E1150 Mobile Reader
Once activated, the Buered Tag View (Figure 11) gives the option to download the E1150’s tag data buer.
Selecting the Buered button returns the amount of tags in the buer. By inputting a requested tag buer
number in the field below Get Log #, it is possible to retrieve a specific buered tag read. Get All returns all
tags in the buer, while Erase All empties the tag buer. Save allows the current displayed tag buer to be
saved to a log file, and Close closes the tag buer window.
