Features Benefits

RFID Solutions

Dual Antennas allow near field and far field reads

Ability to perform accurate encoding

Dual Antenna capability allows for near and far RFID readsThe Dual Antenna capability is a first in the market that allows “far field” reads at up to 10 feet away from the material, but also, under program control the exclusive near field antenna can be selected to perform isolated carton reads. For the first time, tag encoding can be accurately performed with a hand held every time. The far field antenna is circularly polarized to read tags in any orientation.LCD display and activity lights are under program control

Power over Ethernet for power and data to standard POE switches

Minimal infrastructure costs and direct connect to networks

Encoding can be performed on any tag

Allows tagging of even RFID challenged metal displays

2x24 LCD display with 3 Indicator lights

Provides user programmability for prompting and display

Product life and maintainability is improved

Ruggedized case and cabling.

GEN2 validation in firmware provides no additional application requirements

“Out of the Box” usability for GEN2 validation applications

The hand held provides 3 activity lights and a 2x24 backlit LCD display to allow operator feedback and prompting from the application. All activity lights, trigger control, antenna control and reader filtering are available under user program control.

Without any external programming, the hand held has built into firmware the decoding algorithms for all EPCglobal tag formats and displays the 96 value encoded in Hex and also in URI format. This can be used as a standalone tag verifier for many applicationsExpandable cable extends up to 15 feet.

The hand held is provided with a high impact shell suitable for industrial environments. Additionally a hanger is supplied to allow it to be hung near the workstation when not needed.

Dual Antenna, 1 watt tethered hand held reader

24 x 7 x 365 Support

For pallet reads and requirements where the hand held needs to be carried to the area to perform reading, a retractable cable is supplied for the utmost in flexibility. Power is delivered to the unit through Power Over Ethernet to simplify the interconnect to the hand held.
