RFM5110/RFM5111 Quick Start Guide

 

Nordic ID Fixed Smart Reader 

with Axzon ReaderService™

 

 

 

This  document  captures  the  procedure  to  install 

and  use  Axzon’s  ReaderService™  on  a  Nordic  ID 

Fixed Smart Reader, such as the AR62 or AR82. 

ReaderService  runs  as  a  microservice  on  the 

NordicID reader’s software platform and serves two 

important  functions 

  firstly,  it  provides  an 

algorithmic core to aggregate raw sensor data from 

Axzon’s Smart Passive 

Sensors and convert this data 

into  reliable,  actionable  information;  secondly,  it 
provides  an  adaptation  layer  to  deliver  this 
information  to  an  application  entity  through 
standard REST and Message Queue interfaces. The 
application  entity  may  be  on-premise  or  cloud-
based.  

The  software  package  includes  a  lightweight, 
embedded database and a WebUI to enable a quick 

evaluation of Axzon’s sensor performance right 

out 

of the box.  

 

Key Features 

 

Simplifies Application Development for 
Edge Integration
