The Alien ALR-F800-X Series Enterprise RFID reader with Emissary is the industry’s first dynamic reader and peripheral management platform. It simplifies RFID infrastructure, installation, operations, and maintenance by combining an enterprise RFID reader and Edge service to a multiple- reader visualization and management platform.

What is Emissary?

Emissary allows visualization of readers, antennas, and peripherals such as traditional I/O devices (light stacks, motion sensors, door switches, etc.) into an easy to use graphic user interface (GUI). It also allows configuration and support of additional readers and read points without the need of a traditional Edge Server. All built in to the ALR-F800-X with no extra cost, downloads, installation, or setup.

The Alien ALR-F800-X with Emissary RFID reader allows facilities to simplify multi-reader workflow creation and reduces overall cost of deployment and on-going maintenance. The reader serves as both a middleware and an application host. By processing data elements at the source, the value of the data is exponentially increased, and the individual read points can be examined and evaluated in real time. The data captured can enable detailed analytics that play a vital role in critical decision making.

Features:

• Reader and multiple reader configuration and management in one device
• Logical/ user friendly location naming
• Built in common activities (ex: read tag, turn on light, and send data)
• Flexibility to change workflow
• Automatic interpretation of the correct tag data standard when tags are read
• Manage tag read data (reports) can be transferred to the cloud or server (minimizing data transferred)

The ALR-F800-X with Emissary brings in the benefits to manage multiple readers and read points from a single Emissary unit, reduce overall cost of deployment, on going maintenance, flexible workflow, and simplified IT integration. With 3 configurations of the ALR-F800 RFID reader to choose from for any application size and budget requirements that your business may need.

Alien Readers are built for challenging environments that commonly appear in the real world. Robust, tough, and high-performing for even the most challenging conditions. Alien readers come with advanced filtering and intelligence which benefits users with less network traffic, fewer additional pieces of network equipment, lower setup, and lower maintenance costs.

The ALR-F800 is Alien’s self-optimizing enterprise RFID reader. With a discrete architecture that intelligently adapts and configures based on its environment. The ALR-F800 has the industry’s best Power over Ethernet transmit power and performance. The ALR-F800 has the flexibility for system enhancements and future proofing such as the industry standard MicroSD and USB slots for adding memory along with additional capabilities such as Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and cellular.

ALR-F800 Features:

• Global EPC Gen 2 platform.
• DSA (Dynamic Self-Adapting) real-time read optimization.
• Alien GateScape ease-of-use.
• Power source agnostic and auto-switching.
• Automatic inventory optimization.
• Feature-rich Alien Reader Protocol.
• Dynamic Authentication of Higgs ICs.
• Exceptional sensitivity and performance.
• Automode, with on-board state machine.
• High read rates for demanding applications.
• Enhanced noise rejection for reliable data capture.
• RSSI & speed filters.
• Easy RFID software integration.
• Easily configurable and upgradable.
• Industrial, installation-friendly I/O connector.
• Antenna reflection cancellation optimization.
• Supports extended / custom Higgs IC features.
• Auto “Seek” function for low duty cycle applications.
• RoHS EU 2002/95/EC compliant.
• Plenum Rated (EAHS) per UL 2043.

The ALR-F800-X builds on the ALR-F800 with a revolutionary solution that simplifies RFID infrastructure installation, operations, and maintenance. Combines an Enterprise RFID reader and edge service to provide multiple-reader visualization and management. The ALR-F800-X comes with emissary which is Alien’s multi-reader configuration, management, and work-flow description solution. This means users can create names for each reader instead of using the standard serial number that a RFID reader normally identifies by. Making the management of multiple readers easy.

ALR-F800-X Features:

• Reader + Multiple Reader Configuration and Management in one device.
• Class leading Global EPC Gen 2 4-port RFID Reader.
• Same footprint as Alien’s ALR-F800 UHF Enterprise Reader.
• Built in handling of common chores.
• DSA (Dynamic Self-Adapting) real-time read optimization.
• Power source agnostic and auto-switching.
• Feature-rich Alien Reader Protocol.
• Dynamic Authentication of Higgs ICs.
• Exceptional sensitivity and performance.
• Automode, with on-board state machine.
• RoHS EU 2002/95/EC compliant.
• Plenum Rated (EAHS) per UL 2043.
