The Long-Range Reader/Writer (LRP2000) can read multiple tags placed on items stacked on a pallet to a height of two metres off the ground at a distance of up to one and a half metres. Item level tracking is now a reality through out the supply chain. This system provides the RFID user community the environmental benefits associated with using the universally accepted ISO15693 standard at 13.56 MHz, regardless of whether the items are liquid based or located at the center of a palletized stack. The ISO 15693 standard enables reader/writers and RFID labels from multiple suppliers to be interoperable, protecting against proprietary solutions. In conforming to both FCC and CE, the pass-through system can be used throughout Europe, North America and other regions of the world, which is a must for Multi-National Corporations.

Two LRP2000 antennas can be connected together to complete a 'gate' configuration resulting in a two and a half metre wide reading distance between the two opposing antennas. Up to four LRP2000 antennas can be networked together for dock door applications. This technology provides the solution to numerous warehouse and logistical problems. In the case of an order picking operation, all items required to fill an order can be written to a master tag located on the pallet. After the items are picked, their RFID labels can then be read and compared to the master tag ( or compared to an electronic shipping manifest). As the forklift passes through the dock door, if the items do not match their intended list, immediately a light or alarm can be triggered to notify those concerned.

The industrial strength Antenna enclosure is rated to be water resistant and dust proof for indoor and outdoor applications. The controller box is rated IP66 and is equipped with four input and output control lines. Sensors, light towers and photo eye switches can be directly hooked up to the LRP controller greatly reducing wiring installations to the host PC/PLC.
