Version 2.0.0.0 5 Using the Padl-R Using the Button The button on the Padl-R is touch sensitive and as such responds to your finger either pressing the button or resting lightly over it. To prevent unexpected operation please remove your finger from the button when not in use. Charging the Padl-R Battery The Padl-R is powered by a Lithium- Ion battery. The battery is charged via the USB port on a PC or via one of the other charging accessories that can be purchased separately. Whenever the Padl-R is connected to a PC the battery will be charged. When charging, the Amber LED will be on. Charging times vary depending on the state of the battery It is recommended that the battery is charged when not in use. Doing so ensures the battery is kept in a good working order. A full charge takes approx 10 Hrs. Single button press – Press or touch the button, then remove your finger Long Press – Hold your finger on the button until the reader responds and then remove your finger from the button Version 2.0.0.0 6 Low Battery Indication The Padl-R indicates a low battery condition by continuously flashing the Amber LED. If this happens it is recommended that you give the Padl-R a full charge. Turning the Padl-R ON Press and hold the button. The Blue LED flashes 3 times and the Padl-R plays a short multi tone tune. If the battery is flat the Padl-R will turn straight off again. This will be seen as the Blue LED flashing 6 times in quick succession. Turning the Padl-R OFF Press and hold the button. The Blue LED flashes 3 times and the Padl-R plays a different multi tone tune. The Padl-R is also equipped with an auto shutdown feature. The factory default for this feature is to shutdown after 1200 seconds (20 minutes) of inactivity. If the Padl-R is plugged into a USB connection, the auto power OFF will not operate. Reading a Tag To read a Tag, present a compatible Tag to the Reader’s antenna. Press and release the button. If successful, the Padl-R will beep and the Green LED will flash twice. If unsuccessful the Padl-R will beep and the Red LED will flash twice. The button is touch sensitive technology. Please remove your finger from the button when not in use. Keeping your finger on the button will turn the Padl-R off. Version 2.0.0.0 7 For Your Safety Read these guidelines before using your Reader.

The device only operates when the read button is pushed by the user with the transmitter turning itself off once a card has been activated. When the device is transmitting there is an audible and visual warning to the user. The power output of the Bluetooth device has been measured to be less than 1 mW and has therefore been considered to be inconsequential. In accordance with Section 1.1310 the Maximum Permissible Exposure (MPE) limits for the General Population / Uncontrolled Exposure of f/1500 have been applied. The maximum distance from the antenna at which the MPE is met or exceeded is calculated from the equation relating field strength in V/m, transmit power in watts, transmit antenna gain and separation distance in metres: E, V/m = (√ (30 * P * G)) / d Power density, mW/m2 = E2/3770 E for MPE: (902/1500) = E2/3770 E = √(902/1500)*3770 E = 47.6 V/m The maximum radiated power measured was +28.3 dBm or 0.68 watts. Therefore: E = √ (30 * P * G) / d d = √ (30 * P * G) / E d = √ (30 * 0.68) / 47.6 d = 0.09 m or 9 cm Result: Complies if a minimum safe distance of 20 cm is specified.
