Frequently Asked Questions
What are the key operating modes supported by the Zebra WhereTag IV?
The WhereTag IV supports three operating modes: ISO/IEC 24730-2 mode for high-precision industrial and outdoor applications, Cisco Compatible Extensions (CCX) mode for front office environments, and multimode operation that combines both. This programmable flexibility allows you to optimize performance based on your specific location requirements and infrastructure.
How long does the battery last in the WhereTag IV?
Battery life varies by operating mode: up to 7 years in ISO/IEC 24730-2 mode and up to 5 years in CCX and multimode operations. The tag uses Direct Sequence Spread Spectrum (DSSS) technology operating in the 2.4 GHz frequency band to maximize both range and battery efficiency.
Can the WhereTag IV be used in hazardous environments?
Yes, an Intrinsically Safe (IS) version of the WhereTag IV is available for hazardous and explosive environments. The WhereTag IV IS is certified to be safe for Class 1, Division 1, Groups A-D, T6 environments, making it suitable for demanding industrial applications.
How does the WhereTag IV integrate with WherePort exciters?
The WhereTag IV can be triggered by low frequency magnetic signals from a WherePort exciter from a distance of up to 7.5 meters. This capability allows WherePorts to modify the pre-programmed blink rate, indicate proximity to a specific location, and trigger changes between ISO/IEC 24730-2 mode, Wi-Fi mode (CCX compatible), or multimode operation.
What transmission rate options are available for the WhereTag IV?
The WhereTag IV can be programmed to transmit RF signals at configurable rates ranging from 4 seconds to multiple hours, allowing you to balance location accuracy with battery life based on your application requirements. Power output is also configurable to match your specific environment.
What standards does the Zebra WhereTag IV comply with?
The WhereTag IV is compliant with both the ISO/IEC 24730-2 RTLS standard and Cisco Compatible Extensions (CCX) for 802.11 asset tags. This dual compliance enables enterprise-wide tracking of assets, personnel, and work-in-progress transactions across industrial, outdoor, and front office environments.
