Feature List: Support for the Alien Reader Protocol (ARP). This should add support for all previously unsupported Alien devices. Added support for a wider range of antenna power. This is now based on reader capabilities instead of a static range. Added new user settable TID memory bank...

Hi Brandi, Tags can be rewritten as many times as you like. There is no limit to how many times a tag can be reprogrammed with a new EPC value. There is also a way to lock down tags so that they can no longer be rewritten. The only time you can not reprogram the EPC of a tag is if that tag...

Hi Brandi, When trying to read tags it is always important to know as much information about the tag you are trying to read as possible. There are tons of different kinds of tags out there, and many of them have different requirements to get the optimal read range. To help with this, ask...

Hi Jerry, To answer your questions: 1. To configure a security checkout portal you would need to prepopulate a database table with all the ID cards allowed to go through the portal. The next step would be to configure this table as the destination of one of your ClearStream RFID sync...

Polarization refers to the way the RFID signals are emitted from the antenna. A linear polarized antenna emits RFID signals in a straight line on a horizontal or vertical plane. Tag orientation is crucial when using linear polarization. The antenna is only emitting RFID signal on that one...

LLRP (Low Level Reader Protocol) is an interface protocol used to facilitate the communication between software and the hardware reader. It was designed as a means for developers to have a standard method to access multiple readers from different manufacturers, without having to custom develop...
