Manual FLR-line

2 Product overview

There are multiple variations within the FLR-line that support different technologies, and upgrade kits that can
upgrade an 8.2 MHz RF installation to UHF RFID later on.

In this document the following abbreviations will be used from here onwards:

'RF technology' is an abbreviation for 8.2 MHz RF technology.
'RFID technology' is an abbreviation for UHF RFID technology.
