AeroScout T2u Wi-Fi Ultrasound Tag 

 

T2u Tag Features    

Motion Sensing 

AeroScout T2u Tags contain on-board motion sensors. The motion sensor can be 
configured to trigger alerts. It also enables different transmission intervals for tags when 
they are stationary or in motion – which reduces unnecessary network traffic and 
conserves battery life. 

Call Button Functionality 

An optional call button provides the capability to define events according to button 
pushes – such as for emergency alerting or parts replenishment. The tag can be configured 
to send different data depending on how the button is pressed: different messages can be 
associated with a long push of the button and with short, successive pushes. 

Flexible Mounting and Usage Options 

A wide variety of mounting options are available for AeroScout T2u Tags – screw mounts, 
adhesives, Velcro and tie-wraps, and wrist straps. An optional cradle allows mounting the 
tag on a wide array of assets and in various environments. 

Long Battery Life 

A powerful, replaceable battery provides power for a period of up to 4 years. The Tag 
periodically provides a report on the battery level so that when the battery level runs low, 
it can be replaced efficiently with minimum down time. The AeroScout T2u Tag can also 
be easily deactivated in order to conserve battery power. 

Tag Management 

The T2u Tag can be programmed via a wireless interface using the AeroScout Tag 
Activator. Together with the AeroScout Tag Manager software it allows for easy and 
efficient Tag configuration, activation or deactivation and programming. 

Tag Programmability and Storage 

The T2u Tag can store up to 15 messages of 10 bytes each. These messages can either be 
pre-programmed via the Tag Manager or programmed on the fly by an AeroScout Exciter 
when a tag is in proximity to it. These messages can also be transmitted in addition to the 
standard location messages (the tags can be either configured to transmit one of the 
messages or triggered by an AeroScout Exciter to transmit a specific message).  

Active RFID Functionality 

Using the AeroScout Exciter, the tag sends out specific location reports upon arrival at 
chokepoints or gateways. The tag behavior can also be automatically modified while 
passing through a chokepoint such as a doorway or gate. This includes 
activating/deactivating tags or changing the tags’ transmission rate to accommodate 
different usage patterns.
