Introduction
The EX5210R Rugged Exciter is a component of the STANLEY Healthcare suite of
enterprise-level visibility solutions based on standard Wi-Fi wireless
communications for location- based applications. The EX5210R Exciter is
designed for outdoor mounting, providing robust and sophisticated RFID
detection capabilities.
The EX5210R Exciter triggers tags as they pass through a chokepoint or as they
approach the Exciter. Tags in turn transmit a message to either the AeroScout
Location Receivers or to compatible Access Points within range. The Exciter can
activate or deactivate tags, program them, or even instruct the tags to operate
in a specific way (for example, to blink). This provides instant acknowledgment
that a tagged asset has passed through a gate, doorway, or other specifically
defined area. The detection capabilities of the EX5210R Exciter combined with
the location features of the AeroScout Location Engine, to make the STANLEY
Healthcare suite the most sophisticated enterprise visibility solution, for various
applications.
