5.0 APPLICATION DEVELOPMENT
A software library is available for free download upon purchase of the DLP-RFID1 that allows reading the
serial number (UID/SID) of a single transponder tag, access to the reader’s permanent serial number and
control of the integrated pass/fail beeper. The library is designed to work with any Windows programming
language that supports COM objects. Demonstration software is also included that shows how to use the
library in Visual C++ and Visual Basic programming languages.
A Professional Developer’s Library is also available as a separate purchase that allows for the reading of
multiple tags, writing to and reading from the available user memory and other available features of the
tags and DLP-RFID1 reader.
