Chapter 3 — Developing and Using RFID Applications
IF61 Fixed Reader User’s Manual 59
IF61 JavaScript Support
The IF61 supports applications developed with JavaScript.
Because JavaScript RFID applications can generally be written
quickly, JavaScript is an ideal tool for creating demonstration or
proof-of-concept applications as well as production RFID
software.
You can configure the IF61 to auto-start a JavaScript application
residing on the IF61 or on a remote server. The IF61 JavaScript
implementation includes built-in objects that provide access to
the BRI and the TCP, HTTP, SQL, and XML interfaces.
For help with running a JavaScript file at boot time, see
“Configuring a JavaScript File to Auto-Run at Boot Time” on
page 77.
