Term Description
Antenna Power Boost The extra ID option (licensed) that comes with the B-version V-pack, to enable the
extra power option of the transmitter, which gives a boost to the antenna output.
Behavior component (BC) The behavior of a standard hardware component and / or the total management
system, set by Velos software.
CAN bus Controller Area Network. A standard serial bus to connect electronic controllers and to
allow the controllers to communicate with each other.
DHCP Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol
Ethernet Network communication standard for PCs in a LAN
FDX Full Duplex is a bidirectional data communication system, where at both ends data
signals are sent and received at the same time.
HDX Half Duplex is a bidirectional data communication system, where data signals are sent

RSSI The Received Signal Strength Indication is an indication of the signal strength received
by the receiver. The higher the RSSI value, the stronger the signal.
Squelch The traditional squelch circuit is an audio switch controlled by the radio signal level
using a fixed or manually adjustable threshold (level). When the received signal
strength falls below this, the receiver is muted. When the VP1007-B reads the tag with
an RSSI level below this threshold, the tag will not be read.
Switch (connection box) Device that connects the VPUs to a PC (network)
