DESCRIPTION:TagTracker 2 Wireless is a rugged hand-held RFID reader that stands up to the rigors of
field use.It’s
tough casing can withstand repeated blows and drops - even being run over by a
pick-up truck!The
reader includes International Standards Organization (ISO)-compliant RFID
electronics as well as wireless (no cables) communications.
The TagTracker reader
reads an RFID tag and communicates with a base station connected to a computer
that can be located up to ¼ mile away. The base station can be connected to a
desktop or laptop computer via a USB port (which requires additional drivers
to be installed. The software for this installation is included with the
shipment when USB port is specified) or a serial cable (Older model computers
use serial cables for plug 'n' play). The reader can also read to a scalehead
but is not compatible with a PDA. The TagTracker 2 Wireless Reader reads full-duplex or
half-duplex tags.
With TagTracker there are no
mechanical switches to trigger an RFID read, which means nothing to wear out. Blocking the infrared
beam at the trigger activates reading of an RFID tag. Reader “ENERGIZES” tag,
which “ECHOES” back its number to uniquely identifiy the animal no matter
where it goes.
Price includes paddle reader, base station, rechargeable
battery and battery charger. (Accessories can be purchased separately.)
