For help, see "Reader-Specific Platform Specifications" on page 118," and the documentation for your Intermec RFID reader. For BRI extensions and commands that are specific to: • NXP tags, see "BRI Extensions for NXP Tags" on page 74. • Fujitsu tags, see "BRI Extensions for Fujitsu Tags" on page 76. • Impinj Monza 4 tags, see "BRI Extensions for Impinj Monza 4 Tags" on page 80. • EM Microelectronics tags, see "BRI Extensions for EM Microelectronics Tags" on page 81.
