About This Guide
The purpose of this guide is to provide a fast and simple demonstration of how RFID
works without having to install a large program such as PACTware or CoDeSys.

Scenarios
Scenario 1
You could demonstrate how RFID is different from “line of sight” technologies. Try placing a tag under
a table, assuming that the table is not metal, point the transceiver toward the tag and demonstrate
how data can be written to and read from the tag.
Scenario 2
You could demonstrate how RFID works in wet environments. Place the transceiver into a container
of liquid, water is probably the easiest. Assuming the container is not metal; you can show the
read/write functionality by placing a tag outside the container in the field of the transceiver. This
scenario also shows the ingress protection of the transceiver and associated cord set.
Scenario 3
It doesn’t need to be water and might be better suited to a typical sales call, drop a tag in your coffee
cup and have the transceiver read and write data, assuming the coffee cup is not metal this should be
a good demonstration of how RFID technology is less susceptible to environmental influences.
