RFID Within Enterprise Browser

Alberto Vazquez Jan 12, 2018 8:54 AM

Hello,

How can i enable RFID Reading within Enterprise Browser ?

I have a web application and i use Enterprise Browser to access it; within that application I can read Barcodes or RFID tags from all the items; I have noticed that i can only use barcode but not RFID, is there a way i can "turn on" RFID reading inside Enterprise Browser ?

My handheld model is: MC919ZWR

Thanks in Advanced.

Dear Alberto,

Please refer the Enterprise Browser RFID API guide from the below link:
RFID Module - Zebra Technologies TechDocs

Please note Enterprise Browser RFID API is supported only on the below devices:
MC3190Z
MC9190Z

Also note the below stuffs:
Installation: The RFID plug-in package for RhoElements 2.2 SP1 is not is not part of the default installation, but is available as a separate download from the Zebra Technologies Support site. RFID plug-in resources: RFID Plug-in for RhoElements 2.2 SP1 - download from Zebra Support Site (includes release notes, installation instructions and a sample app)

2. Config.xml setting: Once the plug-in is installed, modify the <PreloadLegacyActiveX> parameter in the app's Config.xml file as follows:
<PreloadLegacyActiveX value="1"/>

RFID Sample Application can be downloaded from here.

Thanks & Regards,

  Thank You Abhineet, I appreciate your reply,
  
  I have a Zebra Model MC919ZWR, i do not see that model on the list that you provided me, does that mean RFID cannot be enabled on that device within Enterprise Browser ?
  Also on the release notes, it says that i need to copy the Rho Elements CAB file on a Temp Folder; where do i find this CAB file ? it's not in any of the links that you provided me.
  
  Regards

    Dear Alberto,
    
    Ignore downloading of RhoElements CAB file. Enterprise Browser is already installed where RFID Plug-in I.e. WTG_RFID_PLG.dll need to be placed inside \Program Files\ EnterpriseBrowser\Plugin location in the device.
    
    I cannot guarantee whether EB RFID plug-in will work on MC919ZWR but would suggest to give a try.
    
    Thanks & Regards,
    Abhineet

      Thanks Abhineet,
      
      That didn't work, it's weird since my handheld is RFID capable; is there any other way to get RFID reading within Enterprise Browser? or something Zebra is working on to get this fixed?

        Dear Alberto,
        
        Currently we only support on the above mentioned devices. I will check with PDM and PO regarding the request and will get back to you on the same.
        
        Thanks & Regards,

        Dear Alberto,
        
        I am following up with PDM on the same.
        
        Can you please let us know that on how many devices the deployment need to be done?
        
        Do you have Enterprise Browser license & support contract?
        
        Thanks & Regards,
        Abhineet

        Thank You Abhineet,
        
        As for now i will be using it only on 3 devices, but I will be adding more as i get this issues figured out. Yes we have licenses for our Enterprise Browser. I am not sure about the Support Contract.

        Dear Alberto,
        
        Thanks for the information. I will get back to you on this with some more information once I get the complete feedback from the PDM.
        
        However, I will suggest you to raise a support ticket for RFID issue on MC919ZWR device and our team will assist on the same.
        I strongly feel that EB RFID API should work on this device as this is MC919Z series.
        
        Thanks & Regards,
        Abhineet

        I will create a support ticket and I will also wait for what the PDM teams informs you. Keep me on the loop.

        I hope you might have already got support for RFID on MC919ZWR device.
