IP4 Portable RFID Reader Instructions 3
Introducing the IP4 Portable RFID Reader
The IP4 Portable RFID Reader is an accessory handle for the
700 Series Color mobile computers. Together, the IP4 and
700 Color provide a high-performance mobile RFID solution
that allows you to bring the read/write device to the tagged
product rather than moving tagged products past a fixed reader.
What You Get
• IP4 Portable RFID Reader
• Battery (Model AB12)
• Product documentation
Using the IP4
To use the IP4, you need to perform these steps:
1 Charge and install the battery.
2 Attach your IP4 to a 700 Color.
3 (Optional) Configure your IP4 as a keyboard wedge.
4 Read an RFID tag.
These instructions describe each step.
Charging and Installing the Battery
To charge the IP4 battery, you need the Dual Pack Battery
Charger (Model AC12).
To charge the IP4 battery
• Insert the battery into a slot on the AC12 battery charger.
A fully discharged battery charges in less than 4 hours.
4 IP4 Portable RFID Reader Instructions
To install the battery
1 Insert the battery tab on the top of the battery into the IP4.
2 Firmly press the bottom of the battery onto the IP4 until the
battery snaps into place.
To remove the battery
• Push the battery release latch on the bottom of the IP4.

Attaching Your IP4 to a 700 Color
Your IP4 uses Infrared Data Association (IrDA) to communicate
with the 700 Color. The lightpipe in the IP4 helps communicate
the IrDA signal between the 700 Color and your IP4.
To attach your IP4 to a 700 Color
1 Slide the 700 Color into the IP4 until it clicks into place.
Note: Do not remove the lightpipe from the IP4.

2 Secure the retaining screws, making sure that they are inserted
straight into the 700 Color.
To remove your IP4 from a 700 Color
1 Remove the two retaining screws.
2 Hold the 700 Color at the display.
3 While lifting the 700 Color up (away from the IP4), pull the
700 Color forward and out of the IP4.
(Optional) Configuring Your IP4 as a Keyboard Wedge
You can configure your IP4 as a keyboard wedge to allow the 700
Color to receive data from your IP4 as it would from a keyboard.
To use your IP4 as a keyboard wedge, the 700 Color and your
IP4 must meet these requirements:
• The 700 Color must have at least 64MB of flash ROM.
• The fifth character in the configuration number (CN) found
on the back of the 700 Color must not be a 4 or 5. For
example:
•751B6xxxx meets this requirement.
•760A4xxxx does not meet this requirement.
IP4 Portable RFID Reader Instructions 7
• The 700 Color must be running one of these operating
systems (OS):
• 4.95.1 or later Prem (Premium)
• 4.96.4 or later GSM Phone
• If the fourth character in the configuration number (CN) of
your IP4 is an “A”:
• The 700 Color must be running IVA 4.03.35.1043 or
later.
• Your IP4 must be running firmware version 5.19 or later.
• If the fourth character in the configuration number (CN) of
your IP4 is an “B”:
• The 700 Color must be running IVA 4.03.35.1050 or
later.
• Your IP4 must be running firmware version 7.16 or later.
To configure your IP4 as a keyboard wedge
1 Fully charge your IP4 battery and attach your IP4 to a 700
Color.
2 On the 700 Color, start Intermec Settings.
3 Select RFID > Reader 1, and select Enable Reader.
4 Under Reader 1, select Reader Module > Tag Type, and
select the type of RFID tag you are using.
5 From the main Intermec Settings menu, select Device
Settings > Keypad > Scan Button Remapping > Handle
Tri gg er, and select RFID.
6 Save your settings.
Note: Use Intermec Settings to find the OS and IVA
versions of the 700 Color. For help, see the user’s
manual for the 700 Color.
8 IP4 Portable RFID Reader Instructions
To test the keyboard wedge
1 Start Microsoft Pocket Word.
2 Read an RFID tag. For help, see the next section.
The RFID tag information appears in Pocket Word.
Reading an RFID Tag
You can scan at least six RFID tags per second with the IP4.
To read an RFID tag
1 Position the front of the IP4 within 91 cm (3 ft) of an RFID
tag.
2 Pull the trigger.
Note: Continuously reading tags with the IP4 may
cause the IP4 to overheat. If the IP4 temperature rises
above the maximum operating temperature, the IP4
will stop reading tags. If this occurs, let the IP4 cool
down until its temperature is within the operating
temperature range.
RF Exposure regulations limit exposure to radio
frequency (RF) radiation. To comply with these
regulations, operators of this device must maintain
a distance of at least 20 cm (8 in) from the cover on
the antenna assembly. (The cover on the antenna is
the dome-shaped surface.) While the device is on,
the operator’s body and parts of the body such as
eyes, hands, or head, must be 20 cm (8 in) or
farther from the cover of the antenna assembly.
Avertissement: Les réglementations sur les
expositions RF limitent l'exposition aux
rayonnements RF. Pour se conformer à ces
réglementations, les opérateurs de ce dispositif
doivent maintenir une distance minimale de 20 cm
du couvercle de l'antenne. (Le couvercle de
l'antenne est la surface bombée.) Lorsque l'appareil
est sous tension, le corps et les parties du corps
(yeux, mains, tête) de l'opérateur doivent être à au
moins 20 cm du couvercle de l'antenne.

Understanding the IP4 LEDs
Your IP4 uses LEDs to indicate the status of certain operations.
IP4 LEDs: The IP4 LEDs are located on the back of the IP4.
IP4 LED Descriptions
Icon LED Description
Power (PWR) This LED is green when +5 power is
on and the IP4 is ready to read tags.
