In order for RFID readers to do more than
simply read and act as a data conduit, they
need processing speed and ample memory.
With the powerful combination of an Intel
Celeron M 600 MHz processor and up to
1 GB of optional memory, the Intermec™
IF61 Enterprise Reader is the smartest
RFID reader available, capable of running
complex RFID applications, delivering
faster processing and localized intelligence.
When the host system or electrical power
fails, the ample storage resources, and
“store and forward” capabilities of the
IF61 ensure that data won’t be lost, even
in the highest tag volume environments.
In fact, with the optional spinning drive
installed, the IF61 can store over 6
billion EPC tags. When applications are
mission critical and “re-work” isn’t an
option, the IF61 can be counted on.
By hosting applications written in Java,
JavaScript or C# .Net., the IF61 filters,
stores and manipulates information
from tags and sends it to a server in a
required format, while monitoring external
sensors and controlling audible and visual
indicators. For example, the IF61 can be
programmed to store a day’s worth of
shipping manifests, compare the pallet
tags it reads against the manifests in its
memory, and drive a peripheral device
to issue a visual or audible signal of a
correctly or incorrectly loaded pallet.
The IF61 can perform all of these tasks
without the extra expense, and potential
point of failure, of a separate industrial
PC often required by other RFID reading
solutions. Additionally, the IF61 includes
powered general purpose input/output
(GPIO) circuitry, which allows direct
monitoring and/or controlling of peripherals
such as presence detectors and signal
lights without requiring extra devices and
power supplies to facilitate the connection.
The IF61 is a Smart RFID Reader capable
of embedding enterprise-class edge server
software in lieu of requiring an on-premise
PC. Advanced network services built into
the IF61 greatly facilitates enterprise
architects in configuring a highly secure,
scalable, and reliable RFID infrastructure.
The IF61 is the only RFID reader to provide
a localized workbench to load, edit and
run JavaScript as a standard feature.
The workbench allows programmers to
test business logic directly on the reader,
enabling faster application development
while utilizing fewer resources.
SmartSystems™ Foundation, standard
on the IF61, provides a single, convenient
console for quick set-up and configuration
of all of the settings contained in the
device. Administrators can change device
settings, send firmware upgrades, update
software applications, and execute other
changes directly from the console to
save time and significantly cut costs.
