Scirocco IRID Tag Readers

Read and write ID Tags and Data Tags at 2-3 metres in any conditions

Scirocco readers are designed for easy installation. . All readers connect via RS232/485 or TCP/IP, are powered by 10–30 Vdc, are fastened with an M8 bolt and are sealed against dust and water. Use with Energisers (infrared lamps) to read tags at 3 metres

R10 Mistral reader/writer
Mainly designed for long-range reading of energizer-powered tags, the R10 can also independently energize, read and write tags at moderate distance. The receiver’s photo detector has a power lens for maximized reading range.

• 3 m reading with energizer
• 40 cm reading with built in LEDs
• 20 cm writing
• 30° field of view at 50 % range
• 1.5 W power consumption

E65/E70 Energisers
Energizers give longer reading ranges and/or higher passage speeds than reader LEDs achieve. Energizers need not be next to readers because the tags are effective over a wide angular area of incoming light, The rated life of the lamp is more than five years when operated with the Scirocco A32 low-drive transformer,

• 38° beam
• Standard halogen lamp
• Anti-glaring filter (E70)
• Weather protected design
• Bracket and power cable included

R11 ‘Mezzo’ reader/writer with enegrising leds
Similar to the R10, the R11 has a  bank of LEDs to provide IR energy for reading and writing Scirocco IRID tags at large distance. Two photo detectors make the reading zone slightly elliptical,  maximizing the time signals from a passing tag are received.

• 2 m reading
• 3 m reading with energizer
• 1.2 m writing
• 1.8 m writing with energizer
• 45° field of view at 50 % range
• 6 W searching
• 18 W reading

Reader R12 ‘Levanto’ reader
Similar to the R11 enhanced reader/writer, the R12 has extra process control interfaces:

• Mag-stripe
• Wiegand
• 2 + 2 parallel I/O ports and built-in relay, configurable for read and write trigger functions.

Reader R60 ‘Libeccio’ portable reader
The R60 ‘Libeccio’ is compact flash card reader enabling PDAs to read and write Scirocco IRID tags. The Type 1CF card fits Type 1 and Type 2 CF slots. Power consumption is negligible in most cases. needing about the same power as the PDA’s back-lit display to to read and write tags. In triggered mode, consumption is even lower.

A PDA software suite, called Neptune, Designed to operate with Microsoft Windows Mobile 5.0 or later and OpenNET Compact Framework, Neptune software features reading and writing of Scirocco IRID tags in ASCII or Hexadecimal formats, time stamped tag records, custom viewing of user data blocks, saving of a tag record log in standard CSV format, and other functions defined by ST protocol such as tag locking/unlocking and encrypting.
