Introduction

To transmit data from the RFID tag to the RFID reader, Nokia Mobile
RFID Kit uses the radio frequency of 13.56 MHz, which is the most
widely used globally available frequency for RFID.
■Nokia Xpress-on™ RFID Reader Shell
Nokia Xpress-on™ RFID Reader Shell contains the RFID
reader that enables you to read tags with your Nokia
5140 phone. The RFID reader is located inside the
lower part of the shell (dark area in the picture).
The Xpress-on™ RFID Reader Shell also stores the
Shortcut and RecordData applications, as well as a
Cover browser application. When you install the
Xpress-on™ RFID Reader Shell, the Cover browser
application is automatically downloaded to the
phone, after which you can use it to download the
other two applications.
Both of the Xpress-on™ RFID Reader Shells in Nokia Mobile RFID Kit
contain all three applications.
Note: The Xpress-on™ RFID Reader Shell is only compatible
with the Nokia 5140 phone. Do not try to use it with other
phones. Do not try to open the Xpress-on™ RFID Reader Shell.
The RFID reader in the Xpress-on RFID Reader Shell takes its
power from the phone battery. Note that using the RFID reader
may drain the phone battery faster.
■Shortcut application and RecordData application
The Shortcut and RecordData applications are used for managing tag-
related information and functions in your Nokia 5140 phone.
• The Shortcut application enables you to define functions that
touching a tag will launch in your Nokia 5140 phone.
You can define that when you touch a tag, the phone either makes a
phone call to a predefined number, sends a text message using Short
Message Service (SMS) to a predefined number, or connects to a
predefined web site over a General Packet Radio Service (GPRS)
connection.
