Slate R1260I Technical Information Manual
General Information
The Slate (Model R1260I), the new desktop reader of the easy2read© Family, is an UHF multiregional RFID reader with
integrated antenna for short to medium range applications.
The Slate Reader is powered and controlled directly by an USB cable, thus allowing to read EPC Class 1 Gen 2 UHF RFID
tags in an easy desktop environment.
Thanks to its low profile (15 mm) and its size (approximately an A4 page), the Slate reader is the perfect choice for
various applications such as point-of-sales, document tracking, RFID programming stations, access control and so on. It
can be used as a building block for smart shelves and smart displays.
Being compliant with both European and US regulatory environments, the Slate reader allows installations in various
countries worldwide as needed by retailers, forwarders, warehouses and other global organizations.
The core component of the Slate is the new CAEN RFID Quark module, the smallest and lowest power consuming
module available on the market.

Slate R1260I Technical Information Manual
Horizontal Installation:
The Slate can be easily placed on a table for desktop applications affixing the 4 rubber feet to the bottom of the Slate
R1260I to prevent it from sliding.
Vertical Installation:
The Slate can be hanged on the wall (see Fig. 1.4: Slate R1260I Wall mounting).
First of all, use the two small screws (ø 3 mm) to fix the 2 hooks on the Slate.
Then, to hang the Slate on the wall, fix the hooks to the wall using the 2 rawlplugs (ø 4 mm) + screws at a distance of
146 mm each other.
If you want to hang the Slate on a wood panelling, fix the hooks to the wall just using the 2 screws.
