The EX3220 is an LF RFID tag exciter that plays a key role in AeroScout RTLS deployments. It is used to establish when assets and personnel are in the immediate vicinity of the exciter for use cases such as emergency mustering.
Features
Real-time chokepoint detection
Trigger events and alerts
Precise visibility of business processes
Leverage existing Wi-Fi
Supports offline condition monitoring
The EX3220 exciter transmits low frequency (LF) signals to trigger AeroScout active RFID Tags as they pass through a chokepoint or as they approach the exciter. The tags in turn transmit messages to compatible Wi-Fi access points in the tag’s signal range. In the MobileView software system, this confirms that a tagged asset has passed through a gate, doorway, or some other well-defined area. In this way, you can identify when personnel reach an emergency muster point, enter a dangerous area, or travel between different locations.
Some examples of applications:
Automatic inventory management
Logistics organisations can update inventory records by automatically determining which assets are within the respective defined areas, thus ensuring real-time knowledge of inventory levels without manual checks or barcode scanning.
Process control
Manufacturing companies can track the location of equipment, carriers, and even the work-in-process (WIP) inventory during a production cycle. This provides a real-time view of production items, both in terms of type and quantity, which have progressed through each step in the process, thus streamlining the manufacturing operations.
