Product Overview
The Intermec IF5 is a fixed “smart” reader that filters information from tags, monitors external sensors and controls audible/visual indicators, without the expense, and potential point of failure of a separate server “box”, required by other RFID scanning solutions. As with all Intermec reader products, the IF5 both reads and writes to RFID tags.Filtering incoming tag data means sending only pertinent information upstream to the host. The IF5 filters, manages and acts upon the data read from tags according to application parameters, all made possible by internal Java or Java Script applications. The Java application can also be programmed to change the configuration parameters of the IF5 in response to new incoming data from a tag or peripheral device. For example, a dock door portal – mounted IF5 reader can be programmed to scan the “destination” field on all tags passing through, and subsequently flash a red beacon light for the fork lift driver if an item is about to be incorrectly loaded.
The IF5 reader includes powered general purpose input/output (GPIO) circuitry, which allows direct monitoring and/or controlling of peripherals such as presence detectors and signal lights without requiring extra devices and power supplies to facilitate the connection.
