2.4 Commissioning preparation

It is mentioned previously that a complete RFID data collection system is 

consisted of reader, electronic tag, antenna, PC system, and reader interface 

software. The detailed descriptions of the specific requirements for each 

component are as follows: 

2.4.1 Personal computer Require

 

CPU: Pentium 4,Clock speed: 2.8G and above

 

Internal storage: 512M Byte and above

 

Hard disk: 500G and above

 

Communication port: 9 pins RS-232, and RJ-45 network port (10/100M)

 

Operating system: Windows 2000(SP3), Windows Server 2003, Windows 

XP(SP2), Windows 7, and Windows 8

2.4.2 Reader interface software

 

RFID reader universal presentation software

 

.NET API , VC and JAVA dynamic link library

For detailed description refer to RFID Reader API Technical Reference 

Manual and RFID Reader Demo Software User Manual.

2.4.3 External antenna

The XC-RF850 has a built-in antenna. We recommend Invengo’s XC-AF11-

A and XC-AF12-A antenna for two antennas application. The XC-AF11-A is a 

linearly polarized antenna and the XC-AF12-A is a circularly polarized antenna. 

The performance specifications of XC-AF11-A are as follows: 

 

Frequency range: 840MHz ~868MHz,902MHz ~928MHz

 

● Voltage Standing Wave Ratio: ≤1.4: 1

 

Gain: >7.15dBi

 

HPBW (H-plane): 60°

 

HPBW (E-plane): 70°

 

Polarization: Linear polarization

 

Relative humidity: 5% ~95%RH
