Description
The ActiveTag™ Serial Receiver is a network-capable general-purpose receiver that detects tag signals, converts them into data, and forwards the information to a controller or host application.
The -IP Network Receiver adds a LAN interface to the basic serial receiver to provide Ethernet connectivity across the enterprise LAN/WAN. Any number of receivers can be networked throughout multiple facilities to enable enterprise-wide monitoring and tracking of assets, personnel and other mission-critical resources.
The receiver processes and fi lters information received from any tag, whether automatically activated at a control point (via the ActiveTag™ Activator), or when triggered by a beacon timer, sensor or alarm event. Tag transmissions can be received at a distance of about 35 feet in a typical offi ce environment, with greater distances achievable in open air, line-of-sight applications. The receiver can be confi gured with an optional Wiegand output for ease of integration with existing access control and alarm systems.
The -S serial receiver supports industry standard 26-Bit Wiegand or an RS-232 serial port for ease of interface to virtually any control panel on the market. The -IP version supports Ethernet network communications via TCP/IP protocol. Both receivers can be confi gured and controlled remotely via Hyper Terminal or commands issued from a software application program.
Features
Open Architecture - connects directly to host application via industry standard 26-Bit Wiegand, RS-232 or TCP/IP network interface
Plug and Play - self-contained unit includes receiver, antenna, power transformer, connectors and built-in TCP/IP (-IP version only)
Ease of Integration - Wiegand output allows for integration with virtually any access control, alarm panel or a PLC
Wide Area Coverage - omni-directional read distance of about 35 feet in a typical offi ce environment*
Tag Read Filtering - independent, user-confi gurable lists for both Wiegand and serial/IP outputs limit reporting of tag reads for up to 34 control points and/or status indicators
