## What is RFID Tag Finder?

RFID Tag Finder will help you rapidly locate those hard to find tagged items.  It is one of a series of apps designed for ASCII2-compatible, Bluetooth® UHF readers from Technology Solutions (UK) Ltd.

Using responsive, audible, signal-strength feedback and a dynamic graphical signal meter RFID Tag Finder allows you to rapidly sweep large areas and hone in on just the asset you are looking for. Alternatively, configure Tag Finder to only detect when the asset is very nearby - allowing rooms full of cages, boxes and racks to be rapidly and efficiently searched.Using the built-in, default configurations or a fully, user-specified operation, Tag Finder can be optimized for your asset environment.

RFID Tag Finder can be configured for tags encoded using:

∙ SGTIN-96
∙ GRAI-96
∙ ASCII
∙ Hex

To make life even easier all the necessary encoding configuration can be achieved by simply scanning an RFID tag in the desired format.

The target asset identifier can either be entered manually or be scanned from a barcode.
SGTIN-96 encoded assets can be specified using GS1 standard identifiers such as GTIN-8, GTIN-12 (UPC), GTIN-13, GTIN-14 or simply using the Item Reference number.
GRAI-96 encoded assets can be targeted using GRAI codes or plain asset types.

With Hex or ASCII encoding selected a useful, in-built tag scanning screen generates a list of nearby tags, ranked by signal strength to quickly provide a target identifier when demonstrating or familiarising yourself with the operation of the App.


Technology Solutions (UK) Ltd (TSL) specialises in the design, development and manufacture of Radio Frequency Identification Devices (RFID) and other multi-technology mobile device peripherals that are used to track products, assets, data or personnel. RFID devices are typically used in transport logistics, stock inventory control, and collection of personal data and attendance.

RFID Tag Finder uses TSL's sophisticated, parameterised, ASCII protocol which provides developers with a powerful set of commands to carry out complex UHF RFID transponder operations in a simple, easy to grasp way. Using these simple pre-configured ASCII commands, any TSL ASCII2-compatible UHF RFID reader can be rapidly integrated into applications resulting in un-paralleled levels of productivity.

Please note that to explore the full capabilities of RFID Tag Finder requires the TSL 1128 Bluetooth UHF RFID Reader or other TSL ASCII2-compatible UHF reader.
