INTRODUCTION - qIDmini Technical Information Manual 7
1INTRODUCTION
Product Description
The qIDmini (Model R1170I) is a handheld reader of the
easy2read©product family, compliant with UHF RFID ISO
18000-63/EPC C1G2 standards.
The qIDmini has an integrated antenna suited for short to
medium range applications and, thanks to the Bluetooth®
communication interface, it is a perfect UHF RFID add-on
for any Bluetooth® enabled host such as a PC, a
smartphone, a PDA or a tablet. The reader is compatible
with Windows XP/7, Windows CE/Mobile, Android, iPhone
and iPad.
The HID version supports native keyboard emulation
allowing to interact directly with legacy application, office
automation SW or any other generic solution requiring
manual input.
Fig. 1.1: qIDmini R1170I Reader
The qIDminiNF (model R1170INF) version is specifically
designed to optimize the reading performances with
near field miniaturized tags like the Murata Magicstrap
and Hitachi USPT. The near field antenna of the
qIDminiNF reader permits to read those small tags even
when embedded in small parts like watches, jewels or
mechanic parts. For this reason, the combination of the
miniaturized near field tags and the qIDminiNF reader is
a great tool to retrieve the serial numbers in small
objects and check the originality of parts.
The reader can also operate in “Offline Mode”, allowing to
store EPC codes into the internal memory when the communication links (USB or Bluetooth®) are not
available.
When paired to a smartphone or a tablet, the qIDmini is a cost effective alternative to more expensive
handheld devices.
Designed for mobile operators in indoor or outdoor areas, the qIDmini is ideal for in-store inventory
management, field sales mobility, service and maintenance applications.
Fig. 1.2: qIDmini R1170INF Reader
INTRODUCTION - qIDmini Technical Information Manual 8
The reader is available in ETSI, FCC, ARIB or SRRC version (see § Ordering Options page 12):
865.600÷867.600 MHz (ETSI EN 302 208 v. 1.4.1) (Mod. R1170IEHIDP, R1170IEAPLP and
R1170IENFHP)
902÷928 MHz (FCC part 15.247) (Mod. R1170IUHIDP, R1170IUAPLP and R1170IUNFHP)
920.625÷924.375 MHz (SRRC RFID national standards) (Mod. R1170IUNFHD –OPT. WPE1170NFACN)
920.4÷923.4 MHz (ARIB T107 RFID national standards) (Mod. R1170IJHIDP and R1170IJAPLP)
The reader is available in two models: APPLE or HID (see § Ordering Options page 12):
APPLE model
EASY2RD profile: the reader can be connected to all the devices supporting the Bluetooth
SPP profile and to iOS devices.
HID profile: not supported.
HID model
EASY2RD profile: the reader can be connected to all the devices supporting the Bluetooth
SPP profile but not to iOS devices.
HID profile: the reader can be connected to all the devices supporting the Bluetooth HID
profile (keyboard emulation), including iOS devices.
OFFLINE profile: in case of no communication link available, the reader works in offline mode.
The operator goes around collecting codes and then connects the reader to the cable or,
better, to the docking station in order to download the data. Stored data can be downloaded
to any device except for iOS devices.
BUFFER profile: the reader is Bluetooth connected to the host and executes inventories of
tags on button press and stores the EPCs into the internal buffer, even in case of temporary
missing of Bluetooth communication. When the Bluetooth link is up, the reader can send the
buffered data if requested by the host. Stored data can be downloaded to any device except
for iOS devices.
For more information about EASY2RD, HID, OFFLINE and BUFFER profiles, please refer to § PROFILE
paragraph page 56.

Charging
The qIDmini R1170I is supplied with an USB cable and a power supply for charging (see § Accessories page
11).
When you put the reader in charge, the display powers up and shows the blinking charge indicator. The
fixed indication "charge 100%" informs you that the charging is complete.
Warning:EMPTY BATTERY CONDITION
In case that the battery is fully discharged, the display may not turn on when the charger is
connected. In this case you have to leave the reader connected to the charger for at least 5
minutes, then disconnect the USB cable, perform the reset procedure (see § RESET THE
QIDMINI READER page 53), switch off the reader by pressing the power button and then
connect the USB cable again.
USB connector
A micro USB Type B socket connector is located in the bottom side of qIDmini R1170I and can be used to
connect the reader to an USB host port or to an AC/DC battery charger.
