implantable transponders used in livestock and pets. It does not read 13.56 MHz NFC/MIFARE or UHF tags.
No. The R901 pairs as a Bluetooth keyboard and types each scanned ID into whatever text field has the cursor, such as Notes or a spreadsheet. Any device with Bluetooth and a text field works; confirm your host and app before ordering.
No. It is a 134 kHz low-frequency reader for animal tags. For 13.56 MHz NFC and MIFARE, DESFire or NTAG chips, use a high-frequency reader such as the uFR Classic CS (with its SDK) or the ACR122U (PC/SC).
About 5 to 8 cm to an ear tag, as listed in the specification. Low-frequency animal tags are read close-up, so the wand is held near the tag; range varies with the tag and conditions.
It works with any device that has Bluetooth and an app with a text field, because it emulates a keyboard. That includes phones, tablets and PCs. Confirm your specific device and the app you will type into before ordering.
The R901 has a 3000 mAh battery rated for about 20 hours of continuous use, per the specification. Actual time depends on scanning volume and Bluetooth use.
The reader head is rated IP57, per the specification, so it tolerates dust and brief water contact typical of field use. Confirm your exact conditions with us; it is not rated for submersion.
