About the Solution
Based on RF Code's active RFID hardware and software technology, the new tag solution is used to control any of the RF Code M-Series or R-Series tags engineered to:
- Wake up, which causes the tag to begin regular beacon interval
- Beacon now, which triggers the tag to immediately beacon
- Sleep, which puts the tag into a sleep state to prevent the tag from beaconing
The A600 Tag Controller, powered through a USB connector, and the Tag Controller Utility, which communicate to an RF Code reader, together control the tags' beaconing "states." An audible "beep" indicates that the Tag Controller has caused the tag to wake, beacon or go to sleep. The Tag Controller can be used in a "Stand-alone" scenario where the utility has no communication with a fixed or mobile reader and all input data is entered manually into the application. It can also be used in a "Reader-assisted" scenario where the utility communications with a fixed or mobile reader to make the "flow" much more automatic.
