Vega UHF Reader

The Vega UHF reader brings the technology and performance of the M5e module with the sturdyness of an industrial encapsulation in only one reader, projected to withstand the most severe environments, it is ideal for vehicular application, where the reader is installed in the vehicle (In Vehicle Reader model).

Resources

The Vega readers works in UHF (Ultra High Frequency), reads and writes EPC Gen2 tags. It is possible to manage up to 3 independent monostatic antennas, forming up to 3 reading zones with only one reader.
It has serial RS-232 communication and its serial command/answer protocol with CRC-16 error verification is extremely safe and stable for industrial and vehicular applications.
With its compact dimensions, it can be installed in small places or of difficult reach.
Has eletronic protection circuit against tension, current and tension variation, which normally happen during installation on vehicles.
