IH25 Bluetooth UHF RFID Reader 1
CHAPTER
1INTRODUCTION
The IH25 UHF RFID Reader provides Ultra High Frequency (UHF) Radio
Frequency Identification (RFID) connected to a mobile terminal. The unit can
read and write to bar code, QR code and UHF RFID tags.
IH25 Features

2 IH25 Bluetooth UHF RFID Reader
Battery Installation
The battery is charged using a docking station and therefore is unlikely to need to
be changed once installed.
Install the battery before using the reader for the first time.
1. To access the battery compartment, remove the battery cover screws and then
the battery cover.
2. Insert the battery into the battery compartment.
3. Attach the battery cover and tighten the screws. Note that the torque should
be 3.5kg.f.

IH25 Bluetooth UHF RFID Reader 3
Charging
To comply with international shipping regulations, the battery is discharged to
less than 30% of their maximum capacity. It is therefore recommended that
you fully charge the battery before using the reader for the first time.
To charge the reader, use the USB cable + AC charge adapter （Honeywell
recommended）or a docking station.
1. Attach the battery cover. Make sure that the cover clicks into place.
2. Attach the handle. Make sure that the handle clicks into place.

4 IH25 Bluetooth UHF RFID Reader
Docking Station Charge
Use the one slot or four-slot docking station to charge IH25 and the mobile terminal.
Note: when charging, make sure the charging indicator is always on.

IH25 Bluetooth UHF RFID Reader 5
Fitting / Unloading Device Case and Attaching
Device
1. Insert the mobile terminal into the bracket and press it down.
Note: When installing the bracket, pay attention to the angle and strength so as
not to damage the product.
2. Check the bracket on the bottom of the bracket and the socket on the reader are
clean and free from dirt or debris.
3. Align the bracket with the socket, ensuring that it is parallel, and press the two
parts together firmly until they click into place.

4. Unload the mobile terminal: place the IH25 on the table or hold it at the sides with
both hands, push the buckle out with your thumbs, and lift the terminal out with
your index finger.
5. Unload the bracket: hold the handle with one hand and lift it from the side of the
bracket with the other hand.

IH25 Bluetooth UHF RFID Reader 7
Reading RFID Tags
1. Turn on power to the reader and it beeps one time.
2. Power on the mobile terminal and launch BCC RFID APP. Tap on the right top
corner of Connect screen and select Barcode Way and scan the QR code on the
label attached at the bottom of the reader’s main body.
3. Press MODE button and release within 3 seconds to check IH25’s operation mode.
If RFID LED lights up, it means IH25 works in RFID mode; If 1D/2D LED lights up,
it means IH25 works in Barcode mode. Press and hold the MODE button for at
least 3 seconds to switch to RFID mode.
4. Press the trigger button to read tags.
Note
•The Barcode Way is only supported by Honeywell’s mobile device. Please refer
to another way of connection on page 11.
•Make sure to switch on the Bluetooth function and Location (Settings
Security & locationLocation) on mobile before connecting. Otherwise, the
connection fails all the time.
•RFID tags can be read when they are in range. The range (typically 0.2ft—20ft)
at which a tag can be read depends on the tag type and size and the number of
tags in the field.

8 IH25 Bluetooth UHF RFID Reader
MODE Button and Status Indicators
Press the MODE button to light on the current mode light.
Release the button within 3 seconds, the mode light is off.
Press and hold the MODE button for at least 3 seconds to
switch between 1D/2D and RFID mode and the current mode
light is on. Release the button, the current mode light is off.
Solid amber: Charging
Solid green: Fully charged
Red flash/ Green and amber flash alternately: Charge error
Solid red: Battery low warning (<20% capacity remaining.)
Blue slow flash: Bluetooth disconnected (two beeps when
disconnect from PDA)
Solid blue: Bluetooth connected (one beep when
connected successfully)

CHAPTER
2BccRFID MOBILE APPLICATION
FOR ANDROID
Overview
This chapter describes the BccRFID Mobile Application for Android that can be
used with the IH25.
This application should run on Android mobile devices and demonstrates IH25
functions and tag operation. It should allow the user to navigate to all screens
whether or not the device is connected to the IH25 reader and when the
inventory/locate operation is in progress.
Note: The content of this chapter is only based on the demo APP demonstrating
the basic RFID function of IH25. Customer should eventually integrate the RFID
SDK into the source code of their own APP to fully implement the function. For
how to get the demo APP and SDK files, ask local sales staff for help.
Using the BccRFID Mobile Application for Android
To use this application for RFID operations:
1. Ensure the BccRFID Mobile Application for Android is installed on the Android
mobile device.
2. Ensure the IH25 is in RFID mode.
3. Launch the BccRFID Mobile Application for Android on the mobile device.
Basic Operation
The following will guide you how to use the BccRFID application in a very easy
way.
