Android
The SAM Mobile Android app will work on any Android device running Android OS 4.4 or better. The SAM Mobile app will control barcode and RFID functions for multiple devices. SAM Mobile Android supports:
- Chainway RF72
- Alien ALR-H450
- TSL Sled Readers
- Atid AT911
- Invengo X-1003
- Native Android Barcode/NFC
SAM Mobile on android connects directly to the application server through a defined URL. This establishes a direct SSL communication between the RFID Reader client and the server for instantaneous syncing of data in real time. There are five main screens in use by the application: Find, View, Inventory, Settings and Account.
The underlying Android device connects to the internet via WIFI, but if a direct Ethernet connection is needed, a device can be supplied that supports connecting to the network via an Ethernet adapter. If internet connection isn’t available via WIFI or Ethernet at the time of scanning and inventorying, SAM Mobile has the ability to work off the data while offline and sync the data to the server at a time a connection is established. This workflow is detailed in the Sync’ing Your Device section.
